Joe Rogan calls trans people "f**king perverts" & blames them for school shootings - LGBTQ Nation He's the world's most popular podcaster.

Remember how Joe Rogan was "just asking questions" about trans women and sports and didn't have a problem with trans people otherwise?

He's now a full on anti-trans genocidal fascist.

There is a reason you hold the line at sports.

the problem with Markwayne Mullin is not that he doesn’t have a college degree, or that he worked in plumbing, or that he has a compound first name

the problem with Markwayne Mullin is that he is cruel and prejudiced and willfully ignorant and without principles of any kind

let’s focus on that

We need to structurally separate user data from applications so that applications become *users* of data rather than *containers* for it.

oh, no, the allies refused to stop until they got rid of bonaparte; they even jumped right back into war mode when he came back from elba
no compromise peace would have seen the bourbons back on the french throne

Brian McGinnis' wife has
NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital.
He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries.
Legal counsel has also been denied access.
A Marine veteran.
A firefighter.
A father of four.
And his family still cannot see him.

so apparently Brian McGinnis has been denied access to both his family and legal representation since a sitting senator broke his arm

Eyeing Voting Rights, Liberals Aim to Secure Wisconsin’s Supreme Court through 2030 - Bolts After flipping the court in 2023, Wisconsin liberals now hope to expand their majority on a body that could be a critical backstop for voting rights during the next presidential election.

Maria Lazar, the conservative candidate in Wisconsin’s supreme court election:

- Ruled in favor of election deniers seeking private health info to prove voter misconduct
- Was endorsed by key players in the bid to overturn the 2020 election
- Defended GOP gerrymandering and voter ID requirements

A man stands beside a grand piano. Thin, with sharp cheekbones and short dark hair styled upward. He wears a formal suit: a light-colored jacket with dark lapels, a shirt, and a tie. One hand is in his pocket, the other hangs at his side.

The lighting is warm, orange-red, like a stage washed in sunset-colored spotlights. His face is lit from below, which makes his eyes look narrow and tense.

Behind him stretches a long shadow. It is distorted: elongated, with ragged edges and shapes that resemble flames or fragments breaking apart. Inside the shadow are round forms that look like coins or bubbles.

The grand piano stands next to him with its lid raised. Dark stains and rough texture are visible on its surface, as if the paint has chipped in places.

The composition is angular, built from sharp geometric planes and strong contrasts of light and shadow. The dominant colors are orange, red, dark blue, and black.

The thing about all these freak AI execs constantly going "our machine may have gained sentience?!" is that they want slaves. That they are ok with slave labor.

And *then* it always, always turns out their latest AI trick actually used slave labor somewhere in the global south.

They're slavers.
