Tesla’s Robotaxi is crashing roughly once every 40,000 miles so far in Austin, and that's with a human safety supervisor in vehicle. For comparison, the average human driver in the US crashes about once every 500,000 miles. electrek.co/2025/12/15/t...

BREAKING: The U.S. Coast Guard has quietly enacted a policy downgrading swastikas and nooses from hate symbols to “potentially divisive.” The manual is now in effect, despite public outrage and warnings after the draft was revealed last month. (Washington Post)

So I apologize for this in advance. I just had the realization that we'll soon be closer to 2030 than 2020...

I.... I had to double check that this was real. It is. Trump is basically threatening folks for speaking ill of him, while simultaneously confirming it was one of his cult members that did it. We live in dark times

Wait a minute. Rhode Island isn't an island? How have I never realized this? The East Coast has no idea how strange their geography seems, compared to the West.

It's so cold in the south that I'm missing the long dark of the PNW. Fuck, this, shit

Why are we fucking with Venezuela? It's so frustrating. We're not helping anyone here, just causing death and risking more

AI is a blight on our society, and I can't wait for its collapse, despite the financial crisis it's going to trigger

If you need a smile today. I know I do.

anyone who has seen the opening scene in Gangs of New York knows this is an idea that will get people killed. But you gotta be neutral when you report on it, like a good little sociopath, right?

The unarmed man who ran towards the shooter, and grabbed his rifle was a Lebanese Muslim and an immigrant to Australia. As Muslims are so often demonized, worth mentioning that it was a Muslim who rushed to save Jewish lives on Bondi Beach.

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Yo if you use instacart, listen up. The app has been using price fixing, charging different customers different amounts for the same groceries. They're inflating your prices when they know you'll pay more, and offering fake sales Predatory corpo bullshit www.consumerreports.org/money/questi...

Jfc. These gdamn goons

Russia was removed from Eurovision in 2022 over its invasion of Ukraine, but Israel is still allowed to compete despite being an apartheid state committing a genocide in Gaza. Good on Spain, Ireland, and the Netherlands. I’m sure they won’t be the last to announce a boycott.

It's crazy how US mainstream media has just given up. They'll cover the Venezuelan boat strikes and print Trump's lies. But I bet they'll barely make a peep about Trump pardoning this dude who was in jail for 45 years for smuggling cocaine to the US. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The fact they're fighting unionization so hard should tell you how important unions are for workers

Trump fighting with his architect about wanting to build a ballroom bigger than the actual White House feels very on brand wapo.st/4rqrqA2

The fact that anyone thinks this fool cares about drugs is just frustrating proof that folks don't read. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Steve Witkoff helped Russia derail Ukraine’s access to Tomahawk missiles. He tipped off the Kremlin about Zelensky’s U.S. visit, giving Moscow time to arrange a call that convinced Trump to block the deal. Witkoff actively works against Ukraine’s defense, in coordination with Putin’s regime.

Oh good. Government's paying bounty hunters to do racist "policing". What could go wrong

I know, you're all shocked. Still, important to know the facts

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

Holocaust Survivor: “I don’t talk with anyone who denies [Gaza’s genocide.]” Stephen Kapos, a pro-Palestine activist & Holocaust survivor, sits down w/ Mehdi for a wide-ranging interview on Gaza, Israel, the rise of fascism, & his own story of surviving the Holocaust. 🔗: zeteo.com/p/holocaust-...

1. In Tennessee, public libraries have closed for up to a week to facilitate a Trump-inspired book purge. Tennessee Secretary of State Tre Hargett (R) has ordered most of the state's public librarians to remove children's books with LGBTQ characters or themes.

RIP Jimmy Cliff Know what I'm listening to when I get off work tonight. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Baristas are locking arms in front of lines of trucks. This distribution center is Starbucks’ largest on the East Coast, which is why we’re showing up to send a message. We're ready to continue escalating our ULP strike until Starbucks does the right thing. #NoContractNoCoffee

Just giving away taxpayer money, cause fuck it

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

I'm pretty convinced that the gov shutdown ended because rich people were getting pissed about their flights getting fucked up. That was the straw that broke the corporate Democrats back

Holy shit. South Park is really going for it tonight

They know that American leadership can't be trusted. Smh

Fuck Chuck Schumer. He's gotta go

Fucking yikes. The BBC fired their general director and their news CEO because a documentary about January 6th made Trump mad. Throw another legacy media on the bonfire. Even international media is bowing to the dictator and destroying their credibility. Smfh

The soccer gods are cruel

Can you imagine taking the time to sit in court because someone threw a sandwich at your ballistic vest?

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter. He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

I am not a baseball guy, far from it in fact. But gdamn this is a hell of a world series

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

sad state of America

I will try not to make all my posts about shit that makes you angry/alarmed. 🙏 Have a lovely dog.

That’s uhh insane.

Have you ever had a temporary crown put in your mouth, waited for the permanent one from the lab, then gotten laid off in the week in the middle so you have to cancel the final dental work, then have the temp crown fall off so it feels like everything you eat stabs you in the brain?

The obscenely rich are especially vulnerable to llms because llms sound like *literally every single interaction* they have had with their entourage of sycophants for decades, and they also have not ever had to actually learn or think in that same span of time.

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Let's not mince words, we all know what this shit is about. These fools worship at the alter of slavery and they want us all to know it. www.npr.org/2025/10/27/n...

Gdamnit. I know it's close, but no Xmas ads until after Halloween. That's the rule advertisers.

And here is our story on this, from Harold Meyerson, who describes it as surgically designed to rebut any opposition, while providing just a start at rebalancing the horrific wealth inequality that has caused so many of our recent challenges. prospect.org/2025/10/23/u...
