If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

Key Details of 13-Year-Old Trump Accuser’s Accounts Are Verified The newly corroborated details suggest the woman was truthful about numerous aspects of her life.

There is apparently credible evidence that the president of the United States is a pedophile. The comforting phrase “accused him without evidence” no longer fits this situation, and journalists must resort to the more perfunctory “hasn’t been formally charged.” www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...

You know who else hates Daylight Saving Time, aside from your dog? Teenagers on a Monday morning.

The military is run by people who are careless with death and grief.

this video is what I imagine runs on a loop inside Hegseth's brain 24/7.

yay! where? I'm up in Santa Barbara, which I know is a small market and way out of the way but a girl can hope, right? And we've got a great local bookshop....

I hope you come out to southern CA at some point!

Mar 4 2026 BlueSky post claiming that it explained why we bombed a school in Iran "INFORMATION THAT IS A DECADE OLD" and had A Claude chat answer as its source

Hey guys this is not a viable source. Besides the fact that any AI system being used by the government presumably has access to more updated date (I sure hope). Claude is not a person, it can't answer questions about why it did something, it confidently lies, it doesn't have access to other's state.

Mojtaba Khamenei looks to inherit Supreme Leader title from his father. He is super close to the Revolutionary Guard hardliners and in addition to killing his father and mother we also killed his wife and son so this is all going to go so well

Hometown shennigans!

Abolish ICE is a mainstream position.

Hawkeye: Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. War is chock full of them - little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for some of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander.

Hawkeye: War isn't Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse.
Fr Mulcahy: How do you figure, Hawkeye?
Hawkeye: Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell?
Fr Mulcahy: Sinners, I believe.

The "this isn't a war" gaslighting is getting so absurd it's almost crossed over into performance art.

😂

this made me lol. Now that's all I'm gonna think about whenever I hear him speak. Just his internal circuit boards looking for the next most likely word....

Sounds like he's road testing talking points to see what sticks and shoppng around for his next applause line. He doesn't have a solid sound bite for this war yet so he's trying out a few things to see what gets the media going.

If eating a leftover birthday cupcake for breakfast is wrong, I don't wannt be right.

oooh, I forgot how much they loved those videos of missile tracers at night in the sky. Orwellian glee.

This. Being human means accepting that you have agency and responsibility for your actions. When we dehumanize, we let people off the hook too easily. I want billionaires and ICE agents to be accountable, and not be given a free pass from thier humanity and the obligations thereof.

First Venezuela, then Iran, and there's rumbling about Cuba. When will Democrats learn their lesson and stop talking about the Epstein files?

Remember when the Constitution said that Congress was the body authorized to declare war? Impeachment now.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.

We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

"I hope the exhibit leaves people unsettled in a productive way, says artist Wayne Martin Belger. "I don’t tell viewers what side to stand on. I create a space where they have to sit with what they’re seeing."
