1/3 Pollutants don't stay in the water. In San Diego, we showed they become a previously unrecognized source of air pollution. Once inhaled, toxic chemicals and airborne pathogens have been linked to cancer, heart attacks, and dementia. As water pollution rises globally, this is everyone's problem.

Iran posted photos of an airplane that has two crew members so they’re either totally clueless or this didn’t really change anything.

Additionally, the side of this building reportedly sustained damage that is not visible in the satellite image. But there is debris visible next to the location of the reported damage as well as what appears to be a hole in the roof. Both are not visible in older imagery.

it's not supposed to look like that is it?

US funding for global internet freedom ‘effectively gutted’

Better.

Why is no one talking about the fact that TikTok has been down for at least 10 hours? It appears that nothing new has gone live on the platform today.

This video contains graphic imagery. Eyewitness video shows a US Border Patrol agent shooting and killing a man in Minneapolis on January 24.

i think gavin newsom fucking sucks and if you ever try to guilt me into voting for him i’ll scream

SCOOP: 25 year old shot by ICE doesn't even have a criminal record, despite DHS claims to the contrary

The official DHS statement says an officer shot someone because they had a snow shovel.

People shouldn’t be able to avoid seeing this by default. Bluesky is a joke.

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

Generating these images is now a huge proportion of what's being asked publicly of Grok on X. It's generating nonconsensual images of people in revealing clothes, manipulated into sexual poses and otherwise degraded. Stop participating in that platform.

Australia allows children 12 and up to obtain firearm permits but they need to be at least 16 to post to instagram.

This AI PAC is run by someone who was a staffer for not only Andrew Cuomo, but also Chuck Schumer.

it does seem like there’s a major—though potentially fleeting—opportunity to invest in left-wing media. more than a million people in the most populous city in america just enthusiastically elected a democratic socialist and the world is watching. putting $$ towards left media rn is good business.

UPDATE: A lawsuit in Ghana confirms this Omni ICE flight held 14 third-country nationals, at least seven of whom still appear to be imprisoned. That brings the Ghana total to 42 people on three ICE flights. I've updated the third-country removal tracker: hardghistory.ghost.io/tracking-all...

Why do they play the World Series games so late? Do they no longer get enough viewership to justify starting earlier so people on the east coast will watch the whole games?

There you go again. Calling people you disagree with “Nazis.“

SAG-AFTRA Statement on the Suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live!

“in the colloquial sense” 🫠

While I mention Alan in the headline (because I care about that), most of the piece links his layoff to the long string of job cuts and other moves by PMC, which is apparently bleeding money. That revenue problem is also driving PMC's lawsuit against Google, which specifically mentions Rolling Stone

Legacy media is literally caping for white supremacy now. Quoting the man they’re venerating, whose proud life’s work was disparaging marginalized groups, is officially a firing offense, but calling for the homeless to be euthanized is not. Wild.

In fairness everyone involved is at a disadvantage here because Americans in general have no idea what leftist ideology even is

Yesterday's piece from @jamellebouie.net is the only high-profile piece I've seen that specifically discusses the watchlist, its effect on academics, and its effect on public attitudes toward academia as a whole. (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/09/13/o...

First the WSJ incorrectly reporting the bullet casings had "trans ideology" written on them, then The Guardian interviews some jagoff and prints claims that the shooter was "leftist," which the source then retracts. This is journalistic malpractice on a systemic scale.

Loved this show

Footnotes are always where you find the best burns

Around 5pm today, HSI and Park Police were conducting an arrest in downtown DC. Residents gathered around them to record, and when one tried to ask the guy being arrested what he was being accused of, a Park Police officer shoved him back and told him to stay 8 feet away.

"When I wrote that piece, the idea of exposing personal details of my life to scrutiny or criticism was terrifying," writes Esme Hewitt. "What I wasn’t expecting was for someone to take my words and claim them as their own."

NEW: Counsel for the migrant children say that, as they understand it, all putative class members have now “been deplaned and returned to ORR custody.” As for the delay, they add that they inadvertently overlooked the part of the court’s order requiring them to file a report.
