Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Destroy every Ring camera. Straight into the fires of Mount Doom. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

The sheer number of stories I owe to NBC OUT for letting me write… The sheer scale of the way they covered queer news makes this devastating for LGBTQ media. This hurts. They were an incredible group.

Reporters from more than 30 news outlets have vacated the Pentagon, refusing to comply with new reporting restrictions.

Young Republicans are praising Hitler. Here's why Democrats are to blame.

as someone who was a teenage girl on the internet, i think making AI-generated revenge porn of a minor should get you the electric chair actually

Young Republican leaders joked about gas chambers. Used racial slurs. Called rape “epic.” Praised slavery. And said outright: “We love Hitler.” Not anonymous trolls—these are vice chairs, national committeewomen, and future Republican party leaders #Project2025 www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

I really miss the good old days when almost everyone agreed that Nazis were bad.

This is obscene! Most people in the US get 10 to 14 paid vacation days after one year of service, though this varies by employer. After 10 years of service, the average increases to 15 to 19 days.

Tariffs have left farmers in financial distress! Soybean exports to China dropped 39% by volume to 5.9 million metric tons at a value of 51% to $2.5 billion, robbing farmers of billions of dollars'

CBP agents knocked on an El Paso home at 7:15 a.m. The owner asked to secure his Rottweiler, Chop, in the bathroom. While he got his ID, agents opened the door and shot Chop. The family tried to save him as he bled out on the kitchen floor.

And it's bare, surface-level criticism. Nobody doing this has to actually engage with what they're criticizing, it's never about how well those themes or characters are done, just that they exist. It's intellectually lazy, but it's just aesthetics they can point to without engaging any deeper.

Too many womens? *DING* Woman in hijab? *DING* Once you see it, it starts to bring into focus a lot of what these cringe crusaders complaints actually are, no matter how nonsensical, they're all playing at doing a Cinemasins for games. Gay characters? *DING* Story with environmental themes? *DING*

Fashy Cinemasins That's what this is, the effect the proliferation of "anti-woke" youtube grifters have had on their audiences as a whole, stunting their ability to engage with media and training them to look for "DEI sins" to call out, atrophying their ability to enjoy the games they're playing.

FUCK ICE NAZIS!

BREAKING: Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado has won the Nobel Peace Prize, winning recognition as a woman “who keeps the flame of democracy burning amid a growing darkness.” She was lauded for being a “key, unifying figure" in the once deeply divided opposition to the Maduro regime.

The Antiphibian of Portland is gearing up to be an iconic symbol of resistance

This was magnificent.

Fond memories of being a 17-year-old fan eagerly awaiting the new Star Wars movies, and suddenly finding yourself becoming a Jedi Knight in the first person. Between two spectacular (for this era) FMV sequences. Jedi Knight was released 28 years ago, and it feels like it was yesterday. 🥰

VA Gov debate: Spanberger: my opponent has previously said that she does not think that gay couples should be allowed to marry ​Earle-Sears: That's not discrimination ​Spanberger: she thinks it's okay for someone to be fired from their job for being gay ​​Earle-Sears: that's not discrimination

The unfair competition of the terrifyingly powerful indie 3d modeler VS the small bean giant multimillion dollars company Games Workshop.

I just realized that the Portland Antifascist Frog has singlehandedly reclaimed amphibians from the “alt right”. Yet another way he is a Great American.

*Cries in American* 😭

Mood.

The country’s best-known suicide prevention group teamed up with the gun industry. The effort was good for public relations and raising money, but it never met its goal, and internal records show why.

Really hammer your reps about how catastrophic this is and how bad these laws are for peoples online safety

WATCH: ‘Portland Frog’ pepper balled by ICE agents

We are at the 'whole AAA games cancelled for fear of offending rabid racists' stage of this clusterfuck now.

Reverend David Black, other faith leaders, journalists, and protestors have joined a class action lawsuit alleging ICE violated their First Amendment rights during protests outside a detention center. The brutality of this regime is on full display.

we showed the brutality of the anti-Black (and anti-ally) violence by police in 2020 (and before) yet we still got Trump for a second term and police violence has only worsened.

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

🚨 ICE said Marimar Martinez “rammed their vehicles.” Bodycam footage says otherwise. It shows an ICE agent ram his own vehicle into hers, sneer “Do something, bitch,” and then shoot her. We can never believe anything ICE accuses anyone of.

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit. Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages. If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

the trump administration attempted to assassinate a critic and when she lived, they prosecuted her for surviving

The guy who literally incited an insurrection is now threatening to use the Insurrection Act to torment Americans who do not support him. (…because he literally incited an insurrection)

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

Jesus Christ 🤦‍♂️

I have no idea how bad the information in the Epstein Files is but the Republican Party and the Billionaire Class are willing to let Trump misuse Federal Troops to invade American cities to distract from the release of the Epstein Files.

“Trump considering using the Insurrection Act to impose his will” sounds remarkably similar to “Rapist and Pedophile vows to use violence if his victims won’t just submit to his prurient desires.”
