I'm sure I'm obnoxious to always bang on about the double standards, but can you imagine what the media coverage would look like if a Democratic president said we can sacrifice Oklahoma City and Tulsa?

I guess I'm a centrist. Don't worry, Bluesky. Only when it comes to late 90s apocalyptic space object movies. Deep Impact is well written. It has actual characters. But it is a slow burn. Armageddon is silly fun trash. Both have valid points. Fans of each should go to lunch and discuss!

Of course the type of guy who thinks women make up rape allegations for attention and to ruin lives for funsies is also the type of guy to try and get someone fired over a mean comment on the internet.

I keep forgetting that Evil Dead Burn is on HBO Max. Finally pressed play on it. I was meh on the remake, but liked Rise a lot. So I'm not sure if I should anticipate liking this or not.

It should actually be a huge scandal worthy of wall to wall media coverage that the president is using slurs to name call a candidate from the opposing party. I'm guessing this won't get a 100th of the coverage that Obama wearing a tan suit got.

I know these companies are counting on a government bail out when the AI bubble pops, and they just might get it. Then again, they might not. I don't think they or the most pro-AI politicians quite anticipate how unpopular that would be across the political spectrum.

T-Mobile has gotten super aggressive with reminder texts when the due date of the bill is coming up. Mine is due tomorrow. They've already sent 2 texts. I wonder if this means there's been an increase in customers missing payments? A recession indicator?

A whole lot of men simply can't wrap their heads around the notion that women are human beings and that the things that happen to us matter in any way.

This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but given what kind of weekend it’s been on here, apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us get comfortable with “ruining” young rapists’ lives

How many times has the media done pieces on swing voters, Trump curious Democrats etc who turn out to be dedicated Republicans. Was it CNN that did a swing voter townhall that had a participant who turned out to be in local GOP leadership? By now, I'm just assuming it's on purpose.

Mormon missions last two years. Missionaries have to pay all their own living and travel expenses. It costs thousands of dollars. The religion worth billions of dollars makes young people pay to work for them. #FrightClub

Shane really seems to hate Emily. On the one hand, I feel him. Because I hate her too. On the other hand, he hates her for misogynistic reasons. He's so bitter that she's the main breadwinner and humiliated that this means he has to take on domestic work. #RHOC

Other people have pointed out that this perspective comes from a place of privilege, so what I'll add is the question that no one who is worried about liberal bubbles has ever been able to answer. What conservative perspective is remotely new, challenging, or these days even based in reality?

Everyone remembers threads for how horrific the nuclear bombing sequence is, but what really hit me was how the characters had no idea what was coming even though there were news broadcasts and newspaper headlines about the looming threat of nuclear war in the background. They were just ignoring it.

So, the transphobic attack ad on Sherrod Brown just aired on whatever channel my dad his TV on. Probably ESPN or whatever airs college football. The thing is, we are in MN and Brown is running in OH. That's okay. I'm glad Republicans are wasting their money advertising to the wrong voters.

Ellison is going to make Ben Shapiro head of Warner Brothers, isn't he? A bunch of right wing crap will get greenlit and be given huge budgets, and all of it will flop. I guess the brightside is that A24, Neon, and Mubi will become more profitable as they'll be the only ones making grownup films.

The only silver lining to Trump2 is how absolutely vicious Republican infighting has gotten. They hate each other as much as normal people hate them all. They can't be happy being in power because they're miserable people and no one truly loves them.

This is true, and the same goes for athletes who are pursuing the Olympics or professional sports careers. In fact, one of the drugs that was found in then 15 year old figure skater Kamila Valieva's positive doping test was a puberty blocker. There was no outrage from transphobes about it.

I hope so! I've never been a single issue voter before, but I will be in the 2028 Democratic presidential primary. Whoever runs hardest on accountability and has specific plans to make it happen gets my support. And I hope early primary state voters feel the same.

There's a lot of bird noise that really stands out with headphones. I wonder if it's just what was captured filming outside or if it was played up on purpose. And if so, why? #FrightClub

I just pressed play on Bloody Tennis on Shudder. I'm going in totally blind. Is it a slasher? Is it like Suspira but tennis instead of ballet? Or like Down a Dark Hall, but tennis specific? Something else entirely? I guess we'll see.

Important 🧵 I've seen a lot of people - mostly men - on here who are otherwise progressive and who agree that cops and prosecutors are liars and bigots under any other circumstances take the DA statements at face value to excuse disbelieving the victim. But ACAB absolutely applies to rape cases too.

It's wild how the most random little thing can evoke such strong memories of a loved one who has died. I had cinnamon toast for breakfast and it felt like I was in my grandparent's kitchen. My grandmother loved cinnamon and that was a frequent breakfast when I stayed with them.

MAGA didn't come from nowhere. Reaganism played a huge role in what the Republican party has become. The fact that anti-Trump Republicans can't or won't see that is why I do not trust them.

I can't help noticing that the pundit class spent all of 2024 claiming that Democrats shouldn't only campaign on culture war (they weren't) and should talk about economic issues (they did) but now that economic issues are bad for Repubs, they're always asking Democrats about Piker and trans kids.

This is the second time in a #JGPFigure stream that Mark has justified abusive coaching by calling it a cultural expectation. I guess this must be the ISU talking point excusing letting Russia back with the doping of Kamila Valieva unaddressed and unpunished. #FigureSkating
