HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files: Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996. The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed […]

There are not enough words in the thesaurus under "gratitude" to express our thanks.

The more you know.... And of course, they silenced a Black woman.

THANK YOU, Olga. @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social has been calling this out regularly, too.

Imagine serving as a Marine and then having a distinguished career in the FBI investigating actual terrorist threats and then having to go in front of Congress and say you’re afraid of Antifa. Absolutely humiliating.

Need some good #news from the #UnitedStates ? #southsideblooms is the inner-city organization that turns vacated parking lots into cut-flower gardens that provide jobs and income to young people in ‘the hood’. Quilen Blackwell was recognized as ‘Hero of the Year’ by #cnn for making this idea […]

15,000 acres of New York’s Adirondacks has passed from private hands to parkland — and for the first time in 100 years, will be re-opened to the public. 6,000 acres along ten miles of the Raquette River will now allow hiking, paddling and camping, while 9,000 additional acres around the lake are […]

Ten minute walk from my front door.

Huh. Just chatted in person with someone who's been on #mastodon for a while, now, who honestly thought that all the Mastodon domains were run by Mastodon. And having a different domain was, like, just a vanity thing to look cool. It only came up because they were complaining about an issue they […]

So back in 1944, a German U-Boat Commander named Heinz-Wilhelm Eck did exactly what US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth ordered US military forces to do - kill the survivors of a destroyed boat at sea. Now, as then, this is considered a War Crime. In 1945, Commander Eck was tried, found guilty […]

I cannot in good conscience share screenshots of Trump’s white Christian nationalist Thanksgiving day rants but please locate and read for yourselves. Outlets like Reuters try to summarize and they miss the menace and the fascism. For example: Trump is talking about “denaturalizing” “foreign […]

I am an adult. I’m short, yes, but this is ridiculous. The hood on this truck is higher than my shoulder. It forms in 90° angle with the ground. hideous! There’s no way they could see me in the crosswalk. They were double parked. Even with the engine off it […] [Original post on sauropods.win]

Musk revealing the location of MAGA influencers being from Russia, India, and Nigeria proves what we have known all along. MAGA was a foreign psy op — arguably the most successful Putin psy op in history. Let’s make “America First” for real with the world’s best universal healthcare system.

Ohh today’s my fediversary! :bongoCat: #mastodon

Dreeben, attorney for #jamescomey, urged the judge to dismiss the charges against his client on the argument that he's the victim of a "selective & vindictive" prosecution. “This is an extraordinary case, & it merits an extraordinary remedy,” Dreeben, told U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff […]

RE: https://mastodon.social/@mellifluousbox/115569615176946969 I am passing the torch to @mellifluousbox, who will be the new Executive Director. Felix has been involved with #mastodon since 2020 and has been instrumental in evolving the organization, raising funds, and growing the team to get […]

Hi! Today is my first official day as the Executive Director of Mastodon, replacing @[email protected] as CEO. I joined the Mastodon team more than 5 years ago, mostly working for Mastodon in the evenings on top of a 120% day job. I was the driving force behind the incorporation of the […]

My wife’s grandmother gave her this heirloom Christmas cactus over 40 years ago. It was in a terra cotta pot that it had outgrown, but still bloomed dependably every year. I usually have a green thumb, so my wife trusted me to put it in a ‘nicer’ home. After […] [Original post on mstdn.science]

The White House’s responses fit a pattern of suspicious behavior from the president on this matter. #trump has said of #Epstein’s accomplice, #ghislainemaxwell, “I wish her well”—a strange thing to say about a #convicted #felon who systematically abused young girls. His admin has granted her a […]
