There will be untold death and damage to human health for years to come from this. Not to mention how this will cause mass death of migratory birds and other wildlife. But y’all are upset about your 401ks. Unbelievable.

I don’t care about the price of oil, I care that Iranians are being poisoned with toxic fumes. What the fuck is wrong with us?

Venezuelan Oil Brought to the U.S. Would Be Refined in Black Gulf Communities Communities in Texas and Louisiana say U.S. control of Venezuela's heavy crude will worsen "environmental racism" along the Gulf.

"Venezuela's oil is 'among the dirtiest oils [..] when it comes to global warming.'"

"For Beard's home and dozens of other Black communities along the Gulf Coast in Louisiana and Texas, 'that's going to be more pollution and cancer.'"

The fact that RFK Jr. and Trump are recommending the American public increase their meat and butter consumption is going to turn me from a friendly vegan into a militant one.

Every year people joke about not knowing when Hanukkah is. It's 25 Kislev. Hope this helps.

Brooklyn Leader Rabbi Moishe Indig Set to Endorse Zoran Mamdani for NYC Mayor | Williamsburg 365

The Hasidic Jewish Community Council of Williamsburg is endorsing @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social today 🗽💞

Honestly happy (and slightly surprised of myself) to say: I am once again proud of the neighborhood I was raised in, the Hasidic community in Williamsburg!

Last night I saw TV On the Radio, a band I’ve loved since high school and there were all these random Phish fans. I myself a Phish fan remembered that Phish covered Golden Age and I guess they must have gotten a chunk of their fan base into TVOTR.

When you devote your life to the message that empathy is evil and gun deaths are an acceptable price to pay for gun rights, you shape the world with your words. Maybe Charlie Kirk didn’t expect to be a victim of his own worldbuilding, but his death is consistent with the world he helped create.

When Trump renamed the Department of Defense to Department of War, I did not balk at all. Actually, my first reaction was a sigh of relief. I thought “well at least he didn’t go full Orwell and name it the Department of Peace.”

So she went to Trump’s inauguration and she is lecturing us on resisting fascist politics toward disabled people? OK.

Most vegans aren’t handwringing about indigenous farming practices, but it’s always people consuming factory farmed meat that are like “but what about indigenous people!” Dawg you are not doing indigenous practices you are going to Trader Joe’s.

@grok medically speaking, how likely is this to be actual fentanyl exposure versus the officer having a panic attack due to thinking she'd been exposed?

Grok v @grok
Medically, it's far more likely a panic attack from perceived exposure than actual fentanyl toxicity.
Experts (e.g., Dr. Ryan Marino, ACMT) confirm no verified overdoses from casual skin contact or inhalation-fentanyl doesn't absorb that way quickly. Symptoms like sudden collapse match anxiety, not opioid effects (drowsiness, slowed breathing). Narcan helps but isn't needed here.

Came on Bluesky to confirm if others felt the earthquake in New York City since I no longer can rely on our post-DOGE defunded government institutions for accurate information.

ah yes stop and frisk, which was ruled unconstitutional and thus not "perfectly legal," would have for sure prevented the nevada resident from bringing his south carolina manufactured ar-15 into manhattan and the senator from louisiana is for sure in a position to decide for the residents of nyc

I don’t know why in the post Covid era year of our lord 2025 that people do not wear KN95 masks in festival porta potties. It makes it an actually tolerable experience.

The crazy thing about Ozzy Osbourne is that he was the Prince of Darkness and a progenitor of heavy metal but also a wholesome family man on a reality TV show where he couldn’t work a DVD player like every other boomer.

Feels like ranked choice was absolutely decisive in this race—not because of the vote count, but because of how it changed the incentives from zero-sum to cooperapetitive. It allowed a fractured left field to align organically through co-endorsements instead of falling into a circular firing squad.

So I just want to be clear that the gentile President's anti-immigrant goons illegally assaulted and kidnapped the leading Jewish candidate for Mayor in New York City for walking into a federal building
