White lady from Midwest here. Can attest those gals have created the most unbelievable.... things... with jello. Particularly the green for some reason. Can't even think of them without getting nauseated...lol 🤮🤮

Lovatnet, Norway Lauri Lohi Photography Good morning

The condor, which had grown splendidly large, remembered the man who rescued it from the brink of death after it fell from the nest as a baby chick, nursed it back to health, and raised it. When visiting, it spreads its wings, rubbing its body against the man as if in gratitude and nostalgia...

Reporter: The FBI is launching a criminal leak investigation into the Atlantic article alleging heavy drinking and erratic behavior from Kash Patel. There was no known disclosure of classified information in article. The FBI has historically been very, very reluctant to investigate journalists.

It’s the way to go. Invest in solar energy.

Mark Zuckerberg built a massive data center in Georgia just hundreds of yards from people’s homes. Now the water pressure is gone. Sinks don’t run. Toilets won’t refill. Homes shake nonstop. Power outages are routine.

right now a big scandal in EMS is that a wealthy neighborhood in Seattle is complaining about HEMS (Helicopter EMS) landings at Seattle Children's Hospital this means helicopters are being turned away by the hospital and sick children are being put at risk fuck rich people.

As the death toll reaches 190, it's time for another reminder that the boat strikes are unlawful under both international and domestic law--and they are a stain on our national conscience. For much more, take a look at this @justsecurity.org collection: www.justsecurity.org/120753/colle...

Good article

YouTube has removed one of my videos because I reported that women can still access abortion pills. I shared *factual & medically accurate* information about women's health—yet the platform says I'm "facilitating the sale of illegal drugs"

The U.S. Department of Justice appears to be preparing to drop a nearly two-year criminal investigation of Tennessee Congressman Andy Ogles, agreeing to return or destroy evidence seized from the diehard MAGA Republican before the FBI got a chance to review it. www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...

Not at all shocked. The VA and Trump 1.0 investigated my Mueller podcast in August 2019. Litigation (still) pending™️

If any historians want to suffer through the Florida Man Version of AP History, here's the document:

Our first-in-the-nation Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives Office is just one step in the ongoing work to build a future where all our communities are safe.

This man genuinely hates the concept of medicine in a way I don't think I've ever seen before

This investigation by @saulelbein.bsky.social is *crazy*

If you’re able, please join me in donating to this defense fund.

And let's remember all the bs these teachers today have to take from a myriad of nasty and helicopter parents, city and state lawmakers, and now more than ever, the feds. I don't know how y'all do it while staying outta trouble...

94% of teachers have to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. 85% of teachers are working second jobs during the school year, often just to keep up with the cost of living. Meanwhile, the average Wall Street employee got a bonus of $246,900 in 2025. Something has gone terribly wrong.

Stephen’s gonna go down fighting. Let’s show him as much support as we can for his remaining three weeks.

When you’ve lost the daily mail

It really is time for more constituents to fight for higher education as a public good. For too long this has fallen to staff and often precarious faculty and postgrads, but parents, politicians, alumni, professionals in general, this is your fight.

I’ll be damned. The Pulitzer board did it. Good on them

I dislike that man so intently. How can people still want to associate with that thing and his personal barbie.

I'm not 70 yet but I talk to my brats about "end" stuff often, despite their attempted refusals to listen. I read something similar last year, and have been culling my stuff ever since. I don't want my kids to have to sort thru unneeded stuff. Yeah, can be hard conversations.
