In celebration of World Octopus Day, we wanted to revisit one of our favorite cephalopod sightings, the glass octopus — Vitreledonella richardi filmed during a month-long #PhoenixIslandsCoral expedition in 2021.

Yes. All because of felon predators.

Whenever you feel alone remember that there are a lot of people in your life that can barely tolerate you but they do anyway

So in 2015 Trump started yelling FAKE NEWS and now he finally has it. Yelled it so much it came into being. So will the Dems call attention to this? Or will they somehow lose the messaging war on this one too just like they're somehow losing the messaging war to actual pedophiles.

This is great. The absurdity of this moment captured. Make it go viral.

you know what? if the admin wants to make this fucking prick the face of their terror campaign against my city, they can go right ahead

I hate thinking about politics this way, but it's really hard to escape the hypothesis that a lot of well-connected people being vastly more racist than they'd publicly admit is why we are where we are.

Twitter absolutely cooking brains.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

bond in the books is the kind of guy who would be *just* smart enough to not listen to Joe Rogan, but he would very much understand the appeal.

the best parts of the actual bond novels are bond having a kind vague yuppie ennui that he tries to fill with sex and booze. there’s one bit where he gets really into health food. 2025 bond is a former delta operator who in between working for SOG or blackwater bounces between Pilates, CrossFit, etc

I asked a Christian baker to write Charlie Kirk on a gay wedding cake and we've been staring at each other for 39 straight hours now

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

Turn off location permissions for as many apps as you can. (3/4)

You can't raid and arrest everyone in an entire apartment building, or even legitimately get a warrant to do that, any more than you could for a whole neighborhood. That would be a general warrant. This is the most specific core the-British-did-it-to-us thing the Fourth Amendment is written to ban.

The year is 2003. 17-year-old Stephen Miller is sitting in the back of a school bus talking about torture, as in “Torture is a celebration of human life and dignity." Miller looks directly into the camera and describes the torturing Iraqis in gruesome detail, as his peers laugh uncomfortably.

What does it say about a movement when it is built entirely upon brazen lies?

“These people want to settle accounts with two and a half centuries of democracy (starting with their own): with human rights, civil rights, women's liberation, the end of true patriarchy, the hegemony of the state in the use of force and weapons, the law as the equal rule for all.” 1/2

“You kill people and break things for a living” is one of the most insane sentences I’ve ever heard

David Cross folks.

I do not want the video. I will never watch the video. I usually won’t even give the video the effort of complaint. I just want to read the news story. Give me the text. This would be my Ted Talk but that would be text too.

Just to recap, the actual president found an AI-generated video of a fake news report depicting a fake announcement about an imaginary healthcare system based on a technology that doesn’t exist and posted it on his official social media account

Kind of ironic here that Clinton was actually trying to search for away for "us" to live with these people, as Klein claims to want.

Here it is. She was right.

Here are two of the most influential people in liberal media, David Remnick and Ezra Klein, telling each other outright lies about what the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate said because years of exposure to conservative grievance media pounded the original facts of the case out of their skulls

EINHORN: ".. The numbers that are being thrown around are so extreme that it’s really, really hard to understand them. .. ".. there’s a reasonable chance that a tremendous amount of capital destruction is going to come through this cycle.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Yep, this is exactly what I'd have expected. Great article from Ken.

“My ‘The 90s in Palm Beach were a different time!’ t-shirt is raising a lot of questions about my extensive, decades-long relationship with a prolific pedophile and sex-trafficker who considered me his best friend. But these questions should have already been answered by my shirt!”

One of America's top religion journals uses the title of an infamous white nationalist book to ask whether a dead fascist dictator or Bari Weiss represents a better model for the leader of their Christian conservative political alliance.

Rapture theology - that the holy will be beamed to heaven before a period of tribulation - is a concept younger than the steam-powered locomotive. It's neither widely accepted as a Christian doctrine nor widely believed outside the United States.

Kind of important finding.

More than anything else, I object to this president stealing our time and attention. We can’t even have a Sunday morning without hearing about some insane thing he said and wondering if that insane thing will become real because he’s insane.

This does look like a DM, but Trump has learned that if he does corrupt things privately and they get exposed, that’s bad — doing them openly, you can’t say “REVEALED” or “EXCLUSIVE,” and he believes (with reason, I think) that bad things seem less bad without the stink of secrecy

Insane

Unless I'm reading this badly wrong and the administration puts out contrary implementation, it would appear that starting tonight, anyone with an H-1B who doesn't write a $100,000 check to the US government is banned from reentering the country if they're currently outside the US.

The hoods are off.

Sorry I was late to your wedding, my flight was canceled because my pilot posted a Charlie Kirk quote verbatim in the comments of an Instagram Reel.

Loving Melania entering her Grim Reaper mode. Just needs a scythe!

Calling peoples' employers in a rage because their tributes to Robert Redford weren't horny enough

To sum up: the President is not enforcing the law about TikTok access in order to structure the timing and sale of another giant social media platform to his political allies.

Not that I’m on there to get it first hand but it seems like the journalists and pundits who stayed decided there literally is no line, the owner of the site who *every day* proves how fucking terrible he is can apparently do absolutely anything and they will shrug and scoff at the idea of leaving

Even ignoring how the Dixie Chicks and “freedom fries” were more than 20 years ago, how do these people look at themselves in the mirror with dignity. Is this really it for punditry now? Is it just “you started it” until the end of time, are you all just nine fucking years old now

inevitably, its not just the manosphere follower who fails to make this delicate balance work but also the manosphere *influencer* who eventually becomes bitter and disillusioned by their inability to actually live the lifestyle they're trying to sell to others

this is a good thread but I might actually take it further -- I don't think manosphere shit is actually about getting laid, I think it's literally about male loneliness, by which I mean, men addressing their loneliness via homosocial bonding through misogyny

Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."
