Trump turned Sagan’s prediction into a reality.

Makes sense since Melanoma is likely a Russian spy.

“I never met Kimberly Gargoyle. Well, maybe once, when she served me iced covfefe.”

A new statue titled “The Orange Plague”, also known as “King of Injustice”, by Danish artist Jens Galschiøt has been unveiled inside the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, where it will remain through 8 October. Remember to stop by for a selfie if you have a chance. 😏📸

Russian “journalists” kept screaming at Zelenskyy “when are you going to Moscow?!” He said: “On a missile, b…ch”

“Elizabeth Holmes tests boundaries of fact”; “Bonnie & Clyde test boundaries of bank lending”; “Jeffrey Dahmer tests boundaries of tasteful cuisine.” See, it’s easy once you get the hang of it. I can does a WSJ headline, too!

Trump wrecked it by adding his name and making bookings disappear,and now wants to blow it up. He’s like a child who killed his parents and argued he is an orphan.

I unpacked Supreme Court mail-in ballot ruling @outfrontcnn.bsky.social ⤵️ - The Executive Order is still blocked under a totally separate court order. - States should win quick victories now that USPS has "final rule" (SCOTUS simply held it's premature before that final rule issues). Explanation:

“I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party.

The Republican president of the United States just paid $5.62 million to a woman he raped. Here's my 850-word essay on the Democrats' Platner problem.

Dump them all on everyone of the dumbasses who voted for it desks and tell them to get to counting, assholes.

Stephen Colbert is a national treasure: The day after his show was canned after 11 years by CBS to appease a tyrant, he shows up on the Monroe, MI public access channel where he did his first Late Show broadcast in 2015.

Tomorrow on The Rooster: A visit to Ohio State’s Right-Wing Free Speech Centers ends with a vicious assault from an … assistant professor?!?!

That is what you call Karama giving you a harsh kick in the ass warning that you are not making good choices in life.

Holidays are coming up, a perfect time to remind your MAGA family members that Epstein is only part of the story, Trump has been importing foreign sex traffickers and giving them special protection. Then ask, "so did Trump bring the Tate brothers here as a replacement for Epstein's services?"

It is breathtaking how much of what was painstakingly built up over 250 years has been destroyed in ten months. From the economy to civilian/military relations to our foreign alliances to the DOJ to civil rights and on and on.

Damnatio memoriae

Maybe Rubio is going back to Cuba.

MrDeepFakes was shut down on May 4. This was after David Do was informed that he would be identified as part of this investigation. The website’s removal came almost a week after the US Congress passed the Take it Down Act, which will criminalise the distribution of non-consensual deepfake porn.

Exclusive: Bellingcat in partnership with @tjekdet.dk , @politiken.dk and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) can reveal the identity of a key administrator behind MrDeepFakes, one of the world’s largest providers of non-consensual deepfake pornography. www.bellingcat.com/news/2025/05...

Idiots.

Financial and business leaders have long believed in an imaginary version of Donald Trump, a version they can support—more strategic, less impulsive, someone who thinks like them. With massive tariffs, they're finding out how wrong they were the hard way. My latest, in Arc Digital:

Bracing @nicholasgrossman.bsky.social takedown of financial elites who decided tax cuts merited electing a felon who tried to wreck constitutional democracy. Special mention for the guy who said: “I feel liberated. We can say ‘retard’ and ‘pussy’ without fear of getting cancelled."

Corporate services firms like Registered Agents Inc. file official paperwork on behalf of businesses and, in doing so, can be used to help mask the true owners. Learn more about these secretive company formations:

From @wsj.com: Delaware Gov. Matt Meyer signed a law that will make it harder for shareholders to sue companies, shifting more power to businesses in an attempt to quell threats by U.S. corporations to move their legal residences to other states.

The IRS’s unit that audits billionaires and other ultrawealthy individuals has lost 38% of its workforce this year amid the Trump administration’s cost-cutting drive, new data obtained by ICIJ shows, leaving behind unfinished audits and stalled cases.

For decades, Voice of America projected American values and fact-based news to hundreds of millions worldwide. It's now off the air due to an executive order from President Donald Trump — a move some say could help America’s adversaries. https://cbsn.ws/4lgbAFg

You may have seen viral posts like this about Elon Musk saving a seven-year-old girl's life via a Neuralink device implanted into her brain. The image in the post is AI-generated and there's zero evidence that this story ever happened. It's pure fiction for online engagement.

I can’t compete with this

"My cars are wildly unpopular right now! What is the one spokesperson I could pick to make them look even less cool?"

This piece is long but the tldr is that Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, and Google Search are fucked and are going to increasingly collapse into AI hellscapes as spammers realize they can repeatedly attack the algorithms with whatever works. Ad industry is brute forcing, SEO is brute forcing

My latest: Generative AI is enabling a brute force attack against the algorithms that control reality. AI slop is taking over every algorithmically controlled social media platform and search platform, and the tech platforms are helping: www.404media.co/ai-slop-is-a...

I am happy today to join my many intelligent and thoughtful friends who are now on Bluesky.

Update on our exclusive reporting about a judge’s opinion with national implications. @aclu.org @nacdl.org & @eff.org have filed a motion to provide a amicus brief in this case.

Trump now trying to apply Putin's "Nazi biolabs in Ukraine" to Canada. "FENTANYL BIOLABS IN CANADA!!"

Footage from the phones of some of the 100 Russians that were sent through 15km of abandoned Druzhba Pipeline yesterday, whining, and not yet knowing that Ukrainian forces were waiting for them.

The face of one of those just convicted today of spying for Russia in the UK. They were also paid to place stickers around Vienna and Berlin to discredit Ukraine, including far-right messages on a Jewish museum.

Trump admin blocks G7 from taking measures against Putin's shadow tanker fleet, because of course.

It's worth keeping in mind that direct human-to-fowl interaction is how bird flu makes the leap to humans. Everyone taking up chicken-raising (if that were even practical, in urban areas) is hardly a wise idea, under the circumstances.
