Today's news and jokes

@chaetognathian I started an experiment with a small water pond on my deck, and the fish were apparently plucked out the first day.

Propaganda. We thought that it was gauche and problematic to have government propaganda about public accomplishments and so people forgot about them. People consistently like the military more than ‘the government’ and you know what a large part of that is? They have an advertising budget.

if you are cashing a check from a billionaire to write lukewarm hogwash that trades on your self-identification as a socialist while meaningfully misrepresenting important issues around solidarity, dignity and workers’ rights, maybe ask yourself… why is a billionaire writing me a check for this?

Wild to live in a time when there are more active TV shows than any one person could possibly watch, yet the programming on every cable channel is just 22-hour blocks of THE OFFICE reruns and Marvel movies and reality slop.

i wear roundy glasses. i was standing outside a pub in the middle of the day & three drunk women came out dressed up to the nines. one of them fell flat on her arse. i awkwardly shuffled, indecisive about whether to intervene. her friend seeing this shouted "even harry potter wouldn't help you up!!"
