If you told me this was an Arrested Development clip, I’d believe it.

Letter: Communities nationwide are fighting ICE warehouses. We should fight, too. Letter: We should call ICE's for-profit detention centers what they really are: Concentration camps.

Wait until they hear about Pim Fortuyn. Or maybe they’re on the same ideological path as him.

‘We were terrified they were going to kill us’: fishers who survived US boat strike speak out An Ecuadorian fishing crew describe their ordeal as victims of Trump’s purported war on ‘narcoterrorists’

What the American "drug war" looks like on the ground: Ecuadorian fishermen were attacked in a double drone strike, arrested at gupoint, taken to El Salvador and then finally released.

I bet he’s confusing Switzerland for Sweden

Mangolini has been itching to attack Iran since his first term, and had already invaded Venezuela

Like I keep saying, Netanyahu tried it with every US president because Netanyahu is a bloodthirsty expansionist monster. Mangolini is the only one who eagerly and happily hopped his way into a war.

Not inconsistent at all when you realise that when he says“everybody” he means “everybody who looks like me”

Chef’s kiss.

That’s lovely but I just want to point out that African wild dogs take care of their injured pack members. If they cannot hunt after healing, they stay back as part of the nursery carers.

That’s the best of Florida. Seeing my neighbours take out their chainsaws to clear out the path to a pregnant woman’s driveway so she can get out if she goes into labor.

Also Florida: you live ina city and have chainsaws?

She literally said she couldn’t do it herself because she was practicing having boundaries around money.

Oh yeah, she claimed it was because Palestine was cut off from the fundraising system, but if people would be kind enough to sign up as receivers, they could help transfer money in amounts just below the threshold that triggers investigations.

On top of her encouraging people to become money mules last year. Even after lawyers warned her that was a money laundering tactic.

The correct way to understand this is that people will do basically anything but give up the ability to eat cow (and meat generally)

Some of these people have actually said it’s ok to be scammed if even 5% of the money goes to a Palestinian. So screw the victims of human trafficking who are forced to work in the scam, I guess.

A few thoughts:

1. These London attackers are clearly coordinating with HAYI, which usually breaks the news first or has exclusive footage of the attacks. This isn't the Shiite equivalent of "ISIS-*inspired* terrorism", it's more official than that.

It’s Mourning in America: The President threatened war crimes using his personal blog again today after Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz, making him look weak, dishonest, & ineffectual.

Republicans in Congress keep enabling him, while Democrats keep learning how to be an effective opposition party.

the tech fascists think they are so clever and smart but their entire worldview is just a bunch of stale apologetics for race hatred and fascism

Early reports coming in of another arson attack on a Synagogue in Britain last night - this time Kenton United Synagogue.

This the third attempted firebombing of a Jewish building in London this week.

Molly Shah's terminally gullible stans are now harassing people who said anything negative about her, so that's fun.

Pro tip: You don't get to play the good guys when helping human trafficking organized crime in SE Asia. It's like y'all don't see the kidnapped victims of those rings as human.

The people concern trolling about mRNA vaccine research are trying to derail this kind of treatment

Scams have grown more sophisticated, but people are fighting back Scams have exploded over the last few years. Can countries and companies come together to turn the tables on the scammers?

I’m sharing this article of online scams for no particular reason

And the markets keep falling for it

Wait until you see the 8 minute rant on the “Peruvian viper”

I was posting to Rude Law Dog’s point.

The tech industry cannot keep provoking people by saying "we will take your jobs and replace them with sexually-available fembots for bosses" and not expect that to both define AI, and light the flames of a furious opposition.

Nuance will not cut through this kind of marketing.

Wow. Just wow. “For the next four years the comrade will…”

The bots are now spamming each other. If only they were isolated and we could watch it like an experiment to see what the conversation looks between them looks like.

The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive-because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

Really powerful, hopeful paragraph from the latest article in the Atlantic by @adamserwer.bsky.social
