What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

It is also important to keep in mind that one of the first immigration actions Trump & Miller took was stranding the next batch of these Afghan refugees who were approved & waiting to come here. Essentially condemning them to persecution & possible torture or death.

I can’t believe people in the room don’t push back. It doesn’t matter if he’s the president, part of holding him accountable is standing up to his bullying— especially if he’s doing it right in front of your face

I'm okay with a Trump Monument in DC, but it has to be a two-inch tall obelisk at the bottom of one of the tanks of the Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant.

They line up perfectly.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

This is true. It is the best email I got this year.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

sister told me to set up a storygraph account

De quel droit, sur quelle base juridique, avec quelle autorité ? On a tellement normalisé le piétinement du droit international et l’impunité génocidaire d’Israël, que ça passera crème, comme c’est l’habitude quand il s’agit de la Palestine.

This is one of those things that rarely gets talked about that has had a massive effect. As fields like journalism, art, and academia were collapsed and living expenses skyrocketed they came to skew increasingly toward people whose families could afford to supplement their income.

grease floats. when it flows in sewage and into our plants, it thickens as temps fall, separating in our settling tanks. the churning water forms grease globs that build like snowballs, and operators remove them so they don’t clog the process. listen. don’t pour grease down your drains.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

Someone at a Russell Group university was moved to almost-poetry by their Faculty Meeting… Can anyone do better?

My I Am Not Enron T shirt is raising a lot of questions about whether I am Enron

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.

I really don’t think we can overstate the harm that the tech ethos of move fast and break things (followed by the unsaid “and then just move on”) has done beyond tech. Government, ngos, universities, public schools that have invited the folks who think like this in keep ending up gutted

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

The outbreak in Ethiopia is #Marburg virus, the first such outbreak for this country. 9 cases so far, including some health workers. x.com/drtedros/sta...

Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

This is obvious and axiomatic. Yet why doesn’t everyone recognize and acknowledge it??

Aye

Everything in Trump's russian plan —undoubtedly also a corruption pact—is disgraceful, rotten, and unacceptable. But I would like European leaders to show much more indignation about one thing in particular: it absolves the russians of their crimes—a full betrayal of Nuremberg's legacy.

I mention in the piece above how power is now flowing away from Trump and you can see it today with many GOP politicians feeling brave enough to criticise his Russia-friendly deal over Ukraine.

They are literally firing all the judges they think might grant relief. They just fired a friend of mine a couple hours ago. They have no shame. The bastards want an assembly line for deportations and nothing more; rubber-stamping bootlickers who’ll yes’sir at every new diktat to deny.

Could have happened

We know lots of you have been asking 3M for a Black Aura - like mask for consumer use. Today we're excited to launch a new product to fill that hole in the market! Introducing the headband version of BreatheTeq KN95. Available in black and white.

I gotta start doing my series of “Anarchist Dominatrix/ Policy Researcher/ Psychotherapist Explains How Power Works” clips because I fear this is too confusing for too many of you when it should be pretty obvious that— God forgive me— he dommed Trump.

Distracted fascist

Maybe it's just me, but personally I see nothing mysterious in the existence of unfinished projects.

So. Many. Bots. I want to be able to kick them off my followers list, not just block them. @safety.bsky.app

my jaw is on the floor and yet im completely unsurprised. trump’s only political conviction is that he loves a handsome winner

This cartoon literally summarizes my article from the other day. I should learn to draw

This made me laugh out loud.

Niedlich, im TV, Bericht einer 100-jährigen fitten Turnerin, die das Geheimnis ihrer Gesundheit verrät. Das suggeriert, du bist für deine Gesundheit ausschließlich selbst verantwortlich. Realität 2025, du bist maßgeblich von der "Gnade" deiner Umwelt abhängig, ob und wie gesund du bleibst.

I will move us off grid and into the wilderness before I let my child within a mile of a Roblox login screen.

A bunch of paleontologists I talked to recently have said the same thing, they're getting a bunch of people emailing them after asking ChatGPT whether some rock they found is a dinosaur egg and being told Yes by the AI. Then they get angry when they're a told no by an expert.

Some notable things in what's being called the "Trump peace plan" but which could not have been more clearly written in Moscow if it came with a 2 for 1 deal on tickets to the Bolshoi Ballet. 🧵

I've spent the last decade writing about autism and saying politicians should stop talking about vaccines. When my book came out, it felt like politics was moving there. But I feel like my life's work has been completely erased by RFK Jr., Trump and Bill Cassidy. I feel completely disoriented.

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

it sure seems like quite a coincidence that everything bad ever published about elon musk is a documented fabrication by the rootless cosmopolitans who run the entire media as a monolith, but it says so right there in the grokipedia article so it must be true

A president who speaks of death for dissent isn’t defending a nation, he’s claiming a throne. He names enemies so others will swing the sword. Power that fears questions always reaches for blood. Don’t give him the submission he’s seeking. Stand when he demands you kneel. #AuthoritarianAlert
