I’ve been saying this for years.

why is it that there’s no liberal media distribution network? take a look at free streaming services for example like plutotv. last I checked there were 4 or 5 right wing free propaganda networks right there available to anyone with a stream stick, smart tv, or internet browser. know how many I saw for left wing viewers? one. and it’s production quality is night and day to the other side, as in the right wing nets were the day and the left wing one was somewhere above a good cable access show.

there are many liberal minded people who go on these “friendly” cable news shows and complain endlessly about fox, and outlets like the daily wire, oan, newsmax, and content creators on the various streaming outlets. but you know what my major fucking issue is with those people?

THEY ALL HAVE THE MONEY TO COUNTER ALL OF THIS. MANY OF THESE PEOPLE ALSO HAVE THE MEDIA EXPERIENCE TO MAKE IT WORK.

I’m sorry, but I am sick and goddamned fucking tired of a bunch of liberal elitists who go around removed to everyone who will listen about how bad democratic messaging and talking point distribution is and refuse to lift a fucking finger to do something about it. in my mind they are as culpable of the right wing disinformation era we’re in right now just as much as those who spread it. until they themselves do something about it they are dead in me. get out and do some work yourself or just shut the fuck up since that’s essentially what you have been doing.

and don’t talk to me about air america radio. the idea was sound but executed extremely poorly if you call that execution at all. at the start of the network, run by not-radio people, it had more writers on staff than they did on air talent, including the people who read the news at the top and bottom of the hour. it was a venture doomed to failure because the people who owned and ran it had no idea what they were doing.

so because the people who know how to or know the people who know how to get the message out in a 24/7 manner chose to literally not put their money where their mouths were, we will descend into right wing religious race based fascism. but don’t worry. they’ll still advocate for us on that famously well known liberal media from the comfort of their homes in their gated communities.

clearly she’s setting herself up to be the antimaga standard bearer. her problem is that even without trump, there’s not enough rational republicans left in the party. what the party is going to do now is continue to purify itself to be more maga. if it’s not going to be trump again (and remember, there’s no law or constitutional restriction that says felons, incarcerated or not can’t run for or be elected president), the next charismatic magat is going to be the next nominee. because the most rabid, reactionary, and active member of that party are all magats.

oh, so you are admitting that you have no idea of the circumstances that you are commenting about?

the greatest democracy where when the candidate either knows the law and doesn’t comply with them because of arrogance or doesn’t know the law because her party and her candidacy were and always have been absolute unserious jokes, it’s not the candidate’s fault or the party’s fault. it’s the democrats’ fault because to you people it’s always the democrats’ fault even though the democrats had zero involvement in stein fucking over her own campaign.

or do what the democrats did and officially nominate your candidates outside of the convention.

he gave them to people that the fbi said shouldn’t have them. scotus said he could do anything officially he wants. so why would he bother with a screening process? he’s going to give them to whoever he wants to anyway.

I honestly didn’t think it was the meat. the only unique topping on that sandwich is the onions which aren’t used for anything else as an uncooked item. if it was the meat I think more people would have gotten sick.

let’s hope so.

somebody used my email address to order stuff from temu. the only reason I know about this is because paypal sent me a notice saying they were tracking my order.

fortunately for me, my paypal information (other than my email) wasn’t breached. after I notified paypal they told me they would monitor my account for suspicious activity and they hadn’t noticed any. and as it turns out neither was my email. I’ve got 2fa turned on and never got a suspicious notification.

if it’s that easy to use any email to order stuff these companies are showing they have no security and need to go.

the profanity flies frequently at my place of work. we do give writeups if our employees are saying that in front of customers.

except for me, because I don’t curse (out loud). in fact if I start doing it everyone around me would actually be worried if I was okay.

any images I upload are either already found online or if they are images I took scrubbed of location information in the metadata plus I don’t put my face online. my face is on my fb page and a few pictures have my face in them but as far as I’m aware there’s less than 10 pictures of my face online.

as a kentucky resident he won’t be missed. he has been an active part of making the state worse.

yes. next question.

all of these polling aggregation sites regardless of the quality of the the poll will include the data in their forecasts. how many poison pills do you have to put in the water supply before the entire thing is poisoned?

these operatives figured out well before the eggheads who refuse to question or change their methods that by flooding the zone with shit polls, they not only generate buzz for the results of the poll but they are poll by poll changing the reality that the lazy, access political media will breathlessly SCREAM IN ABSOLUTE TERROR that trump is gaining on harris. these junk polls are simply a method of simultaneous voter suppression and boosting on a race probably only really close in 3 states.

these people are all a galaxy wide and a half micron deep. just brush them lightly and they bleed profusely.

the correct answer is there should be no tips and those workers should be paid the same amount as every other worker.

I honestly don’t think twitter will ever go away until all of a majority of all major sports teams and leagues, a majority of legislative body members, and major news and wire services have a sustained and active presence on bsky. it right now is literally coasting on everything that made it useful pre 2022 and every stupid fucking thing elon has done to make the twitter experience worse hasn’t done enough to cause a critical mass of people to jump.

once you see major popular twitter accounts like rex chapman, mark hamill, taylor swift and the like (and I say this not because of their politics but because of their massive follower base) regularly post on bsky you can probably start closing the book on twitter.

probably not.

unless the planet is water all the way down, I don’t think it’s possible to have life or even submerged landmasses that don’t have the chemical elements that can create salts. dead things would dissolve in the water and chemicals in rocks will leach into water over time.

now if this water planet is far enough away from the sun to freeze, sure. the frozen ice should be all fresh. I’m not aware of any salts that stay in frozen water ice. the stuff underneath the frozen stuff most definitely will be salty.

not a chemist or chemistry major but I’m using the word “salts” deliberately. there’s more types of salt than NaCl.

well dipshit it wouldn’t have been released before the election if you didn’t stall and contest literally everything in this case. this is quite literally your own damn fault.

my 2011 toyota camry.

it’s also the best car I’ve ever owned, probably because it’s the only car I’ve ever owned.

you assume too much.

she is not a member of an ongoing genocide. that would be the government of israel, specifically benjamin netanyahu and his war cabinet. they are using the weapons we gave them to defend against iran in a conflict disproportionate to the way they were attacked and they are disinterested in paying us the united states any attention with requests and demands unless trump gets in who will allow netanyahu to act in gaza without restraint.

so tell me, which one do you want, someone who will use all the soft power we have to influence israel’s actions, or do you want someone who will allow israel to make what’s going on in gaza look like a water gun fight and then target the west bank next?because don’t you dare believe that gaza will be the end of this.

i am also black. I early voted. I didn’t vote for her because she’s black. I voted for her because she’s not a wannabe dictator, a 34 time felon, a credibly accused insurrecionist, a credibly accused thief of government documents, a racist, a bigot, a narcissist, an adjudicated rapist and sexual abuser, an adjudicated con artist, an adjudicated tax fraud, showing severe and obvious signs of mental decline, and is the only person who has the ability to be president since literally every third party candidate is not on enough state ballots to constitute the necessary 270 electoral college votes needed to become the president.
