If a person has a long history of heroin addiction, worms eating their brains and cuts off the head of a shark tells you not to use Tylenol.....you should use Tylenol.

I don’t think I’ve ever loved anything as much as ICE loves violently attacking women.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Fact: one of @timharford.ft.com's tutorial partners on his economics degree was Liz Truss on.ft.com/46CB09v "We have just passed the third anniversary of Liz Truss becoming the prime minister, meaning the third anniversary of her no longer being prime minister will be on us before we know it."

Love to see it.

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

I am a member of the largest anti-fa group in the US. I am a retired US Air Force veteran. The U.S.’s active duty and veterans have fought against this bullshit since, ‘Continental Army formed by the Second Continental Congress on June 14, 1775.’ Fight back! for the 1st Amendment.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

“He may need to release the Epstein files to distract people from this (show).” —Jimmy Kimmel

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

ABC and Disney heard our voices, but broadcasters Nexstar and Sinclair still refuse to air Jimmy Kimmel’s show. Protest at Nexstar’s offices: events.boycottdisneyabc.com?utm_source=i... Tell your representative to investigate government censorship and the FCC: act.indivisible.org/sign/censors...

Negotiations have stalled. Trump keeps changing his policies. Ukrainians, backed by Europeans, are taking matters into their own hands, @anneapplebaum.bsky.social writes:

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

Surprised this is not getting more attention today! 💥 Release the #EpsteinFiles

This is the fishiest shit I've ever seen. We're supposed to believe the shooter wrote "Anti-ICE" in pen on a bullet and then shot detainees but not ICE officers?

One thing is true a lot of people are eating Nigel Farage's BS about foreigners. And when other people reinforce or don't challenge this BS, it only makes the problem worse. Condemn Farage he is a disgusting, racist man who is happy to spread any lie, racist, Tylenol or swan.

No one will stop comparing ICE to the Gestapo until they stop acting like the Gestapo

Hillary Clinton: "When I hear people like Kennedy talking about getting back to a time where we aren't vaccinating, we're drinking raw milk - yeah, & people didn't live! I mean, this is so crazy, it's so wrongheaded, it's so shortsighted and it's going to cause deaths... it already is costing lives"

"Pretending to like you is EXTRA!"

I thought I was a dead cert. I ticked the only two boxes with crosses:

I don't feel like it got the coverage it deserved last year but Tom Barrow's three-part documentary about The Miners' Strike is excellent stuff. I'm including it in my streaming picks for Sunday Times Culture. www.channel4.com/programmes/m...

🚨💔🚨 Nothing about this makes anything about this country decent, trustworthy, or honorable. This is depraved. 1/2

In what ways were things different in Palm Beach in the 1990s, Donald Trump?? Please, do tell. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Here's the video of TalkTV presenter André Walker dragging a climate protester from the Republicans Overseas dinner he organised in Windsor during Trump's visit @bylinetimes.bsky.social

Republican lawmakers told Fox News Digital they plan to introduce legislation to "honor" Charlie Kirk by printing his image and name on nearly half a million new silver dollar coins. Relevant reminder: Martin Luther King never got his image on US Currency. Make of it what you will.

Fat taxpayer contracts for Oracle and Palantir for a start

Maybe it's time to re-think our AI growth progress, and consider AI vs. the #ClimateCrisis, or putting AI to work to solve the #ClimateCrisis before expanding AI going forward.

CNN: The ratings are in for the first day. 6.26 million viewers on ABC. That was four times Jimmy Kimmel's average. And that's despite the show not even being available in a quarter of all American homes.

⚡️ Russian fuel crisis escalates as half of gas stations in occupied Crimea halt gasoline sales. The disruption follows a wave of Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian oil refineries in August, which have strained supplies and forced Moscow to cut exports.

1. The intense and all-encompassing institutional and societal pushback seen in some countries against any intervention to mitigate the impacts of Covid-19, whether that be vaccines, or air filtration / purification, or masks, is not simply as a result of mandates or lockdowns.

2. The memory of these policies is a component of it, to be sure, but the deep underlying reason is a shared yearning for the world to be as it was in 2019. In effect, 2019 has become the status quo that almost everyone needs to cling to. This need is pathological in nature.

4. Remember, then, that the tools to both prevent and mitigate infection are now no longer just tools; they are powerful symbols that disrupt and challenge the aforementioned societal agreement. This is why people react so very strongly to them. React irrationally to them.

5. Remember also, however, that, simply put, the virus doesn't care. It is incapable of caring. It is a molecular shark that wants to make more of itself. That's all it is. And regardless of human desires for an illusory status quo, it will keep killing and disabling people.

6. The great and tragic irony is that the more societies agree to ignore it, by prioritising a yearning for the status quo above all else, the more of a force multiplier our societies become for the virus. Societies have become the virus's greatest ally. /end

100% Viruses rely precisely on normal human sociabilities. Want to spread a virus? Just act as normally as possible. Want to disrupt transmission? Disrupt those normal patterns. Insisting on the 'urgency of normal" is the surest, shortest path to disaster.

Trump can whine, smear, & cry “terrorist,” but history’s receipts don’t lie: antifascists are the heroes who fought Nazis and defended democracy. His attack on Antifa is really an attack on dissent, freedom, & truth. Don’t let him rewrite history. Share it. www.digitaldrumbeat.com/p/trump-vs-a...

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DV1 On vaccination: when people shout “Freedom! Parental rights!” Do they consider herd immunity? Vaccination helps protect the entire community, including members who cannot take vaccines due to preconditions or other medical reasons.

They can tell us what was written on the bullets but not who the bullets killed. Not buying it.

I was in Denver a few days ago and saw this ICE recruitment ad targeting (and trashing) local law enforcement on the Colbert show (!) aired by a CBS local affiliate KCNC. Any taxpayers sick of OUR funds being used to recruit corporate fascist thugs, boycott KCNC, CBS and their advertisers!

Brendan Carr has increased Kimmel’s YouTube numbers Past monologues would get 3-4 million views So far yesterday’s has 11 million views Plus close to half a million new subscribers youtu.be/c1tjh_ZO_tY?...

Smart people know that the 2024 election was Rigged by ElonMusk!!! Musk even admitted it!!! #KamalaHarris Won! #VoterManipulation

Had a few thoughts about Jimmy Kimmel's return to late night, including a sense of the genre's power and the mistake of Sinclair and Nexstar executives keeping their affiliate stations out of the biggest broadcast event of the year. READ: https://loom.ly/npty8Yw
