This is a sharp and interesting piece

I am pro voting for platner, at least in the general, and also everyone who loves him online is a maniac

current pulte looks like Buddy Garrity nearing retirement but these images and stories really fill in the “northwestern frat guy I nearly overlapped with” picture

Check out this bit of ai alarmism from… the MIT Sloan School of Management.

This is basically the central motte and bailey of actually existing so called liberal Zionism

Look obviously the bigotry is the problem here. This would be unacceptable if the adopter was *in* dearborn. But "20 miles away" is a set of brainworms all its own. 20 miles is a huge radius. Grosse Pointe and Royal Oak are within 20 miles. Ann Arbor's less than 40.

huge unforced error on my part to involve myself in this conversation. but I do love “French here” as an appeal to authority on the question of someone else’s muslimness

I appreciate NY1 continuing the tradition of broadcasting incumbents getting skewered live on TV.

Says a lot that Ambassador Shapiro feels the need to literally just straight up lie, Smotrich was part of the delegation!

i would love to know why a Reason magazine reporter was filing FOIA requests with the FBI about my sister four days after she died

the difference between Bluesky and old Twitter is that on bluesky the people who post made up, unverifiable claims at you will politely admit the claims are baseless when you ask them to cite their sources

A reminder that Bovino planned and executed the racist terror campaign against Latinos that Brett Kavanaugh explicitly blessed in September. Kavanaugh Stops were born through Kavanaugh giving Bovino the benefit of the doubt.

Imagine being so unable to love your child that you set fire to the whole damn world instead.

Unless the Sharia law compliant S&P500 ETF also waives its rules (and hopefully the word of God is more timeless than the S&P500's index inclusion criteria), then this is one way to avoid SpaceX IPO exposure. Alhamdulillah

Where are people getting this idea that Smotrich came to the parade unannounced, reports were saying he would attend days in advance? It seems like people were okay with this and then only realized how bad it looked after the fact. Sorry but no sympathy.

Strange game where Democratic politicians who attended the Israel Day Parade now pretend to be anti Smotrich, thanks I guess but why did you march in the same parade then? I will say though that it is noteworthy which Democratic politician who attended has not said anything at all

get yourself a member of Congress who doesn't march with genocidal war criminals 👇

Fuck, that's good.

AP photog: Broken knee from NJSP rush Reuters photog: Sliced open fingers from ICE baton EPA photog: Deliberately maced in ear (wearing a respirator) Countless indies: Maced, shoved, shot at Visual journalist: Still held in jail +14 hours after being detained

Should be a national scandal that ends the careers of every single Democrat who marched yesterday but instead there’s not a single story from American media about it lol

Why on earth would this ever be true. Businesses do not have a right to exist more than people have a right to free, safe, and easy movement.

we cannot be a nation until the whole hell of the deportation machine, the family separation machine, the foul moloch that sustains Stephen Miller and grinds children into dust, until all of that is dismantled and the work of reparation begins www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Chuck Schumer was fine with it though apparently

The transition of sports fandom from loyalty and joy and community to monetization and commodification is a little heartbreaking to me. A signal of the broader commercialization of everything not nailed down in America.

NEW: A lot of bad has happened to American science over the last year but nothing comes even close to what’s about to happen if we don’t speak out in opposition to the OMB rule changes and I hope @aaas-socsci.bsky.social @apsphysics.bsky.social and others will launch public campaigns about this. 🧪🔭⚛️

They're referring to immigrants, to human beings as "it"

guys I just tried googling this to find the exact Andor quote and jesus fucking christ guys what the fuck is happening here

You get into an exhausting loop with these things; "Israel is an apartheid state" -> "No its not! They could implement all these policies!" -> "Ok but they haven't" -> "Well, they don't have the votes" -> "Ok, so the people support it being an apartheid state" -> "No! They could implement reforms!"

I am tired of this world-these people. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives.

This means nearly half of American Jews under the age of 35 hold a political position that nearly every major American Jewish organization considers to be an unacceptable political red line. And that level of disconnect is not a tenable situation. forward.com/news/827329/...

where is the lie lol

was playing with my dog on the MUT - riding my bike slowly and letting him run alongside me on a leash. Dog came to a quick stop on an uphill so I stopped as well. Dude who was apparently drafting behind me (???) yells "what the fuck!" and nearly crashes his bike

similarly, the only way to get American capital to even slightly behave themselves again is to make such an example out of some Trump-aligned VCs (and mechahitler's father, obviously) that they're genuinely too scared to engage in reactionary politics anymore

What this actually means is he travelled to Bosnia as a medical student in 1994 to provide medical aid with a group that was praised for their humanitarian relief efforts in 1994 by a Presidential envoy of Bill Clinton and was only designated financially linked to terrorists by the US in 2002.

Also, not that it matters, but Piker voted for Harris. He spent the 2024 campaign warning people about how bad Trump would be. He did not tell his audience to vote 3rd party, no matter how much KHive weirdos insist he did.

Not the kind of shit that a member of congress should be doing. Also, seeing all the weird KHive accounts doing some goofy ass victory lap because the fascist federal government is targeting a streamer they don't like is really telling about what some of their core beliefs actually are.

WTF is wrong with her?

Funny that this headline attributes more agency to a dog than practically any headline about a cop.

I can't roast this person because it would be both wrong and stupid of me but I just need to put a marker down that I just saw the most psychotic thing I have ever seen someone post on LinkedIn and it had truly hundreds of grown adults with big jobs responding positively

If you have the means, please consider helping @jeymccreight.bsky.social, a trans science communicator, activist, founder of @beyondxandy.bsky.social and organizer of Transquake. He's a public figure mobilizing support for trans rights and good science, and he was attacked for doing just that

I wonder what the total number of non-training rounds fired by secret service bodyguards between 1865 and 2024 was, and how that compares to the last two years

let this be a message to Americans who join the military. the GOP will campaign on your death and use their power to delete your existence from the history books once it becomes inconvenient.

Immediately sold on this Kelton Johnson small farmer stuff

walking home in our neighborhood when a dude came up to me and my wife and genuinely tried to start a fight with me. Had like 80+ pounds on me too

Does he know he is Dr. Oz?

I’m not sure anything has soured me more on the concept of a rational market than Elon company valuations
