I can't even. Please take Grandpa's keys AND his pen away from him.

Only if we could learn….

may this define her for the rest of her life. she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired. girl, bye.

Just my opinion, but there should be a constitutional remedy for when the President of the United States addresses the nation and everything he says is either pure lunacy, an unhinged claim or a blatant fabrication. Just like the 25th amendment, but real.

Credit where it's due. I choose to believe all our yelling at them has finally sunk in.

If Artemis is going up then it gives me an excuse to once again post this photo, the only one to contain every human being in the universe but one.

I assume that tonight Trump will head for the exits in Iran. He may try to disguise the retreat by announcing the U.S. is leaving NATO, which Trump will present as a liberation from ungrateful allies and a victory for America First. So he'll make a bad outcome far worse.

Bees sleep between five and eight hours a day. They enjoy company and even hold each other's feet.

I said this in replies elsewhere, but I want to say it loudly here. Anything other than a fullthroated affirmation of birthright citizenship in this country by SCOTUS is an act of treason. It is grounds for immediate impeachment. It is a violation of every oath they have made.

🇭🇺❗️Orban was booed at his own election rally. In response, he broke down, began accusing them of promoting Ukrainian interests.

The Aquarium is saddened by the loss of Ghost, the giant Pacific octopus who was beloved by staff, guests, and those who learned about her online. Ghost died on March 24 after entering senescence, the natural end-of-life process after laying eggs.

Going to war with a country, then immediately floating the idea of lifting sanctions on its oil to prevent your own economic collapse, is the definition of strategic failure

I drilled Thiel’s religion down to a meme: bsky.app/profile/jeno...

Peter Thiel—who played a key role in JD Vance's conversion to Catholicism—just cannot stop talking about the Antichrist. He just took his Antichrist circus to Rome, where an advisor to the Pope exposed the true meaning of Thiel’s bizarre religious delusions. www.thenerdreich.com/peter-thiels...

“They weren’t in June either.”

One problem with shitting on your purported allies is that they don't rush to help you out of the other messes you create.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

Browsing nonfiction library books, flicking past ones like "an amazing thing! Now facing DOOM!" Or "great animals! We're KILLING!" And realized I've become overwhelmed by narratives that make the world seem not worth living in. I want to read books that make me fall in love with the world again

I don’t think this shit will work but i never want to hear about free speech from any trumpers or anti anti trumpers ever again, fuck off forever bsky.app/profile/cram...

I’m not always political, I do enjoy the finer things in life like baby goats doing their thang. Happy Saturday everyone.

Increasingly of the opinion that the correct answer to the Trolley Problem is "fuck you, why are you so fixated on finding reasons to justify killing people?"

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

As I have said since Feb 2025, Trump is in office to solve Putin's problems. How else are you going to ensure that Putin's failed state becomes prosperous? it is already having to be propped up by China.

Pete Hegseth is one Iran update away from showing up smeared in fake blood, war paint and holding up plastic skulls.

Facing a looming Russian invasion of Europe, and an out of control US, Israel, and Iran, France's President Macron announces that France will expand its nuclear arsenal, no longer disclose the size of its nuclear stockpile, and add 8 countries to France's nuclear umbrella.

who made this

Clearly not as outrageous as wearing a tan suit.

I just had an existential crisis start after I read this.

According to WaPo, Saudi Crown Prince MBS, who has invested in excess of $3 bn in Trump family businesses, made multiple private phone calls to Trump over the past month advocating a US attack on Iran, despite his public support for a diplomatic solution. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

If anyone out there needs something to uplift them tonight, I encourage you to watch the NAACP Image Awards, it's nothing but smiles and celebrating Black excellence.

♥️ Hope this brings ya JOY 🪄

Ridiculous. But Trump has definitely got this money's worth from her

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

While we’re debating whether or not Trump called into C-SPAN using a pseudonym to rant about the Supreme Court, let’s not lose sight of how we’re all in agreement this is something he would do and this is the person with the nuclear codes.

It's Sunday, the start of the calendar week, and we already have our presidential wtaf moment.

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647. open.substack.com/pub/jkbjourn...

Allow a persuasive shameless liar convicted of 11 times more felonies than Al Capone to run for president. Expect the most powerful criminal enterprise in history. #TrumpCrimeSyndicate

Only once people admit that the entire Ukraine-Russia negotiations process being orchestrated by the USA/Trump is first and last a sham designed to help Putin as much as possible (and provide massive payoffs to the administration), will people be able to discuss it honestly.

A couple more notes on the minutes. Last year at every meeting until December, the staff forecast called for inflation to return to 2% by 2027. In December, the forecast pushed this back to 2028. But in the minutes for the January meeting, no date is specified for when inflation gets to 2%.

Elon posted this yesterday. Just for fun I did it with my before/after cancer PET scans that I had already posted online. In the "before" scan Grok missed the massive tumor lighting up my liver, and in both scans it flagged a non-existent "area of concern" in my chest. Other than that, works great!

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

i‘m using it for a column but i want to share here this line from lincoln on jefferson because it is applies to our situation as well. you can find it in his april 6, 1859 letter to henry l. pierce.

Even Grok acknowledges that the so-called “Save America Act” (backed by Trump & Musk) may undermine the security of our elections by creating a Single Point of Attack for voter roll maintenance via the Save Program, which links to an SSA database mishandled by DOGE. #NoOnSave #ProtectOurVotes 1/

I have had an interesting time asking Claude Code to write papers and review papers since I suspect that this tool - and other agentic AIs - will be a major challenge (and opportunity) for political science, and wanted to get a better understanding of this. Three thoughts:

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

I get that the real enemy is MAGA and the Republicans, but this guy. This GUY.
