The Trump administration has reacted to a small scale lone wolf attack by in DC announcing a sweeping collective punishment, using the organs of government to heap blame on partisan rivals, and potentially dissuading anyone from collaborating with US forces abroad for a generation.

Really worried this woman is going to have to sell her £2million and maybe, sorry, welling up here, maybe have to buy a £1million house like a piece of SHIT.

This is the way.

I really just wanna spit in this man’s face.

This is a man who presided over a govt currently kidnapping innocent immigrant + refugee children & families, putting them in horrific prisons, and then deporting them to dangerous places. Sometimes the hypocrisy is too much to bear.

oh hey I used to make games

And the dead bodies piled up

Somebody needs to write a book on how journalists and biographers have absolutely FUCKED us all over by “holding on” to stories until it’s too late. Seriously. Future historians need this.

Dear professional society leadership:

yep. also really can't overstate how much nuzzi is very much the product of an environment that rewards amoral ambition and frowns on people who sincerely believe anything

I think plenty of it speaks to the state of the media, but an obvious one is that Vox and Vanity Fair barely investigated her and that she managed to commit an unforgivable journalistic crime before getting a book deal and walking into another prestige job, while plenty of others are being laid off

Also these are people at the heights of the industry, and both Nuzzi and Lizza were almost instantly rehabilitated by top media companies after a first round of scandals that should have made them radioactive. Now lo and behold, much bigger shoes to drop, and we probably haven't seen the last of it.

I'm an "A.i." abolitionist. No consumer-facing LLMs or generative "A.i." in anything. Sure, machine learning in science and a few other limited applications is fine. But consumer-facing LLMs and generative "A.i." that are based on theft, push disinfo, and can be manipulated by billionaires? No.

It's not just that the United States has stopped trying to promote liberal democratic ideas internationally. It's that the United States is actively trying to promote the contrary. It's trying to turn more countries into Hungary. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

We found more than two dozen cases of immigration agents using "less lethal" weapons in ways that appear to flout the government's own rules, including by aiming at someone’s head, spine or groin or deploying chemical agents near children. With @frontlinepbs.bsky.social

Elon Musk, the guy who did two Nazi salutes in public and has previously described himself as a “free speech absolutist,” thinks it should be a crime to “falsely” call someone a Nazi or a fascist.

Yeah Lizza's career should be over

I was right

I wish cis people would understand just how stressful it is when every time there's news of gun deaths, far right trolls immediately jump to social media and claim the shooter is trans, and sometimes they'll circulate pictures of random trans women they want to incite violence against.

Zohran also completely defanged the bad faith allegations of antisemitism that have plagued and limited the left for *decades*

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.

This research was published 14 months ago. In *Nature*. Three months BEFORE Wes Streeting announced a "permanent ban" on puberty-blockers. & yesterday, the Tories insisted you don't even need a clinical trial to keep that ban, forever... www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

holy shit lmao

Getting my “swagger” back by murdering millions of seniors

YEP.

Hey, congratulations to all of Olivia Nuzzi’s horny media critic defenders. Heckuva job!

Evergreen

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

"The current horrors are unevenly distributed. Not all of us are suffering the same effects of fascism. We have to do what we can to defend and protect the most vulnerable in our midst. We can do so while keeping grief close and tending to it." 🙏🏼

Boston is entering its 250th year with a truth that can no longer be pushed aside. The city is making room for the people whose histories shape this land, even when those histories were ignored or rewritten. redpopnews.com/ways-of-my-a... #redpopnews #indigisky

Hugely useful www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

there’s this constant mythology about the elusive centrist voter who isn’t represented by the media but whenever they use examples of people not represented by the media it’s always people like alan dershowitz who are still represented in the media and almost exclusively so!

I remain convinced DOGE was a massive, planetary scale data exfiltration scheme and that Palantir has it all now

imagine having to hear shit like "study confirms giving diabetic children insulin reduces their death rates by 100%" as if that hasn't been known for like a hunred years. that's what being trans is like

You know, I'm not sure I ever really read the Pond Rules at our local nature preserve all that closely before

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

The Gaza protests not only “provoked intense political conflict.” Liberal and Dem leaders are still calling them antisemites for caring about liberal principles like human rights and international law…and they expect these same kids to come defend liberal democracy!

I actually think it’s okay to take a ridiculous scandal seriously when it involves a wingnut conspiracy theorist in charge of things like vaccine policy and pandemic preparedness Sorry to be a wet blanket 🤷🏻‍♀️

RFK Jr. is neither a joke nor a well-intentioned proponent of public health with a few kooky beliefs. He's a menace, evil even by the standards of Trump's inner circle, and the failure of the political press to convey this is maddening

Gender-affirming care saves lives

Due to economic reasons, I am no longer a free spirit. I now charge for my spirit. Inquire for pricing.

It is wild to me that the largest company on the stock market, one with such incredible prestige and a huge PR team got dog-walked here. Why would you EVER give this ANY oxygen? Now everybody is asking whether NVIDIA is like Enron! This didn't help at all!

Breaking: Viola Ford Fletcher, the oldest living survivor of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, has died. She was 111 years old

For one moment, all was right with the world.

This is honestly what I've been stuck on all day, in addition to the absurd level of weakness it exposes. This is the "weird," but in their use of the office.

Phil Knight is almost single handedly funding the OR GOP, one of the more extreme state GOPs in the country. Keep that in mind next time you’re in the market for sportswear or sneakers. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Senator Kelly’s remarks in the video are “a 100% accurate representation of what the law says." “No American citizen should have to deal with this type of preposterous investigation.” - Professor Eugene Fidell, leading military justice expert in Wall Street Journal www.wsj.com/politics/mar...

Good.
