Media outlets will probably never stop presenting the deadly impacts of fossil fuels as delightful fun:

It's nothing everyone doesn't already know, but ICE/CBP guys know they can do whatever they want. They're the absolute dregs of the Violence Worker Community, not trained for anything like what they're doing, out of their depth, all that. But it starts with them knowing they won't face consequences.

If you see it and it gives you intrusive thoughts play some Tetris

Every second the murderer is not arrested is another second for feds to hide him in a place that would create a jurisdictional fight. He's on video killing a person. You have to arrest this guy an hour ago, but you might still have time now.

It appears ICE murdered someone in cold blood today and their plan is — per usual — to create a fog of lies so the killer does not face justice. We simply can't let that happen. The shooter has to be arrested and so does Bovino. They can't just kill people on the street.

Turn off video auto-play in your settings, fam. You do not have a duty to view violent content, please don’t traumatise yourself.

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

Very glad that kind, clever folks like Liz (and Juniper!) are talking about this stuff. It's a complicated subject, especially for me, but open conversation helps to make private conversations easier when you have to have them

Wtf … this headline is a disgrace 😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤🍻😤 #auspol

And you know that’s a bad thing right? …you know that’s a bad thing right????

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

what u have to understand is that working on my novel, answering dms, and answering emails all cost 1 spell slot but posting? Posting is a cantrip

DDDDD

Robot fall down, Mr Bond

A touching tribute to Mike F

i cannot tell you how often i think back to MASH when writing. that ability to walk the line between humor and the darkest of humanity, yet never truly cross over into making light of it OR hopelessness--even though it toys with those things, too--is the line i strive for

more generations need to discover M*A*S*H

liberals need to think long and hard about what these guys consider communism before they start thinking they're safe

How do right wingers love killing in the name? Because it’s a fucking banger.

He just does that!

my hot take is that I don't think it's this website specifically that's toxic. the Circumstances are toxic and nobody really knows what to do about it so they come online and scream. and if I may offer an alternative: actually going outside and screaming feels better.

This is why I always check the DVD racks in op shops! I knew Dress To Kill and Glorious verbatim back in the day, and no one has had a more obvious impact on the way I speak than Suzie 💖

i think american life would improve significantly and quickly if society was more encouraging of people to have Hobbies. the most perfect and serene state of mind that exists is when one is Doing one's Little Things

[Reactivating so I can access my DMs, but I'm still going to be posting/checking this less for a couple days] Please just be normal and let it go. All good?

Really and truly, how is this not @thebeaverton.com??? www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/arti...

There we go. That there’s a headline.

thank you for including me in this piece. lots of cool folks here. www.gamesindustry.biz/a-decade-on-...

Ahead of Day 3 of the "pink test" In 2022-23 the McGrath foundation spent about $8.8m on “foundation-funded breast care nurses”, but more than $9.1m on fundraising and marketing, and a further $2.2m on administration." www.thenewdaily.com.au/opinion/2024...

Inner North Melbourne people: two of Yarra Library's branches have extended opening hours on Thursday and Friday so that you can hide away from the heatwave.

The story of US intervention is a story of suffering, misery and chaos. How many more catastrophic failures will it take before we learn the lesson? My piece for @tribunemagazine.bsky.social on the illegal invasion of Venezuela. tribunemag.co.uk/2026/01/star...

Wish I could internalize this

My essay is about Tarantino, yes, but it's also about the ugliness of the "Face of Jewish Vengeance" since WW2: flaminghydra.com/inglourious-...

Several parts of Australia are likely to face the worst heatwaves since the 2019/2020 bushfires. Volunteers and underpaid frontline workers will step up to help communities. Meanwhile, in just one year, the Australian government gave $14.9 billion in subsidies to fossil fuel producers and users.

the annoying little jokes will continue until morale improves, and then keep going after that too

If you want to know who took all of your money, it's the people with all of the money. Famously, we know that's people working in child care.

"eSafety has been active in cracking down on non-consensual sexual imagery generators... Despite this, Musk’s Grok has not faced any consequences in Australia despite being far more prominent than any other nudify application and the well-publicised nature of its sexual image generation features."

I’m still not sure which Knives Out film I like the most, but I think I feel pretty confident in saying the Louise phone call from Wake Up Dead Man is my favorite scene in the whole trilogy

"But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. [...]" "...There’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for."

One guy tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up a plane with a bomb in his sneakers, and everybody had to take off their shoes at the airport for the next 20 years. Chatbots have a collective body count equal to Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, and they're trying to put them in schools.

I actually only listen to podcasts at quarter speed I like it when they take 7 hours and sound like a drone metal song

Video games, rap music, rock and roll, and horror movies have been demonized by the media for YEARS. But ChatGPT gives a how to guide on making CSAM and committing suicide and it’s crickets

The biggest realisation for most people who transition after the age of 30 is not that they are trans but rather that love can be unconditional.

Heatwaves are hitting many Australian regions this week, with multiple days 35ºC (95ºF) to 45ºC+ (113ºF+)🥵 There’s ~250 heat related deaths in Australia annually, more than have died in bushfires in last 10 years combined. Only time it’s ok to CHEAT😉 is during Heatwaves …1/

how do u repair the social fabric how do you get people to start trusting each other again
