Counterpoint to handwringing: America has been committing war crimes from the start. From slaughtering our own natives to overthrowing all sovereign leaders who refused to cede to American corporate greed. We have always been this, hiding beneath “civil” language. It’s time we face it and fix it.

a reminder that, as long as Waymo is undercutting the popular will for public transit, they are actively making people *less* safe

I did. When that stupid sink came through the door, I quit, and I had far less rage bait in my life until this place got rolling. If I it happened again, and this place went away, I think I’d survive just fine.

yeah when you tell the enemy "by the way we aren't abiding by the rules of war" you can't really expect them to follow any rules in return

I left grad school 10 years ago with horrible reading burnout. I could barely read 10 pages of my favorite book before needing a break. Last night, I read 75 pages in one sitting and today started a second book. It will come back after a lot of rest and a little work. 💙📚

The US Department of War Crimes.

This double tap is an Israeli tactic used to kill medics and rescuers. It’s a war crime. Every American involved in the mission needs to be prosecuted.

Didn’t realize I still had some Xennial #challengerTrauma. They herded a generation into classrooms and wheeled those TV’s that were lashed to AV carts. They were so proud, sharing in the joy of the teacher who went to space, and then it happened. It probably explains a lot about my generation.

A eulogy for irony. Yes. Imagine if.

Personally, I think it's important that children be taught about all the early Saddle Creek bands. Not just Cursive, but Bright Eyes, The Faint, Rilo Kiley, and even The Good Life. Hear hear!

rip robert mueller you taught me it was okay to do nothing when faced with the most consequential task of my life

Perfect

The most immediately notable part of the verdict is that people were convicted material support for terrorism for believing in antifascism and going to a noise demo where people lit off consumer grade fireworks.

That’s just transphobic discrimination with extra steps.

DHS made a massive purchase of 2,500 new custom marked ICE vehicles that are now sitting in parking garages because nobody wants to use them: “ICE has never had marked vehicles. We don’t want to use these - we can’t.” www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/immig...

No matter where you are, they’re using the same playbook

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

"So Bibi gets a say as to whether the US goes to war but the US Senate and the American people do not?"

how many more examples do you need to see before you’re ready to write off platner

The NYT style guide

This account includes an eyewitness. Also: “At least 85 people, almost all of them young girls, have been killed in an air strike on a primary school in southern Iran, the Iranian judiciary said.”

Oh hey, this sounds familiar encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/t...

Idk who needs to hear this, but if your government requires your dead name or assigned gender at birth on your documents it has nothing to do with you detransitioning or who you are as a person. It doesn't change you, it just makes your government wrong.

Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant. I watched ICE cut classes that teach our legal system, firearms training, use of force, lawful arrests, and the limits of officers' authority

Where in the century of humiliation are we now?

Last year, they put a genocide candidate up against a genocide candidate, and instead of soul searching after the loss, they buried the election autopsy and low key blamed trans people for existing. I’m just gonna leave this here for my fellow olds.

And many of them went to the press and whispered that the problem was trans people.

Why the FUCK is the director of the FUCKING FBI using YOUR TAXES to FLY TO ITALY so he can party with pro hockey players?!? In WHAT FUCKING UNIVERSE is this ok?!

Deep down, they are all wannabe frat boys. Patel, Hegseth, RFK, Musk, etc. We all have to pay because they were teenage losers who couldn't get a date.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered. ~ Veterans for Peace

Do not come to the US for tourism. It is not safe to come here.

I am incandescent. I knew the process must have been absurd, evidenced by canceled grants flagging biodiversity as though confused for diversity, but to truly know researchers’ works at the forefront of knowledge were judged with “Clippy.” It breaks something in me I wasn’t aware hadn’t yet broken.

I received notification of yet another death at an ICE facility, meaning 38 people have died in custody since Trump returned to office. ICE is failing to ensure the health and safety of the people it is responsible for. We need immediate oversight of this entire operation.

As a prison abolitionist, there are times I am tested.

the TWO MONTH OLD infant was UNRESPONSIVE just in the LAST DAY

Frame: the left is hurting itself by not engaging with the god machines Negation: but this technology doesn't do the things you claim kirby: the people writing these stories get funding to support narratives of power and inevitability, and that's what we should be scrutinizing

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

The Boston globe is platforming a white supremacist who wrote clear Nazi screeds then, and simply writes with more plausible deniability now.

lol this is gonna burst so fucking hard

why is there anti-homeless architecture in pokemon

I somehow think the loneliness epidemic is gonna skip this king

the minute the fb algorithm clocks you as a straight man it immediately sets about trying to destroy your life & endanger those around you

In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

shooting up contraband cancer mRNA vaccine behind the Cyber Arby’s in 2034. the Ring camera on the Wells Fargo across the street recognizes my shape using LIDAR and releases an HHS sanctioned Bobby’s Bullet Buddy drone that shoots each of my nuts clean off one at a time

Part of why we were so excited about these is that he designed them to print on their sides, so you can pack 100 onto the A1 mini plate easily! I did my first 100 whistle test run and omg I LOVE THEM NOW THE RAINBOWS GO ACROSS THEM??? (teeth grooves added by suggestion of folks using them!) 😍

This is just unconscionable man

Breaking, the EPA doesn’t fucking revoke scientific findings. Findings remain found until better studies and a preponderance of evidence displace those findings.
