Why... did i just acquire around 200 new followers overnight?

Remember when we used to call people like this babies? Let's bring that back.

New from 404 Media: a data hoarder created a searchable data of Epstein files. "This is a public service project. All documents are from public releases. This archive makes them more accessible and searchable." www.404media.co/data-hoarder...

Ok I'm thoroughly convinced there'll be a crash in the not too distant future.

Some exciting news: 404 Media just won a grant via Muckrock to investigate book bans and educational censorship in the U.S. The plan is to file hundreds of public records requests around the country and to report on and archive all the documents for public use: www.404media.co/help-us-inve...

"You have elected to take a job where the primary purpose is for you to eat shit and own the death of broadcast TV news, a thing that is going to die no matter what you do. Nice work!" Read more from @lopatto.bsky.social: www.theverge.com/business/793...

FIFA now totally embracing East Rutherford in their marketing.

RESULT: Adelita Grijalva is heading to Congress. The Democrat has won the #AZ07 special election very easily, and she will replace her father Raúl Grijalva. AP just called it. Among other things, Grijalva is expected to be the 218th person to sign the Epstein discharge position.

Many Catholic Churches I’ve been to have priests in their ministries that weren’t born in the States. I don’t think I’ve heard third-hand through any one my generation going into the clergy.

Zuck can’t quite shake leading a company that at its essence is built on surveillance.

Can’t wait to break Sinclair up. Corporate media consolidation doesn’t jibe with democracy. And although Sinclair isn’t a fan of democracy, most people are.

HUGE HUGE NEWS FROM EGYPT!! Egyptian President Sisi has issued a presidential pardon for activist and blogger Alaa Abdel Fattah.

Gutting Section 230 won't punish Mark Zuckerberg or Elon Musk. It will just kill Bluesky and Wikipedia

It’s becoming increasingly evident that this attempt to elevate his death as a rallying point is nothing more than vultures tearing at a dead body.

Did the bag have a dollar sign on it? My god

"Right now, Beijing is offering cheap, clean power, employment, trade and a route to prosperity. Washington is offering tariffs, policy chaos, White nationalist memes and South Korean workers in shackles after a raid on an EV battery factory." www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Fuck yeah, shadow government Dems are learning. Here, they seem to be adopting an approach to opposition that's common in parliamentary systems, whereby the opposition offers their own concrete alternatives to the incumbents

Ah well I he's got to listen now I'm sure

India and Pakistan were at war just 4 months ago

Incredible achievement that the one price that the Trump administration has brought down notably is "cocaine."

“I wasn’t sure what number you wanted me to go with.” — Zuck, 100% pathetically bitch-made by a man who said he should be thrown in jail for life, appeasing an administration who says his wife’s family isn’t American, loving how RFK is dismantling every public health advancement that CZI ever made.

the President, who is not running for election, still sends out fundraising emails on the daily. this guy does ads saying "we've reached the max we can spend, don't give us more money." remarkable stuff that I think resonates with people who yearn for change and justice

read this thread. absolutely chilling. forcibly inserting ICE ads into a podcast, and deliberately manipulating the mechanism through which creators have any control at all over which ads are included. this is horrible

This appears to be the Tatsunami Stable, home to the Yokozuna Hoshoryu. You can buy your own experience there for $120.

Academics once loved Twitter—but in the age of X they’ve abandoned it in droves. www.wired.com/story/bluesk...

Perhaps YOU are the one who sucks.

the thing everyone is going to have to accept is that the post-trump period, whenever it comes, will not and cannot be a project of national unity, it must be a project of partisan project of renewal, in the same way that reconstruction and the new deal were partisan projects of renewal.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand: $678M raised through those spam tactics $282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies. $11M to actual campaigns (1.6%) The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

Newsletter: In a media landscape dominated by algorithmic feeds that aim to manipulate and extract, sometimes the most radical thing you can do is choose to read what you want, when you want, without anyone watching over your shoulder. Here’s how to use RSS. www.citationneeded.news/curate-with-...

With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

Thousands of workers who provide legal services to low-income people are preparing for a possible strike by the end of this week — joining the more than 400 already on the picket line seeking better pay for themselves and more resources for their clients.

Trump in the way of Chelsea lifting the trophy. Cole Palmer: What’s he doing? Reece James(to Trump): Are you gonna leave?

BREAKING: The City of Detroit is suing a cryptocurrency-based real estate company RealT for failing to maintain hundreds of rental properties across the city, following investigations by @outliermedia.org. outliermedia.org/realt-lawsui...

lol this dude is still sooooo mad that Mamdani easily beat his brother

as I said on @leftanchor.bsky.social one thing Zohran showed is that the pivot to pocketbook issues (affordability!) is not in itself bad, in fact it was the core to how he won the election the question is, do you have the skill, the personal magnetism, the established bonafides to pull it off

Can’t stop watching Portnoy getting CLOCKED by a slice of pizza. It’s incredible.

This is super frustratingly wrong @rokhanna.bsky.social. Censorship is not "private bookstore choosing not to carry a book" (something it does every day). I have written a book, and no book store carries it. That's not censorship. It's the book store making its own decisions about what to carry.

Zohran: Imagine living in a city where you can afford your rent, your groceries and even a meal at a restaurant now and then without much stress Eric Adams: Imagine a platypus so powerful that it could destroy the city. We need more cops

Socialism, tonight, defeated barbarism. After the two-decade midnight of 9/11, dawn is breaking.

deeply weird to be in the healthiest and most stable period of your life thus far precisely as the wider world seems to be falling apart

“Tanks passing a small crowd of spectators near the Washington monument.” Absolutely bodied by the grey lady.

I'm guessing this won't lead to any calls for any GOP politicians to be expelled from Congress, unlike when Ilhan Omar is somehow blamed when anyone protests the Gaza genocide. This will mysteriously not require military occupation of Minnesota, unlike LA if someone smashes a window.

Reports of an uprising inside Delaney Hall immigration detention center in Newark NJ. I was here with people trying to visit family when we all started choking due to tear gas used inside.

Genetic material shed by tumors can be detected in the bloodstream three years before cancer diagnosis, according to a study led by investigators at Johns Hopkins University. That study was made possible with federal funding. Now, many studies like this are canceled. hub.jhu.edu/2025/06/04/...
