#Covid shot linked to a lower risk of death from any cause. Advantage held even after removing coronavirus-related deaths from data. Newly published French study on 28M adults under age 60, showed the mRNA vax reduced incidence of all-cause mortality after 1st dose. New data based on 2021 shots👇

The scars of slavery really are scarred into the very face of America isn't it How the fuck did I not know this!

lil' buddy had a big night here in the greater richmond area

How have we gone this long without factoring housing and rent into minimum wage?!

www.yesigiveafig.com/i/179492574/... The US poverty line is calculated as 3 times the cost of a minimum food diet in 1963, adjusted for inflation. If you measured income inadequacy today the same way, the threshold for a family of 4 wouldn’t be $31,200. It would be between $130k and $150k.

Javier Sanchez Mendoza Jr. helped Sofi secure an H-2A visa, promising a job on a Georgia blueberry farm. When she arrived, she was not sent out to work in the fields like the others. She was forced to live at his house and sign a marriage license. By @maxblau.bsky.social

top notch mascottin'

Average folks kettled ICE

This can't become the new normal. It just can't.

Wanna know how bad the Arizona legislator's petition forgeries were? Here's the examples from the Austin Smith indictment. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24...

Ned Beatty's blistering "there are no nations" monologue from "Network" should be mandatory viewing for college students or to apply for a credit card, etc. (I'm joking, but yet I'm not…)

Despite knowing Clint Massie was abusing girls for years, church leaders never reported him to police. It felt like “a group of people who are not just trying to protect someone — but something,” the DA said. “They have enabled something awful here.” With @startribune.com

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

In other words, traffic deaths are a policy choice

Judge Ellis derides Greg Bovino as a serial fabulist who brazenly lied on the stand and seemingly considered it funny to perjure himself. cst.brightspotcdn.com/49/34/daecfb...

Ellis repeatedly accuses multiple CBP and ICE officials of lying (under oath) and says their "widespread misrepresentations call into question everything" they "say they are doing in their characterization of what is happening." She broadly discredits their testimony as objectively false.

Willingly scarring your body to own the libs. These people are straight up insane. This is Manson Family shit

SCOOP — A former staffer for Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), Natalie Green, 26, was charged today for falsely reporting she was attacked by 3 men who wrote "TRUMP WHORE" on her stomach bc of her job. It was staged by her + a friend. Van Drew isn't named in the complaint but I've confirmed w/ his office.

We got our decision in August. The AG said Abbott's office must release some emails with Musk. About a month later, we got nearly 1,400 pages of emails. I was stoked. Until I took a look at the records. They were almost completely redacted. www.kut.org/politics/202... #txlege #FOIA

After 404 Media's months-long reporting and pressure from lawmakers, the data broker owned by the U.S.’s major airlines will now shut down a program in which it sold access to hundreds of millions of flight records to the government and let agencies track peoples’ movements without a warrant.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures

My teenagers can’t get a ticket to the Running Man remake on their own, but sure, they’re consenting adults when it comes to sex. There’s not enough pepper spray in the world for these creeps

Good words about Chicago from @dansinker.com from his blog on Punk Planet. Rings so true to me. dansinker.com/posts/2025-0...

"I needed to see if she was really about to excuse pedophilia by bringing up the ages of the children. As a reminder, Republicans think 15-year-olds are too young to check out their own library books in school…" jesspiper.substack.com/p/excusing-a...

I went to college for criminology and I remember a professor shutting this shit down so fast when someone tried it by saying "Nope, there are only two types of people who ever need to care about this distinction: the people committing the crimes and the lawyers involved in those cases, THAT'S IT"

I say it over and over again: when you have that much money, you want to live where you want to live and you are simply not going to relocate because of marginal tax rates Alan Dershowitz will never leave Martha’s Vineyard and they won’t even sell him a pierogi

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

just a reminder this guy slashed the tires on his much younger female coworkers tires to trick her into getting in his car he was married at the time

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death. Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written." Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating. 🧪🧬🧫

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Added alt text. Between their legal issues, their lack of profits, and the psychic damage from seeing social channels flooded with GenAI misinformation, I firmly believe OpenAI is the weakest link here - their collapse isn't just guaranteed, it will completely upend US tech as we know it

I spoke to Mayors from around the world about the growing threat of AI and fake news and the need for stronger protections against disinformation and lies.

When you book a flight through major travel sites, a data broker owned by U.S. airlines will sell details about your flight—your name, credit card used, and where you’re flying to the government. We found out how to opt-out of ARC selling your travel data. A guide: www.404media.co/how-to-opt-o...

Take this for what it is; an acknowledgment by the White House that they are not focusing on people with criminal records.

Here's the June rule: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

Looking at the Federal Register this morning, DHS is moving up the effective date on a June rule that expanded its authority to charge people for certain criminal conduct around federal buildings. It was originally set to go into effect on January 1. It will now go into effect TOMORROW.

"It turns my stomach to see how we pollute the water—draw the drapes, please." John Fischetti, March 1969. The Cuyahoga River in Cleveland caught fire several months later. It had done so many times before. But, in 1969, the reaction to the river fire helped launch the modern environmental movement.

One night recently, I got a Signal message Would I be interested in seeing an internal Trump admin memo? I said yes (duh). Then, I couldn’t believe what I was looking at. The memo shows how the VA is making access to health coverage header for just one group: Male vets w/ breast cancer….
