their end vision of the world, and it is the end of the world where they see us, is basically one large fascist military state that is mowing the grass at the border which itself is a semi-occupied state to constantly extract human life for capital. there's not a subtext, they're just saying it.

It is really remarkable that in a time of historic impasse in Congress, with both houses have been reduced to complete standstills despite a mounting number of political, economic, and ethical crises, both parties have spent months working to pass a bill limiting the pay of college athletes

what keeps me up at night is these guys have basically never received real pushback and they still lost their minds and shredded the federal government's regulatory capacity when employees started griping too much in the company slack. What if you actually arrested one of them for their crimes

Cornell University treating Gaza protestors more harshly than gang rapists is a real statement of values. It’s almost like violent domination by the powerful is the core belief of leadership.

this is it, the single worst take on music i’ve ever read in my life
Yep. It's fine to have not heard Choosin' Texas or any other song. But too many think it's a cool cognoscente move to profess ignorance of/disdain for "country crap"
The Nashville industrial complex makes the smartest pop music, period. Wit & craft are the defining Music Row values. Don't be a rube
Carl Wilson @carlzoilus.bsky.s... • 2h
Marissa's Rolling Stone piece made clear she knew why you may not have heard
"Choosin' Texas," 2026's biggest hit.
Her question was, why be aggressively
*proud of it? Sadly, she overstated it in that out-of-context quote. But all the over-the-top/"country sucks" reactions mostly support her point.

Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

Half of Obama's own party threw a tantrum over his novel "don't do stupid shit" doctrine in relation to Iran. Trump then immediately tore the JCPOA up to little resistance. The next president did next to nothing to try and revive it and instead spent 3 years begging Saudi to be friends with Israel.

Any analysis of the Iran War that doesn't start and end with the fact that an entire cottage industry of think tankers and lobbyists and their friends in Congress were frothing at the mouth for literal decades for this got exactly what they wanted and it failed immediately and totally is wrong.

it might be take a few election cycles to find someone who can rally everyone like trump did but it doesn't really matter, there's no "fever" to "break," this is just who the party is now. it's why you can't simply "turn the page" on trump or whatever dumb bullshit the losers are pushing now

“Jeffrey Clemmons, Ramos' campaign manager, told KVUE's media partners at the Austin American-Statesman that Ramos was detained while walking his dog at around 8:50 a.m. According to Clemmons, the state troopers, many who arrived in unmarked vehicles, did not show Ramos a warrant for his arrest.”

Today I saw the new 4 hour documentary Musk, directed by Alex Gibney. There were too many times to count that a sold out theater burst out laughing at Elon Musk, something he said or did, even sometimes just how he looked. I believe that is his worst nightmare come to life.

ICE cannot do what it’s doing without local law enforcement. They need their manpower and infrastructure. That means if you want to stop ICE you are going to have to confront police collaboration and police power. I’m sorry but progressive hopes of avoiding this conflict are a recipe for failure.

if you are a Dem who for whatever reason does not feel comfortable actively defending trans rights (which you should) you have two good response options: 1. ignore it! just keep running ads about the economy 2. “I am focused on your pocketbook, my opponent is focused on children’s genitals”

Bashing trans people isn’t just morally wrong, there literally no political upside to it. You’ll never convince anyone who is vociferously against trans rights (like 6% of voters max) that you oppose it enough for them and you alienate your base at the same time. Show me this working just once!
