1/ ICYMI: We won the Pulitzer Prize for local reporting! For our “On the Hook” series with @ctmirror.org, we reported on how Connecticut laws had come to favor towing companies at the expense of low-income residents. Here's a bit more about the series 👇

Look, I'm going to bed. We're only 20 pledges short, you people better share this petition around, because if I wake up tomorrow and we're not there yet, my anxiety will implode my brain and y'all gonna be SideQuestedless! www.makeship.com/petitions/pe... Good night!

The single most defining thing Elon Musk has ever done is killing untold numbers of people by having DOGE illegally raid and disband USAID. Not rickets, not cars, not even the CSAMbot on X. It’s this, and so many media pundits just choose to unsee it.

I'm sure this will all be paid for by donors. daringfireball.net/linked/2026/...

This is the funniest joke ever made

One of the things I love about Icelandic is how easy it is to make up words by just cramming other words together to make a new one. The word "kjörklefakúkari" for example, means "a person who poops inside voting booths" and yes, we have that word for a reason.

Adrian, of course, went on to earn his PhD in Astrophysics, and this personal work eventually became a cover for BEYOND SCIENCE FICTION, a book collecting a major retrospective exhibition held at the Riverside Art Museum in 2017. 5/5 www.michaelwhelan.com/shop/beyond-...

Little know fact: Far more birds are killed annually by RFK Jr than by wind turbines

Saw Anthony Fauci speak tonight. Impressive man. Two parts particularly struck me. First was his admiration and gratitude to Bush43 for PEPFAR, based on what he expressed as moral duty for the richest nation in the world to spent relatively little to spare poor people from preventable disease./1

Happy ninth birthday to Puff the Magic Kitty! He’s a punk but he’s our punk.

can they not just say that Cohen is very obviously fucked up on some kind of substance? Just like with Musk, these erratic behaviors, wild business decisions, and incoherent public appearances should just be... accurately described?

Hmmm, I wonder if @schiff.senate.gov has seen this. www.404media.co/nature-retra...

The lab leak continues to be one of the most worrying cases of mass conspiratorial thinking in America. Zero evidence for it, but the right is frothing at the mouth to imprison anyone even remotely involved with COVID origins research and the center still thinks it's important to ask questions.

Happy Star Wars Day!

I don't lend money. I gift it. If my friends gift it back to me in my hour of need, I am happy. If not, I am happy that I was able to give them a gift.

The pro-democracy movement is in for a long, hard fight. But @marcelias.bsky.social is optimistic. “We are not going to restore the Voting Rights Act of 1965,” Marc says. “We are going to exceed that law with something new built for the current moment.” Join our fight: https://bit.ly/4iz4QBg

8 vaccines linked to a lower risk of dementia www.gavi.org/vaccineswork... "Multiple large observational studies have found that routine adult vaccines are associated with a reduced risk of dementia, with some showing risk reductions of 25% to 40%." #VaccinesWork!

Today is the anniversary of a great day in global history: the day Bluesky’s Sensual Alf meme began, a curse that still haunts the website. It’s my fault and I wrote about it here: little-flying-robots.ghost.io/how-i-accide...

“I was an adventurer until I took an arrow to the knee”

Blanche needs to go to jail. Bondi too. The Lawyers enabled a lot of this and they need to pay.

Wait ‘til GitHub adds this to all commits

Who here has not brought someone they love a cool stick or a pretty rock?

Wrens are usually solitary birds but when it’s cold they will sometimes huddle together for warmth. Some people call this a ‘herd’ but technically it’s known as a ‘scene’. That’s because chilled wren should be ‘scene’ and not ‘herd’.

So, I have been working with Makeship and we settle for THIS design for Peony's plushie!⬇️ Also, I'm talking to the design team to, SOMEHOW, add a Death Omen ~thing~ on her, but we gotta reach the 200 pledges goal for that! www.makeship.com/petitions/pe...

YES.

Let’s see how this goes over:

At this.weekinsecurity.com I wrote about the rise of regular consumers finding security bugs, flaws, and data leaks but having no way to report them to the companies. I make the case why *every* organization should make it easy for anyone to reach out & how this could save you from a damaging hack.

LOL Hilarious to see an op-ed open with “as a Kansas Rancher” and the end bio “splits his time between his family’s cow-calf operation … and his oil and gas law practice in Longview, Texas” (Gift Link) www.kansascity.com/opinion/read... www.kansascity.com/opinion/read...

The parallels between what's happening in US science and 1930s Germany are indeed chilling, and McNutt's remarks (mentioned in The Nation piece) are an example of this. I had never expected, or hoped, that the book would become quite this relevant.

This is an interesting read. Some of it's the same song we've been singing for years, but I question other parts. The stuff about digital sales and preorders doesn't ring true. I think that hurts the larger argument, but the focus on characters bothers me too. www.comicsbeat.com/dc-comics-bl...

The rich people of today only have two ideas: 1. Let’s kill everyone 2. I need a bunker so after we kill everyone I can emerge from underground, spread my wings like a peacock, and continue to be rich

FOLKS I am SCREAMING about the Porsche 1980 Apple livery for Laguna Seca. it's PERFECT and I ADORE IT.

people all over the world starting to understand how it is possible to bankrupt a casino

Everyone should pay attention to this. Antivaxxers are trying to force you to get another preventable disease and they are better funded than ever. They already got one Lyme vaccine pulled from market with the same tactics of straight-up lying, & climate change keeps making Lyme a much wider problem

Kansas City students walked out of class on Friday to join dozens of organizers and workers in support of May Day and to protest federal immigration action and data centers in their communities.

this is why I enjoy pointing out that the COME SEE FOX NEWS GUY TALK ABOUT HIS PLAN FOR AMERICA speech at the civic center generally draws fewer attendees than the COME SEE A BUNCH OF TEENAGERS ROLEPLAYING AS NARUTO CHARACTERS TALK ABOUT THEIR DAY at the local anime con

They said the dude who tried to assasinate Trump at the White House Correspondence dinner may have been stopped because he tripped 😐😐😐

I have not seen this version before and it is incredible
