anchor last night: "Major fossil fuel companies and their executives could be charged criminally for their role in causing climate-related extreme weather events...and the concept has been endorsed by a number of New York city and state elected officials." LFG!!!!

Please do not compare the slaughter of my ancestors to a rent freeze and free bus proposal.
“Jews for gas chambers”

Dems should dust off this bad boy.

Kamala - hasn’t lifted a goddamn finger since the election. Biden, who got us into this dystopia - not a goddamn word since “welcome home.” Obama? Too busy living that billionaire dream life. Bernie’s the only goddamn leader acting like he gives a shit about human civilization.
The line for the Bernie Sanders rally in Warren is so long it takes 10 minutes just to walk from the back to the front. People aren’t just showing up—they’re fired up. The energy is with progressive leaders, not the moderates or corporate puppets. #BernieSanders #WarrenMI

lol you guys remember where we were like literally two and a half weeks ago
If god forbid a leftist like Hasan Piker were killed, a lot of centrist Dems wouldn’t even publicly mourn him. The idea that any GOP governor would fly flags at half mast for him, like Dem govs are doing for Kirk, is beyond laughable. That’s the imbalance we have in this country.

I decided to rewatch the first Gladiator to get ready for Gladiator II, and man, I had forgotten the moral depravity of this film. The movie basically celebrates Maximus’s killing of Commodus in the end. Like, come on, that’s a human being — a brother, an uncle, a son.

Single best description of AI I’ve ever read, from the great Ted Chiang.

It's just so clear not only that Bernie would have won, but that he could've created a new opening to channel all the alienation and anger that today is pushing young men towards fascism. We had the perfect answer to right-wing authoritarianism, and Dem elites spiked it, twice.

a "folk hero" while promoting his new Bob Dylan movie today on Theo Von's podcast.

This is a Nazi rally. They’re Nazis. Good god, that should mean something.
Dems flailing to figure out how to regain popularity when there's a literal how-to guide example right across the border.

It seriously sucks that this monstrosity now goes back to the House, where the margin will be razor thin, and where multiple Democratic seats are empty because the reps chose to try to hold onto power through the bitter end and die in office rather than retire.
