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...

"If you don't want datacentres you're a luddite and don't know how the internet works"
Nah, man, i just want to have consent not be fucking violated at every possible turn. I don't think it's an unreasonable ask.
What ally of the US detains our politicians and gets away with it with such impunity? None. Israel is a rogue and hostile nation to Americans. Americans are being killed, harassed and beaten there by the IDF and we act like it’s nothing. There is no other country that could get away with this.
A World Without Us? It Never Existed and Never Will.
From ancient temples to modern streets, queer people have always been here. Lesbian love stories carved into history, gay bonds that shaped cultures, bisexual hearts that loved beyond boundaries, trans lives that defied rigid norms, intersex .
⚡️️What Russia's doing to Ukraine is 'fine,' Trump says.
"Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much," Trump said, hours after a Russian drone strike in a public park killed six people, including two children.
It’s hard to think of a better definition of a traitor to the West than someone who deliberately sabotages a European democracy’s military operation against a barbaric Russian invasion.
“We wasn’t aware the child was in the car, I can tell you that.” - Markwayne Mullin about his officers shooting a man in the neck who was simply parking in a parking space.
Over the past decade, scientists have found that when tiny green spaces are scattered across cities, their cumulative effects are greater than the sum of their parts.
@jollyette.bsky.social writes on the giant power of tiny parks.
Bats have very expressive faces and use their expressions to communicate non-verbally with other bats. They wrinkle their muzzle to show dislike, put their ears to the side to show insecurity, raise their ears to show curiosity, lay ears back to show aggression, and show their teeth in defense.
Brett Kavanaugh said it was perfected okay for ICE to arrest US citizens for "brief periods." This created the "Kavanaugh stop." This is how that has played out: 506 US citizens arrested in the last year, many of them brutally assaulted, by ICE agents. projects.propublica.org/american-cit...

Samuel Alito: We won't overturn Obergefell because it's engendered reliance interests.
Jan Crawford: Well, many people had organized their lives around Roe v. Wade.
Alito: No, they didn't. Women merely had an "abstract" interest in "ideas about the kind of society that they were going to live in."
It's not just in Denmark and Europe. It's all across the world. People take note of what's afoot inside Trump's GOP, and see something monstrous and threatening. America is no longer an ally. America is potentially an extremely dangerous, indeed depraved, threat to human life on earth.

Crush the arts (Kennedy Center), destroy the civil service (DOGE), control elections (gestures broadly), dismantle the press (gestures more broadly), decimate science (NIH), and demolish education (DeptEd). The authoritarian playbook.
The Israel & Russia issue is not complicated. You either oppose atrocities regardless of who commits them, or you don’t. Everything else is noise. We don’t need protestors, zealots, influencers, celebs, or anyone to tell us what international law says or what is right and wrong.
Data Centers would appear to be the perfect wedge issue for the Democrats in the midterms, because both mainstream Republicans and their MAGA counterparts hate data centers and want to put a hold on them. But Dem advisors are arguing against—the same Dem advisors who work for the tech bros.
As long as we have nuclear weapons, the job of ending humanity will continue to be as easy as the push of a button—or an AI agent hacking into a nuclear command-and-control system.

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12.
Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people
For 33 years, McConnell has voted against family and medical leave for working Americans. Then he disappears from the Senate for 92 days and keeps collecting his full paycheck. Apparently, paid leave is only a problem when someone else gets it.
