The number of crimes against humanity this administration is committing is truly horrific.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

how the hell are we going to explain to future generations the amount of death and destruction that came about because men thought the chatbot program they were using had a little guy inside

Incredibly angry about this every day.

The people who pick on trans kids are not only disgusting freaks who want to inspect children's genitals, they're also miserable bullies who break the rules of decency laid down by every measurement of morality.

What a privilege to be slaughtered from above by clumsy killer computers, will the dead be given medals of honour?

I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

In all seriousness, and to state the continuingly obvious, what a set of cruel people running this government.

I literally just saw "The Shield of the Americas" as Noem's new demoted purview. Makes me think of the horror that was "Wonder Woman 1984." Wonder if Kristi will be fighting Cheetah Girl.

A war that isn't a war, documented with videos that may or may not be real, funded by elected leaders who are neither for nor against it, is the most dystopian thing that's happened in my lifetime

No Help and Few Options for Travelers Stranded by Mideast Conflict

One woman who called the State Department helpline looking for help said they told her to "stop ranting and raving" and hung up on her.

Another woman said they asked her how to spell Oman.

Voting to allow unrestricted war powers for this illegal war is the height or moral cowardice.

The UN refugee agency says about 100,000 people fled Tehran in the first 2 days of the war.

Around 2000 vehicles per day have been leaving the city, mostly heading north.

So far, no increase in people crossing international borders has been reported. (AP)

As a Northeasterner I love Dunkin'-- also because Howard Zinn once told a group of us at an event that he loved Dunkin'.

I miss Howard Zinn.
