Reposting to tag this for the #SciArt feed because I forgot yesterday and I think this is maybe the most sci I have ever art

WCK's #ChefsForJamaica teams are going door to door to serve meals to families impacted by Hurricane Melissa. In Bluefields & Brighton the devastation is clear, with families sheltering in damaged homes.
We're cooking comforting meals to provide a sense of normalcy as communities begin to rebuild.

I didn't get fooled by the fake Sean Duffy quote, but many did—and I can't blame them for it

Why?

Because surely you've noticed that members of the Trump administration say shit this stupid every single day?

Distinguishing yesterday's incomprehensibly stupid shit from today's fake quote is *work*

50 year mortgage is so crazy. to put it in perspective, 2016 was 50 years ago

This handsome Cooper’s hawk was perched high atop a tree in Wickham Park in Melbourne, Fla. this morning. These hawks feed mainly on other birds and most likely was hunting for prey. It didn’t seem to be too concerned about my presence. #Birding

Why Does Schumer Keep Trying to Cave? - The American Prospect Most commentators, including me, concluded that the Tuesday election victory saved Democrats from capitulating to Republican demands to pass a simple continuing resolution to re-open the government, i...

Reporting from @ddayen.bsky.social says Schumer almost orchestrated a team of Democrats to concede to Republicans without any hard commitments. Then his caucus, including some members of a supposed working group, balked.

‘You Are All Terrorists’: Four Months in a Salvadoran Prison

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.

The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.

But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

"These breaks come in addition to the roughly $4 trillion package of tax cuts that President Trump signed into law in July..."

Never let capitalists tell you they’re against redistribution of wealth

They only say that because they believe all wealth is already theirs and everyone else is wrongfully keeping them from accessing it

I recall the orange convicted felon once saying people would stand in long lines begging for food if Kamala Harris became President.

Now in 2025 people are seen in Cleveland and other cities standing in long lines for food due to his cruelty.

Endless projection. I hate him.

Every one of Elon’s trillion dollars is coming from tax payers.

You want to see how they treat disabled people???
As the parent of an autistic adult son, this scream is pure terror...
He has no idea what is going on, and he is operating on pure adrenaline...
Is that what Homeland Security, Border Patrol and ICE were designed for???

Mother of Houston autistic teen in immigration custody still unable to see son Attorneys have joined an effort to help a Houston mother reunite with her son, a teenager with autism who has been in immigration custody for weeks.

Lastly there’s Emmanuel Garcia, a 15 year old autistic boy who went missing a month ago.

Houston PD had his mother’s missing persons report, but chose to call ICE.

He’s been in federal custody ever since, and his mother has not been allowed to see him

There’s also Quinn Harberl, a blind protester in Portland who they dragged by his feet.

Multiple agents grabbed the 4 foot 6 man and dragged him, nearly smashing his head into the ground

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”

He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care

This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person

They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

an arc where the former governor of NY loses increasingly inconsequential elections until the series finale is him trying to run for senior class president at a local high school and getting his ass kicked by some 17 year olds.

men would rather amass an incomprehensible fortune, use it to purchase the public square and turn it into a personal soapbox, use THAT to train and display some janky-ass language model, and then ask it to recreate some shallow simulacrum of a loving and supportive relationship, than go to therapy

How the shutdown relates to autocracy. For the tyrant Congress and Parliament are expendable. I am the only one that matters Trump tells us. We deserve good governance and leaders who care about our welfare.

Not in OUR lifetimes. Some things of our American heritage are lost forever behind FOTUS ‪trump‬ administration stupidity, ignorance, hate and greed.

We are never going to recover financially from this administration are we?

Not in OUR lifetimes. Some things of our American heritage are lost forever behind FOTUS ‪trump‬ administration stupidity, ignorance, hate and greed.

no it can't, you're just describing phrenology, a white supremacist pseudoscience

Well, tens of millions of Americans are going hungry and tens of millions of Americans are losing their health care, but it's all been worth it to ensure transgender citizens can't get passports.

Friendly reminder: Antifa isn't some shadowy organization—it's a mindset against fascism. And Trump is a fascist. #Antifa

I know a lot of people have been wondering when business leaders would step in to stop Trump from wrecking the economy but it feels like they closely align and identify with the guy.

I didn't think you were saying "go back," but I think some people who don't want Dems to retaliate do.

American politics has many crappy and unfair elements. The existence of the Senate, for example, is dirty politics — an unfair rule that isn't any fairer for being old.

Mike Johnson is obstructing the US Constitution. President Lyndon Johnson was sworn in by Sarah Hughes, a US District Court Judge for Northern District of Texas. President Calvin Coolidge was sworn in by his own father – a notary public and justice of the peace.

Swear in Adelita Grijalva. Now.
