About sums up the USG policy position for 30 years: give the Israeli prime minister everything in advance in order to appease a non-American domestic political audience that is lurching rightward anyway

Even though it’s funny to laugh about how this has literally 0 likes on it, it’s probably still worth noting that Jeff Bezos has millions invested in the cloud company that sends these alerts to law enforcement

Nostalgia can be fine now and again obviously! We all do it. But monetizing nostalgia or especially nostalgia as a political project is fascist. It's also corny as hell. "Imagine being at a show 30 years ago?" Man go to a show right now they still have music.

In 2016, San Antonio cop Matthew Luckhurst was fired after giving a homeless man a sandwich filled with feces. Last month, he became police chief in Benavides, Texas.

Unfettered access to chatbots can harm educational outcomes Using AI while solving problems improves performance by 48% (GPT base). When access to AI was taken away, students actually performed worse than those who never had access (17% reduction in grades) www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

A new study in Nature reveals the staggering economic cost of historical emissions: The US has caused an eye-watering $10 trillion in global climate damage since 1990 alone. That's more than any other nation in history 🧵 1/4

Since 1996, the business models of Silicon Valley are largely based on legally protected unaccountability, enforced world-wide through US dominance. Generative AI is both a product and an escalation of this model: It's unaccountability as a service

The scaremongering around this, mixed-use zoning, and "15 minute cities" is the most reactionary shit I have ever seen in my life.

13/ And when news broke about Morrison’s arrest, the department did stop EFA payments to the Delta Institute. But only temporarily. Two days later, public money began flowing again. An overseer of the program said the school had implemented “appropriate safeguards.”

THREAD: The boy is called a liar. He’s told not to defend himself. Then the private school owner encourages all of his peers to attack him, one by one. She hits him, repeatedly, with a plastic pipe-like object. How does this school still exist — and receive state funds? 🧵

Visualized.

Crowley, who was polling at 5%, dropped out. Dem leaders convinced him to get back in because they will get the governor to endorse him as well as ensure Mandela Barnes, who is polling at 25-30%, drops out. This is all to stop Hong, the person actually winning right now, because they love democracy

If you pile your furniture in the middle of your living room then set it on fire, you will have the warmest house in your street, for a few hours.

Good morning. This is fascism. This is the US Govt creating thought crimes. It’s not about who they are arresting today, it’s about how this vague and threatening pursuit will be used against dissenters. ✨EVERY✨ fascist govt to date, has taken this step. www.state.gov/releases/off...

Dang they really got a category for everything

The revelations came out in a federal court case brought by Democratic states challenging ICE's access to Medicaid data to aid in deportation efforts. n.pr/4f9OdMn

Part of the reason we end up with periodic outbreaks of food-borne illness is because the people who harvest, process, and prepare food are some of the lowest-paid workers with the fewest labor protections and most miserable working conditions in America

a literal car dealer trying to sanction another country for wildfire smoke really gets at the essence of climate politics

lol epic sauce!!! You just know that group chat is on fire right now!!!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

In the backlash to the freewheeling 1920s, German fascists and eugenicists said you could identify sexual deviants (including masturbators) - and Jews - by their "nervousness." That's exactly what this is.

It's not even a "woe is me" thing. I don't care about the self-flagellation aspect, it is just objectively true that when a country does these horrific things with no pushback the incentive structure will be to keep doing it. This is just 101 logic. Everyone needs to learn some kind of lesson.

Trump: “We are holding Canada responsible for the fact that they are not properly maintaining their Forests, and Brush therein, and the United States is being unnecessarily invaded by filthy, polluted, and unhealthy air, the quality of which is dangerous, and totally unacceptable!”

Breaking: The shooter was a Geo employee who fired at the back of two protesters as they walked away from the facility last night. There had been a verbal altercation before the shooting, per Aurora Police statement, and the protesters had taken photos of the Geo employees’ vehicles.

Both the Times and the Post are saying Trump "Fell Far Short" or "Stops Short" or providing evidence of election tampering. These are lousy euphemisms that do not tell the reader the actual state of the evidence, and imply that evidence of a broken election system actually exists. It doesn't.

it's hard to imagine what it's like being a jewish candidate for senate facing an opponent whose son-in-law is a neo-nazi. particularly in 2026.

TBH I would also haven voted to end all taxpayer funded aid to Jordan because it's a shit hole monarchy that oppresses my people too, that being said, the main reason these 103 Democrats voted against it is because Jordan 1) doesn't kill children en masse and 2) actually listens to the US.

Lis Smith basically doing the liberal Zionist talking point that the downward public perception of Israel is entirely due to Netanyahu (even though public opinion was going down when Bennett and Lapid led the government too) and Dana Bash responds by frothing at the mouth with Kahanist nonsense.

It starts with little things we can’t get, or things we get that hurt us. We make jokes because that’s what people do when they’re introduced to the unimaginable. The world narrows so gradually, and eventually you stop thinking of it as a loss, because you can’t remember the word for breadth.

Didn't last.

"parasite outbreak blamed on taco bell because they're the only company reporting it" feels very "1918 flu blamed on Spain because they're the only country reporting it"

I'm getting really sick of seeing rapists just get to promote rape on TV and in the government day in and day out with no consequences or truly any reaction at all at this point

I have encountered landlords that have asked for bank account login credentials. I have encountered others with the moderated stance, upon denial of said credentials, of screenshotting your bank account dashboard. Others moderate further by demanding the two years of pay stubs.

A statement from WIRED leadership.

4. “As a doctor, public servant, and a mom, I will always stand up for fairness and protect kids’ health and safety," she continued, in an apparent claim that trans people's mere existence in sports is unsafe and unhealthy.

This isn’t vandalism, it’s art – and reminds me I must watch They Live again

They're right, you're wrong!

I think it says a lot about how scared a lot of Zionists are that they now are running madly into the arms of J-Street, the organization that they spent years demonizing as a gateway front to anti-Zionism because they tepidly suggested that weapon transfers should be conditioned on humanitarian law.

Obviously John Hannah is right about Iran. But it takes a lot of moxie for someone from the George W. Bush administration to criticize someone else for launching a "war based on fatally flawed assumptions." www.nytimes.com/2026/07/14/u...

Never beating the "American Black and Tans" allegations

photograph of the century. no question.

hell of a job, donny

This is a good definition of what conservatism actually is: whining about merely being told that your selfishness is harmful to *yourself*

Wow. The ICE shooter in Maine asked his ex-wife to "to lie for him and to cover for his character." She said he was abusive and had previously reported concerns about him to his military superiors. He was also a volunteer firefighter, but was removed after several spats with department leadership.

Fucccck they got him with the Gun That Makes You Italian

For a movement as hung up on The Masculine Virtues as these donkeys it's striking how dedicated they are to avoiding responsibility for anything they do or any of the consequences of those actions. Going through life on the verge of tears, looking for someone else to blame—now that's MAN.
