Watching the Oklahoma City documentary on Netflix and the anti- Arab/ Middle Eastern sentiment isn't surprising but I'm genuinely curious if the news clip of the woman saying "they all look alike to me" was a live feed or like a decision to include this in an edited broadcast

the article is about Weah but McKinnie's facial expression really says it all

I am in a News www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news...

Every time I see anything about Grok I just remember Musk, when it was new, at least ten years since anybody but the most cringe person alive said “based” is earnest, tweeted “Grok is based” to try to make people like it

Tragedy/farce with the Colin Powell thing I guess

Of course....

I missed the first day of Comic con (work + didn't feel well) and those heathens (yeah I'm taking about you too, @smartstatistic.bsky.social) betrayed me and met @wilwheaton.net without and Tim Downie without me! I know there's tomorrow but still! I'm glad they had fun,I'm going back to baking.

I don’t know how to say this emphatically enough but DO NOT USE APPS TO NAVIGATE WHEN WALKING, DO NOT EVEN USE A PHONE, I’M SERIOUS, LEARN TO USE A MAP AND COMPASS, MAYBE BUY A GUIDE BOOK TOO BUT DO NOT RELY ON ANYTHING ELECTRONIC. YES, YOU TOO

"Shorten my route"... by your possible death.

I can wait. Azeen Ghorayshi will still be alive in 39 years as will most of the kids whose lives she helped ruin.

*endless screaming*

We are in an information war. Social media platforms are terrain. This isn't hyperbole. They seized Twitter and it has done immeasurable damage. Bluesky is better defended, but they will attempt to seize it as well. Block on sight.

Let's check in and see how summer temperatures have changed during the last 50 years. 🔥🔥🔥

Some freak claimed that not having access to people’s out-of-state abortion records meant she couldn’t report them for “child” abuse because she believes a fetus is a person, and the same judge who tried to ban mifepristone agreed. They’re also making the same claim for trans medical care for minors

What jumped out at me: There's a lot of "former" and "retired" business execs on this letter...and still mostly deafening silence from current corporate leaders

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

BLACK MESA early chapters EAS announcement ass

It's easy to forget now but we had decades of steady advancement on trans rights. The 2016 bathroom bills invited huge backlash! It was only after the media constructed sports and youth medications as 'debates' that opposition moved from the far right to the polite center.

i decided it's mark cuban's fault whenever another hitler makes an account here

it's clear that JD Vance came to bsky *specifically* to be provocative and anti-trans, so reporting him accordingly is called for. But again: don't respond to him, don't threaten him, literally everything you post here is public and will be used against you by the fascists.

Justice Clarence Thomas accusing *anyone* of allowing politics to influence their conclusions is rich.

What is common knowledge in your field but shocks outsiders? Many historians are quite bad at remembering historical dates

New research from MIT found that those who used ChatGPT can’t remember any of the content of their essays. Key takeaway: the product doesn’t suffer, but the process does. And when it comes to essays, the process *is* how they learn. arxiv.org/pdf/2506.088...

I mean....

this motherfucker traveled to one of the most war torn places on earth, spend time in the territory of the genocidal military government, and wrote only about what a tragedy it was that Great Britain no longer has an empire

Fascinating reading stuff like this by right-wing pubs (this one written by a guy who has "two AI girlfriends") because it's the same thing every time: people were mean to me for exhibiting loser behavior, please don't look at the actual usage stats.

Realizing how isolated some of my circles are, bc I truly expected this to be 90% Hannibal and Carmy. With maybe a sprinkling of Liv from iZombie and Owen from Bly Manor.

While I applaud Democrats attempting to do *something,* they should not do *this* unless they're willing to walk right past off-brand Steve Bannon. Standing there helplessly, asking to enter, then getting turned away by a guy in a Hawaiian shirt is not a flex. You look impotent to voters.

Every year that passes, I come to better appreciate just how traumatic members of the US elite find it to be yelled at by progressive young people. It is *vastly* more upsetting to them than being yelled at by reactionaries. They warp their entire identities & ideologies around it!

yes. i think an important distinction in how this went is that tucker didn't seek to *argue with* cruz but to embarrass and humiliate him

Texas is poised to make it easier for residents in the state to own short-barreled shotguns and rifles, rolling back yet another firearm regulation in a state that has experienced some of the deadliest mass shootings in the country in the last decade.

For generations, if you came on a visa and applied for asylum, you would generally not be arrested even if your visa expired during the process. That’s over now. They’re arresting everyone, even people who have done legitimately nothing wrong. What a terrible, awful, inhumane, cruel policy.

Trump Administration Cuts LGBTQ-Specific Care From Suicide Hotline The national LGBTQ+ suicide hotline, run by the Trevor Project, has 30 days before it will shutter, forcing callers to seek out services directly.

I'm baking cupcakes/cakes for my family and friends that I promised them to but couldn't make until now. Would anyone be interested if I post pictures when I'm done? The list is Vanilla cupcakes w/buttercream Lemon cupcakes with lemon curd filling and blueberry-lemon frosting A Ding-Dong Cake 1/2

I forget where I read this, but some observant person said both girl-bossing and the resurgence of the SAHM are the result of the same thing: exhausted women looking to halve their labor. You can either have the high powered career or you can be a mom. Trying to do both will just about kill you
