The medical profession dodged a bullet by not letting this person into med school despite her own father being the chair of Baylor Plastic Surgery.

It really sucks to see NBC Washington post a reel on Instagram that takes credit for sharing the DOGE USIP raid body cam footage with the world. They mention The Handbasket in the caption knowing full well that all people are going to see is the video. Pretty shameless.

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

Turns out, the Haber Bosch process working best with piles of cheap natural gas means that all the fertilizer is now made in like three places

They are really hitting water infrastructure

The catastrophic impact to local health where the air is poisoned, as well as to our global ecosystem as they literally set the planet on fire and fill the atmosphere with pollutants

omg, nailed

1) This is beyond horrific; 2) this does not encourage me to visit the US; 3) I don't think ticket sales for the World Cup and the Olympics in LA will do very well as more people hear about stuff like this.

i don't care about any arguments against this. right now the sum total of my political advocacy is: crush the Republicans and make them pay. i don't care what comes after because until we do that nothing better is possible.

That's not what this article says, notably not even in the headline. It says an anonymous source said that the AI use was *likely*. The source has no personal knowledge and is noting that it is the "immediate theory". Let's keep this clear.

I agree with a lot of this, worth reading: www.friendlyatheist.com/p/before-you...

This is the thing about bathroom bans targeting trans people - assault is already a crime! Indecent exposure is already a crime! And laws that protect trans people don't suddenly make them legal

Like clockwork.

Wait so can we talk about epistemic virtue now?

We started the conflict and no one wants the sacrifice though?

Late last year I covered the case of QueerDoc, a small, telehealth gender-affirming care practice that received a subpoena from Trump's DOJ. The subpoena was blocked by a federal judge, but the DOJ appealed, and the 9th Circuit is hearing oral arguments today.

One of the main themes in this article is the risk of suicide to detainees. There’s no way to describe these conditions other than psychological torture.

This has nothing to do with the specific content here, but Polymarket adopting the language of news, here with BREAKING, and with Texas election results earlier this week, is BAD. Polymarket is not and will never be a news org or break news. It's a betting app. It's Draft Kings for sociopaths.

I been cackling at this for 10 minutes He said “ yeah probably 🤷🏽‍♀️ I mean I don’t know. I said people was gonna die like what do you want from me ?” “”Asked if Americans should worry about Iran retaliating against Americans on U.S. soil, President Donald Trump responded, "I guess.””

“Good news: my plumber from when I managed an Applebees is now in charge of homeland security and that is one of the least crazy things about the current administration so that's fun for all of us”

Hey that’s about the cost of the SSI Restoration Act, which would cut recipient poverty by 60%, eliminate marriage penalties, and modernize draconian asset limits.

It is 2026 and we are not fucking doing this anymore. EIGHT WOMEN came forward and told stories of Franken GROPING AND FORCIBLY KISSING THEM. The man was a sexual abuser. He did not and does not belong in congress. Fucking period. End of conversation.

if you you are soulless enough to embrace TERF politics, it brings me great pleasure to remind you that you will end up a loser, in addition to being a bigot

🤣🤣🤣

The idea that he’s just some dumb curious regular guy well into his 50s was always a very convenient act to avoid any criticism.

Tonight, two of the white nationalists I reported on in this piece showed up to attempt to intimidate me on a private night out at a small music venue. I’ll have more to say tomorrow. I’m safe. They also didn’t pay cover 🖕

I wrote about the House hearing today, how Congress is trying to strip anonymity from the Internet, and the devastating effects that has for journalists, whistleblowers, LGBTQ ppl, immigrants, civil rights activists, abortion providers and anyone challenging power for @theintercept.com

I’m so tired of seeing people bash Bluesky for being an echo chamber when X is an actual intentionally constructed echo chamber that is demonstrably radicalizing people across the political spectrum who still use it

If you look at the list of peptides, one of the peptides on that list (Melanotan II) is one where my husband treated someone in the ER who lost the ability to speak in words for half a day after injecting it.

I love choosing to remain critical of a guy like this and being proven correct immediately, but what I would love even more is to be wrong.

Went on record saying, essentially, “AI sucks, fund the humanities” today

I wrote about them eating shit www.ms.now/opinion/nort...

anti-trans Dems ate shit last night

War is hell, but there is a special eternal hell reserved for people who would double tap a girls’ school, and it is our job to have scrupulously fair trials and then usher the people responsible for it there

that dumbass evil fucking squirrel buying into propaganda and calling for the "utter annihilation" of Kurds and claiming they're a "Zionist enclave" is insane but also just standard-level squirrel screed

Also our guest here is the incredible Aly Wane!!!

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO

DO NOT COMPLY. DO NOT OUT PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE CHILDREN

Emmanuel Damas, 56, died in ICE custody on Monday. Damas came to the US from Haiti seeking asylum. After six months in ICE custody—the last four at CoreCivic's Florence Correctional Center—he died from complications from a tooth infection, according to ICE. A tooth infection. He's death number nine.

"This is what most of the online gambling addicts who have briefly glanced at the headlines are guessing will happen next" doesn't have the same kind of selling power, I guess.

Isn’t it fun to know that Lauren Powell Jobs, the billionaire widow of Steve Jobs, who is in the Epstein files cackling poolside in a bikini on the island with Ghislane Maxwell, bought the Atlantic in 2017 and afterward began running anti-trans features authored by virulent bigots? Receipts below:
