News? From the *television*? What a quaint idea.

Honestly I couldn't tell you the last time I watched an actual newscast. I will cue up a segment on YouTube every once in a while, or via Roku for local stuff. But I might well be able to count the times I did that last year on one hand; and certainly on two.

Ta, Marcie. That Thing in the Offal Office wouldn't know the truth if it bit him on his soggy diapered ass.

Stellar analysis on the TikTok angle. The part about algorithmic control basically turns content moderation into editorial control at scale, which is the quiet part no one's saying outloud. I've worked on recommendation systems before and the power to shape what "truth" people see is kinda terrifying when its in the wrong hands. Once a user's feed gets tuned towards one narrative, breakig out of that loop becomes nearlyimpossible.

my dog did choose me - my dog was the only one in the shelter who came to their door to talk to me - the others were either just barking at random or sleeping. he even got up out of bed to check me out when i went by again and bounced up and down in hello - that was it for me, i'd been picked

Geez, people, we settled this already. The history of Trump's treason is well documented, as will be Trump's conspiracy with his friend, the late Jeffrey Epstein.

I never wonder if they're lies or not.

Everything he says, everything everyone in his cabinet/family/cult says, is 100% a lie.

I don't have to question it. I know.

Also now: CBS (lies)

Holy shit- a convicted J6er who rejected a pardon. Jesse met and interviewed her.

She has integrity, I'll give her that. And I'm glad she woke up.

I was confused by the part of Trump's story where Polish partisans conducted a cross-border raid to attack a German radio station.

I was confused by the part where the Martians attacked New Jersey. Is it *bad* that I said, “Hooray!”?

The level of blatant lying our current leader is doing on a daily basis is so not normal for a functioning democracy. It is, however, common in authoritarian one-party states.

Yesterday, Trump Jaba the Hut impersonator, Odd Slob, seemed to claim ownership of the new /old J6 bullshit content put up on the WH website. Because there was so much backlash response calling out the blatant lies, good old slobber pile of diarrhea, Odd Slob claimed that they owned the libs by baiting them. When in fact, such shitposts only illuminate just how empty they are of any level of intelligent substance.
