I joke about this stuff but 15 minutes before the Trump post hit the tape there was a surge in e-mini price and volume. Someone knew and traded.

I feel like folks should definitely use this opportunity to photograph and identify ice officers

Today's #SCOTUS Order List includes a 6-3 summary reversal, in which the Republican appointees all vote, contra the Second Circuit, that qualifed immunity insulates a police officer from damages for using a rear wristlock against a nonviolent protestor. The Democratic appointees all dissent:

Gonna use this one a lot

No exaggeration, I think this is one of the most important stories in US health care. MAHA makes a lot more sense if you see it as a hostile takeover by the quackery industry

[cue this being how the revolution begins with no more TSA Precheck]

a'ight, Imma head out

Is this a bad time to bring up the fact that TSA checks are largely superfluous theatrics and don't make any difference whatsoever in terms of actual security? www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LDz...

This is an excellent summary of the US War on Iran current situation. I’m an existentialist and borderline absurdist and even I struggle with the current moment. This summary is just fantastic.

Not usually one to do this since it's been done to death, but it's been a minute! DHS (thereby, of course, ICE) taking over TSA, with the goal to eventually privatize security, is part of Project 2025. Page 136 of the doc/167 of the .pdf. whatisproject2025.net/wp-content/u...

Some ppl keep @‘ing me like “durr this fertilizer crisis isn’t real look at 2022 prices” I have you smug twerp, look at the associated price spikes in key commodities as a result, there was rationing globally (incl. in the UK thru 2023! www.yahoo.com/news/superma...), there is a world outside the US

Point being, this is an entirely different kind of crisis from 2022, that nobody (including me!) knows how is going to go. Maybe these people are right and it can only good happen, but personally I think that smug privileged bullshit is too smart by half

If you changed your name when you got married, take notice. Under the SAVE Act, your driver’s license wouldn’t be enough to vote. You’d need a birth certificate that matches your current legal name. Most women who changed their name at marriage don’t have that.

The flipside of too many girls going to college to get more knowledge being related to a decline in the perceived value of a degree is that going to jupiter to get more stupider has become valorized as a socially desirable trait

I want fully staffed public pools, and libraries that are cathedrals to public goods and a society where walling yourself off with money is viewed as sociopathic.

Mister Rogers Neighborhood is getting its own YouTube channel for the first time. Fred Rogers Productions has joined forces with social media agency and multiplatform production outfit Little Dot Studios to bring the iconic children's series to YouTube. #misterrogersneighborhood, #PBS KIds...

lol the subtitled translation is fully accurate

first you suck out the curds and then you use your prehensile tongue to extract the succulent nutmeats

I’m old enough to remember when Americans clowned on the Soviets for their internal travel restrictions, domestic surveillance programs, captive news media, and grocery shortages.

LL Cool J stands for Limited Liability Company oooh oooh el jay for the love of god, don’t post this oops too late

I didn't originally plan on this week's YouTube video being nearly an hour long and including me getting scammed, but if there's anything D&D has taught me, it's that plans are nothing to the dice 😅 Watch it now: youtu.be/ingR_pTLZiM

This is a sign that the negotiations aren’t going well for the GOP and that the Dems aren’t about to cave like some have been claiming today

Anyone who has visited a national park always mentions hearing at least half a dozen languages. Foreigners (correctly) fucking love America's natural landscape!

Petrochemical companies can’t be allowed to profit off of Trump’s aggressive, illegal, unconstitutional war.

I generally have little love for the 1970s culture... except for its dystopian movies. So want to marathon the best of those w my oldest this summer. What ones am I missing?? 1. Zardoz 2. Logan's Run 3. Rollerball 4. Westworld + Futureworld 5. Omega Man 6. THX 1138 7. Silent Running (con't)

so if i have this correctly: we've substantially increased the value of Iran's primary export we've made it legal to buy that export for the first time in 30 years and we've made it such that only safe way through the strait is to make a deal with iran masterful gambit

This is misleading. Here's how much the MA Millionaire Tax raised vs the most generous possible assumption of how much combined revenue was lost from millionaire movers.

I went from being a wildland firefighter to wildfire ecologist to labor union organizer precisely because being an ecologist trains you to see interconnections and I concluded that stopping climate change would be greatly helped by building a democratic working class that takes political power.

Guess I know what I'm gonna put on in the background while I do some gunpla building.

Also, speaking as someone whose first/main ttrpg was d&d, I can't stress enough how easy it can be to learn a new ttrpg after that. I'm not telling you to stop playing d&d, but I am suggesting you try new flavours every now and again as a treat.🍩

"It’s not that you don’t drive to work because the price of gas is too high, it’s you don’t drive to work because you lost your job. … If the Strait remains closed, the price is just going to keep rising and rising and rising until you get fewer planes in the air and fewer people driving." Oooof.
