I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Like the kind of girl Trump drew on Epstein’s birthday card, or a different kind

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

I've said this before, but I feel pretty strongly that the building of concentration camps - and now, the inevitable disappearance of 1,800 people from those camps - is the biggest story in American public health right now that isn't being treated like one

Proud to announce our unnamed tech partners tracked the cell phone locations of hundreds of thousands of people without their knowledge or consent

Some of us do.

please god let her try to cancel gwar it'll be so fucking funny

What a fucking G.

LOL

AP gets it right

🤤

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity. "To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

New: 404 Media is suing ICE. We have filed a lawsuit demanding ICE release its $2 million contract with Paragon, a company that makes powerful spyware to break into phones and read encrypted messages. This is expensive for a small outlet but this info is important www.404media.co/were-suing-i...

Don't let the hatemongering and violence that was Charlie Kirk's defining quality be forgotten. He was an evil person, and must not be whitewashed. Remember the things he actually called for.

“So I’m asking you, my fellow Americans across the nation: instead of being bystanders, be upstanders for our democracy.”

Checks out.

Once more: the best evidence shows that Tylenol taken during pregnancy is not harmful. **This question is settled.** The benefit of reducing discomfort and fever is extremely important at a time when the fetus is developing.

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

Without a doubt one of the most interesting books about the hacking community #CdC @dethveggie.bsky.social

It was the best of times, it was whatever times.

also an excellent further way to police and blame pregnant women!

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

This is evil.

Sounds like AI is garbage then. Yes?

it is not owed to the dead to launder their reputations or gloss over their misdeeds. in fact, it is owed to the living to prevent these things from happening.

Patience is a virtue. #WorldBollardAssociation

The DOJ just erased its own study proving white supremacy drives more extremist killings than any other group since 1990. That’s not just a cover-up—it’s aiding fascism by hiding the deadliest threat Americans actually face. people.com/department-o...

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

They’re not sending their best.

Cancelling disney (and paramount) is working. Keep it up. It is painful at first but after actually you do it, it's ok. They offered 6 months for 2.99/ea and I didn't take it. NOW is the time to cancel and be heard.

“With a single post or video, we can influence thousands of guests to try a food, drink, or experience in the parks,” she says. “I couldn’t, in good conscience, keep giving them free publicity knowing they don’t support free speech and are willing to bow to fascism."

How is this the year 2025

You guys have to read the termination letter that @washingtonpost.com sent @karenattiah.bsky.social because they essentially accused her of anti-white racism because she mentioned that Charlie Kirk was a white man 😵‍💫 Then they called her a “risk.” 🤡 karenattiah.substack.com/p/why-washin...

Reminder that this is murder, and nothing but. It is not legal, and I really hope that everyone involved in these operations, from planning through to execution, end up being prosecuted for these murders.

We brought together attorneys general from across the country to tell trans students: We see you. You belong here. And we will fight for you. As this school year kicks off, know that you are not alone, and we will work to make sure all schools are safe for every student.

This may seem cute but if you do this too much the cyclists may become reliant on cars feeding them, disrupting the delicate roadway ecosystem

The Gulf Tonkin Resolution worked out fine.

AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.

AOC: All in the name of Charlie Kirk, Trump and the FCC are now cynically threatening to shut down ABC and any outlets who give air time to the administration's political critics. This is a disgusting attack on the American people and the very first amendment rights that define us as a country.

Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:

There's so much to unpack -- his childish understanding of the world, his raw nerve of grievances, his sociopathy -- but I can't get past what a whiny, pathetic loser you'd have to be as president to stamp your little feet and cry that the media isn't "allowed" to be mean to you. Mom said so guys!

I stand with PBS. I stand with NPR. I stand with Stephen Colbert. I stand with Jimmy Kimmel. I stand with the First Amendment. PERIOD.* *Also #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files

This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

Now live: Charlie Kirk was a Nazi and no one should be expected to engage in performative mourning over his murder. skepchick.org/2025/09/char...
