🎥 Israel says it will ban 37 humanitarian organizations operating in Gaza starting Jan. 1. “Is someone seriously claiming a Quaker organization is an Islamic militant front?” California-based American surgeon Dr. Feroze Sidhwa, who has volunteered multiple times in Gaza, said to Drop Site News...

People who make “barely disguised fetish” jokes are cowards. It’s not meant to be disguised you’re just too dense to accept it.

Sometimes when I am feeling down I pull up the car dealership post celebrating J Mascis for buying a sensible compact car and draw strength from it like a jpg spirit bomb

This Nazi passed a bill to imprison trans kids' parents two weeks ago.

I began this story focused on the weird lies about Hurricane Helene but became very disturbed at how prevalent this pseudo-environmentalism is. The movement blocks real policy to curb climate catastrophes.

heard this one second hand like ten years ago but a friend of a friend (bald white guy) told some noisy teens on the subway to quiet down and one of them looked at him and said “suck my pussy uncle fester”

I always thought Plato was pretty pollyannaish on this point, but this is decent evidence for the view that a man of bad character will therefore be unhappy even with every external trapping of success and good fortune.

The tax in the Portland area she’s talking about is a very tiny income tax on top tier earners to fund preschool for all, which she tried to get the legislature to revoke. It’s both anti-democratic and anti-affordability. It’s also not a something she actually achieved so idk why it’s listed.

Can't explain why but let it die by feist is a Christmas album to me

Whatever you do, don't bring up the marinara's divorce.

My Brother's Girlfriend Is A Transsexual

Swedish activist Greta Thunberg was arrested by UK police under the Terrorism Act at the Prisoners for Palestine lock-on protest outside the offices of Aspen Insurance in London, which insures the Israeli weapons firm Elbit Systems.

This trans instructor was doing her job, giving a failing grade to a student who cynically did not comply w the assignment. The instructor was targeted by Turning Point USA who worked hand in glove w the student in a highly orchestrated media hit job to advance its anti-trans hate campaign

This is my time to shine because I DID

It bears emphasizing: The same admin that is attacking and defunding our universities, over what they call an antisemitism crisis, is now saying antisemitism isn't a problem at all.

Despite everything at least Bari Weiss is probably having a bad day

especially in the dark hours we need to remember that we are going to win

CBS News chief Bari Weiss pulls 60 Minutes story Weiss said investigation had to include comments from Trump administration 60M's ⁦‪Sharyn Alfonsi‬⁩ said multiple US agencies refused to comment - and this lets WH veto coverage My NPR story www.npr.org/2025/12/22/g...

It's almost christmas 🙏

she's just doing what she was hired to do

been saying for years that this sort of thing, functionally testing unproven technology on entire neighborhoods and then entire cities, should be put to a vote and include payment for the people potentially affected, but the right to profit supersedes all other rights

These people are so antisocial that they don’t think other human beings are functional, intelligent people. They assume anything they don’t understand was designed arbitrarily. And then they act on it. Our economic system incentivizes APD so much that we are ruled by people like this

People are rightly disgusted by this speech, but it’s a measure of fascism’s normalization that many see this as more of the awful same rather than what I think most of us who’ve been reporting this beat hear it as: a significant calculated escalation. Full alert stuff.

Couldn’t choose between a star or an angel so we went with both 😌

The Portland right-wing's answer for the economy is (1) tax cuts for the rich, (2) subsidies for downtown property owners who only give low rent to Rene Gonzales, and (3) hire more police officers. Oh, and to work with people who lost city council races to generate bad faith ethics complaints.

Everyone has the feels because they didn’t read past the headline. What Romney actually wrote is a call for “entitlement reform.” “Social Security & Medicare benefits for future retirees should be means-tested…” Means testing is costly, arbitrary & creates an “out” class. We should still eat Mitt

From a focus group of Gen Z Republicans. (www.city-journal.org/article/manh...) Tell me again about how Zohran Mamdani is the big threat to Jewish thriving in the US today.

Coming out as trans in summer 2014 was an entirely different world. It feels like looking back at an alien planet to think back to how hopeful everything was. The world we got was not inevitable

"Has feminism failed women brought to you by bank of america" is my MKULTRA sleeper agent activation phrase

they're calling it caracas syndrome now

incredibly crowded field, some truly elite options, but I think this remains this era's most insulting thing we were asked to believe was real

This is a really fucked up little detail and implication that kinda slips under the weight of the rest of everything being sickeningly fucked up lmao

It’s almost as if the Trump administration has an overt, blatant racist agenda
