It's become abundantly clear that the wealthy are incapable of happiness, which makes the fact that so much of our society is structured around trying to make them happy particularly obscene.

Alright I’ll say it… I’m glad smashing machine bombed and the rock is making Jumanji 3. I liked his first two jumanji’s. What I really want is for the rock to lean into his fast talking, badass, funny, tough-guy persona that he perfected in wrestling and we’ve really only seen on screen in fast 5.

Yesterday I came across this. ca.news.yahoo.com/fact-check-s... Called customer service, reported it and they took it down. Then, looking for a news story about it, I googled “Walmart racist shit” and found these two shirts for sale. I’m tired of playing white supremacist whack-a-mole with Walmart.

Call Walmart’s customer service line and report this.

1) make an account on Walmart.com
2) call 1-800-966-6546
3) Tell the AI to you want to repot a racist shirt on their website.
4) it will put you through to a call center.
5) tell them the same thing and that it’s “paper over rock” shirt.
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST WALMART.

This is quite the graph and reinforces my view that Bluesky is actually quite revolutionary.

I like how Edgar Wright say “the running man”. He says it like “the running MAN”, with emphasis on the “MAN”. I don’t know if it’s a British thing or what, but it’s adorable.

While US venture capitalists were buying monkey jpegs, and DOGE coins, and figuring out how to get Black women fired, and tweeting about white birthrates, and trying to mandate which bathroom trans kids should use, China was making progress on climate change and taking the lead in a real industry.
China has made cheap, clean energy available in huge quantities. The world should take the win econ.st/4oqFszB

@mark-carney.bsky.social are you going to protect Canadians, or not? Are you going to stand up to corrupt, exploitative, sinister tech oligarchs, or not? The fraud problem, the disinformation problem, the racism problem, and the fascism problem all have the same solution. Crack down on big tech!
(Reuters) - Meta internally projected late last year that it would earn about 10% of its overall annual revenue – or $16 billion – from running advertising for scams and banned goods, internal company documents show.

Good morning! AI is being force-fed to you by a handful of billionaires who will lose a bunch of money if they fail to convince you that you need it. You do not need it 🫶

Will their inherent spineless cause democratic leadership to bend in the direction the wind is clearly blowing or will they double down and fight back against progressives harder than they’re fighting back against fascists? I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

So, Deborah messing completely lost her mind, huh? You want to see a horror show, check out or IG stories. Christ on a cracker, just a raging Islamophobe. Wild stuff.

I think the main difference is that when the left sees a problem, they want to try and solve it. When the right sees a problem, they think if they punish people enough the problem will solve itself. This is because, fundamentally, they are abusers. That is the only connective tissue across the right

I hope the letterman YouTube channel puts out a montage of all the times Dave cut to footage of Cheney with a cartoon mechanical heart.

This is such an easy one with plenty of music streaming alts like Apple, Tidal, YouTube, and Bandcamp. There are even tools to migrate your playlists. Get off Spotify
Reports of ICE ads on #Spotify were noted in early October. People began calling for boycotts immediately.

Now, nearly a month later Spotify is seeing major losses.

And we can do ever BETTER. 👏👏👏

If northern revolutionaries had been abolitionists, while Britain supported slavery, the souther states would have sabotaged the revolution and built their identity around being tea drinking monarchists.
