People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

This is beyond laziness, laziness is about priorities, this is greed and sloth. They want something for nothing. These passionless fucks just want to be given what they want with out them even asking.

Prompters discovering there isnt a shortcut to sayisfying art, in real time. There is only... the Way of Pain.

"We have a first amendment right to coordinate our market activity" is not going to be a viable claim, guys

The age of generative AI is truly the age of people just casually, with zero shame, discussing on public forums how thinkie hurtie bwainie.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

The modern world is just pro wrestling and a gambling addiction standing on top of a mechanical Turk.

This is the last photo of that sweet couple of Hooded Mergansers I took on that cloudy day. 🪶

As residents of the western Ukrainian city of Ternopil face bombardment by night, and wreckage by day, they share their anger at an American peace proposal that many say favors Russia above Ukraine n.pr/3KmqMmr

Monday huh? Do I have to? #birds 🌿 (a young hawk, maybe Red-shouldered?)

Moments ago: tenants of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided at the end of September held a presser to announce they're forming a tenants union. They're demanding, among other things, sewage removal and heat and electricity restroration. More updates TK.

6 people have died from a nationwide listeria outbreak. 31 babies have been hospitalized with botulism from contaminated baby formula. Instead of firing crucial FDA employees & attacking the agency, Trump should be hiring more experts to crack down on these dangerous outbreaks.

Grippers engaged! The next photo in the series. (Red-tailed Hawk) #birds 🌿

I love blackbirds because they just look like the platonic ideal of a black bird that exists in my head

116 legal and policy experts have now opposed Labor’s new powers for police to recommend cutting payments from people without them even having been convicted of a crime. Cops shouldn’t be anywhere near welfare law and Labor should withdraw this amendment. www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/treat...

Things got a little Hairy for the Blue Jays today😂 #birds

11 years ago today, 12 year old Tamir Rice was gunned down by police officers on Cleveland’s west side. The officer shot him within seconds of arriving at the park he was playing in. Tamir’s life mattered. It still does. My thoughts are with his family today.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

Pardoning Nixon, moving beyond Watergate, brought us his henchmen for decades. Democrats aren't being magnanimous about letting bygones be bygones. They are being cowards. Holding people you know to account takes bravery, that they lack. So we need to make them do it kicking, dragging, & screaming.

Watching a video by the great Flint Dibble talking about Elon Musk. It brought up a thought I’ve had several times. Eugenicists like Musk keep wanting to have kids to spread their genes they see as superior, they want to breed the “smart people”, 1/4

Raise your hand if you're sick of the internet being filled with 1) liars and grifters 2) fake AI slop 3) bogus conspiracy theories Resist it by engaging and boosting truthful, fact-based content. We have to act deliberately to retrain the algorithmic gremlins Your thoughts?

not the best pic but the Squirrel's expression just cracks me up...a very "get out and stay out!" vibe😂

There are still a few Swans hanging around in Southern Manitoba...pretty late in the season but there is still open water so I suppose they are not in a rush☺️ #birds

Oh come ON little Oregon Junco! If they didn't eat so much seed I'd think they were just fey creatures surviving on joy and rainbows. Absolutely perfect birds! #birds #becurious

RFK Jr & his loyal henchmen (the Great Barrington Declaration dudes Jay Bhattacharya & Martin Kulldorff; Martin Makary; Dr Oz; Vinay Prasad) have been successfully dismantling the US vaccination system & achieved the return of deadly vaccine preventable diseases. This is the world they worked for...
