The word goon has been ruined for my purposes so guess we're going with Crony this week.
There were so many stories this week entirely caused by Trump Cronies chewing on the infrastructure.
Just gonna say it now, I will have zero shorts out today! (Heck, I’ll probably re-write the description tomorrow)
Somehow this script was over 5k words, and I had to cover everything from midnight judge meetings, open defiance of court orders, Kash Patel gifting ghost guns to foreign officials, fandom drama, and a CEO turning an old meme into a nazis dog whistle over the course of 3 days!
I'm so freaking tired y'all. I didn't even cover the whole thing of Trump threatening to shutdown the entire government unless democrats agree to discontinue healthcare for trans folks.
I didn't talk about how even writing the Sumud Flotilla story or setting up it's image keeps bringing me to tears because I'm so happy people are starting to really fight for Palestinians, but I still can't shake the feeling the same folks aren't fighting for their trans neighbors.
What I did talk about those, well, there was a lot.
Dang y'all, I keep having too much to tell you about as these weeks keep getting weirder!
It's time once again for an episode of Muttday Morning News, Now with more edits, and an interruption from future editing Phenn.
It's not all about the shootings, but, there is a lot. We've got some rumors to fact check, a couple democrats to shame, republicans and even farther right fascists to mock, and a bunch of weird Nintendo and Pokémon news that reminded me of something very important about Nintendo.
We're covering a lot today, from weirdly inept, though no less dangerous, authoritarianism in the US, admittance of a war crime… I almost miss getting to reference press releases instead of DOJ X posts. Oh, also Itch payout concerns, and a featured story Of Banally nested evil around that Visa job posting.
Muttday Morning News Survived a whole month!
Sadly the reward is a really bad news week. Yup, I'm talking about the shooter, hiding our heads in the sand doesn't help. Also talking about the CDC, protests in Jakarta, Newsom being a weirdo, the CO state legislature trying to kneecap it's own ai regularity bill, sorry, it was a freaking week y'all.
But I do have some positive news in the back half.
For the record, this week’s outfit was specifically picked because like 3 commenters told me to button my shirt last episode.
If there’s one thing I refuse to do, it listen to straight men who don’t like boobs
The third episode of Muttday Morning News is here, and while the news out of DC, the Whitehouse, uh, 19 states, the UK, and Gamescom are all bad, I did have a few positive stories this week!
Sadly, cute Pokémon news, Silksong information and a release date aren't doing much to offset the not so slow encroachment of global fascism, so let's get started.
No transcript this time, since I will be adding manual subtitles as soon as I’m done with the therapy I start in, uh 15 minutes
Welcome to the second episode of Mutt-day news, a weekly round up of news stories from the past week, with a comedic bent, at least where possible.
This week, I come to you with dystopian AI news stories, including Meta's now lethal "Big sis Billie." Also this week, some cool new vaccine developments, an arts and culture section, yes covering more itch and payment processor stuff shenanigans, but not just that. The fascism roundup returns, and I have a new section, stuff you can do!
Welcome to the first episode of Mutt-day news, a weekly round up of news stories from the past week, with a comedic bent, at least where possible. This week reporting on the odd confluence of stories around Homestuck, the growing issue centralized platforms like Itch and Stream are presenting in their own right, and a quick fire round up of global fascist policies pushed in just the last 24 hours.
