Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

Quite breathtaking story - military grade drones at Dublin airport which flew on the path Zelensky's plane took. The drones reached the flight path of his plane exactly the time it should have been there, but just missed it because Zelensky arrived ahead of schedule:

“When participants used ChatGPT to draft essays, brain scans revealed a 47% drop in neural connectivity across regions associated with memory, language, & critical reasoning.

Their brains worked less, but they felt just as engaged—a kind of metacognitive mirage.”🧪

I've gotten connected to a few communities now, so I'll ask the local group about this. <3

What a tremendous idea, thank you!!

Say what you will about Biden, but I haven’t heard a peep from him since he left. The Clintons need to follow suit. Turn the page.

In @hcrichardson.bsky.social Letter this morning, she referred to the billionaires profiting off 47's administration as "the Epstein class" and I think we should all RUN with this.

Not just billionaires, but Epstein-adjacent. On his level. Filthy like he was. Yes. This is the way.

Okay @erinbiba.bsky.social it’s time for my second-most anticipated annual thread: Cats in Christmas Trees (and Battling Menorahs). Starting off strong with Donut.

To me, Christmas isn't about perfection or consumerism. It's about love and togetherness. It's about challenging Krampus to a tickle fight. It's about riding the yule moose into the sunset. It's about inserting cranberries into the Peppermint Man's feeding eye.

…okay.

I literally have an ache in my mouth and I’m still like, eh, I’ll be okay 🫣

Oh dog I feel this and I have an appt on Friday I’ve been contemplating canceling because 😖

Thank you for the signal boost!

Re-upping this OR asking if any #fiberartists know of a group on Ravelry for this ask? Seeking a BLIND knitter for an interview, and I keep finding sighted people speaking over them... 🙄

4 panel comic Panel 1: Red Guy looking way way too happy yells “Hey Guys! Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?” Blue Guy next to him calmly says “Shhh” Panel 2: Blue Guy tenderly puts his arms around Red Guy and says “You don’t have to do this” Panel 3: Blue Guy still holds Red Guy tightly and repeats “You don’t have to do this every year”. Red Guy begins to break. Panel 4: Red Guy dissolves into Blue Guy’s embrace, sobbing. He finally feels the weight of Christmas Discourse lifting from his shoulders. He is finally free.

i’m setting you free. i’m releasing you from the discourse

Fantastic read!

Thoughtfully designed to help you get in your Steps™️

This is ABSOLUTELY amazing. Also appreciate the trap doors in the front porch, or excuse me, the "master" room.

Friends, do I know anyone (or friend of yours) who could offer me detailed info on knitting when blind? I'm particularly looking for those who were born blind & knit, but certainly appreciate any perspective! (I imagine rule #1 is Be Very Organized.) Looking to interview, thanks!

Gilded Age political cartoon titled "the protectors of our industries" A mass of workers strain under the weight of supporting a boat containing rich top-hatted monocle wearing capitalists sitting atop huge sacks of cash

"Strong floor, no ceiling" is very literally the basis of like every Gilded Age political cartoon

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

I just want to re-boost, because I’m the ugliness of generative AI, it’s easy to forget that there are legitimate uses that were ethically modeled —and this is one:

A kitchen counter with a waffle iron, plate of cornbread stuffing, package of turkey skin and a bowl with turkey and mashed potatoes.

The waffled skin and cornbread as the outer layers of a colorful turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce sandwich.

Side view to show the layers and highlight the crispy turkey skin crust.

Once a year I get to make the greatest sandwich from Thanksgiving leftovers.

Turkey skin on the waffle iron, cover with leftover stuffing. Cook until all the steam is gone. Top with turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes & cranberry sauce and smash it down.

Once a year. Worth it. 😋

My public service announcement for today is that America’s Test Kitchen, which is infinitely better then NYTimes Cooking, has introduced a new gift link option that has no limit on how many you can share and each link lasts 30 days.

DOGE was not a money-saving effort. It was an effort to chase down and prove right-wing conspiracy theories. They went after USAID to prove conspiracy theories about foreign aid. Then they went after SSA to, again, pursue conspiracy theories about Dems paying "illegals" to vote. 1/2

No pundit is doing more work today to launder attacks on public health than Rachael Bedard, who has constructed a parallel world where vaccine hesitancy is best understood as a rational response to elitism; money and social media algorithms don’t exist to her www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/o...
