Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

Now including WHATTTT?

This is the agent that murdered the woman in Minneapolis on 1/7/2026.

She was a queer woman peacefully exercising her First Amendment right. Every person with a sound conscience should be furious.

keep thinking of a vocally anti-woke reporter who insisted that the term "environmental racism" was nonsense

watching Helen Lewis claim she's got the key to understanding American politics is like watching a cat chasing a laser pointer, except the cat is somehow claiming it's figured out how to solve world hunger. also the cat is transphobic and will try to get you fired if you point this out

It's still going, lads. #lastyearsmilk

We have learned that Sex Matters - the anti trans group whose activities you are obliged to fund through your taxes - is being investigated by the Charity Commission. goodlaw.social/j4r1

You have to laugh really. It’s like discovering that the government believes that “pee is stored in the balls”.

My goodness this is grim from the BBC.

This poster is one of the best on here and I’m so sad we’re losing her because of the appalling harassment she has been subjected to. Of course she must look after herself. And the rest of us need to do whatever we can to challenge and change this cruel, sick, dangerous, culture.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

What a fucking engine and player ....👏🏼🦾🔥

Useful discussion of the differences and similarities to the situation with Panama and Noriega in 1989, and to previous US interventions in the region. (Unpaywalled version of the article linked in the comments.)

You let the devil in, he brought his pirate friends, they brought a hunger for blood and flesh and bone and skin

All the hand-wringing over giving the papers an open goal over trans stuff or Israel, and now he equivocates over a blatant breach of international law by a US President abhored by almost everyone in the country.

Yeah, he'll be gone by Easter.

Parker's piece nails why this matters. "Tech companies... would rather not answer for their products’ failures. Every headline that says “Grok apologizes” or “Grok admits” or “Grok says” creates a world where the chatbot takes the fall while Musk and his executives face no scrutiny whatsoever."

It's mind boggling that this product is still out there and the people who made it and promote it are not suffering any consequences

A vulnerable child was groomed and trafficked and then subjected to the most shocking experiences imaginable including the deaths of her babies. Instead of taking responsibility the British establishment stripped her of her citizenship and dumped her like old rubbish. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

J'ai des mauvaises nouvelles

In the 1920s, the KKK circulated rumors that Catholics had amassed a huge arsenal of weapons and explosives and hidden them in the basements and sewers beneath the University of Notre Dame, in preparation for a Catholic takeover of the US. Thinking about this today for no particular reason.

Daycare centers were also the primary target of the Satanic panic, because fundamentally American religious conservatism is opposed to women having jobs outside the home.

This, combined with "vice signaling" (taking pride in antisocial behavior) has given us the reign of the Stupid Asshole, something most people are against, but can only be remedied if we're not too polite to talk about it

ALL BILLIONAIRES ARE BAD! Including Beyonce! You don't become a billionaire with out exploiting workers and hording wealth. www.digitalmusicnews.com/2017/02/04/b... "Good" Billionaires would not be billionaires because that money would be put to use helping people and planet.

How does Moscow view Donald Trump at the end of 2025? One Russian paper today: “The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World…he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold to be destroyed…” #ReadingRussia youtu.be/7EwZNk6KgHU

will also add - yes, this is my personal crusade - that turning podcasts into videos implicitly asks women to once again make more effort than men, as the bar for "camera-ready" for one gender is obviously higher than for the other

Little girl in a shop: Mum? Her mum: Yes? Girl: There’s an old woman who talks but with no sound, and has a sad face. She tries to tell you things but you can’t see. Mum: Where? Girl (points at floor): Always there. Mum: Well darling, that’s terrifying. Let’s go eat dinner.
