Another species no longer on the global Endangered list: Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae). A few decades after a Star Trek movie where the central conflict was the total extinction of the humpback, their numbers are rising fast enough to put them at "Least Concern" on the IUCN Red List.

If only there had been some indication that reactionary flag-fucking politics is extremely bad and the British press are toxic and catastrophic. But sadly

this rainy fascist island should rename itself the great british bake off because we are so fucking cooked

All the worst men are like "the lion does this" and "the lion doesn't care about that" at the moment. Lions sleep like 16-20 hours a day, come back when you can teach me how to be like THAT lion

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

Google's sponsored results now take up the entire first results page, and honestly fuck right off. I think it actually might be time to switch to a search engine that isn't so data hungry and forceful with advertising.

A "modest margin" when Mamdani beat his next closest challenger by 8 points in a three-person race. Trump won by just 1.5% and it was played off as a seismic realignment of American politics and culture.

Rolled a saving throw against Alan Dershowitz

2001, a dev looks up from his cocaine, about to make one of the best decisions in gaming history "The monster made of sentient faeces should be an opera singer"

Tech guys six months ago: haha yes we’re cutting all this WASTEFUL spending by eliminating medical research and USAID Tech guys now: yes I think taxpayers will be excited to bailout my non consensual pornography machine

sometimes an Oxford comma can make all the difference

Everyone on this plane is mad about my therapy scorpion

don't remember if I've mentioned this before. tell anyone you see using Google to do this. hiding "actually do what I asked" is another expression of the paternalistic techbro mindset that gives you "yes" or "not now" options for an unwanted new feature or only lets you hide something "for a while"

Seems clear everyone thought whoever was in power would have to raise taxes, including the press and the Tories, and the only people who didn’t think this would be necessary were the government, who appear to have convinced themselves the economy would boom out of sheer joy at being governed by them

Best suggestions in the comments so far are "stumblebragging" and "The Mandel Effect"

virtue signalling is good actually

I've said it once and I'll say it again, Laura Loomer looks like a British drag queen

They’re not going to make noise about it, because they’ve been part of stoking the trans panic to distract from their predation on children.

"... from the standpoint of British capital, Starmer's disastrous leadership is on the verge of liquidating organised labour as a political force. Something worth a shower of damehoods, gongs, and knights garter."

James Watson was not just a scientist who was a racist. He was worse - a scientist who offered other racists the comfort of scientific authority.

consumer spending sentiment is at the lowest since both 2008 and 2020. did something bad happen in both those periods

While US venture capitalists were buying monkey jpegs, and DOGE coins, and figuring out how to get Black women fired, and tweeting about white birthrates, and trying to mandate which bathroom trans kids should use, China was making progress on climate change and taking the lead in a real industry.

Adds the Jeremy Renner app to the list of social media networks owned by fascists.

'world's first trillionaire' and 'hellish economic crisis' will pair nicely for historians at least. so we've got that to look forward to

Sam Altman has killed more people than Luigi Mangione.

AI could end scarcity, end humanity - or boost trend growth by 0.2 percentage points

‘Biological pronouns’, now part of a decision in the US courts, was workshopped in plain sight by British GCs. British GCs have been ascendant in large part due to US funding of their associated fake charities and activist orgs. Transphobia is an organised, international war effort.

succubus - female demon that seduces men incubus - male demon that seduces women vengabus - non-binary demon that likes to party

Trump is mere days from putting up a "Live, Laugh, Love" decal in the Oval Office, all while Melania plans some insane dystopian industrial wasteland-core Christmas display

The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

Dr Oz talking about obesity, diabetes and dementia while Trump is slumped over like a man minutes from death is supremely funny content

Trump aide demonstrates healthcare plan

This is complete hogwash

Pelosi is retiring

in unrelated news Paul Pelosi is retiring from investing

Bahahahahahaha

Oh my GOD. The song that Rudy Giuliani used in his anti-Zohran post is fucking AI-generated. It's a song called "September 11, 2001" and it's from some AI slop factory called The Experience. You need to hear how bad this song is. music.apple.com/cz/album/sep...

Opinion | 34 is not old enough to govern by Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi

sorry I've added a "Controversy" section to your wikipedia article while you were asleep

I'm glad that the buzz around Mamdani wasn't just a purely online thing and turned out to translate into votes

The lesson here is have good principles and stand on them. Stand for something that isn't power!

that thing everyone said was going to happen is happening

Every time YouTube brings up so-called community standards and acts like the arbiter of trust & safety, feel free to remember it’s a platform where Nazis are allowed to say what they please and mentioning the Holocaust by name is considered inappropriate.

It is worth saying that putting “Africana studies” in scare quotes as if it’s a ridiculous concept is not a political argument. It’s just racism. “Africa is not worthy of a major” is the implication. Yeah dude you’re just racist. (From Gerard Baker at the WSJ today) www.wsj.com/opinion/mamd...

So does JD Vance have to fuck Lynne Cheney now, too?
