Unbelievable. Hegseth takes after his master: lawless and unstable.

Tim Kaine's questioning of Hegseth clearly establishes the latter believes that no moral failures are disqualifying for the Secretary of Defense.

So, just to recap the Hegseth confirmation up to this point: He's focused on the lethality of the military and won't commit to ensuring that he won't turn the military on American citizens or foreign allies.

Hold up! Hegseth was denied serving as a guard for Biden's inauguration because his own unit identified him as an extremist? How the hell is that *not* a problem?

Man...fuck Hegseth. This dude clearly wants a military unbound by laws and restrictions to "increase lethality", where the capacity to murder is greater than the rule of law.

And in fact, if we take seriously (as we should) the literature on the colonial roots of fascism, what we're really seeing is an adjustment of the racial & spatial parameters of an already-existing system. drwilliamhorne.substack.com/p/what-is-fa...

What Is Fascism If Not Colonial White Supremacy Persevering?
Fascism grows out of colonialism. Stopping fascism means embracing anti-imperialism.

Enshittification Comes to Washington
Our tech overlords have ruined the online platforms that Americans depend on. Now, as Donald Trump returns to the White House with Elon Musk in tow, expect the same to happen to our government.

Today's smuggie isn't so smug. Drawing things helps me turn them into emotions. Sharing them helps me move on. Thanks for reading this comic, it's my self-therapy. English title is "unspoken". French title is "non-dit". I'm okay. #smuggie #smug #webcomic #depression #grief #toxicmasculinity
YOUNG ADULT: Patriarchal gender norms convinced me feelings are for the weak, so I won't tell you the positive things I have to say about you.

EARLY 20s: I'm going through bad times, depression and emotional issues prevent me from telling you I appreciate you as a person

EARLY 30s: We've had this distant relationship for so long that it feels natural, why disrupt our statu quo by saying nice things

LATE 30s [standing next to a grave]: Well, you're gone now. Gone forever. I never told you a single positive personal thing throughout our interactions. And it feels bad.

NOW [in a clown costume]: I learned literally nothing from this (smug?)JEUNE ADULTE : Le patriarcat et les normes de genre me disent que les émotions sont pour les faibles, donc je ne te dirai pas que je t'apprécie

DÉBUT DE VINGTAINE : Je traverse des difficultés et suis émotionnellement fermé, je ne te dirai pas les choses positives que je pense à ton sujet

DÉBUT DE TRENTAINE : On a cette relation distante depuis tellement longtemps que c'est naturel, trop tard pour ruiner le statu quo

FIN DE TRENTAINE [devant une tombe] : Tu es parti maintenant. On ne se reverra jamais. Je ne suis jamais arrivé à te dire une seule chose personnelle positive. Ça me rend triste.

MAINTENANT [en costume de clown] : Je n'ai littéralement rien appris suite à ceci

Emotions phase is over, back to your daily dose of brainrot. #smuggies #webcomic #comic #brainrot #journalism #tv
[TV News] New law makes every orphan forced to voluntarily step into an orphan crushing machine, thus finally putting an end to society having to deal with orphans. Let's ask a Peppa Pig pez dispenser for their thoughts on this topic.

I'm a Peppa Pig pez dispenser. I literally have no political thoughts. I'm an inanimate fucking object. How do you expect me to answer?

Well thi is it folks, our interviewee seems to have no issue with the new orphan crushing law. Next we'll be asking a Markiplier mpreg fanfic for their thoughts on rising leftist antisemitism.

[person in chair] Fascinating. I will willingly watch this on a loop 24/7.[TV News] Le gouvernement passe une loi forçant tous les orphelins à volontairement se rendre dans une machine à broyer les orphelin, ce qui résoudra pour de bon le porblème de l'existence des orphelins. Demandons l'opinion d'un distributeur de PEZ Peppa Pig sur ce sujet.

Je suis un distributeur de PEZ Peppa Pig. Je n'ai aucune opiniong politique. Je suis un objet inanimé. Comment suis-je censé répondre ?

Comme le prouve cette interview, les gens ne sont pas opposés au broyage des orphelins. Maintenant, demandons à une fanfiction mpreg son opinion sur l'antisémitisme de gauche.

[Personne dans son salon] Fascinant. Je vais volontairement consommer ce contenu télévisé en boucle 24/7.

inthepublicinterest.org/the-return-o... Reading the Privatization of Everything expanded my political imagination. "In it, we argue that privatization is primarily a political strategy—one designed to separate us from public goods, our government, and each other."

Amazon and Walmart are the largest US companies by both revenue and number of employees. But 87% of jobs for Amazon and 91% for Walmart pay less than $20/hr. Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos is worth $229B and the Walton family is worth roughly $270B. See the problem here?

Sometimes I want to be intellectually honest and read opposing arguments about something...and I hate it. Economic storytelling is the basis of most good arguments for a smaller federal government. They're more literary than empirical.

Cosigning. Here's the thing. Displays of hope and perseverance aren't delusions, they're decisions. People who are looking forward with teeth bared know the same shit you know, and decided to fight it anyway. Constantly dooming at them is like leaning on their weights.

I love @aendra.com's @xblock.aendra.dev. Now I just have to pray to the tech gods that someone makes something similar for videos from Fox News and similar.
