One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

$11,574 per second.
Thousands of lives lost.
People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Everybody keeps doing this and I’m tired of it
“ Americans have barely/ don’t protest/ don’t understand”
Which Americans you talking to?
Because a lot of us DO . A huge demographic of us did . Just not the ones folks in media were willing to talk to
I need people to understand that Paralympians are just as elite as Olympians.
“Tehran is burning. And smoke has filled the streets. It’s impossible to drive out of the city right now and even with the windows closed, heavy smoke is making its way inside."
Read every word.
The genocidal rage of these emotionally unstable and empty men knows no bounds.
It is absolutely insane that the US appears to have targeted desalination plants first – putting them onto the board. Iran seems to have already retaliated against one in Bahrain. This is one of the most obvious ways this could spiral.
NEW: Watch this report just in from CNN’s Frederik Pleitgen. It is raining oil in Tehran this morning.
A city of 10 million is being actively poisoned.

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

This is why it's been simultaneously terrifying and mundane to be an Autistic (expert pattern recognizing) Gender Studies scholar/professor for the past 20 years of my life. 🫠

David Attenborough [whispering]:
“As the predators close in on their helpless prey, we can only watch in silent horror, for it is not man’s role to interfere in the hierarchy of nature.”
I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed.
Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing ‘reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.
if the US government logs these trees at the rate / quantity they're proposing, we'll lose one of the last old-growth forests. there's no coming back from that. if you have five minutes to leave a comment pushing back against the BLM, please do; there's a guide to that below.

we're all just critters crossing the multi-lane highway of life
Derogatory.
anyone choosing this moment to be all "here's what you get with republicans: bombs in the middle east" needs to grow up rapidly, considering what the last dem admin did in gaza & their current support for trump's actions right now. this is what you get with (wholly bipartisan) american imperialism
The thing is that this isn’t just weakness from Democrats like Schumer, it’s a performance so they can help launder a war they fully support
Now is an amazing time to subscribe to this labeler

When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought back—fast.

WHISTLEBLOWER: ICE cut almost half it's training program, specifically the parts about the Constitution, the US legal system, use of force, proper arrest and detention, and WEAPONS TRAINING.
THAT is why US citizens are being murdered and agents are dropping their guns.
NEW: A hobbyist has created Nearby Glasses, an app that warns you if someone close by is wearing smart glasses. 404 Media spoke to the creator who said he was inspired by our coverage that uncovers how men are wearing Meta's Ray-Bans to covertly film massage parlor workers.

Since this would get released with top billing if it validated their priors, I’m gonna assume it validates mine instead
So, the GOP is betting that rich and powerful people (i.e., those with the resources and incentive to sign up for Precheck/Global Entry) will get so annoyed, having to wait with the regular folk, that they'll lean on Democrats to cave.
Sadly, I suspect it'll work.
