I don't know any headline is bad enough to break the fever, but Elon Musk's Ketamine Dealer Is Gutting the Department of Education might do the trick

Mind-boggling wreckage. Among the lifesaving programs now disrupted by Elon’s attack on @USAID: phase 1 trials for a possible HIV vaccine.

Thousands in Germany have taken the streets protest the rise of the Elon Musk and Kremlin supported neo-Nazi party AfD, ahead of the general election.

The North Remembers ❤️‍🩹

You will never succeed at fighting right wing disinfo with facts. Right wingers believe the first thing they hear & they'll believe it for life. They'll fight to the death about some inconsequential bullshit they just heard 5 seconds ago. You beat them by calling them weird assholes & isolating them

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change. Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk: www.noaa.gov/noaa-wildfir...

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️

This never has worked - not once. Once you concede the the far right's framing on immigration, you're dead, because you can never serve up as remedies as vile or extreme as they can, but you're also saying they have the right idea. And no one will vote for that dead dog in the middle of the road.

Meta is fundamentally evil company that deserves to be wiped off the face of the planet.

it genuinely sucks that basically nothing on the internet works well anymore. search? barely works. social media? filled with garbage engagement-bait designed to game the algorithm. news websites? pages that refresh at random or so covered in video ads that it’s impossible to read stories

I fucking hope!! In the meantime, your uncle's (and, potentially, local politician's) daily injection of black-tar disinformation is about to be supercharged!!

I talked to 10 current and former Meta employees about the company's surrender to the right on speech issues. All were upset. One person called the changes "a precursor to genocide" www.platformer.news/meta-fact-ch...

Bezos is paying the Trumps $40 million (not a typo) to make a documentary about Melania that no one asked for or wants, and is certain to obscure any interesting fact—like her initial immigration status, whether her marriage is a sham, all Trump’s affairs—a viewer might want. Seems like... Bribery?

one of the most depressing realizations in politics is the day you understand that a lot of people would legitimately prefer to spend more money to make sure nobody “undeserving” gets a benefit than to make it accessible to everyone

The CEO of UnitedHealth Group is fighting to raise flagging morale in the company’s ranks after one of his executives was assassinated—but he’s also quietly been touting 2024 as a record year financially for the company, according to a new report.

"The year of Luigi" Sticker spotted in Toronto, Canada

How could someone with 34 felonies become president?

GLP-1 hormone research goes back to the 1970's, its testing to treat diabetes goes back to 1993, phase II clinical trials for Ozempic go back to 2008. Your desire to see others punished for losing weight 'the wrong way' is ignorant, mean spirited, and most importantly a tired & lousy joke

An article like this isn’t meeting the moment. Any journalist or news org knows framing is key, and a headline like this isn’t surfacing what’s most important about this interview and the more outrageous things Poilievre says are buried pretty far down the article. He keeps getting off easy.

Massive new report from Human Rights Watch finds Israel intentionally deprived Palestinian civilians in Gaza of adequate access to water since October 2023. Like Amnesty, says Israel’s crimes are acts of genocide. www.hrw.org/news/2024/12...

god please let the AI bubble burst soon, i know it's going to take half the economy with it i'm just sick of every tech product i use begging me to try their shitty fucking AI content generation

It's not about celebrating murder. It's not about the absence of societal decency or morality. It's about loss of faith. People are losing faith in the rule of law. In its ability to hold the rich and powerful accountable. Keep gaslighting them at your own peril.

Brian Thompson would still be alive today if he were in jail where he belonged.

One AR15 could get that gun type off the streets forever.

Dear media. Luigi was in pain. His mother was in pain. The insurance company denied their claims. He got very, very angry at someone who had to know eventually, someone would snap, and he ended that CEO. Unalived. Gone. That's the story. Fuck the video game manifesto bullshit, seriously. Grow up.

Living for the Ben Shapiro fans tearing him apart for his attempt to turn the CEO assassination into a left vs. right issue. We have been divided by politics so that we don’t see that we are united by class. People are getting wise.

Pennsylvania Governor, Josh Shapiro talking about Luigi Mangione: "In America, we do not kill people in cold blood to resolve policy differences or express a viewpoint." Also Josh Shapiro :

In case anyone had doubts about how heavy handed the review bombing of the acolyte was… Skeleton Crew has 500+ ratings on rotten tomatoes. By this point the acolyte had 10,000+ 20x the amount. #RenewTheAcolyte #SaveTheAcolyte #TheAcolyte #StarWars

People need to stop licking the boots of CEOs and start supporting workers. #canadapost #cupw #bargaining Full video link ⬆️

Workers ✅

just putting this out there because the bots and whatever designed to fabricate anti-labour consensus are everywhere blabing nonstop FUCK YEAH CANADA POST FUCKING KICK THE GOV'T'S ASS Y'ALL DESERVE WAY MORE PAY AND DAYS OFF AND LIGHTER AVG LOADS AND CLIMATE CHANGE SAFETY REGS

It does not matter if the Canada Post strike is the fault of the Liberal Party of Canada. They are going to be blamed for it at a time when Trudeau is deeply unpopular. The union and employer are not going to get a deal done on their own. Intervene and fire the execs. #CanadaPostStrike #CdnPoli

All Canada Post workers deserve good pay and benefits. The government is allowing remote communities to suffer, so they can erode good CUPW jobs. Solidarity forever ✊🏻 #cdnnews www.cbc.ca/news/indigen...

friendly reminder that CUPW workers initially proposed rolling strikes to minimize negative impact on canadians and small businesses that rely on canada post.

Solidarity with Postal Workers ✊🏽

There have been 5 mass shootings in America since United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson was killed. But, please, let's continue to only talk about him.
