NPR announced it won’t air sound bites from the Trump White House until further notice. NPR needs to start a subscription service to keep that sound off. I’d subscribe to never hearing that orange fucking lunatic again.

Is this the same #Trump who has missed no opportunity to fuck over any nation that was a US ally? #FuckTrump, fuck his tariffs, and fuck his calls for other countries to help him. Let Israel help him.

Autocephalous [aw-toh-SEF-uh-lus] (adj.) - Independent of external and especially patriarchal authority.

A “Grandiloquent Word of the Day” meme featuring word “Autocephalous” with pronunciation [aw-toh-SEF-uh-lus] and the definition: “Independent of external and especially patriarchal authority.” Beneath it appears the example sentence: “Wearied by unsolicited advice and by being spoken over by the likes of men named Chad, the autocephalous Calphurnia adopted their own tactic in kind, until at last their bruised egos conceded defeat and lapsed into submissive quietude.” To the right is a Victorian-style black-and-white illustration of a woman in a long dress and hat standing on a hillside, holding binoculars and looking toward distant mountains.

Wait wait wait wait wait

4 frame comic. a street journalist is interviewing a tall light brown man with a pink scarf and a tshirt of the band Angine de Poitrine. off-frame, the journalist asks : sir! are you worried about
homophobic parents who
might want to trans their
child rather than have
an effeminate son?
the man replies :
wait wait wait wait wait.
are you implying that some
homophobes might not also
be raging transphobes?
Never heard of that.
trans kids are currently
being hunted down, outlawed,
marginalized from social life,
singled out in their own schools,
and you're asking me about some
hypothetical parent who might
pressure a child into being trans so
they might what? fit in better?
transitioning as a child in-
volves years of determination.
every adult in their life is likely
to cast doubt on who they are. if
they are lucky and have supportive
parents, their families are often
ostracized by their community.
the idea that someone sees the
hardships a family with a trans
child goes through and thinks "they
must have forced it on them"
makes me physically ill.

It strikes me as incongruous that English racists in particular should attack Muslims. Had the English had the courage of their convictions, they would still be Catholic. Instead, they converted en masse per Henry VIII’s decree as a result of his temper tantrum over the denial of his divorce.

Banksy just dropped a bomb at the Royal Courts of Justice in London. A gorilla judge in robes, cleaver raised, standing over a protester. Within hours, staff rushed to cover it up. This is no random wall art. It’s commentary on how the British legal system has always been the Empire’s sharpest

I live in #Oldcastle, Co Meath. While the usual racist dickheads are spouting off about the racist “protest” here on 24th Sept, a significant majority of the people who protested were not from Oldcastle. There were cars from outside the town clogging up the whole town, as well as at least one bus.

For the Guardian, @turnbulldugarte.com and I discuss our research that clearly shows one thing: Labour's anti-immigration strategy will only strengthen Reform and weaken its own electoral prospects.

A sizable chunk of mainstream media outlets feel more comfortable criticizing Zelensky's outfit choices than Trump's foreign policy choices. News sections have to watch what they say, lest they show bias by including too much factual reality, but the fashion section is free to report and opine.

This would be a good opportunity for France to completely block Xwitter. And to make the case to the European Parliament for blocking it across the EU. Who knows? If they made legislation against propaganda networks tight enough, we might finally get rid of Facebook too.

if Repubs win in 2028, they’re going to be out in 2032 regardless. The US’ credit rating will be severely impacted, which will be an even bigger problem than today, because they will need to borrow externally. This is all about buying votes to stay on the gravy train for longer at any cost. (2/2)

And when it does add hugely to the deficit, he’ll start by denying he said it wouldn’t, despite the evidence, and then say it’s actually a good thing, because (incomprehensible explanation that has nothing to do with the deficit). That’s what you do when your core supporters are morons. But… (1/2)

This would tip the power dynamic less toward the political class and their wealthy owners. There’s no will for change among the wealthy, so the political “will” for it hasn’t been purchased. It may even take a revival of “la Terreur” to get started. Who wants to be Robespierre? I’m no orator.

For a brief, shining period, it was about unity and religious liberty. Then the acquisition of wealth above all other considerations took over, and idealism became the blood sacrifice of profit.
