Cows itch, just like us. But Veronika the cow takes things into her own hands. Or rather: into her mouth. Scientists say it’s the first experimentally verified instance of cattle using a tool. https://wapo.st/3NzJ84A

This whole thread was a wild ride, glad Duck Man is safe tho

I don't have enough sarcasm as I just woke up (& plan to go right back to bed) but 'WOWWWWW hashtag vibe coding amirite?'

There is a B&W version that's low ink friendly in the replies as well if you wanna mass print & spread around your neighborhood!

Bluesky fires shots at Twitter (X)’s Grok “Sad Epstein isn’t alive to use Grok. He would have loved it”

#PA #Pennsylvania #ICE Finally got it neatly in a doc. These are collected from various sources so that way it's in one place Please add on in the replies if you have leads as well. Wishing you safety, PA Peeps #Montco #Delco #Philly #UpperDarby write.ellipsus.com/edit/5d0ddc0...

This is Chunk Norris. He's a big cheeked man that made a poor life decision one night being greedy with wet food. But that decision has had positive outcomes. #CatRescue #TNR

Blaming non-voters and third party voters for inherently authoritarian systems that keep going on with oppressive behaviors after elections is cheap cope. It's weak scapegoating to not directly address that electorialism's neither democracy nor does anything to stop elitism. Grow up, vote shamers.

Look for the helpers

Imma just leave this here bc I'm also v tired of seeing this. Hitler learned from White AmeriKa. substack.com/@mostlyholyb...

We didn't punish the South hard enough after the civil war and we're still dealing with this bullshit 160 years later as a result. Should be a lesson to Democrats that there can be no kumbaya with MAGA after Trump is gone. Everyone who broke the law must go to prison.

#PA #Pennsylvania Fam this is where I've heard #ICE has been the past few months from various sources. I'm sorry it's skewed Eastern as that's where I be, but please add to it in replies. Maybe we can get a list going & I can eventually get like a spreadsheet or something cooking. Love youse

Hey, #Philly & #PA Fam, we know ICE has already infiltrated our state. I've heard some whisperings that they are scoping out Philly w/ the IDF (idk the validity but who knows atp). Regardless, be very cautious around the ones wearing vests that say ERO (Enforcement & Removal Operations). Stay safe

Been thinking about this one too. It is truly monstrous and goes beyond doing it for the money or even for the racism. It’s doing it for sick amusement—it’s just a bonus they get paid and (effectively) total immunity.

Last year's arrest of Mahmoud Khalil was more than just a chilling act of political repression, it was an attack on all of our constitutional rights. Now, as the crackdown on pro-Palestinian free speech continues, Mahmoud is being threatened with rearrest. Mahmoud is free—and must remain free.

Bluesky going to work over on Twitter

Trump yells “fuck you” and flips off an auto worker in Michigan who yelled “pedophile protector” www.tmz.com/2026/01/13/t...

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

Trump suddenly cares about brown people ( #Iran )... historically, when the US cares about brown women, it means they're going to kill them en masse (bomb them). How about the US reforms the govt killing its own protesters here at home? 👀

UPDATE: DHS addresses the video of an ICE Officer going into a port-a-potty with a detainee, insisting it’s a man not a woman and saying there is nothing to see here. Without the person’s name, how can anyone believe a word these people say anymore?

My face when someone uses #RadicalOptimism instead of nihilism

Mattel Inc. is introducing an autistic Barbie on Monday as the newest member of its line intended to celebrate diversity, joining a collection that already includes Barbies with Down syndrome, a blind Barbie, a Barbie and a Ken with vitiligo.

#GVerse 👏 Sheriff Rochelle Bilal is very clear when she says #FuckICE WILL be arrested for illegal activity. They are “made up, fake, law enforcement. You will not be able to hide & you don’t want her smoke! #ReneeNicoleGood #DemsUnited This👇💯🇺🇸

this is all it’s really about for them. Not domestic policy, not “economic anxiety”, just an endless desire to punish stand-ins for the Mommy who forced them take a bath, even if it tanks their own quality of life.

But Trump wants a Nobel Peace Prize

A displaced Palestinian girl was filmed gathering bread from the ground in a Gaza displacement camp after Israeli forces bombed the tents.

Guys, gals n pals, please remember to compliment someone today, hydrate, & have a good day/night. I know It's getting increasingly more difficult to take care of yourself with everything going on, but remember that you cannot properly show up for those you love if you don't show up for yourself 💜

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

I don't know if eggs are cheaper in Trump's America, but life seems to be.

404 Media has obtained material that explains how two surveillance systems ICE recently purchased, work. One can track phones without a warrant and follow their owners home or to their employer. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. Scoop by @josephcox.bsky.social: www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

I reached out to more than three dozen X advertisers, xAI investors, politicians, and government agencies about the growing library of sexualized deepfakes generated with Grok—now including Renee Good. I only heard back from four, with three declining to comment. spitfirenews.com/p/grok-deepf...

Wallahi the children will have universal healthcare!

If nothing happens after a white woman dies, then we are truly lost. The people of color who died we knew no one was going to care... but 👀 Pay very close attention, people

Mayor Jacob Frey: “To ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

RSVP by 1/13: In this first session of 2026, we ask “What Is Socialism?” to introduce attendees to DSA’s foundational commitment. We'll consider the complicated history of the term, the core principles that unite its advocates, and its current status in contemporary American politics.

i think the worst new word of 2025 i started seeing used everywhere was “vibecoding”. please stay on linkedin with language like that

Borscht Belt comic: Boy I tell ya, the manufacturing economy in the United States sure is dead. Audience: How dead is it? Borscht Belt comic: Why, these days they don't even bother to manufacture consent! *rim shot* (Comic is dragged off-stage by a big hook, deported to a black site)

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

I fondly remember this commercial. I miss when advertising was this fun & whacky. Now they don't even really bother to be entertaining unless MAYBE it's for the Super Bowl
