I should be sleeping but instead I'm thinking about the great misinformation campaign of our time*

*the idea that GRRM hasn't been very obviously laying the groundwork for a romance between Jaime Lannister and Brienne of Tarth that would be as epic and groundbreaking as the rest of the series

I will now defend myself by paraphrasing jack nicholson in that scene from a few good men, who is the hero of that movie btw
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?

HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

Imagine being a goy and standing up and telling Jewish people they don’t know or understand their own fucking history. That Jews are ignorant and too uneducated to have correct opinions about the Jewish issue of our time that has broken families and communities. You absolute piece of trash.
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

John Prine's live recordings are so good and have always made me feel so much. He's probably my all-time favorite musician. But since 2020 sometimes I just feel like I'm at a funeral when I listen to them. It's so weird to feel like you lost someone you never really knew.

There have been at least 19 murders in D.C. since Trump deployed the National Guard here in August. One was the murder of a Guard soldier less than a week ago.
Trump: "Washington now is, uh, no murders. It's been a miracle."

Remember that huge Discord data breach in Europe earlier this year, when so many folks had their identities stolen because of easy access to their IDs?

That is one BIG reason to NOT support online ID verification.
You shouldn’t have to present your ID, credit card info, or face to be scanned just to access your favorite sites, news, or games yet this is the growing reality for Internet users globally. We need a firestorm to take down online ID checks for good-- so we planned one. Join us for a week of action!

Hey, if someone says “I am excited about Thing!” and you instinctively tell them that you think Thing is going to be shit and they shouldn’t be excited about it, you are an asshole.

republicans believe poor people deserve to suffer because they're lazy and weak, whereas the democrats have a much lengthier explanation

The president is about to start a war for no real reason. All of the things he has blamed on the country he’s targeting — fentanyl distribution, “emptying the asylums” and sending patients to the U.S., alignment with Tren de Aragua— are provably, obviously false.

Lots of people are going to die.

National public health “leadership” (hi RFK Jr 🙄) keeps poisoning public health with lies.

Vaccines prevent needless childhood deaths.

No baby in America should be dying of whooping cough — not when we have safe, effective vaccines literally ready to go.

This is a national tragedy

"We don't deserve the trust of the nation if we're unclear about the divisiveness of swastikas" - an anonymous CG official, in the article.

A truly disgusting move from the CG, but not unexpected with the direction things have been moving since they removed ADM Fagan.

Do better, Coast Guard.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

okay, seeing the headlines pop up in news feeds, apparently it's time for various companies to insist we believe there is an AI actress named "Tilly Norwood"

there is no AI actress, there is a computer graphics program that makes an animated character

Scooby-Doo was not an actor, either

For the first time in my career, I can’t tell people to trust what the CDC website says. And that is an incredibly sad and devastating place for this country to be.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”
