Homepage of the @miamiherald.com with story by @jkbjournalist.bsky.social that mentions rape in the first paragraph. See, it's not so fucking hard. www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

going to hand it to the author and the San Francisco Chronicle for getting right into it from the jump www.sfchronicle.com/politics/art...

Senator @fetterman.senate.gov - Dan Patrick still owes your favorite charity for reporting a Republican voter fraud a couple of elections ago, and now Trump's offering $1million. Want to take him up on that?

If you dig into the various apologies, the story is "We were invited for a serious policy discussion about immigration and then were socially pressured into the prayer, which we also didn't realize would be photographed." Which, I can see how it happens, but also, WHY DO PEOPLE TRUST THIS ADMIN?

Attn: USPS changes mean your ballot may not be postmarked the same day you mail it. Don’t wait until Election Day! Deadlines vary by state. Some require ballots to ARRIVE by Election Day, not just be postmarked.

NOW THAT, is a campaign slogan! Trump: We're making a frickin' fortune

Family farmers are getting squeezed while corporate middlemen take a bigger cut of your grocery bill. In the 1970s, cattle ranchers could receive 60–70¢ of every dollar spent on beef. Today, my family is lucky to get 20¢.

But the AK Supreme Court already weighed in. Rs filed a lawsuit before the primary to kick the second Dan off and they said NOPE!

A potential new data center in West Virginia is “almost certain to kill” 1.2 acres of American Chestnuts that have thus far managed to survive the chestnut blight and produce chestnuts, according to the American Chestnut Foundation. wvpublic.org/story/energy...

He didn't really think much of anything. Thinking isn't really this sort of voter's thing. Which is why he gets his political information from YouTube.

Ok. Slight changes to blocking rules. Anyone posting about stones being moved, or referring to Stonehenge whilst posting pictures of Avebury, or calling it Stone Henge will get a dad joke a day for the next 6 months

In just five days, Uganda vaccinated 8.3 million children against measles and rubella. The nationwide drive, which ended on 5 October, covered every child aged nine months to five years, whatever their vaccine history. The Cooperator buff.ly/7VnZOYR #ShareGoodNewsToo

If you would like to vote early in person in California, today you can start doing that! Go vote! This is a totally a PSA and not me trying to reclaim the Most Early Voters By District crown from District 77 (I’m coming for you, 77, just you wait)

Context: On 6/6/14, President Obama & Putin were both in France to commemorate the 70th anniversary of D-Day. This tense conversation occured on the sidelines of a leaders' luncheon. This was their first face-to-face meeting since Russia had unilaterally annexed Crimea earlier that year.

Thanks. Glad to see the names of DOJ lawyers who filed this (as opposed to just refs to DOJ): Stanley E. Woodward, Jr E. Bryan Wilson I‘d wish every mention of such cases mentioned names of folks who deserve fame.

Go, Texas Furries!

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Giant murder chicken lays egg! 🪶🥚 www.washingtonpost.com/video/climat... (The video doesn't have a way to make it a gift link; sorry.)

I would love for phone trees to have an option to press when they start the 'Did you know you can do many things online instead of calling?' Yes. I know. I'm calling because I could NOT accomplish thing online. My GenX desire to be unperceived EXTENDS TO PHONES. I can do calls. I just don't wanna.

Today, while protecting Palestinians, Brad Lander & a group of American rabbis & others were taken by the IDF. Releasing Brad isn't enough, the Israeli govt must release them all.   If this is how they treat Americans, imagine how they treat Palestinians. Trump & Rubio's silence fuels this impunity.

We actually shamed Mike Lee’s chief of staff wow

are you kidding me? "remember this day" notifications from SNAPCHAT? literally the whole point of you is to not remember that day

The largest heat wave of the 1960s reached ~6% of the planet, lasting 46 days over the Atlantic and adjacent areas. The largest heat wave of the 2020s hit ~85% of the globe, lasted 367 days, touching virtually everyone. Calling these “heat storms" instead of “heat waves” seems like a good invention.

Just made this, this is what I actually believe

A 56-year-old Mexican man held at a federal immigration facility in Laredo was found dead in his cell Saturday morning. His family says the center would not give him medicine for diabetes, high blood pressure and a heart condition. He is the 7th person to die in ICE custody in Texas this year.

@devtest-account.bsky.social If you're follow thousands of people, best practice is to have SOME content in your profile and post a few posts so we have a hint about whether you're a bot, a spammer, or a real human. Calling yourself a devtest-account looks like a bot?

Meta employees said Lula's accounts were hindered during Brazil election, Folha reports

GRRR 😡

if you think claude is sentient you probably shouldn't use it for work unless you Also think slavery is okay

This is just beautiful to see

Oh.

I’m sorry to have to be the bad guy here but we need to recognize that we live in a compressed air thrusters world now. If you’re not finding ways to teach the critical use of compressed air thrusters in your classroom, you’re setting your students up to fail when you could be setting them up to fly

Contrary to everything we’ve been living through, there is still so much beauty in the world. Goodnight. Thanks for the companionship.

Excellent piece - the guarantee of Jewish safety is the persistence of America as a liberal democracy committed to religious pluralism, not having as few people in Congress as possible willing to criticize the Israeli government. newrepublic.com/article/2164...
