The fact that J.K. Rowling successfully bullied Amnesty International into taking down a report that accurately called out her attack on trans people, especially trans women, is so repulsive and such a display of the power of her money, and her choice to put her vast fortune behind persecution.

Today is a great reminder that we can never be too ready.

it rocks that Lindsey Graham lived to see the US lose a war with Iran and then immediately died lmao

People are right to be mad about the predictable Platner fiasco, but it's worth remembering that last year a ton of establishment Democrats supported disgraced sexual harasser Andrew Cuomo against clean-as-a-whistle Zohran. Tolerating problem men is an issue across the ideological spectrum.

88 feels 96 feels absolutely refreshing after last week

And then you see it. As it strangles and beats your friends to death... the sweetest most courageous people in the world. You see the fear and power in its eyes. Then you *know*. That the bourgeois are not human.

Trump getting split in half by a bolt of lightning while giving a speech on America's 250th would be the greatest thing to happen in human history and could never be topped

“Today the name of ‘American’ belongs to you every bit as much as it does to me,” he said. He spoke to their arduous journeys to this point and their histories, now merged with America. “So, my fellow Americans, to you, I say simply: ‘Welcome home’.”

Trundle first pick in game 5 was a baffling choice

piracy is the only extant form of media preservation that exists in games right now, you might find it morally reprehensible but there is literally no other institution that will keep games alive in 25, 50 years' time

CONGRESS: Under what authority is ICE supporting the FBI's Anti-Government Violent Extremism Task Force? ICE Assistant Director: "We follow NSPM-7."

my god

WV v. BPJ in plain English: the system refuses to let them play with the girls because of the sex they were assigned at birth, and their medical transition makes it physically unviable to play with the boys. The court knows this effectively ends their athletic participation and simply does not care.

The hardest anyone has ever been owned is Filippo Argenti getting written into 5th circle of hell in Dante’s Inferno. He was Dante’s real life political rival. Imagine someone quote dunked you so hard people were still retweeting it 700 years later. Brutal.

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

“Loitering is not permitted in this area. Please proceed to a designated location. Thank you for your cooperation,” a surveillance machine tells a small cluster of National Guard members as they patrol the fenced off Reflecting Pool in the rain.

the neighborhood is burning down and this guy is standing in the ashes writing citations for noise violations

wow the new Shizuka Kudo album has a surprising amount of guitar

Federal sentencing has started. Zachary Evetts was just sentenced to 50 years by Chief District Judge Reed O'Connor. Maricela Rueda was just sentenced to 840 months / 70 years by Judge Mark Pittman.

I actually think this bears repeating: Our Director of National Intelligence was just shown to *literally be taking secretive orders about what precisely to do and say in politics* from a scary cult leader in Hawaii And it wasn’t even front-page news How am I supposed to react to this?

This isn't a joke, it's not hyperbole, this is what they actually said - and GN mentioned the same is happening to companies like G. Skill who have been selling RAM to consumers for *decades*

Families in Tennessee with critically ill or severely disabled children who are undocumented are being asked to leave the state program that pays for lifesaving medication and treatment or stay and have their child reported to immigration authorities.

I'm sorry, but we've passed the point of GreenwaterGate being some cutesy ridiculous story. It sure seems like the WH sent cops to find people to arrest/detain because Trump can't accept that his contractor messed us, decided to blame "liberal scum," and his troops were ordered to find "suspects"

jesus tapdancing christ dude. jesus, mary, and chain what are they doing over there

Took this video of a guy getting detained and a citation for putting his hand in the water an hour ago.

Did you touch the Reflecting Pool

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to show up in full combat gear on a hot summer day to the pool he filled with algae because he gave a paint job to one of his cigar puffing cronies. you are ordered to stop tourists from touching the green water. good luck soldier

Handful of detainments here by the reflecting pool. They are being done a variety of officers, including Monroe County Sheriff, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma State Police, US Marshals, a county in Texas I can’t make out, and a county in New York I can’t make out.

The Trump administration detained a Colombian immigrant this week in Phoenix after he spoke out against a Trump-endorsed candidate in his home country’s upcoming presidential election. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/19/u...

for what it’s worth, trans women in a federal case I’m covering have been denied their hormones while being held in men’s facilities under federal charges. I feel like cis people don’t realize that this is happening at all

there needs to be a coordinated global effort among democracies to destroy this man's financial and social media empires and leave him impoverished and powerless

“os(jerk)off” is just sad, man. the guy produced “washed up psycho bette midler” and “tedious smokey the bear commercials”. it’s like watching manning in 2015 except von miller isn’t there to win it for him

Some really crazy cases in here - cop looked up ex-girlfriend and family in Flock 100+ times - cop stalked wife giving "test" as reason - cop searched one plate 395 times in 10 months; was later fired Cops keep getting arrested for using Flock to stalk people www.404media.co/cops-keep-ge...

Forcing immigrant detainees to work for their captors isn’t just exploitative It’s unconstitutional Trump's policies are dramatically expanding both the immigration detention population and the nation’s Thirteenth Amendment crisis ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

platner complains his past is 'being described'

Graham Platner looks like a guy you have to assassinate at an inn in Whiterun during the Dark Brotherhood questline

What's happening with Platner is why you hop off the bus at "he has a nazi tattoo"

Oh, you can't write a 5-page book report without AI? I fucking wrote 5-page book reports without having read the goddamn book. Get your finger out of your ass.

The author who published a book about truth and AI that was embarrassingly revealed to have included AI-hallucinated quotes told @wired.com that he'd rather quit writing than quit using AI.

Asakura is a monster

I don’t know what to say. This is just insane:

I've been unable to get any information about the status of the protester whose leg was run over and who was then taken away by ICE. If you know anything, please message me on Signal at marisakabas.04

🚨 ICE KICKS PROTESTER INTO MASSIVE MOVING SEMI?! 🚨 Photos Will Allen-DuPraw captured show the protester’s foot caught underneath the truck moments later. Their condition is currently unknown. This happened just after midnight, as Day 6 turned into Day 7 of the Delaney Hall hunger and labor strike.

Listen, I was born poor and rural. My high school mascot was a literal hillbilly. I understand white trash culture. I can say with complete confidence that this is white trash culture. 

This photo of Andy Kim in the moments before ICE gassed everyone at Delaney Hall is going into the history books. We need more of this from our electeds.

The perfect, distilled embodiment of the exact institutional rot revealed in the DNC postmortem. He fundamentally misunderstands the physics of class struggle because he is entirely insulated from it.

When the DNC funnels tens of millions of dollars into unwinnable deep-red states, where does that capital actually go? It does not go to the working class. It flows directly to media buyers (who take standard percentage commissions on useless ad buys), digital strategists, and polling firms.

Still thinking about how the US President had a guy accompany him as a special guest to a football game solely and specifically because he strangled a homeless black man to death, and how quickly we all moved on from that.
