See? THIS is why any protest should be blaring copyrighted music.

This is what you do to Nazis. The kids are all right. www.seattletimes.com/education-la...

Sure wish we had a better solution for collapsing beachouses than to let them collapse.

NEW: By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to cancel Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelan migrants. KBJ, dissenting, says she "cannot abide our repeated, gratuitous, and harmful interference" while "lives hang in the balance." www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

People with prior COVID-19 infection had an overall significantly higher risk of new-onset all-cause dementia and vascular dementia.

Senator Murphy also lays out a clear set of codified demands that Dems can stand for. Among them: *no more using budget to punish enemies *no more using FCC to censor critics *restrictions on ICE lawlessness in interior *clear ban on troops in cities 3/ newrepublic.com/article/2013...

At the ICE protest this morning there were: -3 helicopters -3 drones -snipers on the roof -cement blockades -fully armed agents -boarded up ICE facility -fences blocking access -streets shut down -masked ICE fascists -law enforcement everywhere And 4X as many peaceful protestors as last week.❤️ 2/2

I asked Chris Murphy if he privately talks to Dem colleagues about why they don't sound the alarm loudly. His answers were depressing. Dems tell him they don't want to be "alarmist" or that "democracy" didn't work in 2024, so they want to stick to health care. 5/ newrepublic.com/article/2013...

"Embedding love for Israel in American culture" is mighty damn Orwellian. Hell, I don't even want any "embedding love for AMERICA" in American culture. I cannot stand people telling others how to think. This is America, where we can and should question everything! newrepublic.com/post/201194/...

I love R.E.M. but one of my favorite @michaelstipe.bsky.social songs is his duet with Asha Bhosle, "The Way You Dream." Michael's voice really shines when he sounds like he's singing only to you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Exds...

Timmy loves him some grift, y'all. #ncpol

ICE is not a law enforcement agency. It is a domestic paramilitary force whose purpose is state sponsored violence and intimidation. So fellow law enforcement folks out there: These aren't our people. You don't need to support them or give them the benefit of the doubt.

Hmm. This reminds me that Google just announced that future versions of Android will only allow apps to be installed from its Google Play store. I can't help but wonder if the Trump regime is influencing Google's decision the way it apparently swayed Apple's.

From the EFF: > [ICE is buying a location tracking tool that harvests data from hundreds of millions of phones a day](www.404media.co/ice-to-buy-t...). Protect your location data by updating a few settings on your phone.

Make it so.

I love this young woman's attitude. Good for her! She will no doubt go on to more great things.

I always pay attention to what stories People Magazine and other consumer media outlets cover. That's how you can tell that something has broken through the usual political and news bubbles. This horrific Chicago story has broken through. people.com/ice-agents-o...

When the crowd catches up to him, this bewildered Nazi says "I thought you were the party of peace?" Not if you're a Nazi asshole, we aren't.

Sorry we had to cancel your cancer treatment, but the Secretary of Defense had to fly all the generals in so he could call them fat.

Except ... except ... this is a good way to guarantee only the uber-wealthy will be able to serve in Congress. This is, uh, not what we need.

A whopping 38% of Russia’s refining capacity is now offline, according to The Economist. Gasoline output fell by 1 million tons in September which has created a 20% domestic shortfall. Repairs may take months because of sanctions limiting access to parts and tech.

As I've been saying, authoritarians HATE being laughed at so the more absurd our reaction the better. Make them look ridiculous! Another great response would be to blast children's music whenever they're marching. If they're filming it for a propaganda video, make sure the music is copyrighted.

Judge issues blistering opinion against Trump policy to deport pro-Palestinian students Judge rules non-citizens have the same free speech rights as US citizens under the first amendment www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is an astonishing statistic.

Hundreds of thousands of stasi agents won’t even get paid. Are you happy now libs? Not so funny when the secret police have to work for free

Argument erupts on the NC elections board over the new role handed a former GOP operative ncnewsline.com/briefs/argum...

a man who gets an email like this from his own mother should be legally required to reveal it to every woman he ever meets ever ever

This theory holds up.

I am getting excited about Howl Owl Howl. There is serious talent here.

👀

Unbelievable.

No one is above the law.

Men will literally release classified documents about Amelia Earhart instead of going to therapy.

Holy crap.

Ayup.

Awww, yeah. It'a my favorite season.

Actually, there's nothing to see here. This is routine activity that the USAF is well-rehearsed in handling.

I am still absolutely gobsmacked that Secretary of Defense "Whiskey Pete" Hegseth is fool enough to do this, putting the world's security in jeopardy just to stroke his ego. snyder.substack.com/p/hegseth-pu...

Do you KNOW how mad it makes us Democrats that James Comey has been indicted? I mean, y'all are going to make us have to defend THIS guy?

I walked up a broken escalator once and lived to tell about it.

This story on the NY SIM farm is worth a read. The criminals' intent was not to disrupt mobile comms - any Bubba with a backhoe could easily do that - it was to anonymously harass people by call or text. Kudos to the Secret Service!

In the DC area, ABC did NOT air Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. Here are the commercials that aired on ABC in Kimmel's time slot. I won't be spending a single dollar on any of these products/services: Wendy's Sketchers Kia Jeep Cirque du Soliel Safestep Walk In Tubs AMP Sales & Marketing Solutions

We went to a country with spotty #Waze coverage and the map nerd in me felt compelled to fix things. Then I recalled Waze is owned by a fat corporation that could easily pay me for map edits but won't. Now I am all in again with #OpenStreetMaps. If I work for free then everyone should benefit.

It's sad that this man died and I feel for the families, but they absolutely should have bought event insurance.

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

Breaking: Jimmy Kimmel to return Tuesday.

Justice Kagan, dissenting, says the majority will clearly overturn Humphrey's Executor soon—but objects that "our emergency docket should never be used, as it has been this year, to permit what our own precedent bars," or to "transfer government authority from Congress to the President."
