Fooling around with a composite of some of the birds that have posed on the calibrated fence. It’s not perfect but gives an idea of size variation. It’s a wide photo so you may have to click to see all the #birds

People are going to call an Israeli Jew speaking about his own country a self hating antisemite and they'll sound more ridiculous than the people last year who pretended Glazer was denouncing his Jewishness.

“‘No Other Land’ reflects the harsh reality that we have been enduring for decades and still persist as we call on the world to take serious actions to stop the injustice and to stop the ethnic cleansing of Palestinian people.” — Basel Adra while accepting the #Oscar for Documentary Feature Film.

I can’t believe people think it’s funny that JD Vance was trying to suck his own dick on the toilet and he accidentally did a backflip and ended up upside down with his head stuck in the toilet, grow up

Enjoying everyone's dunks on Rahm Emanuel but I have to note, once again, that he is still the undisputed champion of Worst Political Instincts for saying, in 2009 as White House Chief of Staff, "I don't give a fuck about judges." Whoops! Maybe you should've cared about them, Rahm.

scores of pissed off Mormon CIA agents who just got canned are ideologically cross-pollinating with platoons of fired trans FBI agents. we are on the verge of new types of politics our ancestors could only dream about

Americans genuinely do not believe that the rest of the world exists, and are deeply resentful of any attempt to convince them otherwise.

you know, the most meaningful difference between AOC and Schumer / Jeffries / Pelosi / etc. isn't that AOC is more progressive than the others, it's that AOC talks to voters like they're capable of understanding politics if provided with full and accurate information.

America's POTUS historically has never thrown a democratically elected leader of a foreign nation under war under the bus. That's the CIA's job and they try to be quiet about it.

I can't stop laughing at this man I'm sorry. This is the kind of shit the biggest loser in the world would say to their girlfriend about buying her flowers on Valentine's Day once, and he's doing so in an argument that started because he called her a bitch

It's very frustrating to me that "savvy" political coverage does not include the savviness required to point out that the lifelong misogynist who lies all the time might not have been serious about delivering on this proposal.

No capital punishment, ever, for any reason, except for elected officials who are "quietly concerned" or grumbling "behind the scenes" about something they personally have the power to address. The journalists who write these things will receive mercy (banishment, severe disfigurement)

I do feel bad for the lady who thought Trump would make IVF free and then got fired from her public sector job, but since political correctness is now dead, I'm also allowed to say I think she's dumb as bricks.

I don’t think people in other countries know about pep rallies or how deranged they are. At my school they had one where cheerleaders pretended they were going to kiss football players and then blindfolded them and their moms kissed them instead. The idea was that they got horny for their mom

The point of excluding categories of people from the military like this is to send the message that they are unworthy of citizenship, it is pure bigotry and the assumptions behind it are disproven by the honorable service of the people being targeted in the first place bsky.app/profile/bran...

I honestly don’t know why they frame it as if these companies are reluctantly giving up DEI- these companies are disinvesting in DEI because they don’t think the courts or the political system will punish them for discrimination anymore. DEI existed for most as a lawsuit barrier.

The Partition of India displaced 20 million people, killed almost 2 million & created a refugee crisis whose effects are still in play over 70 years later, if you actually think it's a model for anything but massive catastrophe, you should not only not be employed here you should be in a padded cell
