A large white waterfowl with orange feet stands in front of a door. On the door is a cardboard sign secured with tape that reads, "DO NOT LET THE DUCK IN." Adding insult to injury, I think the duck might be a goose.

Whatever you do,

The nonstop grift the Trump family is running on taxpayers is just extraordinary.

It’s National Pet Day

So please enjoy this video of Xavier Bacerra with a puppy.

I love my city, but our officials' attitudes on mass transit are so frustrating.
We do not claim Tim Houston. No relation!

Aerial view of enormous crowd. Haven’t managed to source picture credit. Will post when I do

This is the massive turnout for last night’s “anti regime” concert in Heroes Square, Budapest, ahead of tomorrow’s crucial Hungarian elections. Tens of thousands chanted “Russians go home”. #Orban

Yes. That word is "Houston."

Adds to other conservative losses on school boards tonight.

Fuck yes.

Newly Obtained Video of Minneapolis Shooting Undermines ICE Account

ICE agents shot a Venezuelan immigrant and then lied profusely about almost every aspect of what had happened. Newly released video outs their lies.

Russia kills innocent people, and the response is to ask Ukraine to ease off refineries.

Where the fuck are the organisations that should be calling this out?

Kherson. 10:00 am.

Russian shelling killed an elderly woman and injured women aged 79, 44, and 86.

Press gaggle this morning at Mission Control in Houston #Artemis2

Perfect no notes

It’s almost like we told Marjorie Taylor Greene this would happen.

I have never seen a parody of American chickenhawk mentality that went as far as this. An entire political class screaming and shitting themselves because the ‘allies' they threatened to invade won’t take on 100% of the effort of a war they started for no reason.

A pox on "working-class white voters."

Press Release | March 31, 2026 CENTCOM Refutes Media Claims of U.S. Strikes in Lamerd, Iran USCENTCOM TAMPA, Fla. — U.S. Central Command Spokesperson U.S. Navy Capt. Tim Hawkins provided the following statement: Several media outlets recently reported accusations of U.S. forces striking a sports hall and residential area in the city of Lamerd, Iran, on Feb. 28. After looking into the reports, U.S. Central Command has confirmed the accusations are false. U.S. forces did not launch any strikes at any time into the city of Lamerd or anywhere within 30 miles during the opening day of Operation Epic Fury. Furthermore, video footage circulated by media outlets alleging U.S. involvement does not show a Precision Strike Missile (PrSM). A PrSM is 13 feet in length. The munition depicted in the video appears to be twice as long, consistent with the dimensions and silhouette of an Iranian Hoveyzeh cruise missile. U.S. forces do not target civilians, unlike the Iranian regime which has attacked civilian locations in neighboring countries more than 300 times.

Experts dispute US account of deadly Iran sports hall strike in Lamerd Merlyn Thomas,BBC Verify correspondent ,Shayan Sardarizadeh,Senior Journalist, BBC VerifyandSarah Jalali "Multiple weapons experts have disputed a US claim that Iran may have been responsible for a deadly strike on the town of Lamerd on the first day of the war. Six experts - who examined footage of the strike and all commented independently - contested the US suggestion that it was an Iranian missile, citing the missile's visual features, the way it exploded, its trajectory and the number of strikes in the area as the basis for their analysis."

First shoe to drop

no way of knowing whether Cecilia Wang did this intentionally, but the argument she presented yesterday was strikingly similar to counsel for Wong Kim Ark.

counsel for WKA: birthright citizenship is already the law, don’t adopt some new weird theory.

Wang: follow WKA, not whatever “domicile” is

And the Senator whose bill this was? lol. Wait for it.

Trump criticizes European allies for not helping fix the damage his war against Iran has caused

It’s actually possible to write headlines that don’t obscure who did what. Thanks, AP.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“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.
