Don't miss this landmark ruling of CJEU Court.
It changes the legal landscape of EU, and solidifies LGBTQ+ rights as a core function of EU legislation.
It also forces a legal change in not only Hungary, but also in Poland, Slovakia, etcetera.

EU top court strikes down Hungary’s anti-LGBTQ+ rules Viktor Orbán had banned mentions of homosexuality in media accessible to children and outlawed Pride marches.

This is huge. And it provides a major test for Peter Magyar and whether he will comply with pro LGBTQ decisions from the EU invalidating Hungarian laws.

Just slipped that in at the end, hoping we wouldn’t notice. I wonder if he’s ever talked to Emergency responders in these congested cities about reaching incidents more quickly because they can go in the bus lanes.🤔

"You may also need to recover road capacity
from other purposes to support driving." The Trump administration urges governors and mayors to take away bus lanes, bike lanes and sidewalks to support more driving. No kidding - straight from USDOT head Sean Duffy to every gov and mayor in America

A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek), with the handle @magyarpeterMP. The post reads:
"Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General.
On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation.
If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then — on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office."
At the bottom, the timestamp reads "3:04 AM • Apr 21, 2026" alongside "19.9K Views".

Peter Magyar is not playing around at all. He's going to purge every single remnant of corrupt Orbanism. This is exactly how Dems need to be when they retake power.

The whole web is built on a primary grace: that the people visiting you are trustworthy. It costs a little something for me to serve my webpage to everyone who goes there. When the number of scrapers outnumbers the number of humans by an order of magnitude, this grace is fragile.

I haven't had a long enough breath to talk about how AI is ruining the open web. API after API I used to use is closing - literally because paying the $$$ required to feed these impersonation machines is prohibitive.

The Wetland Project has been my favorite alternate-reality radio experience since it began. Since it only happens once a year, you can’t become accustomed to it. Close your eyes and be washed over by the sonic reality of an isolated bog on Saturna Island!

Palantir manifesto described as ‘ramblings of a supervillain’ amid UK contract fears Alarm caused by posts of Alex Carp, tech firm’s CEO, championing US military dominance and of AI weapons

'The US spy tech company Palantir published a manifesto extolling the benefits of American power and implying some cultures are inferior to others – in what MPs have called “a parody of a RoboCop film” and “the ramblings of a supervillain”.' 1/2

Chicago's Amusement Tax Asks Big Tech to Start Paying Its Fair Share Jack Bandy examines Chicago’s social media tax and how Big Tech is seeking to overturn the city's effort.

Big Tech has long claimed to be “neutral infrastructure,” not a publisher with a viewpoint argues Jack Bandy. Now, facing Chicago’s social media tax, it’s invoking press freedom to avoid paying its fair share.

I spent today at the hospital and didn’t see a single respirator (other than my own).

There were a few people wearing surgical masks.

Signs saying it was a “mask friendly” environment.

No free masks.

No mask mandates.

Tons of coughing & sickness.

Masks belong in healthcare. Period.

With the leak to the NYT of their internal notes to each other, I hope the conservative justices on SCOTUS are currently *very* paranoid about talking to each other. Because at least one of them is (or has staff who is) indiscreet and disloyal.

Keep looking over your shoulders, fascists!

Meta just paid the lowest effective federal tax rate in its history.

Thanks to tax breaks and loopholes, it avoided $13.7B in 2025 federal income taxes.

But now it's planning to lay off 10% of its global workforce (8,000 people) by May 20 — with more job cuts later this year.

Trickle down hoax.

Watched the movie Nuremberg last night, which was really good and a little disappointing, but I’m glad I watched it. The part about how did the Nazis happen?… because good people let it happen matches everything with Trump MAGA ICE now.

John Roberts Is The Activist Judge He Warned Us About Secret memos show the lawyer who cast himself as a champion of judicial restraint became the Supreme Court justice leading the charge to wield unprecedented activist powers to help corporations.

🚨Documents show John Roberts proudly casting himself as a leader of the opposition to “activist” judges.

Now, newly revealed secret memos show he led the charge to wield unprecedented judicial activist power — to make sure corporations would never be forced to reduce pollution.

INVESTIGATION: How the U.S. government ignored warnings & shut down America's helium reserve - just before the Iran War has now cut off foreign helium supplies for everything from medical equipment to computer chips.

Shortages are on the horizon as prices skyrocket.

Republicans tried to push through a late-night vote to extend warrantless spying powers — and it didn’t go through.

Now Congress has bought itself more time to fight over the law that lets the government collect Americans’ data without a warrant.

The fact that is so easily believable is proves the 25th should have been invoked long ago. The members of his canniness and Republican congressional leaders are past criminal levels of negligence as far as I’m concerned. @raskin.house.gov

Too many of our kids are getting killed, because of thoughtless assholes like Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson.

This mass shooting today happened in his own district. He said “thoughts and prayers” but did nothing AGAIN.

Remember this when we can take back the House in November.
