#r4today For some kids, social media can be a lifeline.

like, i can quantify, in billable hours, how much refuting chatGPT has cost my client, because this isn’t the first time this has happened, and it’s unlikely to be the last.

‘Has the bisexual “trend” started to reverse?’ – no, any decrease just reflects how much harder it is becoming to be out as bisexual www.wearequeeraf.com/biphobia-is-...

andrew wakefield belongs in prison so does hilary cass. she's done the same thing to gender affirming care and trans ppl as andrew wakefield has done to vaccinations and autistic ppl @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social and wes streeting should be in court doctors who wilfully create medical disinformation

the reason DHS officers wear masks is because it allows them to commit crimes with impunity. there is literally no legitimate reason for it.

it never ACTUALLY turns out to be a good idea to elect your own psychopath just because the other side has one, but I sure do understand the temptation

Countries in “not interested in exchanging neighbourhood authoritarian strongman for overseas authoritarian looney” shocker.

12 months of MAHA: Our last foodborne botulism outbreak hasn’t been resolved yet & now one of the only affordable sources of lean protein is a botulism risk, too; measles cases are exploding, even tuberculosis is on the rise. And they’re still trying to deregulate more. Maybe expertise did matter…

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1781

Holding up the corpse of your murdered daughter without once speaking a word about transphobic radicalization, the transphobic policies many of those selfsame Labor MPs support, or the transphobic rhetoric in the press, all to focus on Those Damn Phones. How nauseatingly British.

An entire community of thousands, here legally, having been demonized with deranged lies about eating pets, is about to be arbitrarily DECLARED illegal so they can be forcibly ethnically cleansed. I don’t want to hear one more fucking word about comparisons to Nazi Germany being overwrought.

If only...

the one silver lining of all this bullshit with the dems is people are grasping the whole problem of advocating for reforms on law enforcement that clearly nobody can or is willing to enforce

This is where neoliberal capitalism has got us. This person truly believes an economic and military union with fascists is the sensible and grown up way to navigate the world. According to this worldview things can never improve. Dick Cheney is smiling up at this from Hell.

It's naked self interest and also, of course, incredibly stupid. You cannot trust fascists! They will not protect you! Yet sharing military intelligence with fascists is a good thing to this person, so much so that they are arguing for it purposefully against reasonable democratic social change!

As an historian I often wonder how people learned nothing from the twentieth century and how we have fallen into the mess and rise of fascism yet again and here we are. People simply *don't care* that they are in a military alliance with and dependant on a fascist state when capitalism requires it.

From Massachusetts to Minnesota, the people demand accountability. Abolish ICE. Impeach Kristi Noem. End qualified immunity. Cut off funding for DHS. Congress cannot keep sponsoring this campaign of cruelty.

Even if you don't use this app, there are a ton of people out there looking to market their apps without thinking about their users. So yeah, use it as a cautionary tale. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. The full story by @emanuelmaiberg.bsky.social here: www.404media.co/app-for-quit...

There's been literally one "good" ex-presidency since 1945

The Episcopal Church has put together a very impressive toolkit for protesting, including tips for clergy in particular. Truly inspiring. This is how Christians ought to be engaging the moment. www.episcopalchurch.org/protesting-f...

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani said on Wed. at a press conference that he supports disbanding the NYPD’s Strategic Response Group (SRG), the counterterrorism unit that carried out the first mass arrests of his admin. on Tue. evening during anti-ICE protests at a Manhattan hotel. Mamdani said he is in...

I'm starting to think the Trumpist mastery of propaganda is failing them. The DHS agents posing this way makes it look like they're ashamed of themselves.

Owl lads.

the only people “manufacturing martyrs” are the people killing folks

The position of Tablet Magazine is that ICE is the IDF and that's good.

In all the escalating bullshit, I have this to say: what the fuck??? why????? ban us already!!!

“It did help me realize how important it is that we’re still at the point where people run to danger, and where people assist and help when someone’s being taken, and that we’re not at the point where people turn their eyes or are too afraid to see what’s going on.” lithub.com/everything-w...

EXCLSUVIE: The Trump administration has secretly rewritten nuclear safety rules and shared them with the companies they're meant to regulate, without making the new rules publicly available. We've obtained a copy of the new rules and here's what we found. www.npr.org/2026/01/28/n...

'my dear friend, graham, i respect your right to support the summary execution of civilians.' - rosie duffield

yeah, it’s totally impossible for far right dipshits to have kids who turn out to be completely opposite of them

Durham cops are making a strong case for why our society would be safer without cops. They might be adding Violent Hate Crime to the list of offenses they're in trouble for this month. Cops ripped her headscarf off, beat her & dragged her to a cell. Thx @nolore.bsky.social for highlighting this

she would be deporting a shit ton of people but more quietly, and liberals would be supporting it

We’re seeing news media slowly lose its precious access to politicians. Between Poilievre prioritizing content creators and this, the right is seizing upon the disinformation ecosystem and finally edging out what little criticism legacy news provides.

OFCOM's age-verification protocols have become unworkable for many platforms with adult content, many of whom are now blocking countries entirely. One problem? Brits are not complying with the biometrics and face scans and are instead going to VPNs or non-compliant sites outside the country.

“I’ve got nothin’ to hide,” Doug Ford likes to say (and has to say it often, what’s up with THAT?) and yet here he is, hiding 😡 If Marit Stiles’ NDP were at ALL effective, they’d be holding regular press conferences about his corruption and handing out red-and-white-striped “WHERE’S DOUG?” hats 😃

Remember back when ICE goons invaded a Hyundai plant, arrested all the workers, mocked them with racist slurs, and then deported them back to South Korea? Seems like South Korea remembers.

I don't even know where to start with the illegal...The Executive does not have the constitutional power to raise revenue. The Executive does not have the constitutional power to make decisions about expenditures. The Executive does not have the power to privatize the functions of the US Treasury...

Imagine Schumer desperately trying to fantasize about the Baileys but each time he tries to go to his happy place he's assaulted by visions of suburbans telling him to eat shit and retire bitch.

man this place sucks more without Link

rare to get such a clear glimpse into the mind of someone whose response to problems in his personal life was to blame black people
