Additional 178 cases of measles reported by US health authorities amid outbreak

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

What we learned is that former petrochemical lobbyists now inside the EPA are meeting with former clients and then moving to force career staff at the EPA to rollback public health protections. We found the actual documents detailing these moves. Smoking guns. (Redlines striking protections)

Small Prophets on Apple is quietly lovely. Originally BBC.

One of the hardest aspects of our current political situation is how normal it’s become for the most powerful people to say the most harmful and untrue things. Repeatedly. And then to see those with the most power to hold them accountable refuse to do so.

Looks like my grandson’s vintage little tykes truck

This made me laugh this week.

In his defense of Ramaswamy’s vile ad, Trump called Amy Acton a “defective” candidate. As a former rape crisis counselor who has worked with countless survivors of childhood sexual assault, I want to speak a bit about how profoundly damaging that is. 🧵

Survivors are all around us. Domestic and sexual violence are so damn common in this country that if you are not a survivor yourself you can be sure that you are among survivors every time you leave your home. And survivors are hearing Trump’s abusive language every damn day.

FWIW, most MAGA people probably believe Amy Acton’s stepfather raped her. But they think being a rape victim Is disqualifying. I get this from my family. They believe I was raped in college. They just use that as their reason to call me crazy and say my judgment is untrustworthy.

Polymarket argued that it brings "objective, data-driven insight" into how a sexual assault cases moves "through the legal system."

i think it would be great with the holiday season right around the corner if we skipped the "how to avoid talking about politics with your kooky uncle" articles and got a bunch of more useful "how to talk to older family members about setting a family codeword in case of phishing attempts" articles

Back in the 3 DVDs at a time via Red Envelopes in the mail had better content, and a better algo to recommend it to you. Now they literally recommend shows to me because I watch the show already (not continue watching) I mostly watch non US shows there now.

This is the East Coast's largest refinery, which means this is a very significant labor disupute at a very significant energy facility.

Wait, Nicola Walker narrates several audio books? How did I not know this?

Study finds over 40% of mass attackers had a history of domestic violence. Parsing out the 50 subset of workplace attackers, that number goes up to 53%. Nearly all of the attacks were carried out by men who acted alone. abcnews.com/Politics/per...

Wild update on the story of a former staffer for Republican Congressman Jeff Van Drew who got body modifications to fake an assault last November: She tested positive for cocaine, and is found to have had thousands of calls with a man incarcerated for murder in Louisiana, who she threatened to kill.

Reading this really fucked me up last night. I suppose rape profiteering has been around as long as war profiteering. They’re siblings. That said, there’s something about the unapologetic attitude of betting on the implications of gang rape that bruised the inside of my soul last night.

WTF The software can track people and cars across a network of cameras and alert police the moment it spots them. The technology, is part of Motorola Solutions, whose surveillance cameras and license-plate readers increasingly blanket streets across the country www.nj.com/news/2026/10...

I would like to see the end of the term "vaccine skeptic," to be replaced by "reality denier." These so-called skeptics are actually the most gullible rubes on the planet when it comes to conspiracy nonsense and tech-bro slop; the only thing that makes them skeptical is peer-reviewed evidence.

A staggering number of idiots in this country don’t know the difference between Chicken Pox and Measles. Part of the problem (willful idiocy aside) is there are very few people alive today old enough to remember a world before the measles vaccine.

Flying cars will never take off. Entirely impractical, and chaos would ensue. You know what’s very practical and cool? A network of high speed trains.

Men need to be shut down. I suggest a 5 year hiatus, and then we’ll reassess. Too many of you are 12 going wow cool the car did a flip, as Elon juices his stock. Too many of you do not have the maturity or judgment to decide things any more. Let the people with adult prefrontal cortexes run shit.

the 21 year old drinking age is so beautifully american, as it turns college drinking into a ritual of repression, deceit, release. a 19 year old who can buy a beer at a club doesn't feel the need to do 7 shots of vodka beforehand, but thanks to our dumbass laws "pregaming" is an institution
