BREAKING: Iran Suspends Entire 60-Day Negotiation Process With the U.S.

Mayor Mamdani at the Knicks Ceremony: “We as the city are often forced to come together in the moments in tragedy, what a blessing it is to come together in a moment of joy.” Made me cry, because it’s true.

A) This a properly brilliant piece of investigative journalism by BBC & @hopenot.bsky.social Huge kudos to all involved for doing the job the UK police & CPS failed to do: naming the alleged spymaster & clearly showing Kremlin’s role. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Vance just admitted we are paying Iran $300 BILLION in reparations. After losing the First World War, Germany paid US$5 billion (22 billion gold marks) in contemporary currency. Adjusted for inflation, that was still only around $90-95 billion in today's dollars.

The New York Times, in a page out of Orwell, sent an internal memo telling reporters and editors to eschew the terms “refugee camps, “occupied territory,” “ethnic cleansing” and, of course, “genocide” when writing about Gaza.

If true, that’s not a ceasefire. That’s a bribe.

Benjamin Netanyahu is an international fugitive. He is charged with the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts.

@mark-carney.bsky.social GENEVA – Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel said in a new report today.

NYT, April 7: Iran and US reach ceasefire deal to reopen Hormuz! NYT, June 14: Iran and US reach ceasefire deal to reopen Hormuz! What are we even doing here? Am I the only person alive with a working memory

America’s closest allies have been blocked from Anthropic’s Mythos

Brunson effectively gave up $113 million after signing a contract extension in 2024.

In other words: the U.S. gives Iran everything it wants immediately, including billions in cash, for a pinky promise to negotiate a future deal on the things the U.S. wants

This is true. With limited research funds, we have been using open-source models for our projects for nearly two years now. More companies will come to the same conclusion as hardware costs go down. www.tomshardware.com/tech-industr...

At the American Medical Association’s annual meeting, members of the group’s House of Delegates sent a clear message to their leaders: Call out RFK Jr. — even if it costs us in the pocketbook.

Trump is planning to rig mid-terms, probably using Musk again. How do I know? He's accusing Dems of rigging elections, to get us all to scream and scream and scream that there's no voting fraud. Then he executes voting fraud himself. He's simple and predictable.

"Something remarkable happened in April. For the first time in history, wind and solar generated more electricity than gas across the entire planet. Not in a country. Not in a region. Globally." Tons of great news here from Danny Kennedy (via @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter, which rules).

scientists ejected from a conference by police for handing out an editorial critical of the administration. yep, this is happening in America.

what’s happening in science- censorship, corruption, gutting of budgets, etc - is not as public as similar trends in media, etc but watch this video of researchers getting ejected from a scientific meeting for handing out an editorial in a premier science journal.

Love this 💕 ... "Young inventor who left engineering studies removes nearly 50 million kilograms of ocean plastic, aims to eliminate 90% of floating waste by 2040" techfixated.com/young-invent...

My opponents are all communists. In unrelated news, my government will be taking ownership of the means of production.

At this point he's flaunting his corruption with the obvious market manipulation. 👇

Please someone - anyone - fix this totally backwards mindset. It’s sick and it’s just so offensively wrong. Congress, the Supreme Court, and America’s current government: ALL of it needs to be purged. America desperately needs a clean slate. 😡

We live in a country where some of the best journalists are late night comedians & editorial cartoonists. THANK YOU Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, John Oliver, Jimmy Fallon, Tom Tomorrow, Mike Luckovich & Michael de Adder ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! #LAUGH_DO_NOT_DESPAIR ✊

when NASA built rockets they didn’t blow up.. when tax-evading, yacht-owning, humanity-hating, ghoulish-looking billionaires build them… well…

This is seriously fucked. Like for starters they’re using commercial web analytics that are in no way in line with federal privacy disclosure requirements…

Iran Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh: The U.S. is trying to sabotage the path of the diplomatic effort through this diplomatic circus that they are adopting…Trump talks too much. He says contradictory things within the same statement

Japanese anti-war group starts new campaign at Shinjuku Station, Tokyo. ”We want world peace! Fuck Trump!"

Oh FFS……. And THIS is an example of how the Dems are gonna make huge necessary changes after the election? I despair America. It seems like you have nowhere to turn, no hope. Dems are, in their own way, are complicit You’re in trouble America!! .

If this actually happens, it may rank as the single most corrupt act in the history of American politics. I cannot believe this is even under discussion.

I'm going to leave this here, without commenting on it .... www.rawstory.com/trump-assass...

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces. Equals 10 nuclear reactors Reduces heat island, shades cars The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight. Why aren't we doing this?

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admited that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from the Epstein files release. DEATH? The truth is probably far worse than anyone can imagine. Blanche needs to be proescuted as well.

NEW—I got an exclusive excerpt from a USAID whistleblower's new book that made me gasp multiple times. It details Trump's dismantling of the humanitarian aid agency & his team/DOGE's shocking ignorance to public health. 'Into the Wood Chipper' by Nicholas Enrich is out tomorrow. Read excerpt here:

“Four of [Don Jr]’s portfolio companies have won contracts from the Trump [regime] this year amounting to $735 MILLION… It looks like more Trump enrichment. When the public and the private are as intertwined as they are in this [regime] it’s hard to tell the difference.” @johncassidysays.bsky.social

Research mathematics is probably the single best use case of this stuff, with software engineering a close second.
