      [13 people hurt in 2 mass shootings at Minneapolis homeless encampments on the same day](https://abcnews.go.com/US/people-hurt-mass-shootings-minneapolis-homeless-encampments/story?id=125620641)

      > At least 13 people have been wounded, five critically, in two shootings that erupted over a span of 12 hours at homeless encampments in Minneapolis with the city’s mayor saying he wouldn’t be surprised if they are connected.

      > The shootings on Monday marked the fourth and fifth mass shootings to occur in Minneapolis in the past three weeks, including one on Aug. 27 at Annunciation Catholic School that left two children dead and 21 people injured.

      I’m sure this is completely unrelated to a fox news host effectively saying “kill the homeless” surely

      I’m bringing back edgy atheism because liberals are counterculture again

      For example:

      oh my god I don’t give a shit what your imaginary friend says about me having buttsex

      I’ve been writing so much code recently my brain feels like it’s melting out of my ears, and on the one had that’s good because programming is like crack (yum) so I’m having fun, but on the other hand ow ouchie my brain

      Thoughts on Mamdani and the intifada comment months later? Especially as he seems poised to win and has taken steps to discourage the phrase and other acts of political violence? (Kirk shooting, Israeli embassy worker shooting)

      I didn’t like the idea of James Gunn running DC at first but I love this man now. I thought his Marvel movies were meh and some of the stuff I don’t like about his work shows up in Superman but it wasn’t as bad as I was worried it would be.

      He’s absolutely incredible at running the company though. I can’t believe be worked on so much stuff in such little time. Creature Commandos, Superman and Peacemaker. The DCU feels like it has life to it. He’s an artist himself so him not fucking with creatives is gonna be so much fun. I hate how every Marvel movie looks the same. I much prefer the James Gunn approach where there is no singular tone. Directors can do whatever they want really. Matt Reeves has been given unlimited freedom and time with his Batman.

      He’s also doing a podcast that comes out with each episode of Peacemaker. This entire thing is such a nice light while the real world is going to shit. Im gonna be so bummed out when this season ends lmao

      All these right-wing assholes posting, “We are Charlie.”

      You know what? Considering that all it took for you to instantly pivot from your supposed championing of free speech to shitting yourself and clapping like a seal when the FCC leans on a company to self-censor because one of its talking heads committed the crime of

      *checks notes*

      saying that it’s bad for people to instantly jump to the conclusion that the person who committed a violent act was an ideological enemy

      *I agree with you*. You are all worthless, bitch-ass sacks of shit without half a brain between the thousands of you.

      I will never forget or forgive any of this. The way these backwards, willfully ignorant caveman fucks gaslit themselves into thinking they were oppressed by a man who bent over backwards to make bipartisan overture after bipartisan overture to them.
