Listening to the House Intelligence Committee testimony (and John Radcliffe's performative outrage 🙄) and I feel it hasn't been observed why all of Trumps cabinet members needed a way of communicating where the Commander In Chief couldn't pull the records later. #SignalGate

Literally A.N.Y.O.N.E. who has seen the WhistlinDiesel cybertruck video's absolutely 100% knew that panel recall was coming.
Invincible was awesome as a comic and I almost feel like its better as a cartoon...
I do wonder though if it ever would have happened without the Death of Superman in the 90's.
100%
Anyone else watching the address just to get confirmation if we are invading Canada or Mexico or Greenland or Iceland or New Zealand or all of the above this next week?
Justin Trudeau has had his hot mess moments as a politician but today he knew what to say and how to say it.
And one of those things he said is that our president is behaving like a fucking dumb ass.
I've always understood why people join communes, but never have I ever thought of joining one.
Honestly, if I were still going to my old church there would be anonymous memes taped up randomly in the building...
It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.
I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!
Call me crazy but as an American I don't want my country partnering with Russia so they can swallow up their neighbors...
So that's the last oval office meeting with a foriegn head of state that are gonna have on camera for awhile...
Unless BB or Putin come into town...
Can we have Zelensky as our president instead?
Josh Barro blocked me on Twitter because I kept replying to him with an image of the smart gremlin from Gremlins 2
I was today years old when I found out that police departments across the nation have been taking on cybertrucks for use in their fleets...
Like, not surprised but the unironic "helping with recruitment" angle gives one pause...
You mean the police want to recruit *more* nazis?
I'm Unsurprised.
The old rules of PR and 'controlling the story' don't apply anymore. There needs to be consistent and clear and accessible education and a path forward. Not more book tours from members of congress trying to convince people that neoliberalism hasn't actually been a problem.
Pull resources and show how you are being 'for the people' in a clear and dedicated way and be clear about what the issues are, in your party, at the local level, the national level and from the opposition.
Provide a historical record that you can be later graded on.
Second, pull all your people together publicly, from governors to senators, and make it clear that compliance is leading to a day by day decline, and get a pledge, and dedicated plans per representative, what they are going to do. Publish that shit and market the hell out of it.
It's interesting seeing the Democrat leadership struggling with messaging and worried they have been 'too far left'.
First, shame the shit out of your own personal billionaires and big dollar contributors in the public square. Draw the line connecting unfettered wealth and fascism.
I haven't seen Yellowjackets but my retired fathers unprompted summary of the last few seasons of the show was absolutely fascinating...
Omg. ConAir II.
But it's an ICE flight.
If done right it could be an absolutely amazing piece of satire.
It's interesting reading Ray Bradbury again... particularly the short story The Fox and the Forest... thinking of Ellison, Silverberg, Butler, Guin. Delany.
All of the post WWII/anti-facism inspired science fiction.
Somewhere we lost our caution regarding the state and the grip of strong men...
Zip Recruiter cross promoting with Severance is a reeaallyyy weird look...
But I get the feeling that Dan Erickson and Ben Stiller are chaos monsters and decided to keep themselves quiet when it was pitched by corporate...
Long Live Wil Wheaton!!!
