I have not watched, played, viewed, or opened this video at all, on any device, yet Youtube shows some playback progress. Is this a dark pattern to make me think I had previously started watching it to get me to click it?

Actually wild the number of people on bere calling for Schumer to step down. @schumer.senate.gov you have no idea what you’ve just unleashed. @democrats.org you better be paying attention.

This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.

NEW: I’m calling on Trump to cancel private jet flights instead of commercial airlines. Private jet flights often take a single billionaire passenger, but still put real strain on our air traffic control system.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

Russ Douthat certainly ruins the workplace

How can I get away with claiming no issues while also reporting outages, too?

after Fetterman and Polis, it’s hard to think of a Dem politician who has torched their own career as much as Whitmer has over the past year

This is a masterclass in repeating carefully workshopped robotic talking points that miss the forest for the trees and are irrelevant to the question at hand: Trump chose to build a ballroom instead of funding programs that would feed those kids.

@kenwhite.bsky.social can POTUS pardon, commute, or otherwise interfere with charges/convictions within the DC jurisdiction for crimes like, off the top of my head, running over protestors?

Jack Kirby: "I was raised in an area where you had a lot of gangsters. I know what gangsters do. Hitler's gonna want war. You start jumpin' around and giving him what he wants, he's gonna feed on your weakness."

🚨 Mayor Brandon Johnson of Chicago answers this question brilliantly. 1/2

This is real Abundance.

His plans make Bernie and AOC look like shills for billionaires.

Seriously if this is what he actually believes, then invoke the insurrection act, round up the governor, the mayor, and your own judge, and see how it goes. You're in charge now, asshole. Get the party started

I am just so fucking proud of her.

@acollierastro.bsky.social I watched Sabina Hossenfelder years ago, but stopped when she started making weird anti-trans videos and getting on the anti-science crackpot grift. Please don’t get discouraged, most YouTube commenters are idiots.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

This is treason.

me: i think with most things, if you look at it on a case-by-case basis, you'll find that especially these days it ends up being this whole issue where you have to sort of look at it through a lens of, hey, you know when it comes to this thing by its very nature isaac chotiner: i completely agree

jokes like this reinforce and spread addiction stigma, and that stigma is a huge reason why they successfully gutted public health work addressing addiction and overdoses. and it’s why they’re targeting adhd medications next. this isn’t funny. it’s harmful

“We’re going to keep showing up until they stop abducting our neighbors.” This is what leadership looks like. May we all be inspired to be brave and stand up for others in our communities who can no longer stand up for themselves.

Hey Firefox users.

How about “fuck” and “off”. I’d reply to his post, but @radiofreetom.bsky.social is a snowflake that only allows some people to reply.

On the left: Nate Cavanagh, a 28-year-old DOGE staffer and college dropout. On the right: Mohammad Halimi, a 53-year-old exiled Afghan scholar. This is the story of how DOGE targeted Halimi on social media. Then the Taliban took his family. 🧵

🚨🚨" It was humiliating to watch an American president act like a happy puppy upon encountering the dictator of a much poorer, much less important state, treating him as a superior". Spot-on by @anneapplebaum.bsky.social of #anchorage debacle.

Seconding this sentiment. Ill tidings all around to anyone who uses their power to undermine, suppress , and endanger the freedom and safety of trans people, including JK Rowling.

Discover Weekly? More like discover, weakly.

@jasmineforus.bsky.social how can I donate to the fund to help support your quorum break? None of the articles reporting on it actually mention any specific fundraising activities. I’m not a TX resident but am I US citizen.

This @figma.com error page is adorable.

'Meredith,' some guys ask, 'why won't you shove AI into Signal?' Because we love privacy, and we love you, and this shit is predictable and unacceptable. Use Signal ❤️

My “you’re over 30” advice is hold onto the bannister. Stairs will kill you and not even look back

We feed you. They hunt us.

Anyone watch that hilariously depressing "interview" Piers Morgan did with real, actual physicist @seanmcarroll.bsky.social and sentient Markov text generator @ericweinstein.bsky.social? It's worth watching to see what happens when Eric leaves the safe space of JRE. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5m7L...

Just tried @Reddit Answers for the first time. This is why users need to be given control, or at least visibility into, the system prompt. This is some serious "many people are saying..." energy. YC's Peter Koomen recently wrote about this. Highly suggested reading: koomen.dev/essays/hors...
