It's not blurred, it doesn't cut off. It's just a clear video of a man beating a woman to death with a hammer. Posted by the president of the United States.

Trump just posted a graphic video of a woman being beaten to death with a hammer

I hope the entire editorial staff at Ninefax call a strike over this, wildcat or otherwise. Insisting journalists and editors plagiarise their work is beyond walkoff-worthy. www.crikey.com.au/2026/04/09/n...

I realise this is a story about racism, but I don't think the ABC ought to be embedding social media posts by an actual neo-Nazi publication without telling readers what that publication is. This is not just any "announcement" news. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

A fascinating look into this mentality. Why do you need to compete with a Fortune 500 company? You are a diner! The number one thing I want to see is photos of YOUR food, not a generic AI burger or your mac and cheese animated beyond recognition

Even at my most generous to the capabilities of LLMs their primary use case in these newsrooms would be a further smoothing of brains and the hastening of their own redundancy - it's antithetical to actual journalism, to the extent it still exists

we had this already it was called “the entirety of fantasy, SF, and horror” (also I will reiterate for the thousandth time that MORE DUDES SHOULD READ ROMANCE, you are missing out)

folks we have a real world “how can that be profitable for Frito-Lay???” situation on our hands

Ben Roberts Smith stands credibly accused of just straight up murdering a bunch of civilians, including KICKING A MAN OFF A CLIFF. The clearest definition of war crimes imaginable. Watching the fringe right of Australian politics/media avoid talking about that is as wild as it is predictable.

Anytime you act aghast at someone saying we had 9/11 coming you sound like a fucking child. Worse, a Republican. As if we can do whatever we want to anyone around the world, kill as many as we like through bomb or bullet or economic sanction, and never ever face a single consequence.

In Bariworld world, Kanye releasing a single literally called "Heil Hitler" is less antisemitic than Ms. Rachel.

While killing dozens of people in Lebanon (MOPH says 112, civil defense counts 250+, until now), Israel still found time to kill another one of our colleagues in Gaza.

We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today. Tell ProPublica’s management you won’t cross the picket line: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...

400 dead so far, over 1000 injured, dozens and dozens missing. This is one hour into the massacre. I have no idea what the death toll will be in the end. Also, they have announced “another wave” of attacks coming

Massacre upon massacre in Beirut in the last hour. AUBMC announced a “code disaster.” Over 100 airstrikes in 10 minutes across the country. One hit right behind my house. Sirens ambulances & the smell of sulphur. The city is in total chaos the people in complete panic

#OtD 8 Apr 2013 former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher died. Street parties spontaneously broke out across the country. Pictured: Thatcher being welcomed to hell by one of her good friends and supporters, serial paedophile Jimmy Savile stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1076...

We didn't deserve this day.

How fuel price rises hurt a charity that runs food banks (now more needed than ever!) – New fuel surcharges on deliveries of essential goods – Fewer donations, as donors can't afford to drive to drop them off – Suppliers who once delivered now ask ASRC to collect goods, so ASRC must buy more fuel

FWIW the test will be the budget. If there is no large-scale public investment in batteries, EVs, public transport and renewables as a crisis response, with specific help for renters, lower incomes and farmers, then the Albanese government will have failed to meet the moment.

Can't tell you how many members of Congress who *at best* had nothing to say when I asked about the Minab girls school attack. There is a profanely cold detachment inside Capitol Hill, a mode completely unrecognizable to common human decency I wish I could properly convey to you.

I hate having to do the "look, they're normal just like us" post, but sometimes you have to do that when American propaganda tries to convince everyone Iranians are "animals".

Whoa 🤯 The Moon, in full eclipse, with the #Artemis II Orion spacecraft. Part of the Moon and spacecraft are lit by Earthshine, and both Saturn and Mars are visible to the lower right. Incredible. Details: images.nasa.gov/details/art0...

Here's what the late Jim Lovell told me in 2019.

Ben Robert-Smith the 7News General manager?

mods are asleep post camera falling out of plane and landing in a pig pen to be licked by a pig

This is unbelievably bleak

To be clear, Dahl *was* antisemitic. He literally said shit like "they control the media"; in this very review he talks about America being "dominated" by "the great Jewish financial institutions". There is literally a whole play about this review and an interview from around the same time

the best time to get off substack was years ago. the second best time is now.

THREAD. Substack is evil. I can't emphasise this enough. Their line that anyone can leave easily & take their subscriber list with them is bullshit. I left & it cost me a large sum of money. It forced me briefly back onto Substack to try to clear up the mess... tomcox.substack.com/p/an-explana...

4 is the only true ball-knowing answer

It’s amazing that tons of people, including celebrities who have public reputations to uphold, will openly support a man who released a song called “Heil Hitler” AND is credibly accused of sexual violence and abuse but will NOT openly support celebrity women who have come forward about being abused

I loved Pittsburgh. Great dive bars, vintage shopping, ate pierogis at a Polish festival in the Cathedral of Learning, saw a free Titus Andronicus/Hold Steady show out in Braddock that was an initiative of then-mayor John Fetterman (it was 2011 and he seemed cool! even gave me his email. sad!!!)

*movie trailer guy voice*

𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧: And then Kim Gordon goes "Have you heard the new Updog record?" and I go "What's Updog?" 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞: Unbelievable. 𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧: I thought Updog was one of those hipster Matador bands. 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞: Wait weren't they on K Records? 𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐲: Thurston also called me Moby by mistake.

In 2000, John Waters donated 372 pieces of his art collection to the Baltimore Museum of Art. They named a rotunda after him in their gallery. He requested an all-gender restroom be named for him instead. #BOTD

an inspiration for us all. she got out.

I hate every bot I see. From gpa to gpt

Taken literally this is the Times saying it doesn't have an opinion on if women should vote and I for one do take it literally

It's a ubiquitous, often overlooked, and deeply horrific feature of ethnic cleansing campaigns: violence and murder towards those members of "protected" communities who try to protect or help their friends and neighbours of targeted communities. (a couple of examples from Bosnia)

As a nation, we have decided that a teenager cannot navigate a social media algorithm, but a 10-year-old can navigate a courtroom. For Australia's 2025 UN youth representative Satara Uthayakumaran, the contradiction is impossible to ignore.

It is amazing this type of guy has turned out to be real

The protests in Syria for Palestine are significant and impressive but people who call them the largest demonstrations in the Arab world in years for Palestinian liberation ignore Yemen.

How long are educated Americans going to put up with the level of idiotic jingoistic propaganda that passes for “foreign” reporting from the supposedly prestige press like this from NYT
