I hate shopping today. I live in Omaha. The physical places to shop are basically department stores and maybe some local shops that you can’t find anymore. And by that I mean, if you search online, you get 81 ads for Amazon. Commerce in the USA is fucking dead.

A farmer in small-town America, after decades of voting for corporate-owned Republicans, in an effort to “own the city liberals”, is suddenly shocked to realize he ruined his own livelihood. It a tale of woe easily foreseen by even… The Twilight Zone.

Here’s one more example of the monumental fuck-up committed by US citizens who didn’t vote against Trump in 2024. And I can hear it now, “Harris would have done the same thing.” Sure and that makes all the rest of the adults and kids killed by ICE, the elimination of USAID, and measles worth it. 🤡

Trump Is Reportedly Sending Israel $2.8 Billion in Bombs. You're Paying for Them

Donald Trump is preparing to supply $2.8 billion worth of bombs to Israel, The Washington Post reports. U.S. taxpayers will foot the bill.

Here’s a completely delusional video from “Farm Journal”. Jim Hertzog is an out-of-touch boomer idiot. He thinks people aren’t buying beef because gas prices are high. A pound of ground beef has been over $7/lb in Nebraska of all places. Any NY strip steak is $20 *each*. 1/4

I hate Amazon. I hate Jeff Bezos. If you still have Prime and regularly buy shit from them, you’re an idiot. The billionaires are RUINING everything that used to be cool about the Internet! They are ruining what we used to enjoy out of life, all for more money. And nobody is stopping them.

Free policy idea for Democrats running for midterms: Pass a new law that requires all food manufacturers to revert their product recipes and package sizes to 1995. We all know that snack cakes, candy and fast food tasted better back then. And the old LARGER sizes would justify today’s prices. 🧁🍔🍫

It chaps my ass to hear multiple of my favorite YouTube creators tell us that the ad revenue they get is lower than it used to be. Google/Alphabet cram tons of ads into videos (or people like me pay for Premium to escape them), so why do the people who make them not make much money? 😡

Using Ai for creative endeavors shows you have no ability in those endeavors yourself. You’re no better than a billionaire who commissions a self portrait. In fact, you’re worse because nobody actually wanted what you produced in the first place. And, the rest of you, stop posting Ai slop!

Dirk Niblick @dirkniblick.com · 21/08/2026

Ai makes awful code. People who hate it will give you dozens of example and, if their employer forces them to use it, can easily account for how many hours they waste fighting the Ai. People who love Ai will say the same thing when pressed. Shit, the Ai itself tells you it can’t be trusted. 🚫🤖

I halted my car for a stop light and found myself next to a red pickup with a bumper sticker and a MAGA hat decal, both saying “Trump 2028”. To every Bluesky idiot who has given me shit for normalizing Trump running for a third term: Fuck off.

If anybody tells you that the economy is doing great, show them this video. The US economy is already fucked, but we’re barely seeing the real ramifications of the Trump and MAGA destruction of the country on folks because of the AI bubble and the line-go-up stock market. 😡

I’ve been hearing good things about Dungeon Crawler Carl and had planned on reading it. But then I see this ad the author, Matt Dinniman, did for Audible while creeping on Reddit. Audible used to be great. Then Amazon gobbled it up and enshitified it. This is a bad look. 🙂‍↔️👎

For example, I enjoy the Supernatural TV show. There’s tons of Christian stuff in there, but it’s used solely for fun storytelling. And all that stuff is just as “real” to me as the ghosts, vampires, werewolves, shapeshifters and stuff from other religions & Greek/Roman mythology. It’s not. 👻

Imagine posting on social media and feeling entitled enough to scold others for interacting AND agreeing with you. And then they block you for calling them on their bullshit. 🙄

I was at the Ren Faire over the weekend, and when the Vegetable Justice guy in the stocks said "Can we have JK Rowling a break?" I was pretty proud to be the first and the loudest "NO!", which then led to a loud chorus of boos. I went on for like half a minute, and it was pretty much all my fault.

Julie DiCaro @juliedicaro.bsky.social • 2d
Also, that guy did not know his audience. I bunch of geeks, nerds, and theater kids is not the place to try to hype up transphobia.

Ruben Tisch @rubentisch.bsky.social • 2d
If yhe whole point was to get people to thoew stuff at him it sounds like he knew his audience well.

Dirk Niblick @dirkniblick.com
Exactly! This is the WHOLE point of the tomato guy at the renaissance fair. He wasn't "punching down" or "hyping transphobia". He was being obnoxious so people buy tomatoes.
WARNING: They sometimes make fun of people's appearance as they walk by too.

This is a pretty weak take from someone whose job relies on TV being made by a delusional billionaire. I mean, why even boycott Bezos or Musk or Trump even? Why even take a position on anything ever if it means you can’t watch mediocre TV? 🐎💩

Screenshot a Bluesky post from Mo Ryan @moryan.bsky.social at 8:25 PM on Aug 17, 2026:

And my replies are mostly turned off because if you are the kind of scold that points out that a TV program is on a streamer that a delusional billionaire owns, congrats, you're the first person who ever thought of mentioning that and no, I hadn't realized

some of you bluesky too hard, stay safe

There is NO WAY Trump says this kind of thing or that he doesn’t care about the sailors on the Lincoln if he wasn’t planning on halting or literally rigging elections (again). He isn’t worried about any accountability but he IS worried about prison if he survives into 2029. 🔔 NOVEMBER WILL BE BAD.

If you attempt to imply, or say outright, I am not against Israel’s war crimes or even implicitly support their genocide in Gaza, you will go here. This includes equating the above with a vote for Biden or Harris. I’m sick of this bad faith bullshit. 🐂💩

Take your own advice. Did you think that the Biden Harris administration could slaughter children for a year and a half and then Kamala could run on continuing that slaughter and win the election? Grow up! You can't ask voters to vote for illegal acts. What's wrong with you?

If you CAN understand this, I’d be happy to know you. If you CANNOT understand this, do us both a favor and leave me alone. Or block me, if need to feel powerful. Whichever, just don’t start a fight that makes you look like an illogical doorknob.

Dirk Niblick @dirkniblick.com · 10/08/2026

Apparently I need to say this out loud. Being against Netanyahu and the government of Israel is NOT antisemitism. But also prioritizing the fight against Trump and MAGA’s fascism in the US over Israel’s genocide in Gaza is NOT advocating for said genocide.

It’s crazy how much credit a “crazy asshole” gets when they backtrack from “crazy asshole move” after millions of regular people tell them they’re making a “crazy asshole move”. Like, they’re a “crazy asshole”! They should not get a mulligan for making a “crazy asshole move”.

I’m in the middle of season 2 of 1989’s Coach tv show and, I gotta say, it holds up as a pretty great example of a TV sitcom. Yes, Hayden is a jerk in a lot of ways, but I think you need that in a sitcom otherwise there’s no stakes and no humor.

It sure would be nice if the news could report on the President without images or sound clips of his retched face or nauseating voice. This might be the one valid use case for AI, to remove Trump’s stupid image and sound from my news feed…
