I talk and talk and talk about how anticommunism is deeply baked into the American psyche, and still, at a time when old people and sick people and disabled people are having their lives snuffed out in Cuba because of a blockade this country imposed, it's still "but Lenin was bad actually" discourse

I've said it before and I'll say it again: One of the biggest reasons the right wing couldn't make Charlie Kirk stick as their Reichstag fire is that none of them, including his own widow, actually and sincerely gave a fuck he died

I Love Unlimited PTO So Much!

anyway, requesting below european levels of vacation seems to offend people apparently

reminds me of when pelosi said she thought the border wall was immoral, that it should instead be a “high tech wall”

i mean, aside from the right wing across europe freaking out when their population goes slightly below 90% white… sure

i realize you’re talking about your pet, but big same

for all the faults the US has, we’re miles ahead of europe in terms of even just talking about racism and slavery, even with how horrible the impact has been and continues to be today. part of it is likely due to us being a settler-colonial state, but it does feel we’re at least addressing it

i think this is essentially what drove me nuts about living in the UK - brits talk about american racism all the time, but pubs were segregated until the 60’s and are still largely white british institutions! there just seems to almost no retrospection comparatively

i remember having to open a PR because they didn’t filter the n-word at all

yeah there’s no fucking way i’m going back to mastodon. i’d rather go back to twitter than deal w a bunch of HOA-coded fiefdoms

god that’s cool

What happened to Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez Immigration agents shot and killed an unarmed 38-year-old father outside Chicago on Friday—and their initial narrative of events was quickly disproven by videos captured by witnesses.

New, w/ @mulchy.bsky.social & @djbyrnes1.bsky.social:

ICE shot & killed an immigrant in the Chicago suburbs yesterday.

Then they immediately gave a misleading account of events.

Chicago erupted in chaos and a father who lived here for decades is dead. This is what really happened:

At least he died with the love of his life, school shootings

oh hey there’s me and my gf behind the lakers jacket guy just barely representing the under 40 demographic

i died trying to ride the bus

ended up failing out of the #zcavengerhunt but now hanging w friends on the LES - haven’t been out here in a minute, good excuse to be in the city

“look at that three eyes over there”

*zuck takes off his glasses and starts sobbing in the corner, stupidly*

we should ban mormons though, if only because their game is too tight

i fucking love NYC beaches for this reason - it's aggressively pro-public access much like a lot of other things in the city

This is on @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @ericswalwell.bsky.social and @danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co and everyone else who has aligned with the Republicans on their hyper Islamaphobic shit. You guys are the GOP.

it’s wild how shameless the right has been over the years poising themselves as the “free speech” party and when they get power they do this to people using free speech

godspeed you! black emperor last night was fucking amazing, finally a major tick off my bucket list.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

I wonder if the reason ICE agents conceal their identities, and the Trump administration is concerned about them being identified, is because they don't want anyone finding out how many J6 insurrectionists and white supremacist gang members are amongst their ranks?

Shit ain’t been right since Desus & Mero went to Showtime.

I think the thing a lot of people are like just refusing to grasp is the point was always that the US cutting off aid would cause mass death. That under developing these countries, creating a network of soft power and dependence was always the liberal agenda. That it was set up this way.

It's important to remember the police that murdered this man's son claimed the son was armed however the body camera footage could not verify that fact.

Seriously. It's fuck the police until they stop killing people and even then it's still fuck the police.

Simple as that.

This is one of the reasons why I don’t believe in up front design. Like I said to a junior once: «You’ve made all sorts of decisions, but you don’t know enough to decide these things.»

This is also why estimation is fundamentally broken: we don’t know enough. Finding out is part of solving it.
