Once upon a time a bunch of farmers in the Middle East came to an agreement allowing some slinky local creatures to do pest control for their crop storage.

Reading batman analysis always just kinda makes me sigh and stare into the middle distance while thinking about wandering off into the woods.

β€œNobody came”: Hill Country flooding survivors recount anguish, neglect during emotional hearing Residents told state lawmakers about what they’ve lost and the hardships they’re experiencing almost a month after the July 4 disaster devastated the region.

The MAGA-led response to the Texas floods is going great - so great that locals are still finding rotting human body parts in the debris that no one in government appears to care about picking up:

Chris Cuomo saw a video where AOC says "bouncy little fun bags" with 'made with AI' watermarked on it and thought he had a breaking story

Today we learned Andrew Cuomo is directly coordinating with Donald Trump, even as this President sends masked agents to rip our neighbors off the streets and guts the social services so many New Yorkers rely on.

It’s disqualifying and a betrayal of our city.

Chris Cuomo posting a deepfake of AOC the same week that Jim Acosta β€œinterviews” a deepfake of a school shooting victim are both harbingers of how traditional media power players will help usher in the worst of the AI slop era

I mean, yes they should... he's one of the few votes I've made that I actively regret. But I don't know what that has to do with the linked post in particular.

The reason you don't give ground on trans rights - beyond the simple morality of it being wrong to do so - is because you don't give ground on rights period, and if you're willing to let it slide for one marginalized group it means everyone else is just a matter of price

On one hand, cool. On the other I'm confused as to why it matters. Who cares what college age people are doing, or if they have a friend (or "good friend") over?

Free Tampons Are Great, But What We Really Need Is Menstrual Justice This Women's History Month, let's make real change by dismantling the systems of oppression that hold menstruators back.

#Op-Ed: "At its core, menstrual freedom demands that we dismantle systems of oppression that uphold menstrual injustice.... It calls for an end to the shame that perpetuates silence and exclusion."

A panel from today's page of ATOMIC ROBO AND THE PERIL OF PROMETHEUS in which the surviving billionaires defend their actions.

Dr. Dormer says, "You were going to cost us millions!"

While Weston says, "Forcing us to sell some of our stocks!"

And Zebos finishes with, "Leaving us ruined!"

Okay, fine, it was attempted murder that resulted in the death of a co-conspirator instead, BUT at least they had a really good and totally relatable reason for it! www.atomic-robo.com/atomicrobo/1...
