about 50% of Bluesky is the 5% of people who are about 3000% more engaged with politics than the average person having daily slapfights over the future behaviour of ppl who decide who theyre going to vote for depending on the last colour they saw and won't remember who they chose 5 min later

My big fear with Talarico now is not that he’ll lose. I hope he doesn’t, but he probably will lose, because democrats mostly lose in Texas. My fear is that when he loses, trans people will be blamed for not being enthusiastic enough about someone who threw them under the bus at a key moment.

The position of mainstream US/UK Jewish communal organizations is that the West Bank is in NO WAY part of Israel and it's unjust to judge the Israeli state by its actions there, but also you're obliged to treat it as if it's an inalienable part of Israel in every other way. Schrödinger's Occupation.

If I had to write an article that sounds like a raging antisemite was trying to imitate a Jewish person, I’m not sure I could write a better article than “we should force Americans to sell their blood for money to fight a war on Jews behalf”

When I was young I started pronouncing certain things more like Katherine Hepburn because that's how I wanted to sound. I was going for pretentious New England old money. All that and I still ended up sounding like I'm from New Jersey.

The value of Graham Platner is that right up until all his red flags came toppling down upon him is that he is the most naked example of the amount of grace & credibility Simply Being White grants you. Compared to Abdul El-Sayed, who has to re-earn every ounce of credibility he has on a daily basis.

Can I ask a question that may have an obvious answer but I can't think of it? Why do politicians post something on X, and then instead of also posting on Bluesky, they post a screenshot of what they posted on X? It makes it look cheap and lazy, and reminds us they still use the nazi site

It’s pretty important that we call out his disgustingly racist this is at every opportunity. It’s bad enough that they’ve totally whitewashed how Muslims were treated after 9/11, now they’re using it as a cudgel against any Muslim running for public offices.

the saxophones getting louder meme is already dead. It’s from “Boyz n the Hood” and the saxophones played before a character got shot, but then people didn’t get the reference and they just started using it to indicate something was going wrong. Chanty Beluga is a queen and needs no explanation

Isn’t their argument that people are fine with active racism but can’t handle AI criticism? I’m not saying I agree with that or it’s an accurate description. But it doesn’t feel like this thread is actually grappling with what was said.

I’m more hostile to AI than most so I’m absolutely not an objective observer. But isn’t this person pointing out that people are saying they won’t post on BlueSky because of AI hostility, but are fine posting on X even though it’s run and promotes people that are activity racist and fascist?

Also, X-Men #1 in 1991 was (and still is?) the best selling comic of all time, and it heavily inspired the Animated Series down to the costumes. Jubilee was in X-men #1, Kitty wasn’t.

Michael David @paxuniversalis.bsky.social · 15/08/2026
Kitty had left the X-men and was on Excalibur at the time and so Jubilee had been introduced, and she mostly took the place of Kitty. As to why she never appeared, even as a cameo, is a mystery. Far more obscure characters appeared.

Michael David @paxuniversalis.bsky.social · 15/08/2026
Also fun fact! Kitty Pryde has never appeared in X-Men the Animated Series or X-Men 97, despite being one of the most popular mutants for decades at the time the original series came out. In fact, there’s an alternate pilot called “Pryde of the X-Men” that actually stars her!

“This is a mass marketed book and there are literally thousands of other copies” is something I’ve had to say to people looking like Elsa from that one scene in “The Last Crusade” more than once.

I think the thing we are all in denial about when it comes to the One Cool Trick to win elections forever is that low info swing voters are basically incomprehensible eldritch horrors to politically engaged people. There’s no understanding them and you’ll go mad trying.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.

I always say it’s easy to hate leftists until you hang out with centrists. The way centrists on this site are freaking out over the Dem primary results are making it very easy to love leftists.
