Scary Introvert

Imagine being a laid off USAID employee right now. Or someone struggling in a different country because the aid workers and supplies are gone.

I think Trump is cooked—and it’s helpful for us to say so, repeatedly and often.

Authoritarians use fear to compel obedience. Once people start thinking about what they’ll do once he’s gone, they’re much less likely to obey his commands.

Not sure I'm ready to take Anthropic's side in this. I'm going to need more to get me out of the "AI's known, real harms far outweigh its potential-but-not-guaranteed benefits" camp.

If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job

Who's doing the picking up, Andy? Why aren't you men out there helping your fellow men? Oh, right... 🤡

Ah yes, both hitchhiking and picking up male hitchhikers have been totally safe things for solo women to do. 🙄

Trump speaking after markets close is usually a sign he’ll say something bad for the economy, and the White House communications team doesn’t want a graph with the line going down and blaring red numbers with a minus sign on the screen with him when he does.

Headline: Oil surges above $100 as Gulf states cut back production; WTI nearly touched $120 a barrel at high

So great that MAGA did everything possible to kneecap the electric-vehicle market in the US, while doing everything recklessly possible to ramp up the cost of fuel.

Couldn't be that President Dipshit excels at making himself look bad! Nope.

This should, with no sarcasm or irony whatsoever, be the highlight of every Democrat's campaign starting today. Trump just effectively gave the corporate version of a pardon to the most hated company on the planet. Absolutely no one supports this.

I also think - and this is something I see each time I travel with work - the US doesn’t understand how much soft power it is losing. Absolutely haemorrhaging it each week. The common theme is, all that talk about freedom, and you gave us that guy twice.

No, you don't have to do that. It's just where my brain went.

These ducks need to be slow walking away from an explosion.

Is he melting?

It’s fucking annoying that one of the biggest forces keeping daylight savings around is the golf course lobby. I really can’t wait til we abolish that sport and take back all that land and create a golfer gulag

me paying $30 in gas to buy imported things that have been hit with tariffs bc joe rogan is learning about politics at age 58

We started with restrain ICE. Then reform ICE, then landed squarely on abolish ICE.

But I’ve moved on to prosecute ICE y’all. Every last one even if it takes 20 years of trials.

Can't even read...yet.

You got to stop saying you’re the richest country in the world…
You’re a country with a powerful minority of very, very wealthy people who have no intention of letting you tax them.

We were just watching that. He's always a treat when he hosts.

I saw a whole thread of hilarious shit kids asked their parents where the parents would 100% rather be explaining the gays.

Now that I kind of understand what price cycling is, I don't understand why this applies to certain states and not others. I always thought this was just common practice everywhere. I'm confused why certain states are known for it over others.

I'm almost impressed at how much rage I can sustain at this point, even as I know it will ultimately destroy me.

A rufous hummingbird sits on a red feeder perch. His throat is bright orange+red. A green lawn and a tree are in the background.

The rufous hummingbirds here for spring! Eeeeeeee!

Have you TRIED organizing cats?

I give up, Claude is conscious. Ergo AI developers must face imprisonment or execution for performing medical experiments on their living slave.

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

Benjamin Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin.
