Pete Hegseth, who I do not support, may have been wrong to murder those Venezuelan survivors, who I also do not support, but at least he didn’t do it with drones the way a shitlib would have. by Glenn Greenwald

Feels really significant that the Trump admin is making a concerted effort to force colleges to undo policies that made campus safe and accessible for trans people, because for so many trans people college is the first place they ever get to be themselves.

You may already know this - forego the tinsel. We had a cat that loved to eat the tinsel. Thing is, tinsel comes out unaltered from when it went in. It was like a full-body cat floss. Decidedly not festive.

Israel’s Committed 497 Ceasefire Violations Since October, Killing 342 Palestinians unicornriot.ninja/2025/israels...

the internet is now a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy and so on

West Bank: Israeli forces execute two Palestinians at point-blank range - https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/west-bank-israeli-forces-execute-two-palestinians-point-blank-range

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

oh this is absolutely what i think. i think they feed him fake polls and outright AI slop

At this point, I wonder if he isn't lying when he says he has "my highest Poll Numbers, ever" since it's entirely possible that's what his aides are telling him. It's quite likely that there's an entire Potemkin village built around Trump right now.

New York City helped my mother become the artist she is today. The next generation deserves a City Hall that lifts up tomorrow's artists as well.

All of the Pittsburgh journalists who stayed on strike for three years are heroes. Salute.

Many of the MAGA influencers outed as living in countries like Nigeria and Bangladesh have since vanished from X.

Oh did Zack Polanski finally get a BBC Sunday interview then??

In CDG airport, watching France24 on a TV, and they’re doing a report on the Twitter location ID thing that focuses almost exclusively on Gaza accounts without mentioning why Gazans might show up on networks outside of Palestine. No mention of MAGA accounts in India & Nigeria…

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful. Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms. This is dangerous & disappointing.

speaking as a virginia beach native if these kind of dudes are plotting against ICE then there is wide runway in public opinion for straight up abolishing the agency under a dem presidency

Just a reminder to petition signers that one major action is withholding membership renewal dues and end of year donations. Also a reminder to petition haters that anonymous signatories are folks in precarious positions, whose very publicity could be a liability for job security.

As they should. Destroyed USAID based on lies.

Not AMS sending out membership renewal emails NOW, while there’s an open petition and a Chronicle article about it.

Well that was fucking incredible. He cast a charm spell on the most odious man alive.

I’m gonna implore everyone here to take the W if only to experience the feeling again.

"This is the day I realized Zohran had the sauce because he went in there and he hypnotized the guy." Ben Collins joins @stephruhle.bsky.social on the #Nightcap to try to explain the unexpected warmth between Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani at the White House.

The existence of the Levant implies the existence of the Couchant.

This is fucking insane www.lemonde.fr/en/internati...

She’s resigning to spend more time yelling racial and ethnic slurs at cashiers

I’m sorry pals, but the best Mamdani-Trump presser takes are over there right now.

MTG probably “wow Trump incited violence against political opponents (again), wait am I also a political opponent now. I should not be an opponent. I will resign and everything will be okay.”

Sorry, I’ve been on the bad site gorging myself on memes.

"I can help some people" GO TELL YOUR WHITE SONS... THIS IS YOUR HERO!

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

In the UK, red-faced gammon nationalists will post hate speech against red-haired people, like they’re a separate racial category. Today, I learned that they think “gingers” are more likely to convert to Islam??? Whiteness really is a moving target.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

Few things bug me more than higher ed leaders saying that we lost our mission and lost the trust of the public, when we have actually been the target of a decades-long smear campaign by the right wing that worked. The moment we’re losing our mission is right now, in capitulation.

I…what.

I mean, look,

i believe people when they say linux has gotten better in the last few years. what i'm skeptical of is that linux Guys have improved. i will not use an OS where i'm at high risk of someone calling me stupid for not liking some aspect of the experience. i must be allowed to hate the computer

I’m sorry what.

comrade JCO gets it completely CHOP FROM THE TOP (solemn vow never ever to screenshot badsite; solemn exception for this urgent story; rally against these anti-intellectuals detonating public goods for the working people of NJ!)

Crypto isn’t only for doing crimes! It’s also a way to bring desperate people under the control of gangsters in anarchocapitalist dystopias such as Gaza may become.

"The owner of the shuttered Three Mile Island nuclear plant has been awarded a $1 billion federal loan guarantee that will enable it to shift onto taxpayers some of the risk of its plan to restart the Pennsylvania facility and sell the electricity to Microsoft for its data centers."

"Law Enforcement Mutual Aid Fund sets aside $25 million annually [..] to fight natural disasters." "California public universities responded to the student protests less like dissent and more like a natural disaster." #California #USA #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Policing #Protest #Education #Genocide

Hearings repeatedly ended with cases dismissed by the government, allowing plainclothes federal agents to carry out arrests in courthouse hallways in close coordination with attorneys from the Department of Homeland Security. Here are some images of what that looks like.

Resurrecting age gap discourse to deflect from sex trafficking minors is really…something

“The government is allowed to post real death threats on social media but you’re not allowed to post sarcastic death threats on social media” is actually a pretty apt distillation of power and violence

This is easily an order of magnitude larger than the number of firings in the entire years-long 'cancel culture' panic. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

"Terrence told jail officials again and again that he'd been raped — five times." "He filed reports, flagged officers and in two instances, pointed to video that seemed to back him up." "Now, New York City is paying the 32-year-old $4 million to settle." #NewYork #USA #Incarceration #Courts
