First light was at 6:50am today!!!!!!!!!!!!! Waking up in complete darkness is amazing because it's now light until the arbitrary hour of 7pm!!!!!!!!

IT'S FINE, YOU CAN HAVE IT, I DON'T WANT IT. ONE LESS HOUR TO BE SAD ANYWAY.

I honestly cannot believe people/bots are pulling out their uncommitted memes right now.

I'm so tired of hiding from this cat because I want water

JFC, watching Tehran burn alongside CNN's convenient graphic about the rising cost of gas, what is wrong with all of us.

They attacked the burn treatment center in Tehran before unleashing the fires of hell on the city. They are truly the epitome of all evil in this world x.com/UnboundedVoi...

Uploading Pirated Books via BitTorrent Qualifies as Fair Use, Meta Argues * TorrentFreak In an ongoing lawsuit, Meta now argues that uploading pirated books to strangers via BitTorrent qualifies as fair use.

In 2013 Aaron Swartz committed suicide for facing 35 years in prison for mass downloading scientific articles.

13 years later, Meta is almost getting away with an infraction orders of magnitude larger.

The law didn't change.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez:

You may have heard that Spain is alone. They’re the same people who said that when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed.

We are not alone — we are the first. Those who will end up alone are the ones defending the indefensible.

toad the wet sprocket was just gin blossoms under a pseudonym, it's the same thing bsky.app/profile/pppi...

important thing to understand about rock in the pre-limp bizkit 90s is that there were 7 songs: smells like teen spirit, evenflow, mr jones, and 4 gin blossoms songs that all sounded exactly alike bsky.app/profile/eeee...

i've noted before that every generation of white people gets a song that drives them insane ("don't stop believing," "creep," "mr brightside," etc) and i think that awful radiohead song making it instead of one of those gin blossoms songs was a real inflection point. won't be taking questions

as is their natural diet

Congressional Dems are in a tough spot. On one hand, they could gain incredible advantage in the upcoming midterms by vigorously denouncing Trump's reckless war. On the other hand, they like it.

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

"A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers ... that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was 'anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,'"

Yes! Total agree. I watched Derry Girls straight through right after I watched HTGTHFB and another delight!

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

This massacre wasn't constitutional!!!

US-Israeli strike on girls' school kills at least 85 students, Iran's judiciary says At least 85 students have been killed in US-Israeli strikes that hit an Iranian girls' school in Hormozgan province, Iran's judiciary said on Saturday. Washington has not commented on the reported str...

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

Please - PLEASE - do not take this to imply that a football tournament is somehow in the top 250 most important aspects today.

Simply that the US has been given a pass in the past and it is time to treat us as the hostile and unsafe country that it is.

Oh fuck off

For the first time in Gallup history —

More Americans sympathize with Palestinians in the “Middle East Situation” than with Israelis.

41% Palestinians (+8)
36% Israelis (-10)

Democrats: Palestinians +48
Independents: Palestinians +11
Ages 18-34: Palestinians +30
Ages 35-54: Palestinians +18

This is what I need cis folks to understand.

It's been a decade.

Imagine living TEN FUCKING YEARS watching as a blatant, artificial campaign to erase your personhood, your identity and your safety chugs along, increasing in power every single day, and most people don't care or dismiss it
