They think you're stupid.

it's cool that this is literally just 100% Trump's fault

The real reason the rural US is so red YouTube video by Farm to Taber

Rural politics is modern aristocracy.

The implicit media consensus is that urban voters should not be able to overrule rural voters, but that rural voters should be able to overrule urban voters, an assumption so axiomatic and unquestionable that nobody even understands they're making it.

Even putting aside the jackassery of this hypersensitive pro AI stance, this is just again an instance of the people in charge in this place having no idea of how to run things as professionals - this is exactly how you break shit by trying to behave simultaneously as both standard user and staff.

same, I feel like we're in the cool kids club now 😅

i wasn't using it but it is such unserious site things that access to the Quiet Posters feed, which is part of the functionality the site has advertised on official accounts just broke for 300k people because it runs out of the tech advisor's personal account and he's a thin skinned AI baby

The number of Republicans crashing out about getting nakedly gerrymandered is, unironically, a sign that we need to do more of it. You guys are correct! This shit sucks! Welcome to the party, pals! We can all stop doing it any time you like!

V cool that Trump started the redistricting fight and Iran war and in doing so ushered in a lock for dem house and a global pivot to solar. Please Mr Trump do healthcare next.

He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence

Love this shot of Saturn near the solstice. The rings are casting those shadows on the cloud tops.

ADOBE: welcome to photoshop. what would you like to do. here is an AI tool

ME: rectangle please
ADOBE: sorry but i can only do that in an insane way now. here is a new layer and a vector for some reason

This #EarthDay, we honor not only the land, but the hard working people who nurture it. #WeFeedYou

Este Día de la Tierra honramos no solo la tierra, sino también a las personas trabajadoras que la cuidan. #SoyEsencial

Latest insane Islamophobic legislation comes from Geneva, Switzerland, where new rules dictate that women at public pools must wear, "one-piece or two-piece swimming costumes whose maximum length is above the knees and which leave the arms bare”.

So, women MUST show arms and legs. That's freedom!

one of the best days on social media was in 2021 when trump was banned from every single network. you saw him repeatedly trying to make alts before each one got banned too, like a poster trying to escape a game forum permaban

DC statehood yesterday

The only reason the VA redistricting measure passed is because Dems took the state governor seat in the 2025 election. Spanberger signed the enabling legislation, where Youngkin never would have.

Local elections matter.

If you are unsure you can EITHER get titers checked to find out if you're immune and then get a vaccine if you're not OR you can skip the titer part and just get the vaccine. it won't hurt you to get it even if you're immune. insurance can be picky about what it'll pay for.

I can't help anyone who is so indoctrinated that they really think the world is shitty because it has to be that way. It so clearly doesn't. We're not even talking about political activity in the world. We're talking a basic foundation to be able to say, this shit's not right, it could be better.

Please pass along to folks you know who could benefit from rental assistance!

Substack CEO Hamish McKenzie: "Email is an important distribution channel. It should not be your only one." then he quotes Mills Baker on his team: "I know l've said this a lot, but I cannot emphasize enough that email will continue to change, to become less deterministically reliable as a means for distributing your work; this is a huge part of why we got into the app and feed business, as you may know! You can blame a few things:"

Substack's CEO now trying to scare people into *only* distributing their content through their proprietary app, not email. (The link he posted warns users away from email.) It's not enough that Substack's locking in publishers & readers with "notes" and comments, now they're escalating tactics.
