The government claims Christians are persecuted when they can’t impose their beliefs on others — but when Christians like Rev. Barber pray for justice in the Capitol, they’re arrested. Hey Pam Bondi, we’d like to report some anti-Christian bias.

The government has asked for help reporting anti-Christian bias so please help get the word out and make sure everyone reports this incident to: [email protected]

The fact that they’re tracking autism and not the bird flu automatically tells you they’re operating on eugenics and not actually wanting people to be healthy. They want you sick, disabled, or dead.

No attorney general should ever speak like this. She's Trump's advocate, not the people's lawyer, which is what the AG's job is. Whatever state she is barred in should start disciplinary proceedings immediately. This isn't subtle or arguable, it's wrong.

Pikes Peak has been named “America’s Mountain” as it can be seen for miles when traveling west across the plains. Take a ride up with us to the summit on the Pikes Peak Cog Railway and learn more about the storied history of the mountain. jacobmartellaphotogr... #photography

Fuck this. This is hands down the best Smithsonian Museum. There are definitely parts that are hard to get through, but it's extremely important that we face the hard truths of the past of this country. Erasing history is not something that the good guys do ever.

NEW VIDEO: LeBron is a billionaire, but even he’s out here watching sports on StreamEast. Watching sports was simple. But blackouts (inc. playoffs!), too many apps and rising prices are the tip of the iceberg. New video on why it’s so hard to watch sports: youtu.be/9fgkmIanDkk?...

Escadaria Selarón is a set of colorful stairs covered in tiles and artwork. The stairs were created by Chilean-born artist Jorge Selarón who said it was his tribute to the Brazilian people. #photography

Somewhere in the midst of the javascript frameworks and the nonsense valuations and the shitty AI features and the RTO plans and the godawful union busting, we forgot how much joy there is in making websites. Whatever happens with work from here, we need to get it back.

Standing at the 2,300 foot peak of the Corcovado mountain in Rio de Janeiro, the Christ the Redeemer statue looks over the entire city. It’s become an icon for both the city and Brazil and was voted as one of the New 7 Wonders of the World. #photography

This is obvious, but if people broadly rely on a black box to give them answers that help them understand the world, whoever controls the black box controls those answers and therefore the understanding that comes from them. Openness is safety.

In an executive order, Trump targeted the Smithsonian and the National Museum of African American History & Culture suggesting that it is “divisive” and pedaling “improper ideology.” So, I took a trip back to the museum, and what I saw was a place trying to tell the unvarnished truth about America.

I see this, too. Let me be clear: the "burden on society" starts and ends with a predatory billionaire class that needs to be taught a very difficult lesson in humility. That won't happen until we make it happen Neurodiversity, like all diversity, is a strength, not a weakness. Value humanity.

Did not have "having to track severe weather and tornadoes tonight" on my bingo card. Good news is that the worst of it is still well to the west, but it's going to be a long night.

I’m seeing a lot of people making fun of their incompetence for this, but that’s not what this is. This whole regime is a gang of bullies, headed by a bully, and like all bullies, they’re cowards. Stand up to them, and they whimper away.

Good Friday thought: growing up I always wondered why the crowd demanded the release of Barabbas, an insurrectionist, rather than Jesus. Unfortunately, the last 8+ years have answered my question.

It's OK if you used to love Harry Potter. There are serious problems with the series, AND there are genuinely meaningful and magical things in it that shaped a lot of us. It's OK to mourn it and not think it always sucked. But not a dime to that woman EVER again. You HAVE to love trans people more.

it's hard to find a motivation for DOGE other than 'hatred of the good.' these are bad people fundamentally envious or un-understanding of the idea that you might work or give for others, and attempting to punish it.

Mansfield (TX) friends don't let Mansfield friends vote for Julie Short for mayor. At best she's grasping at straws and misrepresenting data because she can't win in any other way. At worse, it feels there's something else going on.

Trump’s sputtering response to Harvard standing up to him is yet another reason why institutions should refuse to bend the knee. He’s a paper tiger, unable to argue his own case.

Destroy DOGE, undo every bit of its work, and render every DOGE employee unemployable in their professional field for life. End their careers and shame them in every way we can. And make them see that we fixed the government and everything they did was for naught.

Apparently matt couldn't even be bothered to show up to the #wordpress release chat in Slack today as the release lead. It's obvious he doesn't care about the project, only the money.
