The real and true story of why Police Squad (the TV series Naked Gun was based on and easily the funniest tv show of its time) was canceled is legitimately insane and one of the most egregious examples of TV malpractice I’ve ever heard:

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

I think I have less tolerance for the "piracy is okay if you're poor" thing because I am very poor, I've had a few rough years in a row atop a few rough decades (I am possibly only breathing because y'all did that big fundraiser for my birthday last year, which I'm still paying vet bills with).

Part of me wishes it worked the other way round, that we could set up bot farms to auto post our way to human decency, but it doesn't and we can't because the human part is key to it all.

We are fighting for humanity, for human connection, for human creativity and joy and life and all good things.
Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Look. I'm not playing with you people.

During the great depression, if you were employed and had a job, you probably were not living on the streets. In 2025, many homeless people have jobs.

Depending on whose stats you use, and if you count part-time employment, between 40% and 60% have jobs.

I am genuinely baffled. How is ONE white lady who hit and killed a teenager with her car THAT important to these people that they will turn the whole party upside down to keep her in various officer positions? I don't get it! Does she have an archive of their nudes or something?
the DFL constitution, bylaws and rules committee (CBRC) is meeting now. cyndy martin has a motion to remove dan thomas commins as secretary

cyndy martin is the DFL officer facing criminal charges for killing a teenager with her car

the reason 101 dalmations looks like that is because disney incorporated xerography (ie early photocopying technology) into the animation process. rough pencils (by mostly male animators) were copied onto the cels so that disney could fire the (mostly female) inkers. remember that art can lie to you

Seems bad
In Rhode Island, ICE arrested an intern who worked for a court, and then a judge intervened to say they had the wrong person.

All leading to a scene where ICE agents surrounded the judge's car and "threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply." www.wfla.com/news/judge-i...

I am trying to get off gmail without losing my entire email archive and having difficulty.

Is there a way I can download all my emails in Thunderbird, delete them off the gmail servers, and KEEP them in Thunderbird? I know IMAP doesn't usually work that way but... can it?

Absolutely this. I'd add that many conspiracy movements focused on women's health exist because the medical establishment has completely failed women. I know so many people whose doctors drove them to strange behavior in desperation.
Please hear me when I say that

1) these anti-medical woo birth movements have been a primary feeder into anti-vaxx eugenic movements

2) they pre-date the age of social media

3) they exist because we have not addressed medical sexism and specifically obstetric violence
Influencers made millions pushing ‘wild’ births – now the Free Birth Society is linked to baby deaths around the world

do you ever think about how the internet's gotten worse and people have gotten meaner and the entire online ecosystem has been reconfigured towards cruelty and rage-baiting

do you really think that was an accident

it feels like what made media obsfucation of Trump most successful was simply that people *wanted* to vote for him and were looking for reasons to justify their choice

I once sat in the wildest ever employee orientation where the guy went over the "no guns" policy and then said look, we get it, you can leave it in your vehicle. Then he and the 2 other workers, all of them white men, had an animated chat about how they are afraid to go certain places without a gun.
Yep, it’s funny when you travel and meet people, and somehow every state and region has a funny quirk of hating the place that has the most Black people nearby.
shit, speaking as a missiouri resident, if theres two places republicans despise in this state its Kansas City and St Louis
