Aside from anything else, it's pure nonsense to suggest that the US election results do not have a worldwide impact.

I just think Matt's wrong about this. We're at a point in our technological development where a ton of problems spill over national borders--if Flavio Bolsonaro burns down the Amazon, that will flood houses in Miami.

HOLY SHIT. In a sworn statement yesterday, an ICE agent told a federal judge that an ICE flight to Equatorial Guinea had been cancelled and so couldn't be used to bring Ahmed Soliman back to the United States. The plane just landed in Equatorial Guinea. prospect.org/2026/10/23/t...

As Madison says, she and her mother are already working so hard to ensure that their loved ones have a decent life and the government wants to push them into a situation where they will have to choose between having a home and continuing to provide that care. WTF are we doing here, Labor? #auspol

She was asked, directly, where she passed the bar. She replied "when [she] was in China."

Zacharia: "A lot of the misinformation, miscommunication is around the fact that I labeled myself a lawyer. I consulted for a long time many people in the field -- 'Is it ok if I label myself a lawyer?' -- and they said, 'Absolutely. You can call yourself a lawyer. You have a JD'"

As anger builds online against comedian Shane Gillis’ description of women as “whores” during his “Saturday Night Live” monologue, one party is staying noticeably absent from the conversation: “SNL” itself. https://cnn.it/4jYbunb

Never heard of Shane Gillis before yesterday. Now I know he's a creep, a misogynist and a loser And I know the same about people who thought his "joke" was funny or in any way ok.

But it’s also true that these systems are just misogynistic. And we’re so busy holding victims to an impossibly high standard that we forget to ask the most basic questions about whether people like police did their jobs effectively.

Our government is basically Ed Sheeran 😭

(1/5) Pentagon leadership has said that by the end of this month, Palantir's Maven artificial intelligence system will become a line item with stable, long-term funding in the defense budget (a "program of record"). #News #Palantir #AI

Ed Sheeran fans - if Free Palestine means something to you: you know what to do To Ed Sheeran: grow a spine All respect for Macklemore Fuck Robert Kraft and Pink too. Being anti-genocide is not anti-semitic. Everyone deserves to live free - that includes Jews and Palestinians. It's not either/or

Prem Thakker ツ@premthakker.bsky.social

New: Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran. Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.

Two Trump appointees on the Second Circuit and a Biden appointee *just last week* denied DOJ's request for a stay of the injunction during appeal. This was literally the least sensible moment for Mount Sinai to fold.

BREAKING: Second Circuit denies DOJ's request to be able to obtain NYC trans minor patients' records during litigation. The panel included two Trump appointees and one Biden appointee. There was no noted dissent. DOJ is appealing an injunction it lost. Background: www.lawdork.com/p/doj-trans-...

Is that a new HHS logo or has it always been that? Its putting me in mind of something but I'm not sure if I'm just projecting

Last month, the Trump administration released two bullshit reports attacking transgender people—their care and the medical consensus supporting their existence. TWO. Ten days apart. www.importantcontext.news/p/new-hhs-re... www.importantcontext.news/p/hhs-releas...

Oh 1000000%. She thinks it’s softening and people who want to enjoy HP guilt free will believe it but a) it’s bad enough on its own and b) there’s no use pretending it is really “soft” anyway because the mask of “concern” fell right off and got shotgunned into frigging space.

The thing is about the whole “public spaces” nonsense is that it’s fucking nonsense. If you are rational/reasonable about this, if you had not been radicalised, it simply wouldn’t be an issue to you at all. You can see right thru it for what it is: transphobic propaganda designed to pipeline you.

Here is the full suspension letter from UGent that was sent to Nathan Cofnas, it shows ample reason for his suspension and potential termination. Including breach of contract, using the University of Ghent’s name and legitimacy to promote his racial supremacist views and causing reputational damage.
