Some wonder if the Jimmy Olson series can hold up without Superman & Lois Lane, but in 2025, a fully staffed newspaper investigating super-villains rather than angling to get access to the super-villains by writing puff pieces about them is pretty fantastical. www.inverse.com/entertainmen...

I wrote about the Bureaucrat Watch List when it was created. It's McCarthyite in the purest sense, with the federal government firing these people also McCarthyite. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/governing-...

this is an insane response for basically any shooter profile and motivation

It was a simple two step process. (1) The internet destroyed the classified ads revenue stream propping up our nation's press. (2) Obama implemented a modest reform freeing some people from bondage to employer provided health care, & billionaires spent buckets of money building a racistonet.

God is begging you to send these National Guard troops home to be with their families. Stop ruining their lives so that Donald can cosplay fascism.

“After Mr. Paul learned from his wife that the authorities were threatening to deport her without a hearing, he said, their lawyer filed a lawsuit in federal court in San Diego to halt her removal &secure her release. In response, the government approved Ms. Paul’s green card on Tuesday & freed her”

no that ain't it @nytimes.com

the requirement is, of course, “be white” amp.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

They literally Google-translated Russia's demands, and called it the plan.

They literally say he violated terms of service by committing suicide.

Because "AI" is now is a large umbrella covering everything from pervert teddy bears to chatbots encouraging suicide - yeah people aren't happy with "AI" at all.

I keep forgetting that I want a machine to pollute my air and water while stealing from artists in order to mainstream lies and I'm so grateful the AI defenders are here to remind me!

If people want to understand why American politics went bananas in 2012, the reason is that the moderate black President took a modest but consequential step toward decoupling healthcare from employment and every billionaire immediately poured their entire portfolio into race-hate media

This is the type of hater energy that will fuel us in the years ahead.

This is just asinine:

Creating the most widely-known Reith lecture in history. Great job.

I repeat, RFK Jr doesn’t have to say “I’m banning vaccines” to effectively ban vaccines. Exhibit umpteen hundred and sixteen (this happened the same day they appointed the anti-vaxxing snake-oil salesman above as deputy CDC head):

you're telling me a right-wing catholic convert is just a protestant in disguise? shocked

To be clear (since NPR isn't), the "joke" is premised on the fact that Trump is kidnapping people w/o due process and shipping them to offshore concentration slave camps in defiance of court orders, human rights accordances, the U.S. constitution, all tenets of common decency, and international law.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should

The leaks are from a French Canadian. You wouldn't know them. We're just gonna do this Canadian thing all day long here.

“The Police Department will continue to allow precinct commanders to ignore parking rules, refusing to implement one of the major placard abuse reforms recommended by city probers earlier this year, Streetsblog has learned.” — nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/25/e...

Good thing there wasn’t a corrupt Big Ozone able to prevent this recovery from happening, or a corrupt president in the pocket of Big Ozone pretending the problem wasn’t real.

Definitely an overlooked point: The authoritarian far right, including its white nationalist iterations, are self-consciously global in scope and liberals need to adapt to that:

When cities build protected cycle tracks, families don’t have to choose between safety and freedom. Kids can ride on their own, dads can hang back, and everyone gets where they’re going safely and comfortably. Safe infrastructure turns everyday trips into independence, not stress, yo!

tech bro: i have made Artificial General Intelligence programmer: you fucked up a perfectly good calculator is what you did. look at it. it's got anxiety

This is how traffic engineers and planners approach every project, an excuse to increase car infrastructure

Amtrak's annual ridership was up 5%, hitting an all-time record high of 34.5 million rides nationwide over the last year. Amtrak Cascades also hit a record high, reporting 1.4% growth and coming in just short of crossing the million-ride mark for the year. Story: www.theurbanist.org/2025/11/24/a...

"Nope, no way, can't continue, the circus is going to have to roll up its tent and withdraw from the competition" thinks absolutely nobody in response to this click bait question.

Excellent piece. NB. Faye Knox scored against Llandudno in the Genero Adran Trophy, not in the Welsh Cup ... the first round proper of the Welsh Cup is this coming Sunday.

Shhh, don't tell anybody, but I'm awake. See, it's got an "a" in front, hiding the "w", and the "o" pretends that it's another "a". It's like wearing camo during office hours ... totally invisible. #KITM @kagrox.bsky.social

This is a really interesting article about a horrifying distortion of sign language happening in the UK, and which its creators are now trying to export to other countries and their sign languages Learn actual sign languages from Deaf people, not from hearing people making their own weird versions!

i find it so off-putting when you watch journalists interviewing politicians and you can tell they’re friendly, all in a big club that doesn’t serve the public’s interests. access journalism is the opposite of accountability journalism.

Life under the new DOJ/K: JUDGE: So, I’m looking at your grand jury transcript, and I’m not seeing the part where they agreed to indict the defendant. What happened to that part? PROSECUTOR: Oh, yeah. We didn’t do that part this time, Your Honor.

This is the first story I ever did that got more than a million views

So it turns out the mendacity is actually exceeded by the incompetence. Good to know.

#KITM @kagrox.bsky.social "The laws of Thermodynamics means Energy is intrinsically valuable! And AI uses energy! Checkmate!" "And so you are saying that AI slop is valuable because it *consumed* instrinsically valuable energy to produce it?"

You're not imagining it: NYC's Citi Bike system costs more to ride than any other major bike-share system in the United States, Canada or Europe — despite astronomical geographic and ridership growth raking in more and more money for Lyft, which operates the program.

Republicans always pretend they're just responding to mean old Democrats. Secure in playing the victim, they attack wantonly, without fear of reprisal beyond scattered attacks they can then use as evidence of how mean Democrats are. So, when Democrats finally DO hit back hard... oh lordy!

Q: "What do you think of Western Civilization?" Gandhi: "It would be a good idea."

Like every time you think, we’re selling F-35s to the bone saw guy, you gotta remember we’re also selling F-35s to the 9/11 guys. Same guys.

"Microsoft warns that Windows 11's agentic AI could install malware on your PC: 'Only enable this feature if you understand the security implications.'" bro what-- what are we doing here, exactly, how can you--anyone be okay with this?

"in 2030, Trump won't be around" was in part a note to the Senators next up in 2030 that voting no could be shooting themselves in the foot, and then once they all let their colleagues they were voting their self-interest, any inclination to be on the losing side of the Senate vote evaporated.

When my hometown of Sumter, SC is mentioned, I need to set the record straight. 1. That plant was initiated under Biden, not Trump. 2. It's tied to EVs, which Trump calls a hoax. 3. Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will kill thousands of EV jobs. Facts matter.
