Every few years, we sign up for yet another platform just to keep in touch with our friends. Private platforms have locked users in for too long, causing a lack of innovation & competition in social media. Bluesky aims to fundamentally change this. Live in 20 min with @jay.bsky.team:

Ghost Fishing Ghost fishing is a sad reality of the fishing industry, where abandoned, lost or discarded fishing gear continues to fish. You can find this sketch, lovingly polished, in the book Big Ideas Little Pictures. sketchplanations.com/big-ideas-li...

Mundus sine Caesaribus

It's only Tuesday and Elon Musk's companies are under fire. From beefing with the Polish minister over Starlink in Ukraine to Tesla's slump, let's get into it. First, on the X outage: Musk blamed IP addresses in the "Ukraine area” as the source of the attack. Experts say that’s not how it works.

Posted by @ianbremmer.com on another platform: “Mexico president Sheinbaum with 85% approval, strongest leader of a major democracy. Hell of a turnout in Mexico City today.”

X, formerly Twitter, was experiencing intermittent outages on Monday, mostly on its app, according to Downdetector.

Twitter/X is currently down for many users.

Regarding #Whitelotus3

Where can I do feature requests?

Check it out, it's the assholes who won't look at yardcam footage of your bike getting stolen in 4k and follow its airtag to its exact location to retrieve it because they have "more important" things to do

Can't wait to see the next episode of #WhiteLotus3 🍿

Perfect meme doesn’t exi….🤣🎯

Gulf of SpaceX Debris ... and waste, fraud, and abuse.

It’s Tony not Toly 😅

Awwwww, the Canadian response to getting ratfucked by Dipshit Donny is disproportionate and very unfair to red state booze peddlers. Thoughts and prayers 😂 bbc.com/news/article...

So much for that experiment in El Salvador about replacing fiat currency with Bitcoin. But I’m guessing this won’t get a lot of coverage from the cryptobros and other libertarian dipshits. www.economist.com/finance-and-...

Canada haalt alle Amerikaanse drank uit de schappen als reactie op Trumps bezopen importtarieven

European here. Morning Europe! If you, like me, can't stand the thought of listening to putin's puppet's SOTU speach, then rather watch some truth. Bernie cares about the sane Americans. #SOTU #Trump #EU #Speech #Economics #socialwelfare

Estrategas aconselham os democratas a “fazerem-se de mortos”. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Jasmine Crockett e Chris Murphy rejeitam recuo estratégico. Bernie Sanders prega no Trumpistão.

Trump's big dumb speech tonight? A bunch of Democrats are skipping it to spend time with voters, expose his lies in real-time, or just avoid the stench of authoritarianism.

State of the Union (Even if it's not technically a #SOTU ) #TrumpIsARussianAsset For @contrariannews.org

Maybe she suspects Musk is also going to address Congress 😂

A sobering — and critical — 4 minutes from my colleagues in Pennsylvania about the hollowing out of the National Weather Service and its parent organization, NOAA. Massive thanks to Marissa Ferger and @roblydick.bsky.social. "...the NWS costs each American about a penny a day."

And it wasn't the only effigy mocking the U.S. president at the Düsseldorf parade.

🚨 NEW: The Trump admin has informed #NOAA that two buildings that are critical for #weather forecasting will have their leases canceled. If this comes to pass, it's a really big deal. Includes weather fcst nerve center in College Park, Md.: www.axios.com/2025/03/03/d...

Noors brandstofbedrijf weigert na 'shitshow' Trump nog langer te leveren aan Amerikaanse troepen

Alma Mustafić is op 10 december – de Internationale Dag van de Rechten van de Mens – aangesteld als mensenrechtenambassadeur in Utrecht. Het is voor het eerst dat de gemeente zoiets doet. ‘Deze benoeming voelt als een erkenning voor wat ik aan het doen ben.'

This is Gunnar Gran, CEO of Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway’s largest fuel companies. His company has announced that they will stop providing fuel to the U.S. until Trump supports Ukraine.

Starmer to Zelenskyy: You are very very welcome here in Downing Street. As you heard from the cheers outside, you have full backing across the United Kingdom.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

Ideally 👊🏾

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.
