Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

The optimistic interpretation of the group chat leaks is that these guys feel so aggrieved and emboldened that they go out of their way to prove they’re Nazis, a type of person who, you know, remains almost uniquely reviled.

This is urgent. We have no food in the fridge and freezer and have been living off of oatmeal and Pb and Js for 3 days now. Please help if you can or at the very least repost this so more people can see!

Juniper @coffinfairy.bsky.social · 13h

Ok I need help getting groceries since all of our fridge and freezer food went bad when the power was out.

Screenshot of text that reads: I'm a single disabled mom of four. I have uterine fibroids that causes excessive bleeding and fatigue, POTs and PTSD from Covid turning into long covid and causing my health problems. I was working two jobs prior to not working until it caught up to me and l ended up in the ER with a heart rate that wouldn't slow down until I had to take medication. I have been trying to get on disability since. A year later I started to caretake for my disabled child by myself as well. I had help previously but it wasn't working out and l've had to do a lot of it on my own, now I'm stuck in a situation where working isn't possible for my health and while I'm already caretaking for my disabled child that needs constant care. I did not ever envision this happening to me and have always worked hard to take care of my family but now I'm in what feels like an impossible situation trying my best to take care of my kids and myself so I can stay around for them as long as possible. Im not enjoying coming online asking for help but I have no where else to turn. I'm doing everything I can to get help but it's not

Screenshot of text that reads: everything I can to get help but it's not enough to survive off of. I'm sadly the only responsible parent and have limited family that all live too far to help. I live in California which is a bit expensive but with the state of America right now I'm trying to stay where my trans child and disabled child are the safest. Any help is appreciated and keeps my kids and I surviving while waiting on disability or other options I'm pursuing to happen. I don't know what the future holds but as a mother I'm doing everything I can to keep my family together, healthy and happy. Even if it means coming online and begging for that help. Thank you if you read.
Please boost if you're able. The chances someone who can help sees my post greatly increases with more eyes. Lots of love

It is insane to me that his approval is in the toilet, especially in the economy and the chattering classes just pretend it is not happening.

G Elliott Morris @gelliottmorris.com · 7h

alternatively, trump's at 41% approval — that's pretty "sour" right?

Dan Hopkins @dhopkins1776.bsky.social · 7h

In his interview w @jonfavs.bsky.social, @ezraklein.bsky.social asks, "why haven't the tariffs soured the public on Trump?"

An answer from my book on ACA opinions: the contemporary US economy is so diverse & complex that even sizable policy changes don't move opinions consistently.

The empty formalism used to constitutionally forbid diversity-enhancing or remedial action—that to “stop discriminating on the basis of race we must stop discriminating on the basis of race”—is possibly the most invidious trope the Roberts Court has cultivated in our modern legal culture.

Mike Johnson, fake Christian, doesn't think a Republican congressman beating up his girlfriend is "really serious."

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 8h

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

They have 100% always been this way, though notably the transition from helicopter rides and referencing crushing minorities abroad humorlessly transitioned to nazi shit, but like that's basically a new layer of paint instead of a new perspective.

For those tempted to say Young Republicans have always been this way, they really have not. When I worked on campus and did bipartisan college events after, they were very much not like this.
That's why groups like YCT and eventually TPUSA formed -because Young Republicans weren't radical enough.

Ever since Mark Carney made that remark about it being "a problem" that the public service is Canada's #1 employer, I've suspected he actively resents social welfare as a concept, and on a level not seen since Mulroney.

Genderflux Superfluid @rewhan.bsky.social · 20d

I hate neoliberal economics man. We all work harder and harder for less and less every goddamned year, only to be told because we're not paying the government back enough, they have to claw back the meagre supports we have left, while the ownership class laughs all the way to the bank.

Everett, Mass. is a city directly North of Boston. According to the 2010 Census, 33% of residents were born outside of the US—that includes the abducted boy's family, who came from Brazil and have a pending asylum case here. Naturally, ICE has had a bombastic presence in the community this year.

ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t.

Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

One time I got sued by Stephen King. We didn't end up going to trial, instead we settled in King Author's court.

...I'm sorry for this one.

America/Canada deserves a decent midsized, mid market Wagon with an actual advertising campaign behind it.

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?
