‼ Emergency Appeal ‼ After 1.5 years of war and shattered hopes for peace, we are once again caught in a cycle of suffering—enduring death, displacement, hunger, and fear. You are our only hope… Please don’t leave my family alone in this crisis. 💔 Donate & share my story 🙏🫂 gofund.me/d14cbe76

Israel bombed a hospital this Passover

The right for autistic people with intellectual disabilities (and other disabled people) to live outside of institutions was only granted by the US Supreme Court in 1999.

When in the 1930s, the British empire shipped Palestinian prisoners to the Seychelles and Palestinians would lodge habeas corpus claims, Britain would also declare that Seychelles was a sovereign nation with its own laws and Britain had nothing to do with theprisoners.

I have never seen an apology from anyone who doubted the "first" hospital bombing story

"Even worse, when you Google one of these slop-squatted package names, you’ll often get an AI-generated summary from Google itself confidently praising the package, saying it’s useful, stable, well-maintained. But it’s just parroting the package’s own README, no skepticism, no context." Omfg

God damn I wish the USA allowed us to buy Chinese electric cars because the Xiaomi is cute as hell and way better priced than the ugly shitbox that is Tesla. Look at this thing. It's gorgeous. Starting price is $30K.

Morning. Song,,🐦🐦

hmm maybe the Democrats should have run this guy in 2020

A Helping Hand 🐁

It's very easy to not use AI image generators. Less than zero effort required. There's no reason to help normalise it at all.

One of the worst parts of this era is the number of people who are like “it’s a bad opinion, but I have to debate it because the news told me to.”

I'm halfway through this article & like (and agree with) the points made thus far. But I want to have an aside on how people uncritically use the term "foundation models" & "reasoning," when it is very likely that the models memorized all these benchmarks. 🧵 prospect.org/power/2025-0...

incredible sentence alert

if you are looking for a politics that fights for the conditions in which families can flourish you are looking for feminism. if you have ended up in “pro-natalism” you have taken several wrong turns and are surrounded by racists and eugenicists. turn back immediately and reflect on what happened

Pictured: the actual beliefs of these types:

Honestly the fact that neither Shapiro or Hagen mention eugenics in this is downright shameful. These people are eugenicists! You have multiple clips in here of them going over Eugenics 101!

The left is forever critiqued for two things: remembering things and being correct too soon

Can somebody besides a bunch of random people on Bluesky please help these folks in Gaza out?

The new McCarthyism. Violent censorship of left-wing political speech in the name of national interest. And like the Red Scare, these actions were enabled by many Democrats who thought they could do reasonable, managed suppression, until the right inevitably took the reins.

I really don't think Hegseth has ever even played a video game about war

anyone who's ever run a community above a certain size can tell you that you either ban like 20 assholes or lose 20,000 normal people. allowing 'different voices' is a losing strategy.

you ever think about how the nation went to war with itself and then just decided to not actually address anything that just happened and how that led to jim crow and now, after the nation once again refused to acknowledge covid and the climate, we have whatever the fuck this is?

Ex-Biden State Department official says even the Israeli military expected the US to only let them bomb Gaza for weeks, rather than unconditionally for a year and a half:

This was one of the biggest takeaways in my book. A lot of people advancing fascism the fastest are liberals who are focused on being “fair” or “neutral” when tasked with carrying out conservatives’ work. The right radicalizes as many people at work as they do via podcasts or social media.

Funny how every time there's a shitty garbage bill that pushes us deeper into the waters of fascism it always has juuuust enough democratic support to pass. Wild how that works. Really makes you think.

thought crimes are now illegal in the united states. it’s truly baffling that their anyone was ever convinced by the right being pro “free speech”. anyone who gave any credence to that argument is a rube

The best British panel show is Would I Lie to You? and it's not even close.

I just came across this - it's out 28th April. It features 37 writers from Gaza, sharing their stories of life during the current war. I know it will not be an easy read. But a rare chance for the outside world to hear from Gazans themselves, not talk *about* them. www.penguin.sg/book/letters...

we have to make expanding the supreme court a litmus test in the dem presidential primary season, theres no other choice

few things have displayed the banality of evil to me so cogently as the existence of a “Border Security Expo”

"I am not a very bright person"

Alright, I think people knew of the tariff pause and traded it beforehand. You can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those calls are up 2100% in one hour.

I've been enjoying Ludwig on BritBox recently. It could be better, but for what it is, it's pretty good!
