Compassion Reigns Supreme

How do people feel @ term “Totenberg Democrats” for NPR-listening would-be appeasers whose only question is “am I invited?”

Astonishing: Maxwell was willing to tell Blanche about some of Trump's rapes, and he ordered her not to. "Let's not talk about inviduals." WTF were they there to talk about? There's EVIDENCE on this.

You have to really, really, really fucking suck for your 8th grade teacher to come out and shame you like this. Damn.

This isn't among the "top stories" at @nytimes.com and I'm not sure it's at the site at all.

Great game

Nice find of Jaden in corner by Edwards

Not a great Wolves start to 2nd half

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

these people gonna crash & burn so hard. It's so obvious in everything they do, from the overpay to balloon payment to court filings, (alleged blacklist), but not the least of which is cuz they appear to be clueless AF @ dealing with creatives - lifeblood of their org, and I'm popping corn for it

With AI buildout’s impact on memory and storage costs it feels like tech is trying to corner the market like the dog that finally caught the bumper and realizing their eyes were bigger than their capacities and this only ends one way, Icarus Zuckenberg Didn’t work out any better w/Hunts & silver

One sentence: “Between the Democratic Convention & election night, Clinton's emails were mentioned in more NYT stories than the presidential debates, Trump's tax returns, the Trump University fraud litigation, the Access Hollywood tape, Trump's proposed Muslim ban, & the VP debate combined.” 😐

Yesterday my neighbor was mowing lawn with-first time I’ve ever seen it- an electric mower. Not a sound. The people telling you nothing improves feel like same MFers who spent 50 yrs telling us govt that created this great nation couldn’t do anything right Then took office to plunder taxpayer $$

The achievements of the Serbian student movement will be studied for decades. This was their blueprint for revolution. The recipe for throwing a corrupt authoritarian from office. Read, learn, implement. (📸 Save and Saclony)

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

"Energy independence"

Once again, sharing the list:

"During the current measles epidemic in Pennsylvania, RFK Jr. hasn’t returned to Lancaster County to praise them for their decision not to vaccinate themselves and their children." RFKJ is in practice (I can't really speak to his sick motive) one of the most prolific serial killers in history.

The power of capital is transnational and solidarity in opposition to it must be as well. Democracy abroad is better for democracy at home. The authoritarians and autocrats benefit from the world being a closed transactional buyer's club; it is in all our interests to work against this together.

Roughly 1/4 of its workforce. $MSFT

I do think when historians look back the period the exact moment where it flipped and started going the other way won’t be anything any politician did but my Minneapolis neighbors weathering the worst of the regime in the streets, rallying together, fighting back, and winning

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

Big Tech's Dem-aligned org in Washington, Chamber of Progress is ostensibly all about "repairing" the relationship between Silicon Valley and Dems. But they're being funded by "Build American AI" the org which is spending millions backing imperiled Republican Senate candidates in crucial states

Who dat? New Friendster.

That this is in THE WASHINGTON POST is almost too much irony to bear.

How is Yglesias wrong about so many things? How could one not hope that lawless authoritarian fascists lose in Brazil, for example, or Serbia? These countries affect us in so many ways too.

Stephen Miller's and Russ Vought's salaried zeroed out. Not negotiable.

Watch my video to understand how Lula created a sense of happiness that propelled his campaign to victory. bsky.app/profile/mike...

been building. Go ahead and seal the doors. Just remember, hiding in a bunker only works if the people outside don’t figure out where the air vents are. Space is looking pretty good right now, isn't it?

Let’s all pre-order @alexgibneyfilm.bsky.social ‘s MUSK documentary. It’s essential viewing and certain “powers that be” want it to disappear.

So Lula not only won, he basically doubled his margin of victory from 2022. I'm guessing he won thanks to voters who didn't love him, but were terrified to see Flavio given near-dictatorial power. It's going to be a messy next chapter for Brazil, but at least it'll be a fight, not a curb-stomping.

None of us should forget this. Meta should be subjected to corporate death penalty and permanently broken up into small pieces.

It's only socialism when you tax the wealthy & use it to fund services for the poor & middle class. Otherwise, it's just sparkling kleptocracy! Related: Family farmers have made more take-home income than non-farmers every single year since 1997. Yes, that's AFTER farm debts & expenses.

Between Alberta, Serbia and Brazil, right-wingers are eating a lot of shit this week.

Israel is just 2 days away from a critical election, and thousands of protesters are filling the streets of Tel Aviv demanding Netanyahu’s removal! They’re demanding accountability for October 7 security failures and an independent commission of inquiry.

men have always been pretty questionable but imo not enough people have really wrapped their heads around how thoroughly the internet has cooked men's brains over the last ~15 years.

Meanwhile, pro-democracy, pro-Europe protesters in Tbilisi, Georgia, are tonight nearing their 700th consecutive day of protest against the pro-Russian government. They haven't missed a single day in the last 23 months.

For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

Talarico should blush

Let it be noted that Shannon took that drive with his right and drew the foul

If you had told me at any point in Lula's 1st or 2nd term not only that I would be rooting for him in the future ... but also that I'd be rooting for his *4th* term, when he's *80*, after multiple corruption convictions... and that I would think it was of *urgent global importance* for him to win...

No Kawhi? WTF? Their one visit? That’s some shit, but good for the Wolves

Dem anti-trans campaigning is 100% terrible, plus way stupid. However: If Dems do badly, both parties will surely conclude that the GOP massive anti-trans effort worked, and we'll see more of it next time, and policies to match. Yes, even if the particular losers were bad on the issue.

Zelenskyy: The most important thing today is that Starlink and Starshield operations have been restored to the speeds we had before the restrictions.

3 out of 300 polled for a Michigan statewide race would be a poll of 100,000 people.
