With sadness and prayers. RIP Helen. dailynous.com/2025/06/20/h...

international humanitarian law is, broadly, an attempt to leave total war in the past where it belongs along with a pile of other never-agains.

there are things he's doing that literally every Democrat could learn from—his use of multilingual campaigning is brilliant

you know what, I’m impressed, we really did mostly do the right thing here and it doesn’t seem to have resulted in any sort of sustained harassment campaign because he just got blocked to oblivion great work, well done everyone

Caltrain up 50% YoY

Does anyone know someone who a) lives in or around in Takoma Park and B) is interested in palentology

amazingly, "why are you so interested in all that logistics stuff? isn't that a lib thing?" is pretty much the official position of the republican party

I will always find American “Israel right or wrong” types so much more annoying than even the worst Israelis because shitty Israelis are at least coming to their terrible opinions after living through repeated bombings whereas Americans are just defending a fantasy of a Jewish Disneyland

Donald Trump just unilaterally bombed Iran. A masked gang is terrorizing our streets. America has rapidly devolved into an authoritarian state. That's why, today, The Onion has purchased a full page ad in today's New York Times with a simple plea to Congress: Sit back and do absolutely nothing.

There is a very serious problem amongst a significant chunk of the left of center (both liberals and leftists) where they treat a lot of the right-coded topics like military theory/history and weapons capabilities basically the same way right wingers treat sex ed

can ppl stop screaming about WW3 the thing about world wars is to start one you need countries to go to war that have friends who also want to go to war for their buddy, not 2 countries led by guys whose own wives refuse to talk to them

This is all excellent advice! I'd add: 1. The lower the humidity in your immediate vicinity, the more efficiently sweating will cool you. If you're not in an arid area/desert and you have a dehumidifier, running it will help a little.

Everyone that was involved should be arrested, they are openly admitting that they kept this plan secret from everyone so that they could do it and go against America's laws and Congress. www.youtube.com/live/Z8_F7r2...

really great how swiftly Trump & co have made the U.S. a shithole country that can't even suspend the routine for five minutes for international visitors, like plenty of repressive regimes are able to pull off all the time

It's kind of amazing how quickly the Unitary Executive turned into exactly the kind of monstrous 'elective monarchy' (ie what we now call a 'caudillo') the Founders worried the Presidency might become if unchecked. The greatest empirically falsified fuckup in US jurisprudence since Dred Scott.

Saving this for the next time someone claims that “MeToo went too far”

ha ha ha ha ha this sucks

I think this is the right take. From outside of New York, I know it seems NYC is a hotbed of democratic liberalism. But actual New York politics are almost the reverse: the New York Democratic Party leadership is united mainly by trying to keep the left from power.

So this is where the money of those music fans went, instead of to musicians. An AI military startup- yikes. This morning the world has got a whole load worse in a lot of ways and it is on tech bros. Tech bros *want* war because they can earn money. Boycott them.
