Crazy that the mayor-elect of NYC and the Pope are pretty much the two most beloved political figures right now

If you haven’t seen the highlights of the Las Vegas GP they are here 👇

A sitting president shouting that people should be jailed for telling the military to follow the law. You can hear the panic in every capital letter.

The amount someone earns after completing a professional degree does not accurately portray its total value in our society. If it was a true reflection of social worth then educators, nurses, and librarians would be paid high six figures.

Not that anyone asked, but the country with the World's lowest life expectancy (Chad) has a higher life expectancy than the country with the highest life expectancy 120 yrs ago (Sweden). Think Science and especially Medicine has somehow failed you? Think again. #ScienceMatters

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

People who adore the LLM-machine, that by design has no concern for truth, must have no concern for truth

Marjorie Taylor Greene stepping down on January 5, 2026. Just one day before the 5-year anniversary of the insurrection she supported.

Trump Imposes 100% Tax On Movies Where Slaves Escape

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

This young man has it exactly right.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

literally a whole babylon 5 episode where they talk about the obligation to disobey illegal orders like 49 times

Unpopular opinion: I'd like journalists to go back to doing reporting, and leave the big "think pieces" to people who have PhDs and can distinguish between historical/scientific fact and a bumper-sticker. This is an Ezra Klein subtweet not limited at all to Ezra Klein.

Solar capacity is expected to triple based on new projects in the pipeline. Total global solar capacity, including all projects in construction and planned, is expected to reach almost 3 terawatts, with 80% concentrated in just 15 countries. Data @globalenergymon.bsky.social

They are hate symbols, no matter what the Coast Guard puts in its revised regulations.

I* do see quite a lot of AI-porn reaction, and maybe a little bit of AI hacker-mafia crime reaction, but practically nothing about AI's dire role in terrorism and narcotics.

this, *this*, is the greatest crossover of all time

"Some days the 420 just doesn't last as long." -erm

Reform’s previous leader in Wales had been handed a 10 year prison sentence for being a Russian asset. Other prominent politicians happened to be making Kremlin adjacent statements at the same time, the question “why” should follow them around relentlessly.

my job mostly involves googling science things all day, and it's been terrible to see how much worse that's become over the last few years. but not being able to trust government websites for basic science information really takes things to a new low

"Critics say" is the biggest cop-out in journalism, just an obvious weak-ass deflection of reality that media use for granted now.

It is not treason or sedition to remind our military to follow the law and their oaths — it is patriotism. That Trump called for the deaths of Democratic officials in response underscores the need for such warnings.

So the usual suspects omit BJ from the headlines and ramp up anti lockdown rhetoric and the £200m cost of the inquiry. How about getting those Tory bastards who profited from the VIP lane to pay?

My favorite moon landing conspiracy is that it was faked but they hired Stanley Kubrick to direct it and he was so dedicated to make it look real he demanded that they shoot on location.

This tracks. Also, uniforms will be replaced with brown shirts, though anything designed by Hugo Boss is acceptable.

Today, the president of the United States said that multiple US senators should be put to death for treason and articles of impeachment have not been filed yet. This country is cooked. Done. Finished.

Every article I see on some legal decision is like "Judge stays ban on overturning the prohibition of temporary stoppage of cloture vote on bill to prevent exclusion of enjoining proscribed veto due to Illegitimi non carborundum."

I’m howling.

Saab has promised that if Canada picks the Gripen, it’ll be built right here in Canada. #cdnpoli That means thousands jobs, full control over maintenance. Ongoing talks are to swap the U.S. engine for a Canadian-made Rolls-Royce one from Montreal, which would break free from U.S. export controls.

In related news, the claim ‘the Tooth Fairy does not actually take lost baby teeth from under pillows’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that magical beings are secretly thieving teeth in the dead of night…” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."

Wanna see a visual on the result of the Republican attack on public health? I’ve got you covered. This is from Pew Research Center’s most recent survey, showing a 27% drop in Republican support for school vaccine requirements from 2016-2025.

Let’s keep the boycott going! Everyone has different needs and abilities so consider doing what you can, as you can. Every little bit helps.

Ain’t that the truth.

Albertans don’t want to pull out a credit card when they visit a doctor. They’ve told Conservative Premiers this time and time again, which is why Danielle Smith promised to protect public health care in the last election. Danielle Smith won’t stop lying to us. #abhealth #ableg #abpoli
