This is really great reporting from Mother Jones - the "godfather" of evidence-based medicine disavows the Society for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine for misusing his work. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

i am on my hands and knees actually begging people to stop doomposting on my posts/calls to action/infographics etc not only is it bad for YOUR mental health, its bad for MY mental health, and worst of all it may scare off people who otherwise could have been moved to action. PLEASE STOP IT.

Let op: vandaag is 25-9-2025. Alle getallen zijn kwadraten van een heel getal. Volgende keer is pas in 2116, dus geniet extra.

Ted Cruz wants you to stop talking mean about ICE because it leads to 'political violence' but Musk, Vance, Trump, and Nancy Mace wont stop inciting violence against trans people. Assailants in this story *cite Trump*. www.thestranger.com/news/2025/09...

«Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels haven't aged well. For example, Moonraker—published almost exactly 70Y ago in April 1955—features a villain who's a super-rich industrialist & rocket-maker seeking to cause chaos because he's a secret Nazi. Such a silly idea!» Source: x.com/ChrisO_wiki/...

cant believe they did this to Deus Ex well, i can believe it, but it still feels wrong

Ooh, do you suppose this might be why the Bony T. Liar foundation is suddenly bleating about digital ID cards and pot-holes all of a sudden? A Blairite dead cat on the table to distract from Blair's culpability in the Libyan civil war (and other crimes against humanity)?

Dit gaat niet (primair) over "populisme" maar over "nativisme" (xenofoob nationalisme) en zelfs "racisme".

yeah this guy is dumber than donkey shit

It’s wild that Kate Nash, someone with industry/media support and a substantial fanbase, cannot afford to tour. We’ve built a system where the only profitable path for the majority of artists is absolutely not their art. It’s a system destined to kill bands before they even begin, and that sucks.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

All of the cards of this deck are cool, mostly because I drew them, but here’s some more of my faves. (spoilered bc they can be a little naked and violent)

Niets geleerd van het rapport van Jason en de mishandeling van het Vlaardingse pleegmeisje. Niet geluisterd naar de Inspectie die al sinds 2019 alarm slaat. Jeugdzorg is geen prioriteit voor de meeste politieke partijen. Dáárom duurt de crisis voort. www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/...

EUROPEAN: Ah! [American third-rate politican]! He texted his dick to people. I know this basically against my will. AMERICAN: I don't know what's going on over there. You're ruled by the Marquis of Racism or something?

no they're not. this is a joke

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 🧵)

Inmiddels gaat het over de rechtsextremistische rellen na de zogenaamde ‘anti-immigratiedemonstratie’. Alsof die bijeenkomst, met racistische sprekers die fulmineerden tegen migranten, een onschuldig samenzijn was.

CHOTINER: So You created us right GOD: Yes CHOTINER: In Your image GOD: Yes CHOTINER: And sometimes we do bad things GOD: Oh Yes CHOTINER: And then you send plagues and floods GOD: OK I think I see where you are going with this

De VVD wil dat de minister met de polder gaat praten over oplossingen voor de stikstofcrisis. (De 'polder' praat al jaren met de minister en heeft tientallen plannen voorgedragen, maar is zó teleurgesteld in het kabinetsbeleid dat ze onlangs zelfs boos wegliepen bij een ministerieel overleg.)

i think a lot of the whole gen z hates sex scenes thing can largely be boiled down to "generation that lives with parents doesn't want their parents to walk in at the wrong time"

Last day

Okay I still have to clean the house and do some laundry and pack (again) and try to answer some emails (kill me) but also I was looking for old Halloween costumes in my photos and does anyone remember this guy (The party theme that year was 'sci-fi')

For all this talk of hatred on various platforms, I rarely see YouTube mentioned. YouTube leadership desperately need to be held to account for the hatred and endangerment their platform has facilitated and financially incentivised for many, many years now.

dutch nazis using the east india company flag seems objectively comical for some reason i can't explain. it's not very strongman fuhrerprinzip of you to choose a part of your history, however genocidal, that was essentially guided by gay twink merchant lords

“An emotional research team became tearful as they described how data shows the disease was slowed by 75% in patients.” What an absolutely incredible, joyous achievement for everyone involved. Hurrah for science and scientists! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Het politieke debat in een notendop.

De prinsenvlaggen die de Vlaggen Unie te koop aanbiedt, worden door extreem-rechtsen gebruikt om het fascisme te verheerlijken en om Joden, mensen van kleur, lhbtqia+-mensen en anti-fascisten te beledigen en te vernederen. Zo ondersteunt de Vlaggen Unie het opkomende fascisme.

This may be a hot take, but I think that the Adeptus Mechanicus needs to revert to their original Giger-esque aesthetic. Biomechanical body horrors will always convey a grimdark lack of humanity more than generic cyborgs ever will.

Angststoornis bleek tumor. Jarenlange pijn bleek endometriose ❤️‍🩹 Confronterende verhalen over misdiagnoses en pijn bij vrouwen die niet serieus werd genomen. Daarom de terechte oproep van Voices for Women: Neem vrouwengezondheid serieus! Tijd om dat eindelijk te doen!✊🏽

I have a dear friend who was incarcerated for several years, and spent quite a bit of that working in the prison kitchen. He also reported, directly to me, that they regularly got bags and boxes of food marked "not for human consumption".

Is Nederland te klein voor de wolf? Stas Rummenie (BBB) gaf Wageningen universiteit opdracht dit te onderzoeken. Dat deden ze naar eer en geweten. Maar er kwam niet uit het onderzoek wat hij wilde. Dus ... besloot hij dat ze de opdracht niet hadden begrepen. www.volkskrant.nl/politiek/wol...

Going to give this a try.

Breaking: Trump's US envoy to Syria (also one of his few personal friends) apparently wholly unaware of what "Islam" means. This is stunning and in any normal world would be career ending for any diplomat in the Middle East.

It's time for my annual ritual where I'm all agog at the speaker list for Roguelike Celebration, my favorite conference in games, now in its TENTH (!!?) year www.roguelike.club/event2025.html

This is a martyrdom cult and martyrdom cults seldom end well.

Official data is in today, and America set a new record-high for solar power in July, with generation up 30% compared to last year!

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him. I'm talking about something very different. Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired. Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to. But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Please, please help if you can on this one, folks. I'm really stressed out about it.

Terwijl rechts de samenleving ophitst werken wij aan oplossingen. Gebouwen moeten niet leegstaan: daar moeten mensen in wonen. Dankzij @lucstultiens.bsky.social komt er een eind aan dit perverse verdienmodel van speculanten. www.woonbond.nl/pers/aangeno...

The Making of Prey by @noclipvideo.bsky.social (2021) is an excellent documentary, recommended for fans and anyone interested in video game development. It's almost like a crash course in the specifics of the medium. To think that ZeniMax dissolved this expertise by closing Arkane Austin. 🤯

Look, I think they got it wrong. It's not 'RAPTURE' day, it's 'RE-UP ART' day. They just got the letters in the wrong order 😀 How silly. So let's re-upload some art!
