Attention Goop Employees: We’re Pivoting My Dear Goopers, I have big news. If you’re not currently lounging in one of the office tranquility pods, I’d encourage you to do so. If you prefer...

"Starting next month, Goop will be spinning into a global weapons manufacturing unit, as part of our acquisition by Lockheed Martin."

Native Americans condemn Pentagon move to preserve Wounded Knee medals The National Congress of American Indians strongly condemned on Saturday U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's decision to allow soldiers to keep medals awarded for their roles at the 1890 Battle of Wounded Knee, an event which many historians consider a massacre.

YouTube video by The Interview Mandy Patinkin on Gaza: A Plea to Jews

Kathryn Grody & Mandy Patinkin say what's on my heart every day.

"I ask you Jews everywhere all over the world to spend some time alone & think: Is this acceptable & sustainable? How could it be done to you & your ancestors & you turn around & do it to someone else?" The sound he makes at the end.

Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

The irony here is that this idiotic revisionism is coming directly from the heart of the so-called woke elite: faculty at an Ivy League university. Kinda gives the lie to the whole leftist/Marxists-dominate academia argument.

Is it possible that GOP operatives are the ones spamming me with bazillions of text messages to raise money for dems? I feel like the primary outcome of these campaigns is to piss off supporters of progressive causes.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS…

This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they?

ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants.

How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

@utah.edu is CIS down?

We will not cower, even in the face of Trump’s militarized escalation.

On Saturday, we are going to rise up all across the country in defiance of this administration’s authoritarian agenda.

This just shows the need for humanities… buying into AI hype is an object lesson in their lack of imagination and basic critical thinking skills.

EXTREMELY BAD NEWS for economic research, per former BLS Commissioner @ericagroshen.bsky.social on LinkedIn.

BLS is suspending access to its restricted data "for the forseeable future." Applies to projects through the Federal Statistical Research Data Centers & onsite projects with BLS.

these visuals hardly do it justice, but just staggering to contemplate this scale of destruction. An estimated 60 percent of all buildings destroyed; 90 percent of housing gone.

90 percent of the population -- 1,900,000 people -- displaced

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

BOOM!

He found the shade!

Trickle-down in one graph: golden shower. All rot leads to Reagan.

it would be cool if some members of the mainstream media cared as much about this administration lying about who's running the agency dismantling the federal government as they do about the former president’s age

In today’s “Wait A Damn Minute” we expose the truth about Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”:

I’m your Shadow Press Secretary and here are the facts.

Just checking my notes: so we are giving refugee status to white South Africans, a minority population who own 70% of the land in SA, but we are revoking refugee status from Afghans who assisted us during a 20-year war we started. Cool cool cool.

This. All of this. They are trying to remove whole classes of people from public life. They can’t quite say that they object to having women, Black people, LGBTQIA+ folx in public life so they instead label them “woke” or “DEI.” It’s that simple and they will not stop.
