I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

From a French Revolution museum exhibit in Paris… they wore jewelry with guillotines… ahahaha This is a pair of guillotine earrings with the heads of Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI.

Trump covered up the Jeffrey Epstein case on the same day Netanyahu was visiting him at the White House. Just food for thought.

grok was too woke now it’s a nazi

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

A reminder to reporters, when historians look back on this moment with the president throwing himself a military parade and the people throwing No Kings rallies across America, the media sources raving about the former and sneering at the latter are going to be quoted by name. This is your legacy!

“You’re very rude to me, aren’t you?” “I am very rude to you because of what you’ve done to my country.” @mrjamesob.bsky.social is less than impressed with Brexit voter Richard.

Carl Sagan when asked, "Are you a Socialist?"

Turns out the answer to the rightwing meme “what is a man?” is “someone who gets fucked to death by Mr. President while applauding.”

not enforcing universal capital punishment for gestapo and concentration camp guards was a Nuremberg L, we need to learn from the mistakes of the past

France, the country of true justice

A big part of the problem is stupid people have been convinced by rich people that AI is God, when AI is closer to an automatic dog food dispenser.

O que Zelensky nos deu hoje na Sala Oval, ao não se vergar à intimidação de um extorsionário, foi uma autêntica lição de anti-imperialismo. Incluindo a muito auto-denominados anti-imperialistas, que naturalmente a rejeitarão, mas que não durariam 30 seg. numa situação análoga.

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Spain must be kicking itself that she went back home.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

No one man should have the power to control speech and information for hundreds of millions of people.

Facebook and Instagram accounts deleted. Twitter was deleted two months ago. Amazon will be next.

The right's assertion that there are "alpha" and "beta" males implies that gender exists on a spectrum and is not binary. Also, meet their "alpha"

Opinion | Elon Musk's brilliance starts with letting his lieutenants run the day-to-day of his most valuable properties, whether that's Linda Yaccarino (X), Gwynne Shotwell (SpaceX), or Donald Trump (United States of America).

So what did Vikings really look like? TV/movies tell us they looked like dollar-store biker gangs, wearing black leather, covered in dirt and allergic to colours... but in reality... they looked like 1970s pop singers. Seriously, thread time.🧵 Photo: Roberto Fortuna

I think some folks are upset the Luigi isn’t a hard leftist but I think a coalition of doers with a common enemy is extremely essential for actual political progress and this is a huge win for all of us

40 WAYS TO DIE IN THE PREHISTORIC. Enjoy! These illustrations were made as scale drawing for a book about prehistoric creatures. Thought it would be fun to have a bit more interaction between the animals and human figures

He will live in infamy because history is written by dispassionate scholars based on facts, not ideological political extremists living in their own reality. #NoNamesNeeded

There is nothing more infuriating than people identifying as progressive crying about the influx of newcomers and the end of the "exclusiveness" of Ol'Bluesky.

Some Roman amphitheatres were fortified and built up in the post-Roman period. The one in Arles still had buildings inside in the 19th century. If you want to imagine how it was, just look at the Osaka stadium during model houses exhibition! J. B. Guibert 1825 (L) and Naoya Hatakeyama 1998 (R)

Handaxes on the move! We’ve been busy making lots of replica prehistoric goodies for Christmas presents. But a couple found themselves on a plane with @profaliceroberts.bsky.social heading to Australia for her Cells to Civilisation tour! Here’s one of Palaeolithic handaxes being made: 🏺 🦣 🧪

Can I give you a piece of advice? There is no perfect "liberal" who agrees with you, 100%. If we'd like to have 𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕𝒔𝒐𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 of defeating modern fascism, these purity tests need to die. This is an emergency, and we don't have the luxury of left-wing purity sniping.

Star Trek is best when it’s social commentary dressed up in campy sci-fi and goofy shenanigans. Just let us enjoy an escapist vision of fully automated luxury space communism!
