protest sign that says "IF ONLY CHILDREN WERE PROTECTED LIKE THE," followed by the words "EPSTEIN FILES" written in much large text

#protestsigns

Congratulations!!!

Very big indictment of Ohio that this buffoon rose all the way to U.S. Senator by never facing a real election.

JFC. These people.

A tweet from Pope Leo XIV that reads: “When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.”

Apparently the Pope has read Baudrillard.

Michigan knew the assignment.

A stray orange cat in Thailand moved into a bar. The owners got him a QR code so that customers can buy him food and cat treats.

Thanks to @samuelhayimbrody.bsky.social for reposting this. Took a look at the Palantir founder's book and, what do you know, first search term I tried turned up a chapter complaining about how kids aren't taught the right things about ancient Greece and Rome anymore

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

Stop it!

Way to go, Curtis! So happy you took the opportunity to respond. I know how busy you are, but this is important and really well said! Thank you!

Perfect. No notes. 😂

Those US-Iran negotiations in a nutshell:

Iran sent 4 PhDs to Islamabad.

The US sent a real estate developer, a son-in-law, a lawyer and a general.

An mRNA treatment for PANCREATIC CANCER was in trials, among many other uses. Choosing to end this research is choosing to sentence millions to an early, painful death

👀 this is fantastic #Pope promotion from the Chicago #WhiteSox and a pretty poignant statement for the time we are in.

Looks like she was on a trial run for the presidential election. I'm sad that Aftab is going down this route. I used to really like him!

And my people in Cincinnati said: "nah. we're good!"

BREAKING: JURY FINDS PROFESSOR CARAVELLO NOT GUILTY!

While some justice was restored by the jury’s decision, the beatings, the surveillance, and the trauma that John and others across the state and nation have had to endure cannot be ignored. #ICEOUT

The sad/funny thing is that OTR is the historically Black neighborhood downtown. I thought it was ridiculous they would take her there, but the turn out makes it perfect.

Hahahahaha! I'll ask around, but everyone I know thought it was pathetic. I used to really like Aftab, but he hooked up with Buttigieg's adviser and has been a completely different politician.

OMG--I live in Cincinnati and was invited to this event and told them I was a Democrat for 40 years and you couldn't pay me to see Slotkin. Then, that I was unsubscribing from Pureval's list if that's his version of being a Democrat. These people have absolutely no idea.

I have seen one good example of this plate

Thank you for sharing; did not know about this!

"To put it bluntly, an X post today receives less than 3% of the views a single tweet delivered seven years ago."
If you think it is necessary to be on Twitter to communicate your fact-based worldview, the reality is that worldview is being smothered.

AI slop 'men can survive on their own', and a dude is somehow eating potato chips by the lake watching TV in the wilderness'; 'women can't survive without men' and a woman is cowering with her child, flame everywhere

I understand why men like to tell themselves this but honestly - how set that village on fire?

Statistically, who?!?
