In a nutshell, Piggy pulled the rug out on all BLACK people who've paid $10-20k in USCIS fees and have done all the right things for at least a decade, studied & passed a civics test Piggy never could have passed, even before he grew senile. He's a Nazi white supremacist. If it walks like a duck....

“She showed up as scheduled, and when she arrived, officers were asking everyone what country they were from, and if they said a certain country, they were told to step out of line and that their oath ceremonies were canceled.” www.wgbh.org/news/local/2... @gbhnews.bsky.social

It is an unbelievable stroke of cultural luck that the greatest Jeopardy! champion ever is a legitimately Weird Dude who can both host and post good.

Messing with a vaccine that has delivered amazing results for no good reason at all, is the exact opposite of this article. www.amjmed.com/article/S000...

every movie soundtrack is a concept album

The biathlon was created as a freebie medal for Scandinavians, they already do that stuff all the time, on their way to work. It'd be like if Maryland helped start the Olympics and oh whaddya know there's a crabcake eating competition.

It’ll be the funniest thing when he gets dumped once he’s no longer in government

And that definitely includes ruining the lives of the judges who are consistent in their devotion to “boys will be boys.”

cannot stress enough how bad it is to give teenage boys a "see this person naked" button. massive, multi-axis disaster

the fucking Calibre e-book manager has gone AI slop calibre-ebook.com/whats-new

holy shit, this is not, as I assumed on first glance, the nyt pitchbot. everything about this is real 😂😂😂

I think Quentin Tarantino is such a fucking loser for bullying Paul Dano And in public? Loser shit

It's hard to explain to normies how much effort Trump is putting into anti-trans policies. This is like the 12th thing just this week. And there were 12 things the week before, and 12 things the week before that. There will be 12 things next week. This is almost everything the government is doing.

"I did not resign to make a symbolic point," writes Dr. Debra Houry, former chief medical officer of the CDC. "I resigned because staying silent would have made me complicit." 🛟 🧪 time.com/7338714/dr-d...

“Don’t put pictures of yourself online” to “Don’t let boys take pictures of you” to “Don’t let boys see you” to “Don’t exist in public”

add her face to rushmore

hahaha the White House deleted the fascist anti-immigrant slop video after Sabrina Carpenter ratioed them

It’s a public service not a business. Losses are not relevant. It’s in the goddamn constitution. Gonna lose my mind. AAAAAAAAAHHHHH

The city starts getting electricity next month from hydrogen made at a Utah plant – and stored beneath it in a vast salt cavern – to help get to 100% carbon-free power.

THE BOAT WAS HEADED TO SURINAME, NOT THE US, BECAUSE OF COURSE IT WAS.

Hello, good evening, may I offer you a historical mystery in these trying times? There are three JM Alvey Philocles mysteries and they are all good, a nice relaxing read if you're the sort who likes to curl up with a good mystery. Two bucks on the evil river (unfortunately no equivalent Kobo sale.)

this article is so unserious it feels satirical whole-body MRI scans for worried well are horrifically low-value they find incidentalomas, leading to downstream costs & iatrogenic harm not sure what it's doing in a newspaper (if that's what we're calling the WaPo) www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/ar...

I'm going to keep saying this in my effort to speak it into reality: Supreme Court should have at least 100 Justices with rotating panels (and maybe an en banc option). No single Justice should have so much power and they shouldn't be names everyone knows.

Someone over on YT asked why I didn't 3D print the sword (a valid question from a regular over there) I use my 3D printer exclusively for head sculpts. But for bits like this, ALL of the dopamine is in solving the problem of "how do I make this with items that aren't supposed to be a mini sword?"

Short thread. I love this.

"A Chinese hospital ship quietly docked in hurricane-hit Jamaica this week, projecting soft power into the heart of the Caribbean where a US armada is conducting a controversial anti-narcotics mission targeted at Venezuela."

A 27 year old man in end stage kidney failure was told if he wanted his dialysis he has to sign self deportation papers. “If you want to leave, sign. If not, you're going to die here." Withholding of life saving medical treatment should be considered torture. www.wfae.org/race-equity/...

This is the funniest fucking thing I have ever seen.

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

The bear would never

I think it's a fair bet that I've written the only YA sf/famtasy that contains Cel-Ray. 😀 www.youngwizards.com/games-wizard...

I have no sympathy for a media industry that shuts skipped along while diversity and worker rights were gutted now sitting up because it’s starting to affect the people with expense accounts at Nobu

USPS is also the only service that delivers to every home in America, no matter how remote.

This is the third newsroom (at least) with an FBI leak about the suspect being a Trump supporter. Seems some FBI folks — presumably not the political hires —are very eager to get this out there.

I love companies being punished for replacing workers with AI. Gimme more

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

there are of course many examples of political constituencies that have in fact killed scores of children (en route to some other evil goal), but I can't offhand think of any historical examples of a political constituency organized for that specific purpose

This is re: the prospective Netflix purchase of Warners, and I agree *absolutely* -- *especially* as Warners' releases tend to have a higher quality of bonus features than other major studios.

On the morning when the guy who shot up the subway was caught, I was a block away at Tompkins Sq Park as NYPD tossed all the belongings of unhoused folks who were hurting no one. The guy who sells flowers at the hardware store on 1st Ave is who actually spotted the shooter while cops were harassing.

Okay but like why is *anybody* buying Warner Bros why does Warner Bros need to be bought how big do the entertainment conglomerates need to get before they are one single conglomerate

Wild that five years after Covid, masks aren't completely normalized in healthcare settings

Two things the Democrats shouldn’t be shy about saying plainly these days: the Supreme Court is illegitimate and Pete Hegseth is a psychopath.

listen I don't have any illusions about the United States military, what it does, or how many times this has happened before but the fact that they sat there for 41 minutes, watched two scared, human beings desperately struggling to stay alive, and then murdered them has fucked me up so deeply

The best friends you could ever have are the ones who send you a few bucks in a pinch before payday when you need baby formula and diapers We’d always get each other back with interest when we could

is there anything more 2025-coded than “white” being the pantone color of the year

The only reason not to follow the Prison Rape Elimination Act is if you do not want to eliminate rape

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

It is funny that Omar still codes as so radical to some liberals and it is purely because of her ethnic and religious identity. She is a two stater and not even a socialist and yet she is routinely perceived as more left wing than Tlaib.

Reminder: a 20 year old Black cosplayer recently committed suicide because of shit like this. She was just a kid. If you come across any Black cosplayers sharing their work, please take a second to like and leave a positive comment. You never know how much that can help someone.
