The White House is completely silent as BBC confirms a consistent pattern of massive financial spikes occurring just minutes before Donald Trump makes market moving announcements.
The administration is facing severe allegations of illegally profiteering off inside knowledge.
Ten years ago today, I stepped into an eating disorder treatment center for the first time. At the time, I didn’t care if I lived to be 30, and now at 31, I am happier than I ever let myself imagine I could be back then. My life is so rich and full of love, friendship, and purpose. I am so grateful.
We are looking at a painting of St Liphardus - a 6th-century lawyer, hermit and abbot in Meung-sur-Loire near Orléans, France. He is wearing bishops clothing including a surplus and mitre and is holding a crook. On a lead is a small knee high green and blue dragon.
We’re very sorry sir but you cannot bring your emotional support dragon in here.

Would prfer to see “competent Starmer” and “fuck it, let’s try to get back into the EU Starmer” TBH.
Ossoff: "How does American politics really work? It's coin operated. Money goes in, favors come out. It's been running on secret money, corporate money, billionaire money ... all of this gave rise to a depraved president who exploits this rot to empower and enrich himself"
LOL.
A photo of a rosy veincap growing from a mossy log. The mushroom’s cap is pink with a wrinkled texture. It has a drop of blood red liquid at its base.
Behold the rosy veincap! This species, which is considered inedible, is the only fungus in its taxon. It has a wide range & can be spotted worldwide, including in parts of N. America, Africa, Europe, & Asia. Have you ever seen one?

Christian Nationalism is a Cult of Convenience
I was once a militant Jewish atheist.
Then I mellowed into ‘I don’t understand how intelligent people can believe any of this, but some do, so live and let live.’ Jewish atheist.
But now, seeing what the Trump Regime is doing I’m an ‘outraged on behalf of Christianity’ Jewish atheist.
without context, I though this was about a dog…..
“Feud with the Pope” is BACK as a likely Wikipedia section heading after a 400-year gap.
Today is the 2 year anniversary of when I met the Ravens. They just checked me out from a distance then! Here is some of my fav footage: them courting, feeding each other, barrel rolling and some of their vocalisations. They are the most amazing birds and I am so lucky to have them!
Idk who did this comic but it's hilarious
As @goodlawproject.org have pointed out, among many others, Palantir is a company inextricably linked to the Health Secretary, Wes Streeting, and the Labour government as a whole. When they come out with scary shit like this it is time to cut ties, fast.

Meet the capuchinbird (Perissocephalus tricolor), native to the northeastern part of South America.
They're a large passerine bird with a head that resembles that of a vulture, in spite of not being closely related.
But let's take a minute to talk about Capuchin friars...

Trump’s “complicated relationship with the Bible” is a lot like my complicated relationship with Charlize Theron
An American doctor once said at a seminar that the difference between the US and UK attitudes to death is that in the US you fight with all possible resources to stay alive whereas in UK death is what happens at the end of your life.
Now realise same is true of retirement: see RBG, Biden, Trump.
Here’s the director of the NIH explicitly espousing populism over expertise as the means of determining priorities for federally science funding by leaning into the stupidest possible examples: ivermectin as cancer therapy .
Jesus to Trump: Relax, breathe deeply. This won’t take long.
