“Get these money-lenders out of the temple,” Jesus said, “unless they want to host an exclusive event at 10,000 gold coins per table, which includes access to me and my disciples”.

Little known fact about Jesus: he was also very close to the gambling lobby, and fought hard to shut down freedom of information requests

Typhoon #Kalmaegi is strengthening again after crossing the islands of the Philippines.

Winds are 185 km/h and its intensity will likely continue to increase before it strikes Vietnam in the next 24 hours.

Zohran Mamdani ran on freezing the rent in NYC.

Abigail Spanberger ran on supporting fired federal workers and lowering the cost of living in VA.

Mikie Sherrill ran on lowering utility bills in NJ.

Ensuring people can afford to live a decent life is the path forward.

I used to wonder
if people would take this virus
seriously again
if evidence emerged
that it increases the risk
of heart attack and stroke,
but now that researchers
have found just that
I find myself wondering
what more it will take.

"Well guys, you're gonna have to learn his f*cking name now."

I went on a rant at the Zohran Mamdani event last night, against billionaires who spent millions to try and stop a guy whose name they refuse to correctly pronounce.

We need to start calling misrepresentation of COVID-related harms as due to "lockdowns" what it is: fraud, and a breach of academic integrity.

There's room for good research, but studies that ignore direct effects and mindlessly attribute e.g. changes in mental health to mitigations are dishonest.

Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.

Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.

Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊

Headline reads: “The health care system is failing long COVID patients in Aotearoa New Zealand.” Published November 5, 2025, by the University of Otago (edited by Stephanie Baum, reviewed by Andrew Zinin). Below the headline is a photo of a person wearing a black face mask, crouched down on an outdoor walkway, leaning against a wall. They are wearing a red sweater and jeans, their head lowered and hand against their face, appearing exhausted or distressed. The background is softly blurred.

New Zealand: The health system is failing Long COVID patients.

"Gaslighting, unmet needs, and a sense of abandonment define many Long COVID patient experiences within Aotearoa New Zealand’s health system, according to findings from a University of Otago–Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka study"

tern @1goodtern There are two main ways to make people feel safe: 1) lie to them that there is no danger 2) take action to reduce the danger Why, in the name of all that is rational, did society choose option 1. 1:05 AM · Nov 5, 2025 · 18K Views

Society only chose option 1 because they were lied to.

“It’s just a cold”
“Kids are fine”
“Herd immunity”
"Only the vulnerable are at risk"

Repeat it enough times and people believe there’s no danger.

Denial is easy. Prevention takes effort.

Notice how every time we describe their actions, they repeat the same words back at us? That’s not argument — that’s projection. It’s how authoritarians hide in plain sight.

Tyrants and their followers invert the truth by calling tyranny freedom, purges justice, and their political enemies oppressors. Deflection is fascism 101.

Name it. Call it out. Every time we expose them, we weaken them.

Watch out the Trump regime may invade Venezuela or attack Nigeria or Iran tonight just to cover up the massive losses MAGA took, democrats swept the elections nationwide.

Major democratic victories tonight

☑️ Mamdani — Mayor of NYC
☑️ Pureval — Mayor of Cincinnati
☑️ Johnson — PSC of Georgia
☑️ Hubbard — PSC of Georgia

Benjamin Netanyahu crying

Benjamin Netanyahu permanently banned from New York City.

Zorhan Mamdani challenges the Trump regime directly during his victory speech: “Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

The Woolcott Review report is a remarkable document. For anyone interested in the complexities of how govts (mis)handle allegations of abuse involving public sector workers, it's a masterclass. #politas
Hope the Tas government acts on its advice, because we will be observing...

Zorhan Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

Taiwan is rolling out Novavax JN.1 for ages 12+ from Nov 12.

Australia needs options too.

It's time.

Vote for Zohran Mamdani 🗳️🇺🇸🍎

Bomb threats to heavily democrat districts sent out on election day, similar incidents targeting democrat prominent polling stations occurred during the 2024 US election. Trump, MAGA, and Israel have been spreading violent rhetoric to discourage or influence voters throughout the campaign.

Zohran Mamdani on the bomb threats sent to polling stations: “These bomb threats are not isolated, they’re the logical outcome of Trump’s fear campaign.”

Dick Cheney, finally back home, in hell. Smiling at camera.

Move over Henry Kissinger and Charlie Kirk, there is a new sheriff in town.

Dick Cheney finally dead at 84 years old, he was a war criminal that helped mastermind the illegal Iraq war that led to more the 5 million dead and millions more displaced worldwide.
