After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Silver alert?

Make no mistake: As Trump eyes more cuts to NASA’s science mission, our rivals are eager to race ahead — not just in space exploration, but in science and innovation across the board.   Once again, this isn’t America First. It’s America in Retreat.

I try not to post about Xitter--I'm not on there anymore, I hate even thinking about it--but the latest Grok debacle has me mad all over again at how poor a job sports media has done abandoning that cesspool. Teams, reporters, etc.; what are they even getting out of propping up a literal hate forum?

It is really odd that conspiracy theorists never latch on to the one weather modification conspiracy that is actually real.

In the first half of 2025, Baltimore had the fewest homicides ever recorded – 62% decrease compared to this time three years ago. But we can’t rest. In every community, we must continue to confront violence and do all we can to keep Marylanders safe.

TIRED: “learn to code!” WIRED:

Today marks seven years since we lost Gerald Fischman, Rob Hiaasen, John McNamara, Rebecca Smith, and Wendi Winters to a senseless, horrific act of gun violence at the Capital Gazette. We will never forget them — and we can never stop fighting for a world without these terrible tragedies.

This is fascism. And it's way more dangerous than bad economic policy. If you're right of center and don't understand this—or still play whataboutism to undercut Democrats—I assume you are either not paying attention or secretly want fascism.

The Minnesota assassinations, the attempted arson at Governor Shapiro's home, and the violent arrest of Senator Padilla are all straight out of the Jim Crow terrorism playbook. Same goes with cops aiming for journalists covering the ICE protests. None of these are new tactics, just a new iteration.

> New Jersey Sen. Andy Kim called the construction "essentially just dry wall with some mesh inside and that led to an exterior wall. It shows just how shoddy how construction was here." Did they hire the Groverhaus guy to build the detention center or something?

yes, I agree that ICE was wrong to take to the street kidnapping immigrants. They should find a non-violent way to express their hatred of foreigners

Moldbug coming out of his hovel to talk to an audience more cognitively active than crackhead oligarchs has been a disaster for him. People used to think he was some dark triad nazi supergenius and it turns out his brain activity scan has the curves of a runway model

the only time you should say you're "on a mission from God" is if you're digging wells in Haiti or you're getting the band back together to pay off your orphanage's tax bill

One of umpteen disturbing dynamics w/ how many people discuss 🇮🇱🇵🇸 is deriving almost erotic delight from portraying one society as uniquely evil. When I post about Israelis or Palestinians doing good, people often reply that they’re freaks in their societies. It’s unhelpful & gross. 🧵

yeah we’ve heard the same Rogan Bro bigotry from so many people at this point at least when Brady was in the news for being a quack it was for innovative garbage like “drinking water prevents sunburn” Rodgers is a guy we all encounter on social media 473 times a day

It is very funny that NYT let noted trade columnist Paul Krugman walk like six months ago or whatever because he wanted to produce too much trade content for their taste

chat, is there anything in christianity about forgiving the people who killed your son

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

This was actually a thing in the 17th and 18th century. Lots of writers looked down on Shakespeare's dialogue because they thought it was too middle-class for their taste. So they'd put on re-written and abridged versions of his plays with flowery Restoration-era verse

I was privileged to know Gene Hackman because he played tennis with another Gene—Gene Wilder. And that Gene told him about a little role called The Blind Hermit in our movie YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN…

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

The de-facto president of the united states made *several* hitler salutes today. If that's the other party stands for, fuck bipartisanship

Retweet if he’s right! 💙💙👏👏
