I hope he kills. I've got a lot of money riding on that set.

If I may dril for a moment, you absolutely do not have to give Trump “credit” for anything, ever. The saying does not go “even a broken clock hires its own gestapo”

Hi. Today we're looking at modern conveniences that have a higher cost than we'd like to admit. Amazon, Netflix, Airbnb, Doordash – all require exploiting labor, screwing over customers, and making parts of our society just a little bit worse. Is there a better way?

All this after I went to bat for the guy just a day ago too. I've really got egg on my face. Yikes.

42 million families, including mine, will not have SNAP funding in 2 weeks. 🍽

I encourage those of you able to do so to donate what you can to local food banks, and those of you in need to look up when and where they operate.

There's no shame in needing food. ❤️‍🩹

Well fuck.

we're not talking about a generic skull and crossbones tattoo here - Graham Platner's tattoo appears to be a straight-up 3rd SS Panzer Division Totenkopf.

not subtle!

it is never okay to take out your frustration on service people and people who do have low moral character

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

It doesn't matter how despicable a person is, mocking their innate physical appearance is always wrong.

Not because it's cruel to them, but because it perpetuates the harmful idea that innate physical appearance has anything to do with one's character / beliefs / actions.

This EXACTLY. I'm glad he's talking the talk, but Fetterman did that too. I want someone elected who will actually *walk* when the time comes. If that's his primary challenger, I'm game for her too.

Cody Cockerham @nkpcody.bsky.social · 15d

What piqued my interest was someone else in politics calling what's happening in Gaza what it is. Otherwise I'm not really blown away by his politics. Most of his positions should be the bare minimum in 2025. "Oligarchy Bad" is a pretty cold take at this point.

Cody Cockerham @nkpcody.bsky.social · 15d

So, in theory, do you think this could serve to benefit his campaign? I hadn't stopped to consider the pace of the news cycle today, but it seems to me that there's a better than average chance this could be gone well before any fallout would actually matter.

Cody Cockerham @nkpcody.bsky.social · 15d

Maybe I'm being naive here, but I'm willing to take moderate risks I'm the name of shoving the Overton Window back to the left, even if it's just an inch.

Cody Cockerham @nkpcody.bsky.social · 15d

The SA comments are the worst of it, but they're tamer than I expected from a former Marine. Everything else was just ...typical reddit horseshit? 🤷🏻

Cody Cockerham @nkpcody.bsky.social · 15d

Having just read the article, the comments are not great, but this also smells like a hit job. I've said dumber stuff than this (and probably more recently). Not that I'm proud of it, but I don't think any of the posts are as disqualifying as the headlines make them sound.

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

John Brown’s raid on Harpers Ferry began on this day in 1859.

Every time I hear a streamer use the r-slur, I'm unable to divorce it from them saying "I support fascism because not slurring people was a line too far."

When the word bounces off my ears, I hear it not as thoughtless derogatory speech, but an ideological announcement.

I can't be the only one.

I'm not a Zionist. In the past I likely had a lot of the same wrong views of Palestine that many uninformed Westerners my age did, and I'm sure that's been unfortunately visible at points in the 20 years I've been in media; which is on me. I believe in a free Palestine and end to Genocide.

I think the paper of record should weigh in on whether there is an insurrection or threat to national security

maybe those Oregon officials are backed up by objective reality, the kind of thing a newspaper might report on
