The last person to drop Gina Carano that quickly was Disney.

This. He had the chance to stop RFK from getting approved and betrayed his oath as a physician by voting for him. And in the end, Trump turned on him anyway. His replacement will of course be worse in many ways, should they win the general (which they probably will)

TIL there are frogs that live in the snow atop the French alps From Planet Earth III (BBC)

This is terrible. ICE separated a single mother from her son, and deported her without him, leaving him in the care of her sister’s abusive ex. Who murdered him.

Alien: And how did you run out of water? Earthling: Machines drank it. Alien: Machines. Earthling: We had to feed machines the water. Aliens: So the machines were holding your planet hostage for water. Earthling: No, we made the thirsty machines. They worked for us. Alien: End communication.

Call for media attention--Adelanto hunger strike. I can help w communication if you are working on a story. Very difficult to get information, what we know is in this thread.

the murder of juniper blessing is a horrifying reminder of the campaign of violence being waged by the most powerful against the vulnerable and the environment of hate being encouraged on all sides of the political spectrum

Juniper Blessing deserved to live. She deserved happiness and love and comfort and softness and safety and joy and beauty and health. She deserved gray hair and laugh lines.

britain is a true democracy where even Cuno from hit RPG disco elysium can stand for office

I... wha... but... why...? You know, I've seen our fall coming since '96 but somebody could have warned me how stupid it was all going to be.

Shocking that the two most corrupt justices (that we know of) are the two worst. Any democrat that runs on impeachingvthesextwo will get my vote.

Someone posted the other day that Americans were cheering on the destruction of our economy because we did not understand where our prosperity comes from. This is the illustration of that. It's our R&D and the impacts of colleges spending that drives much of it.

Aye, Georgia, early voting ends on Friday and the primary is on Tuesday. The Supreme Court election is on this ballot. It is not a primary, the winners are installed as judges. Go. Vote.

the cook county board criminal justice committee votes to advance a nearly $1 million expansion to sheriff tom dart's flock license plate reader network. voting no: stamps, anaya, vásquez this sets the proposal up for final approval during tomorrow's county board hearing.

For every complex problem there exists at least one solution that is clear, simple, and wrong. - H.L. Mencken Cutting gas tax is clearly in this category

An ICE removal flight operated by Journey Aviation just landed in Myanmar--the second time this year. Migrants onboard will have been shackled for 19+ hours. Previous Burmese deportees were immediately sent to a nearby torture prison, per @jamesstout.bsky.social. gillianbrockell.com/three-craven...

Sabers gotta stop taking bad penalties.

Yo, Buffalo, stop hitting the self destruct button or you're gonna be out in 5.

Here is Jason’s essay about being the first active player in one of the four major men’s U.S. sports to come out as gay. What an absolute hero who will never be forgotten: www.si.com/more-sports/...

When we talk about court reform, we can't only focus on the Supreme Court. The ability to run to their favorite illegitimatly clownish partisan 5th circuit judge has to be not only prevented, but retroactively sanctioned.

I only believe in one thing “the market can ALWAYS stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent”

Same. Found books by @cassmorriswrites.com @deathbybadger.bsky.social and Jennifer Donohue from here, and thats just off the top of my head.

OPINION: "K-12 teachers and students across the country are increasingly using AI in and out of classrooms, whether it is teachers turning to AI to refine lesson plans or students asking AI to help them research a particular topic," Tal Slemrod writes. www.mississippifreepress.org/opinion-usin...

It's disorienting living in the Wile E. Coyote portion of a country's life cycle. We ran off the cliff but haven't plummeted down yet. We're just now starting to hold up the big YIKES sign

It's not slop. It's worse. Slop can at least be used to feed pigs.

OK, that's a quality pun. But still...

hey so surely using an alt account to circumvent people who've blocked your account so you can screencap and post about them so your followers can harass them violates ToS right?

Just a reminder that there has not yet been a primary in Maine! The establishment Dems just want you to think it’s done! You do not have to be a ghoul & vote for right-wing voting, rape-apologist, Nazi-Platner! Write in Andrea LaFlamme for Maine! @andrealaflamme.bsky.social ✍️ 🗳️ she’s your Mamdani!

"When you are in a hole stop digging," is a lesson do many people on this website need to learn. This is doubly true for the people running it. Also, learn about the Streisand effect.

The Bors cartoon has always been the most accurate thing of the 21st century.

new zealander everlee wihongi was due to meet with her lawyer yesterday. then ICE moved her to their most notorious tent facility in texas: 3000 people, highest death rate, most sexual assaults. and today, she disappeared off the system. please RT: www.webworm.co/everleehasdi...

New research suggests that reliance on AI assistants can have a negative impact on people’s ability to think and problem solve.

The most represented demographic at January 6 in America was Car Dealership owners.

I'll just note that critical race theory predicts quite a lot about the current racial retrenchment and for being *correct* it was pilloried in the press and by some academics.

My t-shirt saying "This isn't a golden calf" is raising a lot of questions answered by my "this isn't a golden calf" t-shirt

So the book marketing AI scam (and I know this is a scam because the person sending it used three separate names for themself) is wild because it will absolutely remix my biography (which is what this is) and then just...make shit up.

"we go live now to Richard Dawkins, for his thoughts on AI."

It really doesn't matter if Roberts is lying to all of us or to himself (and all of us by extension). The fact remains his behavior is indistinguishable from that of a partisan hack, whether intentional or self delusional

Aside from the embrace of Wellness Eugenics I think RFK jr's moves all make sense if you are trying to destroy actual medical industries and replace them with wellness snake oil. We can all agree on the greed of the former but at least they create actual usable products

Apparently today is Raise Your Hand If You'd Be Dead Without Antidepressants Day. ✋🏻
