I didn’t needed to cry more (or did I) But this is absolutely beautiful youtu.be/jMYm0-xrv3I?...

It’s been a while since my political science classes but I remember that people generally don’t like it when the government starts doing overtly brutal shit to people who remind them of themselves

iirc they tested other chatbots. claude outright categorically refused and others only dipped toes in for said prompts

Correct, Claude was the only one to refuse all our prompts asking to "undress" a picture of a woman. ChatGPT wouldn't put her in a swastika bikini, but had no issues putting her in a normal bikini.

i am sick of everything that lacks courage. basically.

Iran has been in a nationwide internet blackout for over twelve hours.

For some reason Sogno di Volare has always made me cry, and it continues to this day. There’s something so poignant about it.

Yesterday an ICE agent shot & killed Renee Nicole Good in broad daylight. Today JD Vance defended that officer & said ICE agents have “absolute immunity”. A few hours later CBP shot a man and wife in their vehicle in Portland. Vance emboldened them. This was inevitable.

It's been barely one week since we've started off 2026 and in that time: 1.) The U.S. bombed Venezuela and abducted Nicolas Maduro 2.) ICE has shot three people in the last 24 hours 3.) President Dementia now says he wants to do a "Sicario" from the hit movie "Sicario"

NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no prior convictions (no matter how minor) and no pending criminal charges.

I know, I don’t know much beside WW2. But genuinely this feels like the imperialist campaign of the Nazi before Poland. Just pure imperialism and disregard for international law being met with little to no consequences until one day alliances and it becoming unfathomable that it starts a world war.

And Mexico has the right to shoot back

Basically, 2024 was viewed, perhaps understandably, by elites as a referendum on public morality and interpreted the results, again perhaps not without justification, as “Piggies go oink.”

Wow – legalizes single-stair up to six stories *and* wheelchair-sized elevators (cuts the stretcher requirement). Does anybody have any contact with the legislators or their staffers? I'm interested in talking to them...

En 1896, le vélo était déjà un symbole confrontant ; il venait bousculer les codes de la mobilité. Accessible et pas cher, la pratique du vélo propulsait l'autonomie des citoyens, tout en leur permettant de se réapproprier les espaces en ville. Comme quoi, plus ça change, plus c'est pareil.

For a famously boring country we do a lot economically interesting shit like leaving bretton woods first and being the only developed country with a floating exchange rate for like 3 years

"Trump is at once a symptom of this disease and its apotheosis, a living representation of all the ways the United States has encouraged, tolerated and rewarded the most selfish and antisocial behaviors imaginable"

Not good.

a) fuck yeah, this is the kind of thing that needs to be happening worldwide and is not coincidentally the sort of thing that will actually blunt Reform UK's momentum b) can we preemptively ban all the transphobes who are going to flood over here, please

Article I, RIP.

Elon Musk’s chatbot has been used to generate thousands of sexualized images of adults and apparent minors. Apple and Google have removed other “nudify” apps—but continue to host X and Grok. www.wired.com/story/x-grok...

Yale Law School never beating the “they don’t teach law at Yale” allegations

especially young women, who are like, turbolibs 19thnews.org/2025/10/gen-...

It's hard to understand why Google & Apple haven't removed the X app from their app stores. Any other app spreading this type of content would have been banned already.

The logic of this administration, since the beginning, has been the logic of right-wing grievance media, which is to say that they only response they can imagine to anything is to keep ratcheting up the rhetoric, to keep escalating the claims, to never, ever, ever back down or acknowledge a mistake.

South Korea’s search for 'gender discrimination against men' It is an ironic policy focus in a country with one of the worst records on women’s rights in the industrialized world and one that is consistently criticized for making insufficient efforts to address gender inequality.

Tbh it’s interesting that 2021-2023 kinda revealed why voters in developed democracies have tolerated poor wage growth for so long: they’re much more likely to blame themselves than structural forces

The murderer’s name is Jonathan Ross. www.startribune.com/ice-agent-wh...

American netizens are devising ingenious puns to avoid the country's pervasive online censorship.

This is also becoming enough of a crisis that the admin is having to send out the VP to talk about it.

Democrats should run on the fact that their opposition is literally killing Americans and destroying the country. It’s not hyperbole. That’s the message they should be blasting out to media every day. They are killing Americans and destroying the country. They hate our freedom. They hate democracy

this has been pretty obviously true since the inauguration

you know what would be a genuinely useful site? "Was It Better or Were You Younger?" just take various elements of life and look at the actual facts of the past. because it is true of some stuff! but generally much less than nostalgia and aging leads us to believe

pepe le pew is an unrealistic depiction of a French intellectual because he only pursues adult cats.

Kinda seems like a Rockstar employee is giving us a heads up here. Insider trading is often the only reason many of these markets provide predictive value at all, which is why I said the practice is a feature, not a bug. Does not make them any less immoral. Also: PLEASE DON'T DELAY GTA6 AGAIN.

"Lors de l’opération, trois policiers ont été blessés alors que deux véhicules du SPVM arrivés en renfort sont entrés en collision, affirme l’agent Jean-Pierre Brabant."

Mesdames et messieurs, le SPVM. Des budgets records année après année, ça donne ça : tous les mangeurs de beignes à 10km à la ronde accourent pour se désennuyer de leur basic bullying, tellement excités qu'ils se rentrent dedans en char, s'autopoivrent et tirent tout croche. Cue la 🎵 de Benny Hill.

Dora the Explorer is older than ICE

gonna have to break out the old 'Hungarian policeman' jokes for these fuckers.

This is going to sound crazy but criminal obstruction charges will need to be strongly considered by Minnesota against a large number of federal officials.

"This was a family that could've been like mine" -- Philip Bump breaks down crying on MS NOW when talking about the stuffed animals in Renee Good's car when she was killed

Ongoing and obvious reminder that firing chemical weapons directly at people's heads like this *is* deadly force.
