People also go "Well MiTcH McCoNnElL!" without understanding that the dems literaly denied UC so much that it ground the senate to the halt and forced Thune to change the rules in a way that McConnell refused to do. They were literally more obstructive than any McConnell-era shenanigans in 2025!

increasingly it seems that the most prescient spy movie of our time is burn after reading

One of the side effects of "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed" is that nobody can touch all the grass. There are too many types of grass and the particular kind of grass that cures that ailment (a ride in a waymo) may simply be unavailable in the poster's regional biome.

best owl photo i ever took.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

they fired everybody who knows that Puerto Ricans are American

I sometimes wonder what the world would look like if a generation of tech, science, and business reporters hadn't decided that the press release was the news

wondering if they had an opinion on CA's redistricting (if they did, no surprise which way it bent)

glad Ossoff is using this but it's not his coinage; it was common enough that David Brooks was condemning it last year, shortly before being revealed to be a member.

Don't know why There's no sun up in the sky Stormy tenure Since my Bezos and I ain't together Keep firing all of the staff

I can wait until Thursday thats all good!

The Crespo-Gonzalez family is home. Our community refused to stay silent in the face of such an immoral, unethical detention. Now, we must continue speaking up for the countless other families and children imprisoned by Trump. Stay loud.

Ghislaine Maxwell is set to finally give a deposition in front of the Oversight Committee on Monday—and I will be there. We are being told that she is blanket pleading the 5th for every single question. What is she hiding and who is she protecting? We will not stop until we get to the truth.

LOL.... i wanted to hear JD getting booed at the Olympics and when i searched for it on YouTube i got this

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

I haven't watched one in maybe fifteen years and I feel fucking amazing.

I cannot stress this enough: you want to write a book? Write it. Do it now. Don’t wait. There is never a perfect time and you don’t need anyone’s permission. There are always dragons ahead. Not to be dark, but the cliff awaits. Write it in scraps, in voice notes, in a crappy notebook...

Losing faith in every single public figure and institution has done wonders for my Impostor Syndrome

Red Wine & Blue now has more than 600,000 members. Its members and affiliated groups held 4,000 events last year, most of them in person. On Tuesday, they raised more than $100k in less than an hour to support Haitians in Springfield, OH & oppose ICE. 19thnews.org/2026/02/wine... via @19thnews.org

Today, February 7, 2026, is officially the 100th anniversary of Negro History Week and the 50th anniversary of Black History Month. Carter G Woodson purposely started Negro History Week on February 7th so that it would end on February 14th, which is Frederick Douglass's birthday

Una guardería de corales une ciencia y comunidad en el Caribe colombiano El cervicornis, una de las especies de coral más amenazadas, ha sido reproducido más de 50.000 veces en los laboratorios del Centro de Vida Marina de Santa Marta

Gosh it’s a beautiful world

Not even the Colombian angle can get me to root for the Patriots.

on the balance i think partisan gerrymandering is bad but the only way it ends is if democrats weaponize it against republicans everywhere they can. wiping out republican lawmakers in blue states might bring the GOP to the table to end the practice.

Schmitt ended World War II by getting captured by soldiers (not a committee!) from the United States, which at the time was led by... the Democratic Party. Like the context here is that Schmitt was *extremely and famously wrong* and I feel like maybe we should not lose sight of that lol

Wow, what an afternoon. I knew we'd be firm, but I didn't expect things to get that heated. I like Rosa, but she has been coming up short right when we need her most. Not every faith leader at today's meeting wanted to abolish ICE, but I think all seemed to want more than what she is proposing.

This is true for so many of these performers. As a kid, I got to hear Big Bird say very not Big Bird things

the best part of using Gemini is when it identifies the problem correctly, understands how to fix it, but over-corrects in the offered solution, and then doubles down when corrected

Mongolia and Haiti correctly identified that the Winter Olympics are primarily a chance to design baller cold weather uniforms

zopencos

I cannot sufficiently underline how despicable it is that the IOC has required Haitian Olympic athletes to remove an image representing the leader of the Haitian Revolution (against SLAVERY) from their uniforms.

kinda wild to see complaints about LLMs and autonomous vehicles that are the same from 2-3 years ago as if the tech had not advanced at all

Also, disappointing that @kstptv.bsky.social describes this as a "pedestrian crash".
