How does anyone think Palantir is anything but evil? Did they need to name the company Sauron to make it clear?

We can’t trust Palantir with our NHS data Is this really the company we should be entrusting with our health service’s digital architecture?

"Palantir is not just a problem of profiteering from our national healthcare system— it's a fundamental threat to the democratic control of our public infrastructure + the privacy of every citizen. By giving our taxes to this company, we are aiding their operations everywhere."

Paula White comparing the president to Jesus was met with applause.

The Pope calling for peace and ending the war was met with condemnation.

Beware of any Christian movement that measures loyalty to God by loyalty to the president.

Contributor: California is now the front line of America’s maternal mortality crisis As patients continue to arrive from states where care is restricted or denied, the strain on California providers and support systems will only grow.

California has become a refuge for reproductive care but is absorbing the consequences as out-of-state patients flee restricted states. The Women’s Reproductive Rights Assistance Project reports that over 42% of patients in 2025 came from states with abortion restrictions.

Yay... ?😅

Palantir's CEO published a manifesto arguing Western tech firms have a "moral debt" to US military dominance, that AI weapons are inevitable, and that "some cultures are dysfunctional." This isn't just a regularly evil tech or defence contractor, it’s a fascist political project.

Still not convinced this isn't a small man in a dog costume.

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're in a CORRIDOR! A room door is open, and we see two crewmen spilling out into the hallway in red and blue uniforms. They are otherwise indecipherable tho because they are entirely enveloped in a big cloud of smoke. It's pouring out all around them and into the hallway area, like there's a Phish concert in there. Closed caption reads, "[COUGHING]"

I had a dream I was drawing thumbnails, and - in the dream - sketched this out and titled it "The Dreamer". That was striking enough that I woke up, sketched out the thumbnail in real life, and then sat on it for like eight years. Until now!

Just when you try to quit drinking..
If it gets ~10k I would also draw the others as cocktails

Hello new followers, my name's Sen and I make comics! If you want to check out Dark Science, my queer cyberpunk series that's sort of "Metropolis + Ghost in the Shell + Discworld", you can read the whole thing here! dresdencodak.com/2010/06/03/d...

The 11 most challenged books of 2025, according to the American Library Association The ALA says 4,235 titles were challenged at U.S. libraries — the second-highest year on record. Forty percent of the challenged works involved LGBTQ+ subjects or the experiences of people of color.

As the editor of a book on this list, allow me to say again that book banning is a catastrophe for freedom of speech in America. There is no silver lining. It's all harm.

You can fight back by calling your reps to demand they vote against HR 7661, which is effectively a national book banning bill.

Average new UK electric car price is now lower than petrol vehicles Autotrader says average EV cost is £785 cheaper, in an important milestone in the move away from fossil fuels

Forget "total cost of ownership." In the UK, the average EV is now cheaper than the average ICE vehicle, up front. Sticker cost.

And of course the savings just keep accumulating after that.

If you are indie author you can absolutely go back and upgrade your backlist later.

Indie authors do it all the time. Publish the best way you can right now and scale up later.

The first panel shows a crow with the title "How to live a good life". The second panel shows a crow cawing at itself in the mirror with the subheading "Make friends". The next panel says "Explore" and shows a crow looking into a commercial waste bin. The next says "Try new things" with a crow eating something vile. The next one says "Be curious" and shows the crow grabbing a hissing cat's tail". The final frame says "Get a hobby" and shows the crow looking closely at a book of matches.
