At northwestern it shall hence be called no Black students allowed Friday

Elon Musk and the Trump administration gleefully shutting down USAID “has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children.” People throw around terms like genocide quite freely online but it’s hard to find other words to describe this level of man-made death.

Colleges are paying the US government for the privilege of admitting fewer students of color.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Ta-Nehisi Coates asks Palestinian scholar & writer Tareq Baconi “what is it about this genocide particularly” that has changed us? Baconi, who has written extensively on Hamas & the history of Palestinian resistance, points to 3 factors. It’s happening in full view of the world, yet still allowed...

“Your cultural heritage would look brilliant in the British Museum.”

Some of the names on this chart are in even better shape as they are using raw debt to equity instead of net debt to equity. Eg $GOOG has $37B in debt but $100M in cash.

Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society: Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

Every week now there’s a story that proves the UK’s lack of a bill of rights is a disaster

Love this

they are removing a big australian beach christmas artwork from redfern station (a huge train station) because it's ai garbage. kangaroos have koala heads and some animals have missing limbs and one of them is WEARING A BRA

WIFE: I learned that the day after Thanksgiving is the busiest day of the year for plumbers... ME: Because everyone clogs the toilets? WIFE (eyes narrowing): ... because people dump turkey grease down the sink.

Wait this is the first time I’m noticing Al Zaidi got pulled down backwards after launching the second shoe. Pretty impressive head-movement defense by Bush. Solid display of athleticism all around.

ICE DETAINED MARILYN. Fuck these people. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

A bit too on the nose for thanksgiving

The inventor of the open plan kitchen wanted to be able to sneak bites of dinner all day without having to help cook.

Early Gen X is the last generation to see what building adequate housing even looks like (construction everywhere, all the time). If we even attempted to build enough, there are two generations of adults who would say we are overbuilding and try to slow it. Housing is cooked for a long time.

Olivia Nuzzi isn't unique but a symptom of a news media so thoroughly and willingly complicit in fascism that almost none of it will survive the necessary denazification.

Wondering if Benz is selling this at a loss & planning to stop sales if it gets too popular…

Pediatricians say vaccines do not cause autism. A bear-eating heroin addict who fantasizes about sucking his own semen out of his lovers' orifices says they do. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

The VP of Marketing at Campbell's Soup is asleep at the wheel if they can't spin this crisis into marketing gold. "Yeah we make food for poor people. So what? What're you made of money?" And TIL that Campbell has a role that is "Executive Vice President, Snacks!" Someone go endorse me on LinkedIn!

"I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."

AI kind of feels like the endgame of this bit Graeber described in the original Bullshit Jobs essay: these people have been so thoroughly cleaved from any sense of purpose that they resent those who have one. They hate artists for their skill and think poverty should be the price of having a calling

This is the takeaway.

I don't think every or even most journalists are this utterly corrupt. The investigative folks I know have always conducted themselves pretty scrupulously, and I'm currently forced to conclude that's why they haven't hit the big-time

Boar's Head has ANOTHER Listeria infected product, and this time it's cheese. I would not trust this company again without substantial changes. www.eatingwell.com/boars-head-c...

“There is another.”

And QAM is relatively simple compared to OFDM and future mechanisms! THIS IS THE SIMPLE ONE.

Pharrell Williams confirmed as another world famous multi-millionaire who chose to live in a house that looks like it should be called the North Strabane Esat-Digifone Retail Hub & Business Park.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

National Guard soldiers didn't sign up to be deployed as local police indefinitely as part of someone else's political stunt. They're not set up to be local police, they never should have been deployed.

Old enough to remember Very Serious Journalists who lapped up the Nuzzi piece on Biden last summer as gospel and if you think anyone in that category is going to offer a mea culpa you’ve got another thing coming.

Politicians who make political decisions to deploy the military into situations that get service members killed for no good reason. They need to be held accountable.

Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

precisely my thought. the president and his dumbass republican allies put these men and women into harm’s way for a political stunt and look what has happened

Ah forgot to ask y'all the provocative key question: If more cops don't even reduce the murder rate in the most violent, highest homicide, most dangerous neighborhoods in Baltimore and Chicago... Then... What are we paying *billions* of dollars for? 🤡

Beige Book word counts: uncertainty continues to fall as focus on tariffs declines, while labor markets offer a very mixed picture. Hiring was mentioned near the most frequently on record but layoff mentions also accelerating; that latter indicator has worked as a recession indicator historically.

Wow, the swaps market is now centered on 2.5% inflation across any timeframe you choose @augurinfinity A remarkable chart.

Context matters

They don't have to ban vaccines outright. They can just force people to jump through enough hoops to get vaccines that they eventually stop trying and give up.

My favorite variation of this is "they're forcing everyone to use it because nobody wants to". Look at the app stores! These tools are incredibly popular!
