The Strait of Hormuz is open for transit

Got to keep bringing this up: imagine the reaction of the media (and Republicans) if a Democratic president casually talked about a Russian leader helping an American adversary targeting American troops as if he were subservient to Russia.

I cannot describe properly in words how much it infuriates me to my bone that there were people out there that were allowed to act like Right Wingers, RIGHT WINGERS, were free speech champions

My parents bought their first home in their 20s.

My dad was a car salesman. My mom was a receptionist.

Today, the average first-time homeowner is nearly 40.

That’s not progress.

And it’s why I fought to pass the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act.

I know I’m a goddamn broken record, I really do, but Congress had a way to change that, it worked for decades, and the Supreme Court blew it up in the 1980s in a way that was impossible for Congress to fix. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

I don't think it's good that the president is threatening the Iranian men's national soccer team with violence, tbh.

Maybe it should matter that the President of the United States threatened the lives of the Iranian soccer team, who can say

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.

(🎥 LCI 🇫🇷)

Just the President threatening a soccer team ahead of the World Cup. No big deal.

Iranian school was on U.S. target list, may have been mistaken as military site The strike on an Iranian elementary school killed at least 175, many of them children, raising questions as to whether the military’s use of AI-enabled targeting was a factor.

All this talk of advanced AI targeting and the U.S. still fired a Tomahawk at an elementary school where an outdoor playground has been visible on Google Maps since 2017 www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

finally someone with the gravitas of fdr and churchhill's wartime addresses. we shall fight on the seas, we shall fight on the shores, we shall dance like nobody's watching.

This is gonna go under the radar with free agency going on, but it’s nasty work by the NFL

today at the World Metaphors Classic the leader of the USA didn't bother to find out the details of the situation his team was in and blindly assumed they would win a matchup they ended up losing, jeopardizing their long-term standing for no good reason

We gotta bring back the war on protein!

A DOGE staffer assigned to the National Endowment for the Humanities to flag grants for "DEI" tries to explain what "DEI" is. This deposition is part of a lawsuit by the @acls1919.bsky.social, @historians.org and @modernlanguage.bsky.social.

Claude cannot actually feel, it can't think, it doesn't have opinions, it isn't self aware, it doesn't have context outside the immediate window you are using it with. By asking for its comment on war crimes you are legitimizing the idea that it can be used autonomously or for war at all. Stop it.

ICE locked up a deaf kid without his hearing aids—and wouldn't let him have them back Rep. Eric Swalwell is working to help the family seek humanitarian parole.

“Think about that for a moment: a six-year-old child with a disability suddenly in a different country, separated from the country he has come to know, now surrounded by silence. The horror stories from this White House continue from ICE.”

Reminder: The Trump admin shut down the FREE IRS tax filing tool Direct File.

This program helped make life more affordable by making it easier for families to claim benefits.

This almost literally takes money straight from our pockets and shoves it to tax prep companies.

This legit bums me out. Glad he gets to play back home though, that’s got to be cool for him.

If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

#Florida is currently experiencing its worst drought in 25 years and several cities are considering moratoriums on new development.

This whole table is my Arya prayer list

So, obviously this isn’t true. But if the CEO actually believes this nonsense, it implies he thinks maybe he’s enslaving a sentient being that has the capacity to feel emotional distress. And he hasn’t immediately halted operations to suss out how to resolve that?
