Cowards die many times before their deaths,
The valiant never taste of death but once.

Heritage is just cartoonishly evil. Just the worst scum on the face of the planet.

Joyce Carol Oates @Joyce... 17h O So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."

Elon Musk ' @elonmusk X.com Oates is a liar and delights in being mean. Not a good human.

‘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.

Mark Carney’s budget is blind to the real causes of Canada’s problems The prime minister's first budget emphasizes infrastructure and resource extraction but fails to leverage our most significant economic drivers.

Hi Bluesky 👋

Small life update: I’m at the centre of a multimillion dollar lawsuit in Alberta launched by a failed candidate for Jason Kenney’s UCP

It may be the longest and most expensive media trial in Canadian history

I’m ready to go public about it and I want to share more details with you 🧵

THIS IS AMAZING. ALSO WHAT, IF ANYTHING, DID WE FORGET TO RUIN?

Zohran Mamdani was the first mayoral candidate and Democratic official to stand up to the Trump administration over the arrest and disappearance of Mahmoud Khalil, which he saw as a violation of the First Amendment.

I wrote another essay, just out at my newsletter site.

His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:

Happy Friday, my dear friends!

This is my periodic appeal to keep supporting Ukraine 🇺🇦. You can help by:

➖ Talking and posting about Ukraine
➖ Amplifying Ukrainian voices
➖ Advocating for military assistance
➖ Donating, if you can.

Racist, fascist bullshit in Quebec.

“The Dominion Society of Canada celebrated the coverage. Their goal is to normalize the concept of mass deportations of non-Europeans, and Tyrie says he wants to make Conservative Party of Canada leader Pierre Poilievre use their word for it (remigration) by the end of the year.”

Prosecuting the Powerful Historical data shows putting leaders on trial is a healthy democratic practice.

Sarkozy is going to jail but he’s not the first one. In our new dataset we track modern leaders who have been prosecuted by their own states. There are 215 of them. Turns out leader prosecution is a common & healthy practice in democracies. Full access link: foreignpolicy.com/2025/10/28/d...

Always thought it was sad that Ayn Rand—one of the most successful authors of children's fantasy books of all time—had little enough saved in the bank in her old age that she had to rely on public assistance until her death, but I'm glad it was there for her.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

Another egregious use of the notwithstanding clause. The right wing populist governments in this country are a scourge.

It's long past time for state and federal authorities alike to put an end to Stephen Miller's jerkoff fantasy of masked thugs kidnapping people of color off the street with impunity.

Yes, there are Americans who want this. But they are a woefully small minority. Why are we still letting it happen?

Any American medium that fails to cover the largest protests in American history is failing in the basic mission of informing the public about the facts.

A huge landmark in journalism history seems to have come to pass a while ago: when @hcrichardson.bsky.social outstripped the Washington Post in online readership. An old world is dying, a new world is being born [Jeff Bezos is a monster].
