love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

"Never forget that a political, economical or religious crisis is enough to cast doubt on women's rights. These rights will never be vested. You have to stay vigilant your whole life."

When men's workload is automated, it's genius; when women's workload is automated it's a character flaw and morally questionable.

“we estimate that a million satellites could mean that a teragram (one billion kgs) of alumina accumulates in the upper atmosphere – enough, alongside launch emissions, to significantly alter atmospheric chemistry and heating in dramatic ways we do not yet understand.

There is no public mandate […]

YouTube video by ModernLanguageAssoc Justin Fox Deposition (Part 3) in MLA-ACLS-AHA Lawsuit about the NEH

It's stunning how ignorant the DOGE bros were who were sent into agencies. Justin Fox cannot even articulate in his own words what his "present understanding of DEI" is: he can't even formulate a coherent sentence about it. I wouldn't hire him for basic tech support. #NEH

Hey. You know how the AI grift has been teetering on the brink of financial collapse and taking the whole economy with it?

Well.

Guess what all those AI slop data centers run on.

Diesel generators.

The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill her—and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?

shout out to everyone who came before me and figured out what was edible. they did great

OMG they released the deposition videos where they revealed that these two DOGE bros were just feeding grants into ChatGPT and saying "tell me if this is DEI in less than 120 characters."

It's *supposed* to be quite difficult. But apparently the US stopped paying attention to the Constitution a while back.

A knock on the window and a glimpse of America’s surveillance future “This is taking a big and very scary step toward a kind of totalitarian checkpoint society,” a privacy advocate warns in a special France 24–Mother Jones report.

“This is taking a big and very scary step toward a kind of totalitarian checkpoint society.”

The DHS is using Mobile Fortify, an app that allows officers to photograph a person’s face and immediately query DHS databases for matches, on protestors.

President Trump announces that to combat climate change he is facilitating crude oil prices going to $500/barrel.

I feel like it should be bigger news that Trump is now openly considering a military draft. Young men haven't been called up for a draft since 1972. Not during the Gulf War. Not during Iraq or Afghanistan. He received five draft deferments but is now open to drafting your kids.

If just ONE reporter with direct access to him would ask, "Do you think it's pretty ironic for a 5 time draft dodger to talk about drafting people for your war?", I would personally start their GoFundMe for when they're fired 5 minutes later. 👊🏼

👍"Nobody is telling you how FUCKED the data center situation actually is right now.

Every major tech company on earth just spent BILLIONS building AI data centers in the Gulf.

Microsoft. Google. Amazon. Oracle.

All of them. Sitting right there. In the middle of a warzone."

Meanwhile, Spain's massive investment in renewables is paying dividends now: with prices for Spanish industry and consumers low and stable compared with other European economies.

"rest of the world will learn an important lesson from China. Build out your renewables so you aren't as dependent on imported fossil fuels & the whims of idiots"

Be like Spain.

I need every single male artist that follows me to read this. It's not very long. You need to bear witness to this shit. You have to see it with your own eyes because you never will in your everyday life.
