I think I saw this after the Cave Rescue stuff (also terrible), but yeah, we were being told and it's telling who chose not to listen.

Worth blocking this person and/or adding them to your block lists. Not content with shitty Ukraine takes, their feeds are full of some vile anti-semitism too so I'd avoid looking at that.

Anyone who does this is a fucking scab www.niemanlab.org/2025/02/meet...

I think we're onto something, just needs a little more workshopping: 'I feel like the death of media literacy directly led to americas current fascism. Matrix, American Beauty, Office Space, Fight Club. All not about what the right wing says they're about.'

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

Good morning to this man, and this man only #bbcqt

Proud to be one of the 350 rabbis signing this statement — an ad in the NYT today and a declaration of our values. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... For more—and to sign— go to saynotoethniccleansing.org

BREAKING On Monday, Popular Information broke the news that the NIH had frozen virtually all grant funding in violation of 2 federal court orders On Wednesday, NIH leadership distributed a memo, acknowledging that its funding freeze was illegal and directing staff to resume issuing grants.

If you use Gen AI to manufacture images you are not a progressive

Elon Musk has reportedly spent $40M on a series of Super Bowl ads that will air tonight attacking USAID's "wasteful spending." Please help counter this by telling people that USAID has, already.. 1. Purchased HIV treatment from U.S. pharma companies to keep 1M pp alive for 1 year.

I have another one: Your 30s are for unlearning all the conformity you picked up in your teens and 20s and returning to the weirdo kid you once were, except now feral and with a bank account and potentially a driver's license. The world is your feral, weirdo oyster

CHLOE ZHAO IS GIVING US MILF BUFFY????????????????????? WE GET A SLAYER KICKING ASS OVER THE AGE OF FORTY WITHOUT BEING POISONED BY THE WHEDON GAZE???????????? oh I am ACTIVATED

Just a reminder that Musk couldn’t get a top level security clearance. And he was under investigation for violating the terms of the clearance he did have. Now he has your Social Security number, your tax returns, and is unilaterally deciding who the government does and does not pay.

Most ridiculous part of this for me, is that this specific thing already happened to US lawyers! Like, in 2023, right at the start of it all: www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-u...

hi Adam, Catbus here have Dems done anything about this besides vote to confirm a parade of manifestly unqualified cabinet appointments and post about tomato prices? just curious!

“Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic,” they said. “That means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice and a third, a fourth. Then what happens?”

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

maybe there was actually a pretty good reason for the 14th amendment to have banned insurrectionists who tried to overthrow the government from serving in government and the decision to just decide it was a dead letter and ignore it was a horrible mistake?

Anyone getting or renewing a passport in the US: 'the agency issuing passports is...choosing not to issue them for people who have a gender marker X or are changing their gender; ...also allegedly confiscating all of the legal documents related to the passport application.' www.askamanager.org

Has RFK Jr always sounded this way? Have I never heard him speak before?

But I did get distinctions on the huge biology unit! And now I am 4 for 4! :D

I’m not resharing that clickbait NYT opinion piece about AI, but LOL @ “enhance individual empowerment” because how do you measure that? That’s just words! AI optimism is just techbro Goop lmao

so hey, not to be That Guy, but remember how SFF fans called for a boycott of Chengdu Worldcon on the basis of the CCP’s actions in Xinjiang and China potentially not being safe for certain authors? are we going to have a similar discussion about Seattle Worldcon given the circumstances, or -?

Beyond this bit being passed around, which is worth sharing for the main points, do click through and read the whole thing. It's worth it. harpers.org/archive/1941...

For all of those who have posted my cartoon with my signature cut off, here is the original.

1 and 7 for sure. And I think 3 with a cheese toastie.

This is perfect explanation

Never seen such important asterisks...

There's another name for what they're building for people who have not committed crimes.

To understand this extremist approach to *legal* immigrants: 1. Birthright citizenship EO tries to deny citizenship to children of LEGAL migrants⬇️ 2. Invasion EO defines "unlawfully" present migrants to include people in USA who completed forms and were authorized by US Government⬇️ #Immigration

BREAKING: 18 states led by NJ, as well as DC and SF, sue Trump over his birthright citizenship order. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I go away to run a wonderful social event for local creatives and come back to this absolute shitshow. Should have stayed at the bar.

When Musk denies that he did a big ol Nazi salute during the inauguration, remember this, from Jean-Paul Sartre, 1944.

Creating a whole scene isn’t really minor, especially when it was creating work an artist could’ve provided for them, probably at a not-astronomical cost. Indie filmmakers know that when you don’t have the money for something, you don’t put it in the movie.

Sorta pitch-perfect Bidenism: take a high-profile Trump stunt, turn it into bipartisan law in the name of national security, defend it to the hilt until queasily attempting to walk it back last minute, then let Trump reverse his original position in a way that is both popular and corrupt

Suckerberg spent millions on lobbying efforts to get TikTok banned. Now it’s coming back on Day One of Trump 2.0 even though Meta just went full MAGA. Another reminder that Trump will burn you every single time.

Still completely surreal to me that Google chose to light its search engine on fire

And that's 4 Uni offers!* Plus being 2 for 2 on the very needed distinctions. Have resigned myself to not-distinctions on that huge biology unit, will just have to knock everything else out of the park *(No response from Edinburgh yet) #nursesky

This is a beautiful tribute.

Neil Gaiman's "apology" is so gross. This passage sounds at first blush like self-reflection, but if you read it closely, it's a standard rape myth: That women make up rape stories to punish men for not calling them back. journal.neilgaiman.com/2025/01/brea...

Biology Assignment is submitted! Very nervy about it. I need about 70% Distinctions across all of my units so I don't have a whole lot of wiggle room... wish me luck! #nursesky

And we have arrived at 3 Uni offers and my 4th interview. Uni of Edinburgh is still a hold out. But none of this will matter if I can't get this Biology Assignment finished for Tuesday 😭 #nursesky

I know we all have disaster fatigue, but the reason why historic LA fires get so much coverage is because there are more people in greater LA county than in *most US states*

@rozc.bsky.social MICHAEL SHEEEEEN!
