i started making fun of Jeremy Renner as a bit on the show years ago. didn't have any reason to think he was an awful person, just felt like he was up his own ass enough to be funny.

anyway turns out he's an actual monster. i take back my apology over making fun of his weird snowplow accident.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands The short documentary β€œRovina’s Choice” tells the story of what goes when aid goes.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

The goddamn nerve of Jeff Bezos' newspaper to talk shit about raising the minimum wage at a moment when workers at Jeff Bezos' online superstore -- who are paid so little half of them in one study were on SNAP benefits -- are going hungry.

The fucking arrogance.

Loevy plays a video of a woman's arrest. Hewson says the woman was "assaultive" because she kicked a can of tear gas that had been deployed.

Loevy: "When you tear gas somebody … and they try to kick the tear gas canister away from them, that's assaulting?"

Hewson: "Yes."

Media Pontificating About Trump’s Motives for Attacking Venezuela Keep Ignoring that he Openly Admitted It Was to Take Their Oil BBC, Politico, WaPo, CNN entertain many reasons for why Trump wants regime change in Venezuelaβ€”while ignoring the most obvious.

As @ahjohnson.bsky.social points out here, the US media is stroking its chin & pondering why Trump wants to attack Venezuela. They somehow overlook his stated motivation, which is that Venezuela has the world's biggest oil reserves.

In the months after Harris’ loss, much was made over the demographic shifts in the party. Young voters, Hispanic voters and Black voters β€” all central to the Democratic coalition β€” had moved substantially to the right. But Priorities’ post-election polling revealed an equally staggering swing: Between 2020 and 2024, people who consumed at least three hours of YouTube a day had moved 10 points toward Trump β€” a bigger swing than Black voters, Black men, young voters and a slew of other categories that were dominating headlines.

β€œThe driver of behavior in β€˜24 was so much more about your media consumption,” Butterfield said.

UN leaders condemn β€˜horrifying’ mass killings in Sudan Emergency security council session criticises killings of civilians in El Fasher and external supply of arms to RSF

Staggering atrocities in Sudan.

Following the mass slaughter of nearly 500 men, women, and children at a maternity hospital, UN officials say: "The situation is simply horrifying... El Fasher, already the scene of catastrophic levels of human suffering, has descended into an even darker hell."

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people
