Decided I might as well bring over my Twitter thread of... POWER RANGERS VILLAINS AS HEAVY METAL SUBGENRES!

It's crazy how much Jared Leto's face has changed since he was a heartthrob on My So-Called Life. If you want to learn more, google "Jared Leto teen"

The Supreme Court’s majority right wing indicated in oral arguments that they think racism is over on the same day that the vice president defended the “I love Hitler” guy, and that the NYT reported that the current administration plans to accept only white, English-speaking refugees.

very funny that JD Vance has so little to do with his time that he goes on podcasts to defend 30-year-old men for saying how much they love Hitler

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 7h

JD Vance dismisses Young Republicans who in a group chat said "I love Hitler" and joked about slavery and rape as "a bunch of kids" who "told stupid jokes" and adds that "most of the stupid things I did when I was a teenager and young adult, they're not on the internet."

No true bill @bill-of-lefts.bsky.social · 25m

This has been bothering me all day because the obvious point of No Kings is to show we have the power to do a color revolution if they don‘t honor the results of future elections.

The other point is to radicalize fence-sitters by having people who are *clearly doing nothing wrong* be tear gassed

Hemry, Local Bartender @bartenderhemry.bsky.social · 11h

This is exactly backwards, the no kings protests are a mass movement of regular people that have every republican politician in the country raging about "hate America rallies," and the online protest industry weirdos who say shit like "radlib" to each other are the ones skimming off the top of them

it is no wonder that 50501, a movement of radlibs who are very upset but don’t want to get in trouble, would be boosting superficial activism.

superficial activism has its place, but if that place is front and center, it kills whatever movement it is skimming off the top of.

Regardless of political stripe, so many people want to go back to subsistence farming and hunter-warrior culture which both sucked so hard we created society to not have those things.

It's the funniest thing about men complaining about how culture is making them less masculine when my entire life if you wanted to learn to fight, the government would PAY you to do it. During Iraq we were so desperate for soldiers we were offering amnesty for immigrants if they joined.

“The [Kamala Harris] campaign’s closing message centered more than anything on one of the few issues that posed no threat to her donor base: the defense of democracy and the danger Trump posed to it.”

Shit man, we usually have to wait like 20 years to get confirmation of what we all knew regarding malignant CIA interventions in the global south.

Trump blurting out confirmation of CIA ops in Venezuela while the Pentagon is demanding loyalty pledges of reporters is a funny contrast.

Trump appears to confirm report he authorised CIA operations in Venezuela

US president has taken a series of escalatory steps that appear aimed at toppling the Venezuelan government.

of all the AI bullshit 'you will soon be able to generate entire movies on demand!' is perhaps the most tooth-rattlingly insane. Even if we pretend AI can actually make something anyone would ever want to watch (it can't), the compute required to do that 'on-demand' would be galactic

You haven't read Fire Punch yet? It is excellent. Also is was really funny when people said Chainsaw Man was too depressing because Fire Punch shows you how much Fujimoto is actually holding back.

there's a bizarre need some "Democrats" have to ritualistically punish themselves/the party whenever we don't win, when the truth is not that the American public was wisely mad about a real thing and took a sensible course to correct, no they were stupid and believed really dumb lies
