The OG stone frigate

Senators look at Trump's shameless corruption and say "give us some of that"

New data shows that the CCRB retroactively doctored public data for more than 10,000 misconduct allegations against NYPD officers. hellgatenyc.com/ccrb-whitewa...

Wife of a furloughed federal worker here. We live in Okinawa & they aren't paying our housing or his salary. We are worried about neighbors & coworkers in the same boat. This sucks. But what sucks worse? Dems fucking betraying us and caving so all of this was for nothing right when we had leverage.

Here's how Tish James addresses Pam Bondi's Halloween time machine -- by calling it one. Again, as a NAL, it would be a super cool assignment for law school to compare these responses.

A systematic attack on the rule of law. Watergate-level high crimes and misdemeanors happening every day.

it's almost as if you shouldn't and can't negotiate with completely amoral vacuous shitgoblins

Men embracing reading is the absolute worst thing to happen to manosphere influencers and hate groups. They don't know how to pivot to take advantage of that. It's not like Andrew Tate is going to be able to lead a YouTube discussion on Watchmen.

remember tuesday? that was 86 years ago

Here are some nice mushrooms

Meanwhile, people unconstitutionally seized or brutalized by ICE agents can’t sue them because there’s no private right of action for them to do that.

Resign right now, you useless, ineffective, Quisling little coward. Go count your money and get out of the way for someone who cares about saving America from this tyranny. You did this, and we all know it.

WEAR YOUR FAVORITE SHINY THING.

If old farts have gone mean as fuck and viciously reactionary with age, then it’s not clear to me that young people are to blame for this or that it’s obviously them who should shut the hell up.

“I’m so relieved that the only problem I cared about - me experiencing mild social discomfort - is now over” my brother in Christ, do you want to bet

What we are effectively doing with AI at present is cannibalizing futures for present "value" that ultimately only exists on the basis of multiplying rather than reducing futures. Or put another way, destruction for destruction's sake.

They used to wiretap your phones to collect this kind of information from you but now you pay for a Bluecheck and post it yourself

Who got the structure of DNA? Franklin, Crick, and Watson. It's true and we can't be stopped.

Still nothing from Utah. But expect Seattle within the next hour at the latest.

There's still a lot of curable ballots from Seattle (about 1,800). Most are unsigned or signature mismatches, and most skew younger.

So to reframe what we're all witnessing in real-time... the tech industry has already committed murder, and it is currently scrambling to figure out how to make that everyone else's problem, and to cover it up, before we notice what actually happened.

A Republican sheriff in a swing county that Trump won by 0.1% signed a contract to help ICE, then lost last week by 11. New by me in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/sheriff-of-b...

"We’re done waiting for Dems to find their spine. We can’t afford a weak & cowardly Democratic Party while the authoritarians invade our cities, terrorize our communities, & threaten our democracy. We get the party we demand, & we intend to demand a Democratic Party that fights.” — @indivisible.org

Censoring sex/gender/sexuality words out of our comics with representative emojis for Facebook/Instagram is just a routine part of the job, but sometimes you have a fresh moment of clarity about just how dumb it truly is. Today's latest linguistic innovation is substituting "foreskin" with 🧦.

“After a year spent organizing to try to convince the Democratic Party to unify and oppose this regime, here’s where I am: The time for convincing is over. We need new leadership.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social Demand that your Dem senators call on Schumer to step aside: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

"Toronto neighbourhood wants to stop cheap homes so they can keep parking spaces" A headline that truly unites the entire world. 🙏♥️ www.blogto.com/real-estate-...

Democrats helped Republicans kill a ten billion dollar industry in order to cave on the shutdown.

Conversely, if the BBC had been producing straight news for the last twenty years, Nigel Farage would have been history ages ago.

If you thought your portfolio was doing badly here, wait till you see what a bear market in Japan looks like

Obsessive ‘gender critical’ transphobic ex-BBC journalist Cath Leng, goes running to obsessive transphobic ex-DM journalist, Sanchez Manning, now working at obsessive trans-hostile newspaper, The Times, to get her soft-focus closeup and ‘woe is me, I woz silenced’ propaganda piece! 🙄😣

Analysis | Yes, Democrats won last Tuesday's elections by double digits. However, they did not win them by triple digits. The time had come to cave to Trump.

I feel like we're in a weird world where the average Dem partisan, engaged voter is better informed than most of their representatives

this is how schumer keeps the baileys in his mind prison

"In areas where bear sightings have been reported, stores will switch automatic doors to manual mode to prevent bears from being able to wander inside."

low polyamory

Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU. YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

Breaking: New lawsuit filed against Trump admin. “The military has made me who I am. It has made me a better person,” plaintiff Master Sgt. Logan Ireland told me. “All that I wish is for the military to see that and to honor that same sacrifice that I’ve given.” www.advocate.com/news/transge...

AUTHORS!! Remember that case where a bunch of authors sued AI for stealing their work? And WON? Well, the settlement money has been announced. Each WORK that got thefted will be compensated $3k (split 50/50 bw publisher + author). So authors will be compensated $1500 per WORK stolen. More here:

It's me, generally healthy person who goes for my annual once a year and that's it. I AM HAPPY TO PAY INTO A SYSTEM THAT HELPS PEOPLE SICKER THAN ME BECAUSE IT INHERENTLY HELPS ME AS A MEMBER OF SOCIETY TOO AHHHHHHHHH

what are you going to do to them, sheldon how are you going to hold them accountable, sheldon do you think this is a fucking game, sheldon

The difference in time between now and I can has cheezburger Is the same between I can has Cheezburger and the Berlin Wall falling

Copper Canyon Press is doing a bit of fundraising for poetry in translation. This is obviously a tough time for everyone, but especially the arts, so if you've got a few spare bucks, here's a good place to put them

There's something that feels a bit dead about the world right now, but tens of thousands of people just came together to help us solve a 100 year old mystery about a little blue jelly, and I find that heartbreakingly hopeful:

Yotei dev: we're tired of the shitty trope that wildlife is just vicious and you have to genocide wolves in every rpg so in our game wolves are your best friend Also yotei dev: However the bears...

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart. If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

Oh, son, if you think a bad night's sleep was the worst of your problems, we're just getting started.

Nationally, every single one of Zohran Mamdani's policies has higher "strong support" than "strong opposition." But tell me again how pro-worker policies only work in NYC.

Don't call the cops on someone in a mental health crisis unless you want them dead.
