Mikie Sherrill’s state police destroyed the mutual aid tent for families of the detained that had been in operation at Delaney Hall for more than a year, providing clothes, food, even stuffies for the kids. They just trashed it. I’m pretty speechless at the kind of person you have to be to do this

Doing software in 2026 is insane because if you want a coworker to help you, you must first defeat the Lying Machine by asking it to dispense three Lies and providing a clear and concise explanation of why each one is Wrong.

people are sending me important memes

If there is one thing I absolutely believe after watching the supposed inevitability and societal transformation of crypto, of NFTs, and of the metaverse all crash and burn it's that techbro incantations of inevitability are trying to manifest it rather than predict it.

“I don't understand what it's supposed to do. Every time I see a video on Instagram that's like, 'Hollywood is cooked,' what follows is, like, the most stupid dog shit I've ever seen in my life…”

Librarians literally saved my life

Trump allies keep bringing meritless lawsuits against the government, which Trump's DOJ then "settles" for enormous sums of taxpayer money now Trump is personally getting in on it, negotiating with himself for a "settlement" in the *billions* we're being robbed ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

"i need my computer to be my mommy"

Pentagon Comptroller Jay Hurst said the estimate increased “because of updated repair and replacement of equipment cost and also just general operational cost.”

My hate of AI is bottomless and pure, and there is no mewling argument in favor of it in any circumstance that will move me an inch

As a person who co-created a Spider-character for Marvel called Recluse who is a young Black Caribbean woman, THIS IS HILARIOUS!

This is for *your* kids, you understand. The tech elites send *their* kids to private, screen-free Montessori schools. They know exactly what they're doing.

no i'm not bc i don't use that shit. skill issue

it is devastating to notice how few benches there are in the world and how some benches have been replaced by weird "leaning" things. the world is incredibly cruel to disabled, elderly, poor, pregnant, tired, homeless, and all people. there should be benches fucking everywhere for everyone

let's make a cultural value judgment: palantir are a bunch of execrable fascist shitheads and their ideas go against the basis of every civilized country on earth, from which they should be extirpated like the intellectual cancer they are

how adults colonize every third space and remove young people — including the Internet link: dragon-in-a-fez.tumblr.com/post/8134647...

6 boats and 40 people were involved in recovering the astronauts after they splashed down today. Last weekend a search and rescue ship was detained while 70+ refugees drowned in the Mediterranean. The dichotomy of who we show humanity to hurts my soul.

$2 million per ship — to cross a Strait that was free six weeks ago. @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/04/06/w...

just to be clear, everyone, when 8 pm EDT comes and goes, regardless of what does or does not happen, the president still threatened genocide and war crimes and we should still impeach, arrest, and try him

"a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" don't like that one bit from the demented president every single person who helped bring this about, big or small, should carry that shame with them to their graves.

i think this is exactly right and it is part of what i was trying to get at last week when i wrote about the narcissism of the president and his allies. they fundamentally do not believe other people are real, and do not understand the decisions they make.

Y'know what, I'm still with it "War don't sex" that's right brother, peace fucks

This is the best article I read this week. slate.com/business/202...

Oudone Lothirath missed four out of five chemotherapy appointments while in ICE detention and received no medical care there. Now he will likely die in a matter of days. www.startribune.com/how-ice-deta...

Literally pumping my fist in the air, because HELL YEA. and Good fucking riddance too.

Students at over 150 New York City public schools now have to use digital hall passes that will monitor how long a student is spending in the bathroom and harvest data on their behavior.

Shout out to all the guys with charts who told me there was no way we were undercounting while I watched nursing homes and hospitals refuse to test and send my friends’ elderly relatives home to die of “respiratory illness” to keep their official numbers down.

wow we are arriving at the exact situation every single person imagined within one second of seeing their first robot dog

“No to war and Free Palestine.” — Javier Bardem while presenting at the #Oscars .

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

This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon. Part of a lawsuit by @acls1919.bsky.social, @modernlanguage.bsky.social + @historians.org

Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?

to me it rocks that this company that has never come within light-years of making money and has a bad product with zero practical use cases is the pivot point of the global economy because a bunch of embarrassing Burning Man dorks just decided it should be

This is the tech equivalent of painting a picture of a lion, then fleeing in terror.

Demanding people provide irl id and age verification is only step one for pieces of shit like Marsha blackburn. Once they have that in pocket they’ll make LGBTQ stuff 18+ only. And that’ll effectively make it illegal to be an LGBtQ kid on the internet.

This is not just cursed, its monstrous. The digital resurrection of a historian who died in January of this year, all so Grammarly can get some more clicks and engagement from students and/or scholars and/or others. It feels so wrong on so many levels, these ghosts enslaved to AI forever

“direct your anger at trump not the democrats” buddy you are severely underestimating the amount of anger i have available to me

(1) Casey Means is a dreadful nominee and should not be confirmed. (2) I don't have any desire to defend for-profit advertising of any kind. (3) "Obesity is a national crisis" as a message both relies on and perpetuates bias against fat people.

It’d be cool if progressives didn’t point to fat people like “We can all agree this is a public policy failure…”

Gaza is under shelling at this moment. Right now, we are being hit by heavy bombardment!!

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel. “The state wants to see everything. The corporations want to see everything. And they've learned to work together.”

Deep in the forest

Part 2 in my series on perfectionism, anxiety, and hidden labor. Exploring the idea of what it might feel like to let go of the things anxiety tells me to hold on to so tightly my knuckles go white. What might happen? What space and ease might there be for something new? #embroidery #fiberart

If I were a Democrat concerned about winning elections and was hearing that a significant number of voters wouldn’t support Gavin Newsom in 2028, I would simply stop pushing Gavin Newsom in 2026.

I'll believe it when Minnesota folks confirm it. Otherwise I'll assume it's just an Israeli-style ceasefire

This is why domestic "shuffle" flights between ICE detention centers have skyrocketed, much moreso than ICE deportation flights. When you are moved to a different jurisdiction, you have to refile your habeas petition all over again. They want to wear people down so they'll give up on their cases.

Just because good news is worth celebrating: There is now a Prep medication that is an *every six month* injection. HIV has, effectively, a vaccination.

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”
