I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…

The cost per person per hour of TTRPGs is essentially undefeated in entertainment hobbies. A single purchase unlocks limitless hours of play for a group of people.

Right before they invade Gaza City, they murder the most prominent individual who would have reported on it to the world.

Add this martyr to the tally - the most journalists killed in any armed conflict in history.

They seek to hide the truth, by burying the truth-tellers.

Hell is not hot enough.

Headline from nyt of Cuomo resigning from office.

This day in history, an abuser resigned in disgrace. He will never hold such power again. We won’t let him.

Something I wish liberals - and, for that matter, a lot of leftists - would internalize:

The goal is not to out-argue, disprove, fact-check, debate, or point out the inconsistencies or hypocrisies of fascists.

The goal is to defeat them.

yep! unpaywalled:

LA Protesters Aren’t Inviting Violent Authoritarianism, They’re Mobilizing to Stop It Adam Schiff and centrist concern trolls have it completely backward: Trump’s immigration crackdown is the source of pervasive violence.

"The protesters throwing rocks at heavily armed security forces or attempting to damage the vehicles used to kidnap their immigrant neighbors did not introduce violence. They are instead acting in militant community defense." 🔥from @natashalennard.bsky.social theintercept.com/2025/06/09/l...

👏 STOP 👏 GETTING 👏 KETTLED 👏 ON 👏 BRIDGES👏 TOGETHER WE CAN END THE SCOURGE OF COPS TAKE BOTH SIDES OF A BRIDGE AND EVERYONE GETS ARRESTED. DON'T GO ON THE BRIDGE. JUST DON'T GO ON THE BRIDGE. DON'T TRY TO HOLD THE BRIDGE, DON'T TRY TO CROSS THE BRIDGE, NO BRIDGES

MOREOVER, ICE MUST BE DESTROYED

I’m struck by how technical people think expansively when it comes to computers but have zero imagination for thinking about how social and political systems could radically change.

The whole 'Grok is a boer now' thing is very funny, but it also really exposes how every 'AI tool' isn't just passively biased from training data, but actively designed to shape your worldview according to the interests of the billionaires who made them.

Yeah. Both candidates were in favor of this happening. Why is this hard to understand?

Black and white etching-style triptych showing 8 hours for work on the left, 8 hours for rest in the middle, and 8 hours for “what we will” on the right

Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea?

139 years ago today, in Bay View, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 7 workers (including a 13 yo) lost their lives to advance this revolutionary idea.

the "stop doing math" meme except it says "STOP DRIVING CARS". the meme reads: * PEOPLE WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ISOLATED IN CAGES * YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for building ONE MORE LANE * Wanted to travel large distances anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "TRAINS" * "Yes please give me NO GREENERY. Please give me INFINITE PAVEMENT" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged LOOK at what Civil Engineers have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the concrete and asphalt we built for them (This is REAL Civil Infrastructure, done by REAL Civil Engineers): ?

[Image of the infamous I-405 gridlock photo with tens of thousands of cars not moving] "Hello I would like [Image of a graph of global surface temperatures] climate please" They have played us for absolute fools

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

it’s extremely fucked up that rent is due on May Day

It was correct in 2018, it was correct in 2020, it should have happened in 2021, it is correct now

At this point "Abolish ICE and prosecute every officer who helped with deportations" is the moderate path

the US economy and general flow of goods is in exactly this state

if we lived under a rational socioeconomic order, the accelerating progress of machine intelligence and robotics would emancipate humanity from toil

alas, we do not. instead, our system's incentive structure is aligned towards mass immiseration and bourgeois exterminism bsky.app/profile/synt...

in the short term, so-called "AI" is a mechanism for separating hype-chasing investors from their wallets

in the medium term: a tool to proletarianize & impoverish creatives & white-collar professionals

in the long term: a realization of long-held elite dreams of capital accumulation without labor

that's like 2 and a half months of daycare where i live lol

my dobermans exhibit object-mediated communication (flip over bowl = hungry, grab specific toy = play a specific game, tap door with paw = want to go out, etc)

if i don't notice them "talking" they bark to get me to pay attention and then repeat the action while staring at me like i'm an idiot
