My lone favorite ad on car-radio news avoidaiscams.investright.org

I will also say that it’s a bit wild to me that no press freedom organization or professional journalistic association has tried to contact me or even put out a statement here. I mean Jesus Christ. A little solidarity from institutions would be nice here!

Nothing screams "qualified to oversee the nation's Homeland Security" like hosted a radio show, fought in cage matches, and ran a plumbing business. And let's not forget his other qualification: 2nd dumbest member of the Senate (beaten out by Tommy Tuberville).

Not my dog, just watching her again while my friend is away. She goes back today, and I’m quite sad. She’s without any doubt the best dog I’ve ever met.

I sense twice as many Gen Z dudes will not be getting anywhere near a woman anytime soon www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter www.statesman.com/business/art...

Make it stick.

Oh, hey, @doctorow.pluralistic.net is now on Bluesky!

I keep thinking about how working class people will suffer so much if the price of gas spikes and the government continues to spend $1B/day on international conflict (plus ICE's budget for immigration raids) instead of education, research, international aid, clean energy, and healthcare

As Rachel points out on her Instagram, notice that the guy at the front has a Totenkopf on his quarter zip. That's why Maine Democrats should not let anyone displaying Nazi symbols near the United States Senate

Come on, haven’t we all done this, the odd time? Or if not, haven’t we at least experienced the urge?

Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.

"She frequently reported on stories critical of ICE for Nashville Noticias, the Spanish-language outlet." www.tennessean.com/story/news/l...

I am getting *very* close to getting this thing working! There were some optical bits missing, which, miraculously I was able to purchase, and I just won my fight with a very seized up fan motor.

did this happen after the primary on Tuesday??? lmao oh my god are other transphobe Dems just quitting because they got stomped so badly

Letting Kristi Noem give a press conference before she realizes she’s fired is a pretty hardcore start to white history month

Welcome to Bluesky at last, Cory Doctorow! @doctorow.pluralistic.net

This is exclusively a Vancouver Thing, but TFW spell-correct gives you White Spit instead of White Spot. Son and I are having our weekly breakfast tomorrow at White Spit!

Not the Idoru I imagined, l’m afraid. (Actually the previous sentence can be two, as well.)

Stephen Miller at an international conference about cartels: "These organizations can only be defeated with military power. I see some heads nodding because they understand. You're dealing with a lot of lawyers in your own country, I'm sure. You have my permission not to listen to them."

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

Way mo’ crashes.

A Vancouver councillor wrongly accused of distributing illegal drugs by Mayor Ken Sim says he is considering a complaint to the city’s integrity commissioner and a possible defamation lawsuit. thetyee.ca/News/2026/03...

The lust people have to argue online is in itself a weird bubble. I don’t wake up hoping to have arguments with people, I wake up with the idea that I’m probably going to talk about sports or movies & say weird shit and sometimes arguments arise but usually from annoying assholes, it’s not a virtue

I’ve seen it said that the conclusive proof for innate sexuality is the continued existence of heterosexual women over the age of 30.

Please enjoy the single most amazing quote from a paleontologist I have ever read: “The animal literally cemented itself—and its nether regions—into eternal history like the movie stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.” 🧪 www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-...

A new study examined Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels to see if they could detect changes in his writing prior to his tragic Alzheimer's diagnosis. Here's what the study says, and what it doesn't say 🧪 skepchick.org/2026/03/did-...

Learning that the abundance of Thai restaurants around the world is a direct result of the government of Thailand doing a sort of restaurant diplomacy makes me wonder why America can’t just do that, why can’t we make the burger to end all burgers instead of Henry Kissinger 2

Gonna pick a fight with umpty-zillion people who are hopped up on caffeine and sugar and like it that way

The VA has abruptly ended the only low-interest, affordable loan modification option for thousands of vets who are behind on their mortgages. We want to hear your story.

I didn't expect the "then they came for..." to hit me QUITE so specifically, but lesson learned.

Here's my first edit on the March 3rd Lunar Eclipse. 15 moon shots, 1 foreground. Taken over a 3 hourish period.

*Since you ask, I'm pretty sure that each and every line of scientific inquiry, no matter how abstruse, is capable of yielding some technical method to "destroy the world" *All "potential" is positive and negative potential. Otherwise it isn't even "potential"

Solidly cloudy all day, dark gray, hard drizzle, totally costing us that blood moon eclipse this evening.

Call your reps about this. Every time a book ban has been overturned or shut down, it's because the vast majority of people who believe in the freedom to read spoke up. Find your reps' info at reps.fyi.

Deadwood was and is - if you'll pardon the expression - a fucking masterpiece.

So if Kamala Harris had been elected do you think the United States would be in a war with Iran? Just asking...
