This triamcinolone acetonide ointment must be from space. Because it's ass steroids!

“Everybody was trying to tell the police, no, no,” Vazquez said. “Those four officers didn’t care. They didn’t ask what was happening, what was the situation.” 12 seconds between getting out of their cars and shooting someone on the other side of a fence and not a danger to them.

these days if you tell me you’re into “wellness” i assume you are too stupid to breathe

Everything sucks, but there's a new episode of the Anne Shirley anime today. Hope it's good.

You can always tell who has worked minimum wage jobs that required cleaning up after asshole customers and who hasn't.

no lies detected. #civilrights

the three of us are having a conversation

Here is an up to date list of Big Law collaborators along with how much in free legal services they have pledged to Trump's causes. Paul Weiss 40M Cadwalader 100M Milbank 100M Skadden Arps 100M Willkie Farr 100M A&O Shearman 125M Kirkland & Ellis 125M Latham & Watkins 125M Simpson Thacher 125M

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Our parents’ generation has the perspective that there are more autistic people in the world now than there were before. The reality is that people diagnosed with autism used to get shoved into mental hospitals and sanitariums, until Ronald Reagan slashed the public health budget.

New neat video from Robslondon youtu.be/M-sW8KEOSgI?...

Adobe deleting their first BlueSky post because they realize that the artist community pretty much universally hates them now is extremely funny

Ai is not convenience. It's willingly reliquishinging your ablitiy of learning and thinking for your self. It's fucking gross, stop using it.

More journalists need to talk about this the way Japanese articles do

This account is always so full of clothes I'd wear if I could.

Perfect forecast 📻 #ghibli #kiki #art (✨drawn by a human✨)

I will never understand cruises. Pay 10 times the money for a hotel with tiny rooms that might sink and has norovirus as a salad dressing

oh you mean like every other time they've tried this? everywhere else in the world?

How you feeling today, me? (Presses play on boombox) (Catchy double harmonic minor scale saxophone riff plays) Baby, I'm worthless

Jesse Singal, a transphobic bigot who has dedicated a large portion of his career to spreading misinformation about LGBTQ+ people, is baffled that John Oliver would do a single episode debunking his life's work

Most of my trans friends who are US citizens don't currently have SAVE Act compliant documentation to demonstrate citizenship. If you are really too inept to understand why this is a mass disenfranchisement of minorities, you should resign.

Let's speak plainly about what is happening. The First Amendment has been terminated for immigrants.

My son and daughter got social Security payments because their mother died at 35. Jen earned that money and the family needed that little extra boost each month having lost a breadwinner. These people trying to shame recipients are monstrous.

This is great. It also means Trump will ignore it, and he and the GOP in Congress are going to expand and pack the Court. Is it "Justice Kid Rock" or just "Justice Rock"? I guess we'll find out.

Hey, go do this, please. I have health insurance through the ACA, and if this rule went into effect, it would mean that while I'd still be paying a ridiculous amount in premiums, the plans I'd be able to get wouldn't actually cover my health needs.

Compassion- empathy is not a weakness; it's a strength. It's what makes us human. It's what gives life meaning. Anyone who tries to tell you otherwise is a POS who should not be taken seriously, and should probably be protested, and jeered, and made fun of when they play video games badly in public.

Jesus Christ. This is also the administration that wants to end whatever tiny bit of accountability cops have already. Just layer upon layer of incompetence and maliciousness.

“you know what this country needs right now? bank runs”

“Mommy, no. Mommy.” Daughter captures the moment masked ICE agents smash the window of her mother's car in order to take her into custody. The government claims the 52-year old seamstress is an associate of the MS-13 gang. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/lo...

Biden didn't do shit for my student loan debt. Also, imagine having savings. Must be nice.

This story gets so much worse. The trans woman who she refused to fence only finished in 24th place. Stephanie, the forfeiter, also beat *multiple* cis men in a regional match just one week earlier! And conservatives just paid her $5k for her kneel. Why is nobody talking about this?

The SEC is the only agency that could get to the bottom of who did these trades — and they would have to want to know.

"suicidal empathy" here simply means "white people caring about nonwhite people," Musk is a vanilla apartheid guy trying to rephrase old bigotry
