“There’s just a gigantic amount of people that need to be made fun of that haven’t been touched yet." The Onion CEO @bencollins.bsky.social, a Mass. native, on why the satirical news site kept fighting to take over Infowars. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/04/22/b...
Listen, they are building concentration camps and threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people. There is not a single remotely legal tactic that is impermissible when it comes to stopping them.
They think you're stupid.
Thought that maybe, just maybe, @seattletimes.com would do the right thing and slip a bare-minimum credit into their piece on the story I broke, including my screenshot of the IG story, shortly before it vanished.
Nah. They don't care. Still pretending they got the story on their own.
Reminder that the WaPo and most legacy newspapers are owned by right wing billionaires and serve Republican agendas.
Alternatives in the thread!
Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “The Texas gerrymander freak out. What’s happening in Texas is not a threat to democracy.”
Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss. The redistricting scheme was always a power grab by Democrats. Voters went along with it.”
The Washington Post Editorial Board was fine with Republicans gerrymandering in Texas.
But when Democrats responded in Virginia, it’s a “power grab” that “plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss.”
the fascists have been lying, cheating and changing the rules to their benefit for years. turnabout isn't just fair play, it's the only way to maintain some semblance of a civil society.
Reports indicate Elon Musk controls a secretive network of over 90 companies and entities so he can hide how he spends his money.
No wonder he wanted the Trump admin to “look into” the Corporate Transparency Act, which would have regulated those companies.
Now they want to ARREST us if they don’t approve of what we are WEARING, the misogyny does not stop

Science says act fast on climate
Economics say act fast on climate
Delaying climate action destroys future prosperity for present-day pollution.
Solar, wind, storage, EVs all beating fossil fuels on cost and scale
Now it’s about speed
What we still lack is resolve

PSA to anyone remotely considering Tucker's "apology".
Worth noting how many organizations like SPLC neutered themselves and the work that they do, trying to avoid this very moment. Especially since Trump won again. But MAGA was always going to come for them. And eventually, we'll all be targets. No matter how much we tried to remain nonpartisan, etc.
Womp womp

Fuck cancer
I owe a lot of the start to my career to the legacy Michael Turner left behind at Aspen Comics.

There’s something mentally wrong with the President of the United States.
