A grand migration to bluer skies. Find us there.

You can always tell a straight man is telling a Kylie story when seemingly half of it is about Nick Cave.

You can draw a direct line from the failure to hang every last Confederate traitor to the January 6th Payoff Fund, and the correct response to both the CSA and J6 should’ve been to treat them as the traitors they are.

[White Fellas For Kamala 2026 @BeigeFrequency]

Damn bro, I wonder why the generation that feels like they have no future gets upset when you tell them they can't have their one tangible form of relief and enjoyment.

[Sophy Romvari @SophyRomvari]

You wouldn’t ignore the advice of David Cronenberg would you???? 😤

[FireFighterDev @fire_starter457]

MAGA found 34,000 dead people on voter rolls and screamed FRAUD. What they didn’t tell you: ZERO of them voted.
Dead registrations ≠ dead people voting.
This is a known manipulation tactic-give you a scary number, hide the part that proves nothing happened. Don’t be played.

[Alyssa Leader @alittleleader]

People always ask this question and never “do prosecutors ever feel overwhelmed with guilt knowing they’ve put innocent people away?” Or “do prosecutors ever worry they aren’t doing justice when they destroy someone’s life over crimes of addiction or poverty?”

teachers requiring you to submit your assignments as google docs so they can look through the edit history and tell you didn't use ai is killing the "do it at the last minute" crowd.

[Mattie, the Woman Clothed by the Sun @cinemattie]

The Freudian slip in this is WILD...

[Hail Jason! @jshawhan]

Saturday, May 16th:

(Finally) the Nashville theatrical premiere of @PanosCosmatos BEYOND THE BLACK RAINBOW - in 35mm!

At the @Belcourt because no one else would dare.

[Amy @AmysGotBirds]

Lots of things that shitbag Donald Trump does can eventually be undone.

This cannot.

[Reid Southen @Rahll]

Do not under any circumstance submit your biometrics to tech companies for the sake of pseudoscience and astrology, you're smarter than that.

[Nashville Scene @NashvilleScene]

Grace Glowicki’s triumphant, madcap ‘Dead Lover’ will show Monday at the @Belcourt, with an opening set from U.S. Girls. https://t.co/7q4Lk2tQZC

you may have noticed that all prominent right-wing personalities on here are suddenly attacking same-sex adoption, almost as if they received their new directives overnight, but I'm sure it's a coincidence

[Ashok Kumar | 🇵🇸 @broseph_stalin]

Hypothetically, if warehouses keep burning down, insurers could start treating low wages as a risk factor and refuse to cover sites that underpay staff, turning low pay into a direct liability.

[Joseph Fasano @Joseph_Fasano_]

This man's understanding of how GenAI, driven by market forces, leads inevitably to more (self)delusion and consequent division is perfect, and his voice is such an unexpected gift in the otherwise diminishing consciousness and conscience of our world.

[Adrian P 🇷🇴🇺🇦🇪🇺 @AdrianP_doc]

The US is not cutting aid to Ukraine.

It already did that.

The US is stealing critical defense equipment meant for Ukraine already paid for by NATO allies so it can prop up a bullshit war in the Middle East.

[LIT. MAJOR @LITMAJOR_music]

Otherwise known as the Holy Shit Bridget Everett! award.

[Moshik Temkin @moshik_temkin]

This is pretty incredible. Cultural Revolution-type world in which zealous young bros without any real knowledge of anything were destroying the lives and careers of scientists and researchers based on their childish interpretation of what they thought their dear leader wanted.

[Vivian @suchnerve]

Very cool how you never fully get over how it feels to remember we have to share this planet with so many cruel people. Like you’ll think you’ve fully processed it, and then it’ll randomly hit you again, and again, and again, no matter how many decades you’ve had to reflect.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

I don't take any pleasure in saying this, but we can no longer believe our government. There is no more presumption of regularity for government employees in court or in the court of public opinion.
