This kinda sounds like you're admitting to being misleading.

This is spreading all over Bluesky today and is wildly misleading--it is from eight months ago and it is in reference to working with NATO allies and arming Ukraine.

Like ever 2 years, straight men find a way to reinvent masculinity with even MORE standards than the ones they already weren’t meeting and then get mad at the rest of us for not coddling them through it.

We need robust regulation around AI. These companies will do unethical stuff until it becomes a PR liability.

But regular people shouldn't be responsible for making these companies behave. It should be our governments.

And there should be meaningful consequences if regulations aren't followed.

Count me in with Katie: Tanking just does not bother me that much.

the fact that everyone had to write them outraged letters screaming "STOP IMPERSONATING ME FOR PROFIT YOU ABSOLUTE GHOULS" somewhat undermines their apology...

but fuck yeah every single one of you who did it. you are the winners. 💓

This is so fucked up.

This email from Elliott Payne sounds like he is fuming with rage

i couldn't resist defector.com/i-will-never...

I would be embarrassed to have written this.

... out of a cannon

cis friends i want you to really understand this horror

imagine if in half of US states if you were in an accident/got sick and had to go to the hospital

the medical professionals there would FORCE THE WRONG HORMONE INTO YOUR BODY, making it change in ways antithetical to who you are

IMAGINE IT

The New York Times Is Mad at Mamdani for Governing Well What a petty hit piece reveals about the media's fucked-up incentives.

A breakdown from @eliasisquith.blog explaining how "the media is structurally pro-Trump."

Who is running this country? This guy has no idea what's going on.

Rebecca Solnit: On Not Meeting Nazis Halfway When Trump won the 2016 election—while losing the popular vote—the New York Times seemed obsessed with running features about what Trump voters were feeling and thinking. These pieces treated them …

Thank you! It was a pleasure to speak my own version of truth to that version of power. And I'd been prepared for questions like that for years.

This interview with the great @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social was a "wow" moment for me. Thanks, New York Times and David Marchese.

I couldn't help noticing the question that seemed the most Times-like to me.

And which Democratic party is this?

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

The Republican Party has been an authoritarian project run by racist internet trolls for ten years now. College Republicans have never known any other version of the Republican Party. This is what they like and what they want.

i'm so sick of the kobe lionization. he was good at basketball. he was also an insanely inefficient chucker that has confirmed examples of abhorrent (and illegal) behavior. it sounds cold and crass but just because he died in a tragic way doesn't mean we need to forget who he was.

Police in Britain Repeatedly Declined to Investigate Epstein. Why?

Exclusive: The Metropolitan Police interviewed Virginia Giuffre 3 times after her lawyers handed them a dossier of evidence saying that she was trafficked to UK by Epstein and Maxwell, and made her have sex with Prince Andrew

But they did not launch an investigation

4th Circuit Rules That States Can Compel Trans Adults To "Appreciate Their Sex" Via Care Bans They ruled that states "encouraging citizens to appreciate their sex" through care bans is a constitutional goal, affirming West Virginia's Medicaid ban for trans adults.

1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit.

An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.

It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling.

Schrödinger's War They can’t agree on whether it’s a war, a mission, regime change, or self-defense. They don’t need to. They just need Congress to stay out.

Today's newsletter: Trump renamed the Department of Defense the Department of War. The website says war dot gov. Pete Hegseth goes by Secretary of War. But they'd like you to know that what's happening in Iran is not a war. It's a limited mission. www.readtpa.com/p/schrodinge...

I think of Star Wars as something kind of like Harry Potter: its success is owed mostly to the creation of an interesting world that people can get invested in, rather than to actually good writing.

I don't go in for most media-bashing on here, but this new thing where Trump calls access reporters during trading hours and gives them the SCOOP that the war's about to end is pretty egregious.
