im getting disturbing reports that donald trump is doing exactly what he said he would and the results are exactly as disastrous as everyone said they would be

Cow Tools! We have lived alongside cows for nearly 10,000 years. We breed them and exploit them It is now, only now, that we have discovered THEY CAN USE TOOLS Here I describe our study (paper) www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... in @currentbiology.bsky.social with @auersperga.bsky.social

in case you didn't understand why transphobic rhetoric worried us so much about this guy, well it's because it's a signal that shit like this is coming next.

Remember, Scott Adams won't see your posts focusing on his late-career bigotry, but J.K. Rowling might.

Important context to "more/better training" arguments: the murder of Renée Good was a product of that training by someone who has trained others. (I've seen same in civil rights cases; by moving where he did, he was intentionally generating a pretext to shoot her without genuine risk to himself.)

Not, like, next month. He murdered a guy on video. We know his face. Arrest him today.

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

if you want democrat electeds to take republican threats against their lives seriously, you have to trick them into thinking said republicans are wearing keffiyehs. then they'll have the national guard on speed dial

Not even the prompts. If you are a Twitter user in the UK and Twitter sticks a Grok CSAM image in your feed for WHATEVER reason, well congrats your device just downloaded child porn. And you are legally responsible for that.

"People in Venezuela are celebrating, though!" I don't care. People in the US celebrated Trump being elected. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals.

Worse than useless.

from someone who was in school for the beginning of the "war on terror," please. please please please. talk to teenagers in your life about not joining the us military. about not letting themselves be groomed by recruiters in schools. they're going to want soldiers, and they always start young.

For other people, this might be good. For me, this means I’m screaming and vomiting all year.

I know Ryan Murphy is somewhere out there furiously searching for a serial killer Connor Storrie can play since Dahmer’s been done already

“You have beautiful teeth. You know, I’d trade teeth with you if I could.” —my dentist, on more than one occasion, his hands in my mouth.

How the hell is this the single most popular thing I’ve ever done. I’m reconsidering every choice I’ve ever made.

RIP Claudia Cardinale. Much like Robert Redford, she was a rare case of a beautiful performer with a filmography full of bangers who did NOT become right-wing later in life. Here she is punching fascist Brigitte Bardot in the face in Les Pétroleuses (1971).

—I’ve been asked to baptise the King of Spain’s daughter —Infanta? —No, holy water as usual. Weird thing to ask honestly

Republicans want to kill the post office and the media is there for it, which is why you have never seen a news story about how the police department has never turned a profit and is a waste

And it strips watermarks and credits the person who requested the edit. If you have art on X/Twitter, take it down.

Between this and the administration yanking those Trump pictures out of the Epstein file dump, it’s been a huge weekend for the Streisand Effect.

This is the now deleted teaser for the 60 Minutes report that was supposed to air tonight on the CECOT torture prison in El Salvador that Donald Trump sent hundreds of migrants to. CBS is officially a mouthpiece for the Trump administration thanks to Bari Weiss

The Puritan idea that you can't touch anyone you're not in a romantic or parent/child relationship with—especially as a man—is one of the most pernicious in our society, and I think leads to a lot of antisocial behavior. Hug your bros. Consensually, obviously, but *hug your bros*.

if democrats think trans people's lives are worth sacrificing then i don't think they get to whine about losing their votes too

Stunning new revelation: Epstein hung out almost exclusively with guys who had black boxes where their heads should be.

I think about this tweet every day

TIL the original lyrics to Deck the Halls are awesome and “don we now our gay apparel” is temperance movement bullshit

Your 4 year old doesn't know that you selfishly stole his vaccines and gave him a preventable illness that destroyed his immune system and led to years of suffering. But your 10 year old will google that shit. And they will never forgive you. And you deserve that hate plus more.

This is great because it demonstrates that transphobes actually do know that gender has nothing to do with anatomy or genetics. These are gingerbread men despite having no penis or testicles, and DNA that is mostly butter.

I think if a government has online beef with a pop star it has aleady lost

If anybody does this with my image when I die, it should never stop calling you every swear word in the world.

"These emails are cherry-picked." "Ok, but you get that it's a problem that your tree has ANY cherries that are emails conspiring with a paedophilic sex trafficker?"

Nobody ever talks about acidic bitches.

What Republicans will bring to the negotiation table next month:
