This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen

More palette cleansing. Human and veterinary neurologists team up to come up with a new hydrocephalus surgery with applications to pediatrics. #OneHealth

Every accusation is a confession.

we can also employ our finest pits (tar pits, bottomless pits, oubliettes etc) to their fullest

Lmfao

This is incredible chutzpah when anyone with eyes can look at the video and see that not a word of this is remotely true.

Since last year, Trump admin planned what to do if ICE agents were accused of crimes (even murder): Protect them “no matter what." Trump laid out ways to retaliate: —Refuse to hand over an agent —Charge local officials with “obstructing" —Threaten to cut off more funding led by @swin24.bsky.social

The no-angeling is already in full swing.

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

there we go, that’s a headline

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD IN THE UNIVERSE PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

Wrote a piece for @slate.com explaining that states have a long history of prosecuting federal officers when they allegedly use excessive force. Federal officers are only immune from such prosecutions when they act reasonably in carrying out lawful duties.

Community members have put up barricades on the street in Minneapolis where ICE shot and killed Renee Good yesterday morning. Protests and vigils have spread across the city and throughout the country in the aftermath of the fatal shooting by a federal agent

Fox News host calls masked Minneapolis protesters "cowardly"; co-host says ICE agents are also masked but "that's for a different reason: they don't want to get doxed."

Fuck the Cubs!

tip for parent management: my parents were asking me about chatGPT, and have some friends who love it, and none of my attempts to caution them were as successful as just sending them the Wikipedia page for AI hallucinations

Also: " Border Patrol officials also plan to send all nonlethal weapons housed in Chicago to Minnesota, according to the documents."

I agree with the conclusion here, but one thing I will gently add is that the parenthetical ‘England and Wales’ at the bottom of this graph is incredibly pointed, as is the 2005 starting range. The U.K. police have shot a lot of people in Northern Ireland.

New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant “This is a very dangerous tool in the hands of an out-of-control agency.” www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

Hey, did you know that Greek lost the phoneme /h/ because of secularism? You see, /h/ intrinsically symbolises the Creator. And hydrogen. This journal is published by @springernature.com , and is hosted by @nature.com. How did this incoherent nonsense make it into print?

My main memory about January 6 was that for weeks leading up to it antifascists accurately predicted what would happen and were told that “everyone should stay at home and ignore them”

Britt needs your help. They are homeless and disabled. They cannot work or otherwise raise funds for themselves. They #URGENTLY need funds for meds, critical bills, and shelter. Please share and donate now to help save lives 💕💸 🧿 #MutualAid #HelpSky #HelpFolksLive #BIPOCMA #NightSky #Help

trans women are not women you can hit. no woman is a woman you can hit. stop hitting women.

I do not agree with the statement that we aren't seeing mass mobilization in the US against Trump's actions in Venezuela. There is mass mobilization in every city where ICE and CBP are operating. Do not confuse mobilization with marching and protests. Not everything is designed for spectacle.

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

Highly recommend reading this story about a reporter casually finding out his wife is a world Tetris champion: archive.boston.com/news/globe/m...

Please keep Britt safe this week! #MutualAid #HelpSky

We literally lost everything. Rebuilding life after that is exhausting and scary. But your support reminds us we are not alone. Every share, every donation matters more than you know.

Lots of folks talking about the corporate implications of this and, yes, true, there's obvious security concerns there. How do we feel about making jewellery that spies on you 24/7 from an abusive relationship angle, though?

So- all the CSAM stuff aside, why are people ok with letting a man that has done blatant data theft and participated in govt surveillance have all their data thru Twitter?

We're now £138 away from completing what our family needs.😓 Your kindness and support have carried us this far & we are deeply grateful. If you’re able to help, it truly means everything to us🫶 Thank you for standing with our family and for not leaving us alone in this journey❤️ gofund.me/0a1a936d9

I strongly feel that the difference between "I am making naked images of children" and "I have created a program that makes naked pictures of children when people ask it to" would not be as strongly apparent if it were not a billionaire doing it.

your feed has been blessed by the 3rd rail anti-icing work train. RT if you too are anti-ice

i cannot possibly be the only one who simply does not want to be recorded & monitored all the time by even my loved ones, to say nothing of strangers & coworkers. even my most lovable coworkers are sometimes people i wouldn’t let in the house to pet my cats—and that’s best case, non-abuser scenario.

The first two hours this morning

Reporter: Did you speak with the oil companies before the operation? Did you tip them off? Trump: Before and after. They want to go in and they’re going to do a great job.

are we actually 100% sure that Gemini and ChatGPT can't do this or is this purely about how Grok, being a twitter account, disgorges the things it does directly into twitter (and thus is used as a form of harassment).

keir starmer has said the child sexual assault imagery on x is 'disturbing' but that the government isn't going to do anything about it. just in case you needed reminding that the 'online safety act' is about state surveillance and censorship and has nothing to do with keeping children safe.

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders

Baraa has lost two daughters to Israel's ongoing genocide, please help her keep her remaining child Ibrahim alive through winter as Palestinians are left homeless & starving in winter rain. GFM shut her last fundraiser, so she's had to start from scratch. She needs treatment for malnutrition:

It is very funny to me that these guys support gender-affirming care, but only for cis people because reasons I guess. My colleague @oriion.bsky.social wrote about the admin’s moves to expand access to testosterone recently. 19thnews.org/2025/12/test...

See I knew that the Right could be brought around to supporting gender-affirming care as an expression of autonomy and human dignity (well, kind of)

I wish cis people understood that this is the point of gender roles…

When it's the first light on the fifth day of the year.. But it's also Monday.

Immigration is hard family separation is traumatic, I'm so privileged compared to many immigrants and this is still too much to handle and I don't understand how anyone could go thru this and then be so devoid of empathy and compassion they would pull the ladder up behind them

absolutely disgraceful to not once mention civilians, civilian casualties, the fact that at least 80 people are believed to have been murdered
