Friday Night Funk 'n Wagnalls

quoting to pin this. please help people directly affected if you have the means to.

During the Rwandan genocide the US refused to call it genocide to avoid a legal obligation to intervene. The Clinton admin blocked UN reinforcements, reduced peacekeeping forces, and delayed arms embargos. History repeats.

I spent 5 months making the best TEKKEN club/rave Mix I possibly could. It spans the series' entire history, showcasing the breadth of BANGERS this franchise has. Linked in the comments below! (RTs appreciated ❤️)

A few months ago I mentioned to a reporter that subjecting civilians to a subsistence diet can be a genocidal act according to the Rwanda Tribunal. They were perplexed so I explained that "slow death" can quickly turn into rapid mass death. I fear that's where we are.

To recap, Rubio kidnapped hundreds of Venezuelans, many of them without a criminal record, and swapped them for 10 Americans incarcerated in Venezuela, including a man convicted of three homicides in Madrid.

“A Times investigation: As west Altadena burned, L.A. County fire trucks stayed elsewhere. …only one L.A. County fire truck was west of Lake Avenue, where nearly all of the deaths took place.” Via @Rjaellis @seangreene89 latimes.com/california/sto…

“FEMA Search & Rescue chief resigns after frustration with the Texas flood response + Trump’s efforts to dismantle the agency… unable to quickly mobilize critical resources in the first hours of the flood…” cnn.com/2025/07/21/pol…

More than half of registered Democrats disapprove of their party's congressional leaders' handling of their job, according to a new poll. The DCCC raised a record amount of lobbyist cash in the first six months of this year, we report: readsludge.com/2025/07/22/whi…

You know...if you're a civil servant and there is deadly sectarian bloodletting occurring (with some believing your gov is adding fuel to the fire), maybe your last tweet shouldn't be implying that it's Islamophobic to not let x group attack y group. Just saying

Im at Tesla diner. I have no hair on my body and I dont have any teeth and i have burnt the palms of my hands raw. I order the Epic Bacon. Card declines. i swipe again. Card declines once more. “So finicky these th” a great hot yellow light engulfs the diner, followed by silence

if they ever make a bleeding kansas movie they should cast ed harris (or woody harrelson?) as jim lane

being sick and blowing your nose so hard you feel like there's brain in the ejecta >>>>

just woke up to a thousand notifications bc i posted about jacobin

as i have been saying, the pivot from "generative" to "agentic" AI is just about making chatbots the primary interface through which people use the internet. the tech doesn't have to get better for that to work - the old interfaces just have to get worse, and they already are

I understand that they’re pulling out all the stops to be able to do the final solution but even so we are seeing levels of liberal psyops I couldn’t have imagined. “Genocide is my autistic special interest” absolutely amazing

highly recommend this for anyone interested in a theoretical/historiographic approach to plantation labor and capitalism. probably the most trustworthy account of it ive come across. a well grounded anchoring point into the major debates and presents a very compelling framework

what the fuck is wrong with you??

It seemed if this immigration/dignity bill passes, US will resemble a lot like Singapore or HK, the existence of legal workers (domestic live in help in HK ~$700/month) who work then go back to where they came from without any social/retirement benefits. immigrationforum.org/article/the-di…
