Really thorough and scathing profile by @kimkelly.bsky.social. Worth a read. Especially if you love Greek mythology references like me.
U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement officers deployed to airports could be set to stay there even as TSA workers receive paychecks.

The fact that no one has taken Tiger Woods keys yet is crazy. There is no reason that man should be behind the wheel anymore based on his past behavior.
Please, I am begging people: never again repeat the claim that only two people were killed in the occupation of Minnesota.
That was pretty hilarious. And I knew he would be that way after he said he doesn’t spew his misogynistic shit in front of his mom. I was like oh you talk cash shit but only when Mummy ain’t there??
Just finished “Inside the Manosphere” and wow, what a hard watch.
Takeaways:
-all these influencers have childhood trauma around their fathers that sent them down this path
- it’s all an MLM packaged for men that make creatine a food group
- the documentary could have gone much deeper.
That made me profoundly sad. To me after watching its clear that this entire brand of content appeals to people who have childhood trauma and/or bad/no relationships with their father figures.
I literally just finished it five mins ago.
Have a question: what’s your relationship like with your dad?
These ripped from headlines storylines are retraumatizing me 🥴🥴
Man he’s so good at this
The Jetsons lied to us
Oh we’re straight up in hell. Like ACTUALLY IN HELL. This is so sick

Finally the first image I’ve seen of reporters and him in the room. All the other footage never showed them together for some odd reason
Independence Day (1996) taught me that the president should fight during wartime
It feels a little like late February 2020. North Americans who pay attention to other parts of the world see how much people are suffering and dying, but "Western" parts of the world haven't experienced the big changes to daily life yet and monumental supply shocks, so there's a disconnect.
The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.
A truly extraordinary moment.
We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.
Act like it.
(1) The accused declared, ordered, or otherwise indicated that there shall be no survivors or surrender accepted; (2) The accused thereby intended to threaten an adversary or to conduct hostilities such that there would be no survivors or surrender accepted; (3) It was foreseeable that circumstances would be such that a practicable and reasonable ability to accept surrender would exist; (4) The accused was in a position of effective command or control over the subordinate forces to which the declaration or order was directed; and (5) The conduct took place in the context of and was associated with hostilities.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.

• If there's one thing controversial CBS News editor Bari Weiss has earned praise for it's her hands-on booking of big names for the network. But there's one booking she seems to have blown up: New York mayor Zohran Mamdani, who had been in talks to appear for an interview on CBS News Sunday Morning with Robert Costa. Mamdani's team, I'm told, has long been averse to appearing on CBS given the coverage his campaign got from Weiss's The Free Press, but her recent social media post reacting with a fire emoji to an Iranian activist's diatribe against Mamdani was the "nail in the coffin" for him appearing on the network, two sources with knowledge told me. "Bari and her people have a clear axe to grind for him," said one former CBS producer. (CBS News did not respond to a request for comment.) And the network's turn away from news and toward opinion is proving to be a broader problem. "It's not just Zohran," the source said. "It's really
lol. CBS had been trying to get Zohran Mamdani for an interview, but Bari Weiss' deranged tweeting caused him to turn it down

The details are horrific, and the inhumanity of Netanyahu in proudly letting them go incalculable
Me: *exhausted, bleary-eyed from the day* time to lie down and go to bed
My acid reflux: “waitttt, lemme see something”
And that’s why we haven’t heard shit about this since it happened
thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her mom’s kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol
Tired of the wrong people dying.
After considerable soul-searching, I feel compelled to withdraw from the BAFTA emerging talent judging panel. The organisation's handling of the unfortunate Tourette's N-Word incident last night at the awards was utterly unforgivable. I cannot and will not contribute my time energy and expertise to an organisation that has repeatedly failed to safeguard the dignity of its Black guests, members and the Black creative community. This is particularly unfortunate given that this year's cohort boasts some incredible Black talent, especially one of my favourite shows of 2025 "Just Act Normal". However, when an organisation like BAFTA, with its own long history of systemic racism, refuses to acknowledge the harm inflicted on both the Black and disabled communities and offer an appropriate apology, remaining involved would be tantamount to condoning its behaviour. I hope BAFTA leadership comprehend the damage they and the BBC have caused and take the necessary steps to ensure their production staff are inclusive enough to prevent such an issue in the future. Yours sincerely, Jonte Richardson

Saw them live a few months ago finally. Still excellent
Count on it.
