There are credible allegations of rape against the president, and evidence his administration has taken steps to cover up his relationship with the world's most notorious pedophile. This story is being covered more aggressively by People Magazine than the NY Times, Wash Post, or Wall St Journal.
"Pumpkin" they were called. Or even "Honey Bunny". You ever hear that? Very strange names. Not American names.
Trump on DC: "Nobody wanted to eat out. They were afraid. Even if you were in the restaurant, people would walk in and like the Wild West, 'Hold it up!' Everybody is standing there. Can you imagine? A fancy restaurant. They were robbing the whole restaurant. It's crazy."
If any law enforcement agency - ICE or otherwise - can: - operate anonymously - send a American citizen with special needs to the hospital - flee the scene without any fear of accountability - all predicated on targeting the WRONG PERSON then we are living in a police state.
Kavanaugh stops in action: ICE tackled a non-verbal kid near his school, left him with injuries requiring surgery, and then left the scene when they realized he wasn't the person they were looking for www.independent.com/2026/10/23/i...
Blades, beef, and booze dominate male gift guides, and as a straight white guy I just want to throw this out there: ANYTHING with even a modicum of thought put into it will make our month. Notice we come into the office with a DD coffe everyday and get a gift card? Damn, I'm on cloud nine for DAYS
Man the lists for “suggested gift for male friends” is so bereft, it’s all wallet or headphones or booze. I pride myself on being a good gift giver and I will not be defeated.

JUST POSTED: Today at The NYT we are publishing a major investigation into how President Trump used his executive powers to expose millions of Americans to greater cancer risks. A six month-long investigation built on more than 10,000 pages of FOIA records. Read it www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...
Science, especially medical science, is indiscriminately good. Gay, straight, trans, Republican, dem, rich, poor, it doesn't matter. A breakthrough like this will save lives all the same. Deep down, I think this is why right-wingers hate it so much (ex: covid vaccine, stem cell research, etc)
Enormous news. A melanoma vaccine, one of the most deadly cancers out there. Science is good and helpful and there should be more of it. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

We finally found the paid protesters Trump keeps talking about
Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

And after all this, they continue to find activities not by super secret Antifa sleeper cells, but average citizens that just really fukin' hate ICE.
NEW: Chicago-area cops took part in an undercover probe by ICE agents into Minneapolis mutual aid networks last spring, records obtained by WIRED show, including unspecified electronic surveillance, audio recordings, ALPR data by @awinston.bsky.social

He's also ruined "grok," using it as he does for an LLM that fundamentally fails, on multiple levels, the entire concept of "grokking." But this is the Billionaire Way, naming shit for things in their favorite books in ways that the original authors would likely look on in horror
That is very clearly Finn. I will not be taking questions.
The National Zoo has come up with three possible names for a female red panda that is roughly 4 months old — and you can vote on her name for the next few days. Keepers say she’s bold and feisty and call her the “most vocal” of the trio of red pandas born earlier this year. https://wapo.st/4yniduq
Yet another example that loud, continued public protest and outrage can have direct results.
President Trump overrules Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s plan to livestream the execution of a former Army officer convicted in a 2009 mass shooting, a reversal that followed an outcry from both Republicans and Democrats.
Would love to see a whole lot more of this energy from reporters.
Reporter: Do you believe that 5 deaths, potentially 6 from measles in Pennsylvania-- Staffer: We're not gonna talk about measles-- Reporter: He's the highest ranking health official in the country, he can answer that question. He's a Cabinet Secretary.
I had a colleague years ago who argued that determining if something was racist was itself a racist, simply because race was being considered. That's how I view partisanship. I don't want news outlets to be nonpartisan. That shouldn't be part of their calculus. I want them to report straight truth
🧵🧵🧵 The NY Times posted a 15-minute video today in which I got to tell NYT what’s wrong with its coverage. They said they saw my critical posts on Bluesky and invited me to do a video with them to air my grievances. Weird, right? I didn’t hold back. I blasted their sanewashing of MAGA extremism.
I simply do not trust anyone who willingly associates with the Republican party at this point. Anyone. ANYONE.
Trump: "The Republican Party, we believe that Somalia bandits, third-world gangs, and jihadist sympathizers do not belong in Ohio, they do not belong in America. We got to get them the hell out of here." More "De-port! De-port!" chants from the crowd.
I had an account there called KnowYourCrook dedicated to teaching people how to spot/avoid online scams, especially in the crypto space. Once blue verification checks could be bought, my account was suspended. Not just once, but three separate times. It was obvious then where things were headed.
I am way too online for my own good, and I had an unreasonably large twitter following, and I really *enjoyed* twitter for a lot of years, and yet leaving there and never looking back was maybe the easiest what-felt-like-a-big-ethical decision I've ever made.
Can't count how many times I've driven through Dover, NH and thought "holy hell, this place has turned AROUND!" And legitimately meant it... Then headed back out of town knowing I'd never live there again.
i know i’m getting old when i visit my hometown — which i was desperate to escape — and think, “you know, this place isn’t so bad”
Everyone shut up for a second and take a close-up look at the surface of ANOTHER PLANT. Mars, specifically.
