I would love to buy this guy or gal dinner somewhere.👇

A 2025 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Omar Yaghi is the son of Palestinian refugees who grew up in Jordan. He just left the US to move to China after raising concerns about rising anti-immigrant sentiment, like the kind shown here. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/china-than...

Obviously this is racist and gross, but it's also shockingly historically illiterate? No one who has taken a single high school world history course would deny that Arab culture has produced incredible science and literature. This is why we need basic humanities education.

She voted for "more tuna"

In other news, AD ASTRA is on Netflix. It's an excellent, underrated movie. Strongly recommend.

CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

If only there were a Nobel Prize for heckling

There is not one world leader who respects him. Not one. They all know he’s an easily manipulated idiot.

Our newest arrivals. They are called Bonnie and Clyde. 2 nice ladies got them out of this neglect situation. Sadly a 3rd dog died there recently. Hopefully we can turn their lives around 🤞❤️

We need to get money out of politics. Let's start with Elon Musk. Full story in reply.

🤔

Today we’re releasing our tally of corruption in Trump’s Washington. $377 billion. And that’s just what you can see. The documentary & data are now LIVE at corruptionland.org

🟡 hope they win bigly ✊🏽✊🏻

It was great talking to @milestaylor.bsky.social for my Substack happy hour this past weekend about his new documentary! Our democracy is NOT for sale. Watch and share (widely!) this documentary before you vote: CORRUPTIONLAND.org

In case facts still matter

I think the fact that Marissa Mayer would voluntarily disclose this to a reporter is a pretty good demonstration of how deeply the culture of Silicon Valley has diverged from the rest of humanity

The powerful executives who cozied up to Trump didn't oops accidentally forget about pendulum swings. They either: 1) Like the fascism 2) Calculated it was here to stay, so going along was savvy 3) Saw no real downside, no consequences when the pendulum swung Crucial to show them 3 was a mistake

Amazing sight! Hundreds of wading birds in a pond at Merritt Island #NationalWildlifeRefuge this morning. As Chief Seattle said: "What is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone,man would die from a great loneliness of the spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man."

Kagu, the bird on the brink of extinction meets its own kind Original post

Awww….. poor Musk. On the brighter side I feel great and you should too!

Protect this Young WOMAN at all Cost!!

My favorite 21st century Hans Zimmer piece might be the finale to Man of Steel. But pull up Crimson Tide and listen to how he integrates the Navy hymn, "Eternal Father Strong to Save" into the music

I just saw Project Hail Mary recently. It's really, really good. Intelligent and fun science fiction, a great popcorn movie.

No fatalism please. A victory agaibst the odds over an authoritarian.

Nobody should have this much power

It’s not just about who’s with you on stage. It’s about who’s with you backstage. Grateful for her love and partnership yesterday and every day…

Congrats to Lula in Brazil! Fuck you, fascists!

Nothing screams America First more than Trump partnering with Russia and China to try to install failed Hungarian autocrat Viktor Orbán as head of the United Nations. These people are nuts.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

One small act of kindness can lift everyone who sees it. Psychology calls it moral elevation, and it makes us want to help others too.

Lula defeats Musk, Zuckerberg and Bolsanaro!

Ha!

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.

Dear mr. tRump: President Lula has a message for you: He won’t take orders from you. Aww. Your “feelings” are hurt? Tough.

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.
