Nesta pandemia vou ser negacionista. Não quero saber. Parece ser mais divertido e estou cansado de me preocupar.

In both foreign policy and economic policy, the core belief of Trumpism is that there is some button one can press to instantly and easily solve any problem, and every political leader this country has ever had was simply too cowardly to press it. That’s it.

Pacheco Pereira cometeu um erro de base: achou que o Ventura ia ficar muito envergonhado por ser apanhado a relativizar a ditadura e a colonização. Não fica.

Oh no, anything but more free time

Uma NATO europeia com um posto avançado na América do Norte, o Canadá ✌️

O meu novo ódio de estimação no Instagram é aquela conta que faz vídeos de animação sobre grandes industriais portugueses que começaram do nada, apenas com uns milhões no bolso e a empresa da família.

The Department of This Operation.

Ja tentaram denunciar conteudos flagrantemente ilegais ou extremistas nas redes da Meta para receberem uma mensagem automatica a dizer que nao viram problema nenhum? Fossem amigos do Zuck como o Musk...

Still so heartbreaking to think that potentially millions of people were sentenced to death just to "own the libs". The end of USAID is a crime against humanity youtu.be/tU8S13xYJNM?...

Gorillaz in peak form and a disastrous war in the Middle East. I feel like I'm back in high school.

Epá, digam aos EUA que o Rafa é o novo líder supremo do Irão

New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who died in the cold streets of Buffalo days after Border Patrol dumped him without coordinating with his family or lawyers.

They had us in the first half, not gonna lie

nyt website currently resembles one of those mock covers people made before 2016 election: economy floundering, war in the middle east, scandal-plagued cabinet sec, brazen corruption....

O efeito DOGE: correr com funcionários com décadas de know-how e entregar a administração federal aos bichos

Ainda sobre o "Dubai é seguríssimo", como notou @dasilvajums.bsky.social, leiam o que a @deutschewelle.dw.com escreve sobre o assunto. É uma campanha concertada para proteger uma marca. Quem der voz aos influencers nos media tem de saber isso www.dw.com/en/iran-stri...

Tuga na SIC Notícias diz que está mais segura no Dubai "do que em qualquer sítio na Europa". Pois claro, que se vive muito bem num estado autoritário assente em mão-de-obra quase escrava. Desde que não sejas o escravo.

💥 No president in the modern era has ordered more military strikes against as many different countries as Donald Trump. He's attacked 7 nations, three of which had never been targeted by U.S. military strikes. He authorized more individual air strikes in 2025 than Biden did in four years.

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

NH state house passes "CHARLIE Act," which bans teaching, I kid you not, "critical consciousness" & "prohibited world-views," such as that queer people exist, or that slavery involved race, or, implicitly, that the Nazis murdered Jews based on identity. newhampshirebulletin.com/2026/02/19/h...

The United States “may be required to refund billions of dollars to importers who paid” the tariffs, he wrote, “even though some importers may have already passed on costs to consumers or others.”

Turns out there’s an economic cost to everyone hating us.

JD Vance inadvertently endorsing birthright citizenship and/or US citizenship for anyone growing up in the US

We want to deport millions so Americans' wages can go up, but also we want to fire 2/3 of the federal workforce, obliterate the intl aid, higher ed, and green energy sectors, and also we want to AI everything so corporations don't need workers anymore, and also we want to tariff the s*** out of-

Estes novos ícones da meteorologia da RTP são um desastre. Aquilo é chuva/aguaceiros, mas num ecrã pequeno ou à distância, parece tudo igual: uma nuvem.

Nesses 6 anos, o grande projecto de reorganização das direitas do Morgado e companhia produziu um Presidente socialista e impediu duas vezes uma maioria da AD. E ontem ficou claríssimo que há um tecto eleitoral para a gritaria, e que há uma maioria que a rejeita. Os moderados que tomem notas.

With >85% of votes in, Portugal decisively rejects far-right candidate André Ventura. Center-left candidate António José Seguro is the President-elect.

crickets from the free speech crowd, of course

A Coreia do Norte, que tem um PIB menor que o moçambicano, consegue desenvolver armas nucleares e mísseis balísticos. Como? Alocando praticamente toda a economia à produção militar e deixando a população ciclicamente vulnerável à fome. É bizarro ver uma economia capitalista fazer algo parecido.

journalists are workers who deserve to be paid fairly for our labor and I think that far too few consumers of media recognize or even care about this fact

INBOX: Washington Post Ukraine Correspondent Lizzie Johnson announces that she has been laid off in the middle of a below-freezing war zone without power, heat, or running water.

So this is it? Not Columbine, not Sandy Hook, not Uvalde? This?

years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

A new video contradicts the Trump administration's account of the Minneapolis shooting

i suppose it makes sense but it is completely demoralizing that we live in a moment where there is more video/photographic evidence (often from multiple angles) than ever before and also a durable system in place for propagandists to gaslight or convince others into not believing their eyes

Escrever. Apagar. Respirar fundo.

Short of getting caught orchestrating a coup or assassination, this is absolutely the core case of what you expel an ambassador for.

O plano de Trump para o mundo deve ser levado a sério (e um recado final para consumo interno) www.publico.pt/2026/01/21/n...

American political scholars don't even have models for this shit. This corruption is so brazen and transparently transactional for self-enrichment, it's not been seen in US politics in 100 years. At this scale, it's never been seen.

"Amazing moment on French TV. A French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy basically trying to intimidate her during Le Pen's trial for embezzlement - something they've done to other judges around the world My English sub-titles 👇" @AlexTaylorNews no twitter

Mendes e Montenegro não indicam voto na segunda volta

A verdadeira "teoria da grande substituição" continua a ser a do centro-direita pela direita radical. O centro-direita continua a achar que está tudo bem na sua estratégia de aproximação à direita radical e arrisca-se, entretanto, a ver um PR de uma esquerda que estava na fossa.

🔴 Trump threatens to tariff Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland to force the surrender of Greenland

We should be forever grateful that Bill Watterson wisely decided to become a hermit and not ruin Calvin & Hobbes.
