"Among young American men, the strongest predictor of support for the tradwife lifestyle was not gallantry but hostility towards women" Apparently this is not what researchers "expected". Which makes one wonder: had these researchers thought about it for 30 seconds? www.thetimes.com/life-style/s...

The Iran War has strengthened Iran’s political position within the region AND created a major new revenue stream for the regime. So. Much. Wining.

You can see pretty clearly when the President decided to reassure a worried nation.

"As a meme by pro-Ukraine online activists put it more succinctly: Zelensky may not 'have any cards,' as Trump infamously told him last year—but maybe he’s playing chess." @cathyyoung63.bsky.social on Zelensky's big last two weeks: lnk.thebulwark.com/3NAjeOM

"There is no strength here, no virtue or authority. There is only the fragile, preening ego of the abuser." Couldn't have said it better myself.

Why is Fordam pushing Aquinas Natural Law as a founding US principle? Crazy how much this right wing MAGA Catholic propaganda is invading the public square. US democracy is the antithesis of Catholic natural law, which opposes separation of church and state. news.law.fordham.edu/blog/2026/04...

They have killed at least 28 people in the field and 52 in custody since Trump retook the White House. These are minimum numbers.

Poland PM: 🇵🇱

Many More Should Have Also Been Prosecuted….

Astronaut Victor Glover, pilot of the #ArtemisII, and his family. They must be so friggin proud.. www.nasa.gov/learning-res...

What standard israeli practice of killing the negotiator, so that you can cry about having no one to talk to

FOR HE IS RISEN!

"Citizen science helps reveal how urban land management shapes butterfly communities": Paper led by Andrea Büermann accepted and available here: doi.org/10.1016/j.ba... Using data from 'VielFalterGarten' project (Leipzig, DE) = 15-min observations, we show that improved urban green sites works!

After all, that, they still got the clock wrong #Artemis

That’s one hell of a cover…..

When was the last time a purge of the officer corps led to improvements on the battlefield?

It is crazy how few people know this: Russia now occupies less Ukrainian land than it did one month into the full-scale invasion four years ago

Never mind that I died inside when I heard Gorsuch say in Trump v Barbara arguments that there weren't any immigration laws in the 1860s. Taps new book 👇 in which I document the over a century of first colonial then state-level international and domestic migration laws before federalization.

“Metaphysics, a concept made famous by the Hamburglar from McDonalds…”

Alito is arguing that foreign impressment somehow undermines our sovereignty and the Constitution. The Founding generation would throw rotten food at him in the streets for such a statement.

JD Vance using a photo of a Methodist church on the cover of his book about CATHOLICISM is some real Veep-level shit.

NEWS: Judge Amit Mehta rules Trump is NOT immune for key Jan. 6 conduct—including his Ellipse rally speech, outreach to officials, and related actions—finding they can be treated as campaign activity, not presidential duties. 1/

New story out this morning from the Washington Examiner saying that it's an open secret inside the Border Patrol that the current Border Patrol Chief has bragged for decades about going to Thailand and Colombia to sleep with a bunch of sex workers. www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/investi...

Man, we really have to stop confusing the stock market, which is part of the economy and has an affect on a lot of people including through your 401k, with The Economy. This goes more than double for day traders, who are all perverts.

Again: an intimidation tactic

The stupidity is so thick, it's hard to comprehend: "The U.S. president […] went on to call NATO a "paper tiger" and said Russian President Vladimir Putin shares that opinion."

Israel is so emboldened that it’s making its calls for ethnic cleansing in Lebanon VERY specific. Gift link:

"Lenders who originated data center loans—including the private credit facilities described in Section A—have begun pooling those loans and selling tranches to asset managers and pension funds, spreading risk well beyond the original lending institutions." www.quinnemanuel.com/the-firm/pub...

❗️Russia possibly lost an An-26 transport aircraft over Crimea with the crew reported dead, alongside the confirmed loss of a Su-34 fighter jet. Verification of the An-26 incident remains pending. #Russia

ive been thinking about this post for two whole weeks

What a surprise..... www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

I, too, think it's absurd to portray israel as dominated by genocidal maniacs. There are also collaborators and nihilists.

If you say you had this on your bingo card, you're lying www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

seems pretty clear that MAGA plans to disrupt the midterms by sending ICE agents to demand everybody waiting in voting lines provide proof of citizenship blue states can legally ban this, but Dems have passed such a ban only in one state (New Mexico) so far www.laborpolitics.com/p/a-plan-to-...

If any other president had pardoned - pardoned! - a man like this, they would have probably been impeached by now. Trump gets away with this kind of gross shit, day after day: www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

When billionaires own Housing it can cost whatever they feel like. When billionaires own Energy it can cost whatever they feel like. When billionaires own Healthcare, Banking, Public Transport... Do you see the problem?

Pretty compelling essay from Daniel Biss in The Nation, in which he reiterates his support for -The Block The Bombs Act (strongest arms embargo on Israel legislation ever unveiled in Congress). -Unilateral recognition of the State of Palestine. -Naming and shaming AIPAC intervention in elections.

Looks like poor Chad is going through some things. Gubernatorial candidate and Riverside Co Sheriff Chad Bianco suspends election fraud probe as legal challenges mount. May the white supremacist and Oath Keeper’s member reap what he sows. www.latimes.com/california/s...

AP article fails to note is that, according to academics who study Catholic Nationalism 1) Post Liberal is a rebranding of Catholic Integralism 2) Catholic Integralism is historically is closely linked to fascism. Franco Spain, for example. apnews.com/article/jd-v... apnews.com/article/jd-v...

Kagan: "Consider a hypothetical law that is the mirror image of Colorado's. Instead of barring talk therapy designed to change a minor’s sexual orientation/gender identity, this law bars therapy affirming those things." Adds when state suppresses one side, "constitutional issue is straightforward"

Can't overstate the impact that's coming down the pipeline to truckers, farmers, logistics, and beyond- the U.S. economy runs on diesel with several states setting new all-time highs for diesel, while others are seeing largest monthly increases of all time: AZ +67% NV +58% NC +58% TN +56% LA +56%

Reminder: both Joni Ernst and Thom Tillis could have blocked the Hegseth nomination. At the time, both were considering running again and were threatened with being primaried. Now they are retiring. After Ernst caved, Tillis still could have prevented this. www.commondreams.org/opinion/thom...
