it’s a great day for transphobes to eat shit
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
Did I just argue with a joke? Part of a Bluesky educational series
Man, when you compare the bravery of every day Minnesotans to the overpaid cops it’s astounding

Vikings: You give us Aiyuk, we’ll give you a kick in the nuts, and we’ll call it even!
27 years since the Columbine High School massacre.
27 years of failing to protect our kids.
27 years without common-sense gun laws.
I watched it as a student. Now it’s only gotten worse for our kids.
We need an assault weapons ban.
FUCK IT, WE'LL DO IT DEAD
In the throes of President Trump’s mass deportation campaign, immigration enforcement embeds within colleges, with little to no community oversight, legal transparency, or guardrails, @julialuz.bsky.social reports. As more colleges enter into partnerships with ICE & CBP, students are fighting back.

OR judge blast HHS Secy Kennedy for “wanton disregard” for the law and "cruelty" in restricting funding for kids' GAC adding “unserious leaders are unsafe.” He has prohibiting fed govt from superseding medical groups' Standards of Care.
JK Rowling’s support of transphobia has been absolutely catastrophic for the entire world. She funded a far right movement, tested, weaponized it—and it is a cancer eating away at multiple societies. She normalized a lying narrative about people that will plague future generations. She is a curse.
I can think of a lot of more accurate and less flattering terms for dudes who travel to other countries to trap foreign women in subservient relationships than “passport bros”
Unhappy to report the phishing one is quickly becoming a real problem now. Why go to the trouble of social engineering when people will just give up their ID, financial info, biometrics, etc. to an AV portal? There's no standards so how can you differentiate a fake one from a real one?
A video captures Gaza's transformation: from bustling streets to war-torn ruins. Gaza City was once the largest and most vibrant urban center in the Gaza Strip, home to more than 700,000 people before October 2023.
Obama and Mamdani telling a story to children. They have their hands raised and they look surprised,
"And then all the right-wingers heads exploded like BOOM!"
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.
I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.
Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement
A screenshot of a white-on-black terminal depicting a 19x19 go board in ascii graphics, with empty grid intersections as periods, and black and white as Os and #s
It’s absolutely incredible that one of the largest Japanese-run Go servers, which has been running since 1992, is still accessed entirely via Telnet. And while most players use GUI clients that use Telnet under the hood, you can still connect manually and get ASCII graphics streamed to you
My family of 4 bikes downtown regularly… from South Minneapolis.
I’m glad the city I live in is working to meet resident needs.
Turning the tables: why isn’t Eden Prairie building out protected bikelanes or better public transit for my Minneapolis family of 4? Don’t they want us to visit? ☺️
An advocate to end forced prison labor hopes a recent court ruling will finally stop Colorado prisons from sending people to solitary confinement for refusing to work. But, she cautions, “there’s going to have to be a lot more pushing.”
Learn whatever you want about "law," it doesn't matter because GOP Justices blew up the entire process of deciding cases based on chats with rich friends and stuff they watched on TV. That was the entire basis on which SCOTUS switched to the shadow docket.
We need to talk more about St. Paul's gang problem
Over just five days, the justices had decided the issue. Even as they debated the Obama plan’s possible burden on the power industry, in the entire chain of correspondence obtained by The Times, not a single justice, conservative or liberal, mentioned the dangers of a warming planet as one of the possible harms the court should consider.
Another data point in “originalism is a fraud.” So much for the law is the law we can’t think about the impact. They rail against “results oriented judging” in public but when their corporate clients make requests they know exactly what to do. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...
Great, shocking reporting on the origins of the Supreme Court maneuver that has enabled Trump to impose his agenda without full-blown legal review. Roberts resented the Obama admin’s EPA and wanted quick protection for oil companies.
so basically we’re right back where we were a week ago, except a bunch of trump officials and their friends are now a couple billion dollars richer from betting market crime
The man was a punchline until he started pushing Birtherism and immediately got a meeting with Mitt Romney for an endorsement, it’s only been growing more ridiculous since then
Ok so they talked about how the plan would change the energy industry and be a burden on these companies but no one-not even once- mentioned the existential threat posed by warming climate and why that may also pose a “burden?”
Who speaks for the fucking trees, my friends? Not SCOTUS, apparently.
LOL this dude went to Tiffin Columbian
i would say, though, a very dangerous lane is opening here with openly white supremacist candidates running against unpopular things that even Democrats are somehow too timid to oppose
