Treat yourself to this incredible photo essay/interview series with Cybertruck owners from @zoeschiffer.bsky.social. Will put my favorite part in a reply below because it is a SPOILER.

Spit On, Sworn At, and Undeterred: What It’s Like to Own a Cybertruck

“We were the targets.” WIRED spoke to seven Tesla Cybertruck owners about their most controversial purchase and why they're proud to drive it.

This is a very easy way to — at best — further villainize half of the the American people, dividing us even more and pushing us closer to outright civil conflict.

Or — at worst — manufacture a justification to begin rounding up Democrats voters outright.

This is very very specific language they only had one parallel and it’s originally in German.

No, the holdouts are not pushing for healthcare for illegal aliens and never were. They are fighting for American citizens to keep the coverage we have without doubling premiums, while the right seeks to chop budgets and give that money to billionaires.

If I had a nickel for every time an actor played two roles opposite themselves in a project in the year 2025, I’d four nickels.

Which isn’t much, but it’s weird that it’s happened four times.

Post the wins.

Think about how consumers and market forces made these giant powerful companies change course and — here’s the important part — defy Trump.

Now consider doing it for something bigger than Jimmy Kimmel.

If you ever feel powerless, just remember that a bunch of nerds canceled their Disney+ for a week in support of a TV host and effectively bullied Mickey Mouse into stopping a full-on authoritarian attack on free speech.

Resistance takes on many forms.

Don’t give up. Don’t lose hope.

This just further confirms my theory that Spaceballs 2 is gonna be all about riffing on the Sequels and I CANNOT wait. 🤣

CultureSlate @cultureslate.bsky.social · 21d

‘Spaceballs 2’ released its first behind the scenes image today; a black & white still of actors at a table read which bares an intentionally striking resemblance to a photo from ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’.
