National park to remove photo of enslaved man’s scars The Trump administration is ordering the removal of information on slavery at multiple national parks in an effort to scrub them of β€œcorrosive ideology.”

donald trump and the white nationalists that run his government want you to think that slavery was just fine www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

Hi. Hey. Mike here. When media companies cancel Late Night shows to appease fascist presidents, America fucking ends.

Lakers and Warriors both out, but the Celtics just got eliminated, so everything balances out in my eyes! Thank you Knicks, I couldn't deal if the Celtics won again. I now hope either the Knicks or the Pacers win it all, I don't mind if the chip stays in the East for another year.

GASPARINO: β€œI wish I could tell you Trump outsmarted the world, but that’s not what happened here… Japan, China, others were mass dumping our bonds β€” which means people were losing confidence in the πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ economy.”

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

A lot of people like to dismiss racism as insubstantial to material realities but we’re watching a nation burn trillions of dollars in wealth to entrench a racial system of domination.

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

James Surowiecki figured it out. They just went through Wikipedia and took each country's trade deficit/exports.

I tried it on a few (including NZ) and it matches.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

On today's GameBreaking News, @janochoa.bsky.social and @grubb.wtf discuss the ramifications of the Switch 2 pre-order delay.

I knew this tariff BS would do this. I am SO glad I took the initiative to buy everything I could/wanted before now and got my car repaired to the nines before all of this hit. And I wasn't going to buy a Switch 2 at launch anyway. Time to just hunker down now. πŸ˜–

So yeah, I wasn't planning to get a Switch 2 this year anyway, since I only buy a new Nintendo console when a new mainline Zelda comes out. (Which, given Zelda's release history, will be sometime around 2028 this time, I predict). And at that price ($450)? I'm glad I have that rule, 'cause damn! 🫣

This is also DEFINITELY the last Black Super Bowl halftime show ever.

It’s fitting for it to be Kendrick Lamar to do it.

With the Eagles obliterating the Chiefs, now is a good time to remind everyone that the last time the Eagles won the Super Bowl they refused to go to the White House because of Donald.
