Seems like a good opportunity to hold a big loud costume party on the Coast Guard Island Bridge.

Getting a Nazi tattoo in your 20s demonstrates poor judgment in your 20s. Keeping that tattoo for 18(?) years, and keeping it *when you are running for office* demonstrates tremendously poor judgment *right now*. You want a Senator with judgment that poor? I don’t, and I doubt Maine does either.

Forever imagining a world where Sega didn’t own-goal itself out of the console market.

Like what if Sega doesn’t blow off 3dfx? Does the money from providing graphics chips to a successful Dreamcast keep them out of bankruptcy? How does that then affect Nvidia’s trajectory?

So many ripples.

Gotta tell ya, I never knew the President was allowed to just tear down the White House on a whim.

C'mon Sony where's the A7V? The A7R V has been out for three years already! The A7iv is four years old!

We found two outstanding camera deals, including one on Sony's A7R V at the lowest price it's ever been.

Just as an extension of the above: Not even when I was in the military did my friends and I talk like those “Young” Republicans, not even in our own “spaces”.

If everyone around you talks like that, that’s because you have surrounded yourself with evil, hateful people.

Patrick Chovanec @prchovanec.bsky.social · 6d

No, this is how Nazis talk in their own spaces. I don’t know abut this dude, but I never talked about gassing people and raping women when I was hanging out with my pals.

Millennial Man here: I never had a “Nazi phase”.

amy brown @amybrown.xyz · 1d

i actually don’t think the “average” american millennial man had a nazi phase. it’s not some boys will be boys shit. this makes me side eye you and your friend group, sounds like a personal problem

The average American millennial man has been a neocon, a pacifist, a liberal, a libertarian, a communist, a nazi, and I believe now most of us are back around to liberal again. This isn't a defense of platner it's just weird how normal this shit is for guys that age.

Bernie wtf are you doing

joffre.bsky.social @joffre.bsky.social · 1d

Bernie isn't admitting he is wrong *now*.

Tweets from John Bresnahan, @bresreports:
An angry Bernie Sanders won’t drop his support for Graham Platner despite a Nazi tattoo on his chest

2/ Sanders said Platner “as a young man” went thru some really difficult experiences” in Iraq and Afghanistan.

3/ Sanders: “I personally think he is an excellent candidate and will support him, and I look forward to him becoming the next senator from Maine.”

4/ When pressed on Platner’s Nazi tattoo, Sanders lashed out at the “corrupt campaign finance system” adding “We don’t have enough candidates in this country that will take on the powers that be and fight for the working class.”

NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.

Rare instance of me agreeing with Fetterman. If the GOP wants to finally kill the filibuster, then by all means, let it die.

As someone who grew up watching the Indy 500, it’s so weird to see Penske go from a name I recognize for owning a racing team to a name I recognize for owning a little bit of goddamn everything.

You have to be willing to walk away from these guys if they let you down, just as a matter of basic self respect. It's not a fandom. You're hiring them to do a job or not.

timothy faust @tbone.malware-virus.biz · 1d

I liked the Platner ads too but I think there's a difference between "guy who had some bad reddit posts a decade ago" and "ex-Blackwater merc who still has a Nazi tattoo." Sucks bigtime that he's the only one taking positions and talking policy I like, but them's the breaks!

IMHO? That’s intended. Netanyahu wants the rest of the world to be anti-Semitic so he can continue claiming Israel is the only safe place for Jews. For the ADL to drive itself into irrelevance would just be another data point in his favor.

He puts Jews across the world in danger for his own gain.

Joel S. @joelhs.bsky.social · 1d

The fact that groups like the ADL are refusing to take "yes" from an answer from Mamdani, while downplaying neo-Nazi ties from political appointees on the right, is just going to mean antisemitism becomes identified as a partisan talking point, and no one will take it seriously ever again.

you are on bluesky because elon musk's daughter cut him off after she came out and he thought she caught the trans from twitter, so he bought twitter hoping to prevent trans people from existing. it's why you're here, it's why the site was here when you got here.

Casey Explosion @caseyexplosion.bsky.social · 1d

The scale of it is unimaginable. What they're spending, the sheer amount of effort being put into opposing trans people's human rights, it's a struggle to conceptualise the extent of it.

It's why Elon Musk bought twitter.

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

STEREOGUM: People my age, we talk about how we were lucky that we didn’t have social media growing up, and there’s no record of all the dumb shit we said and did. You didn’t have social media, but everything you said and did in those years is on record, and you’ve got to live with it now. That’s tough.

VIOLENT J: And the amount of gay Juggalos out there is really surprising. I think about them doing their research and getting the old records, getting excited about it, and getting their hearts broke or something, you know? I tell my daughter, “For the rest of your life, when your friends ask why your dad said that, say it’s because your dad was a fool. Don’t defend me. Say I was a fool then, but I’m not now.” There’s no excuse. I was going with the flow, and that’s the very thing we preach against — being a sheep. And that’s what I was doing.

My mom’s husband has been fully on the Trump train since the 2016 election. She told me last week he hung a big “F🇺🇸K TRUMP” banner outside the house.

They’ve lost the alcoholic redneck demographic. How much support can there possibly be left?
