It is *fascinating* to me how quickly some people have gone completely from “we all must work in the office! human collaboration is vital and only happens in person!” to “I can replace all these pesky people with chatbots!” Definitely some commentary there about our society and who gets to choose.
The Mad King demanding the press be “patriotic” by spreading his propaganda about his illegal & disastrous Iran War
Speaking as an American: thank god
i am once again reiterating that the needle is a conservative truscum publication who has repeatedly published what might be charitably described as “sloppy clickbait”.
They're so bad at this, and so used to no one calling them on it.
Undercover Israeli soldiers in the occupied West Bank shot and killed a Palestinian couple in their car and two of their children, aged five and seven.
Khaled, the oldest child who survived, recounted that the soldier declared "we killed dogs", then took him out of the car, and beat him.
If you don't see the problem with forcing this man to carry an F for female on his driver's license then I don't know what to tell you
Last week, violent Israeli settlers, backed by the Israeli military, brutally murdered 3 Palestinian men in the Palestinian town of Abu Falah.
“There’s a feeling of vulnerability & humiliation that you can be killed in our own town without consequences.”
Delta swore to its employees and unions that it was not transporting deportees this way.
Chat is it a good idea to spend a full year calling all our allies weak and gay before starting an illegal war that instantly plunges us into the worst energy crisis in a half-century?

Naturally, because Sunzi's The Art of War is a guidebook for how to teach the failsons of princes to fail less, there is a piece of advice for this: "We cannot enter into alliances unless we are acquainted with the designs of our neighbors."
Yeah, so I realize that strategy is difficult and very advanced and we have to be mysterious like the thunderbolt but generally speaking one normally coordinates with allies BEFORE STARTING THE WAR.
this is a very bold thing to say -- women can't do this -- about a technology that requires the ability to issue detailed natural language instructions to an immensely powerful but childlike simpleton
It is the anniversary of the My Lai massacre today. I'd say that even more than most years, it's important to remember what happened.
And the role Hugh Thompson, an active serviceman, played in both stopping and publicising it. Despite enormous military, political and public pressure to stay quiet.
Tove Jansson’s gorgeous cover for the 1962 Swedish edition of Tolkein’s “The Hobbit” she illustrated.
Glorious
"The thesis of Professor Mamdani’s next book will be that people are by nature migratory beings and that the notion of a homeland is a fiction. "
Very excited for this book.

In times where there is very little to be happy about, at least we can take some solace in the fact that Trump is clearly freaking out
Parents in the South are organizing to support their trans kids. And it turns out, the vast majority of parents with trans kids support them, contrary to the myth that it's so very hard to do. May these courageous families set an example for all. @translash.org translash.org/wire/parents...
Platner says he has met with some hypothetical nameless group of "Jewish leaders" in New York, but he refuses to actually meet with Maine Jewish voters at their shuls.
If you’re seeing the Platner Daily Mail story about how he now no longer regrets his tattoo, that’s the Daily Mail mangling the quote
this is one of the most amazing conversations I have ever seen on Bluesky. It’s a shame that the Louvre deleted his account because this should be framed
Okay I still think Platner is a world-class dumbass, subclass: meathead, but this is important and since i posted something about the original Daily Mail [now-known-to-be-a-mis]quote earlier, i wanted to share this as well

israel is threatening to send almost half a million troops to control *southern* lebanon, how many troops do you think it would take to maintain a level of control over iran sufficient to control their export capabilities
ICE killed another person. This time an Afghani asylum seeker who worked with the US military in Afghanistan.
We put SO MANY Afghanis in danger, abandoned them and left them to the Taliban or put them in concentration camps, and then we wonder why people hate us.

I'm so tired of this guys. First we couldn't use slurs and now we can't even give birth in voice chat. Freedom is threatened at every turn.
