The TrumpRx website is a scam.

It's not making drugs more affordable.

And RFK Jr. just admitted that the Trump admin isn't even using real math to calculate the "savings".

This entire administration is smoke and mirrors.

A 600% reduction would mean the drug company pays you $3k to take it.

Quick and Meaningless Data Collection Help me collect some data to use for student examples! The questions on geographic region and gender will only be used for subsetting the data, not for student analysis. No questions are required -…

I NEED HELP!

Please take this quick, meaningless 19 question survey so I can get data for my students to learn stats!

I did a similar version a few months ago but missed an important question type. Even if you did the old one, please do it again!

Please circulate widely!

“Alligator Alcatraz” Guards Allegedly Beat Prisoners for Requesting Phone Access The ACLU told a judge that guards were obstructing her March order to provide phone access in the jail.

As a result of our lawsuit, guards at "Alligator Alcatraz" are required to allow people detained at the facility to call their lawyers, in accordance with the Constitution.

Yet when our clients asserted their right to access phones, guards brutally beat them. ICE must be held accountable.

Inside Trump’s Effort to “Take Over” the Midterm Elections When Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election, the institutional guardrails of American democracy held. But if faced with the same tests today, those barriers — and people who held the line — would l...

An examination by ProPublica shows how thoroughly and expansively the Trump administration has overhauled the federal government into what some fear is a vehicle for making sure elections go his way.

This meme is just so damn useful.

Glad to see the Target Boycott is trending. We’re urging our members, & our communities to shop local, not Target for Back to School. Target has not supported Minnesota,the place they got their start, so we are shopping elsewhere

We are deciding right now if we are to be a nation of concentration camps and ethnic cleansing. And there is much citizens can do!

One week.

The Delta CEO won't commit to lowering ticket prices if jet fuel prices go down.

When asked if his company would lower prices if fuel costs dropped, he instead said that lower fuel costs would "certainly help us boost our margins this year and clearly into next year as well.”

So I’ve read the typical cat’s purr ranges from 20-27 Hz, or 20-30 beats per second.

Somewhere else I read (Cornell’s cat website maybe) that we humans find that frequency to be restorative.

Few sounds soothe me more.

The FAA’s “Temporary” Flight Restriction for Drones is a Blatant Attempt to Criminalize Filming ICE Legal intern Raj Gambhir was the principal author of this post.The Trump administration has restricted the First Amendment right to record law enforcement by issuing an unprecedented nationwide flight...

The FAA quietly imposed a nationwide drone restriction that prevents filming ICE and other federal agents within half a mile. It’s an attack on the First Amendment.

I know it's a long shot but I really need @jackycoyne.bsky.social to get @rizahmed.bsky.social on #TrackStar

Yes.

Life Hack:

I was on the phone w/ an AI customer service agent that was insisting: (a) it couldn't fix the error the company had made, and (b) no live person could speak w/ me.

I then said I'd file a complaint w/ my state's consumer protection office, and I was connected to a human in <1 minute.

John Oliver (on right) gestures with his hands as he speaks. On left, a ProPublica headline from December 15, 2025 reads: “Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera.” An article excerpt below says: "... turning rows red, yellow or green every few seconds, never asking a single question.”

1/ On yesterday’s @lastweektonight.com about USAID, John Oliver cited several of our investigations.

First up was our reporting about how DOGE operatives had arbitrarily cut aid programs, in some cases by literally clicking through a spreadsheet: propub.li/4cCsSKP

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

tweet from Mark Meador @MeadorFTC on Mar 5 People who argue that age verification requires collecting and retaining massive troves of personal data are not operating in good faith. They're just paid by people who want to prey on your kids.

Trump's FTC Chair posts that people opposing age-verification surveillance are just shills being "being paid by people who want to prey on your kids."

The lengths this administration goes to delegitimize dissent is staggering.

The Rage at OpenAI Has Grown So Immense That There Are Entire Protests Against It Protestors gathered outside OpenAI's headquarters on Tuesday, calling on the public to stop using its AI chatbot.

"What OpenAI is doing in terms of building legal mass surveillance technology for the government... is frankly, insane."

I occasionally see humor posts I made to Usenet via Delphi passed around as memes. Before that I was on WWIVnet and telnetted into MUSHes.

There are still people on Al Gore's internet who remember when it got pictures.

Do not speak to us of the deep magic, witch. We were there when it was written.

Minneapolis video game livestream raises $250K for rent aid during ICE surge Podcasters from MinnMax and Giant Bomb, two video game media outlets, played games for eight hours during their “ICE Out” livestream.

Before the charity stream began, content creators from @minnmax.com and @giantbomb.bsky.social weren't sure what number to aim for — maybe $30,000 or $50,000.

Within 15 minutes, they raised $58,000 for local food pantry VEAP. Within an hour, $100,000.

Best thing I've seen today.

DHS Hunts Down 67-Year-Old U.S. Citizen Who Criticized Them in Email The Department of Homeland Security is using a little-known tool to go after its critics.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

PORTLAND MAYOR WILSON:

“.. To those who continue to work for ICE: Resign. To those who control this facility: Leave. … you have lost all legitimacy and replaced it with shame.”
