Do YOU remember “the 21st night of September?” Earth Wind & Fire’s co-writer Allee Willis said she told the band: “We can’t leave ‘baa-dee-ya’ in the chorus. That has to mean something.’” Maurice White replied: “No, that feels great. That’s what people are going to remember. We’re leaving it.”

Study covering 854 European cities finds that officially reported heat deaths remain ‘significantly underestimated’.

The European Commission also proposes sanctions on ‘extremist ministers’ in the Israeli government and violent settlers.

Trump is putting his name on infrastructure projects paid for by President Biden’s 2021 infrastructure bill — a bill Trump fought against.

More than 100,000 people marched in Hungary’s annual Pride parade in Budapest on Saturday after Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ban on the event backfired, turning what is usually a low-key parade into a mass rally against his government. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/28/w...

"Without school washrooms I was always distracted in class, worrying about where I could go when I needed to," says Shukria, a 5th grader in #Afghanistan. New 🚰 facilities in 165 new schools across the country are transforming the learning experience for thousands of girls like her.

📢Important announcement! Today, the @asapdiscovery.bsky.social consortium disclosed the structure of our preclinical candidate, ASAP-0017445, a promising broad-spectrum antiviral with potent activity against SARS-CoV2 and other viruses belonging to the same family. (1/10)

NEW: I emailed the band. “We broke up with him first. We quit Twitter in 2022 when he was only half a Nazi. Then someone else took our handle, pretending to be our official account, so we filed a legal complaint to put a stop to that—which is why @dropkickmurphys shows as suspended."

Shot, chaser

EXCLUSIVE: This just happened onstage in front of 6,000 Bostonians at the Dropkick Murphys concert. "This is America, no kings here!" @dropkickmurphys.com nails it again!!

She overstayed her visa (not a criminal violation) in the first place because she couldn't leave.

Since the start of COVID, the number of people reporting a disability soared. Yet the majority of the world acts like COVID is over, and Long COVID doesn't exist.

Finally, social media that's billionaire-proof. ⚡ Bluesky's first IRL ads spotted in @boston.gov @mbta.com.

Health interventionist thread - This is how I predict next year's flu vaccine & flu season will go, with resulting long-term fallout:

This makes it seem like they are stopping their funding of climate change. If only.

A new government tracker claims DOGE has saved billions from ending federal contracts. But an NPR analysis of the data finds the claimed savings don't add up.

Some of the signs at today’s Silver Spring, MD #TeslaTakedown protest.

Sometimes I'll just make thumbnail graphics for YouTube videos that don't exist.

Are there memes on this app? Shitposting? I haven't seen much nonsense since I joined.

There are not enough obscenities in my soul to respond to the Amazon Pharmacy ads.

Awesome 🙃

Deleting everything doesn't change the fact that we've crossed 1.5 C I don't know what to tell you

BREAKING: Levels of influenza nationwide are now at the highest they have been since the peak of the 2009 swine flu pandemic. -CDC

“As a nation, we still have not recovered from the physical, mental and social toll of COVID. What will happen if bird flu starts coursing through us?”

Covid is still around and now we also have bird flu and TB coming into the picture, not to mention flu, rsv, even "just" a cold! No one should have to get sick!

JUST IN: Influenza virus may survive pasteurization in milk and food. Non-infectious flu virions may preserve their infectious potential after pasteurization at 75°C, reactivating when exposed to trypsin. Current pasteurization standards may not completely neutralize influenza viruses in food.

And DOGE isn't even real. It never actually got created.

Wow. So not only were several bird flu studies left out of today’s CDC Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, some data on bird flu briefly appeared in the online report and then was quickly removed.

"The gunman who killed 10 people in an attack on a school in Sweden shouted “you should go away from Europe” in between firing shots at his victims, video analysis shows" "...the school offers Swedish classes for immigrants and programmes for people with learning disabilities."

Ok now walk back on the rest of them

I realise that for many we can experience burnout ,outage fatigue with the endless stream of noxious news spreading across the globe.However, this atrocity committed by a Rwandan- backed rebel group should not be scrolled past. Sadly, there are many newsworthy stories beyond the orange man’s idiocy.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge has just BLOCKED the Trump administration from enforcing an executive order that required moving transgender inmates from women's to men's prisons.

Trump just said with Netanyahu that he expects the United States to “own and develop Gaza.” Speechless.
