America is locking immigrants with no criminal record in concentration camps. Shouldn’t we be sending Eduardo Bolsonaro back to Brazil to serve his prison sentence?

Americans watching other countries hold their political criminals accountable...

“Flávio has given up. He’s terrified. He is worried his father will die in jail, that he himself will be jailed this week and that he may have a long prison term ahead.”

Regardless of what this headlines say, you need to go out and vote. The only way to ensure a decisive outcome is to turn out in numbers too large to be disputed by these fascists.

be the kind of leftist movement that makes your fascist opponents flee the country in mortal terror of legal consequences for their actions

Same character, different universes 🌌 Commission for my friend @chrisnh.bsky.social !

"... leaning even harder on true analog synths, and a more complex integration of the orchestra (almost akin to the hybrid nature of The Matrix)."

One of the oddest parts of Reflect Orbtial’s schtick is its claim of “substantive discussions” with scientists and astronomers. Basically zero evidence of this or it having an impact thus far.

is that good

The Republican running for Congress in my district looks like Chris Hansen is about to tell him to have a seat over there.

It was all fake as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....

Younger people today trying to bring smoking back do not understand what it did to the country aesthetically if absolutely nothing else

The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

Walter, we loved you.

Oh, dear. I had the good fortune to meet him a few times at conventions and had lunch with him once in Australia. Such a lovely fellow and of course an iconic figure in science fiction. RIP.

Jfc this one cop abducted and helped ICE deport 10% of that small town’s population. 😠

Hannah Barnes once published a paper in the British Medical Journal with some fake scandal about trans kids and then the next day published an "exclusive" in the BBC saying that the "BMJ found a big scandal". Her source was her own report but she never disclosed that she also wrote the BMJ paper.

i don't think it's that crazy it's a lot harder to use public money to build a complicated interconnected grid of rail infrastructure than it is to use private money to build a bunch of big warehouses. like i don't think it's great only one of those is possible but what i do not think it is is crazy

Every millenial grew up hearing "don't feed the trolls", that is the ultimate way to beat the far-right online. Starve them of attention long enough, they will come to your posts to rage bait. And you will LET THEM, because their noise on YOUR posts boosts YOU.

“Liked” this post for lack of an appropriate emoji of “thank you for posting and informing”

Anyway fuck AI. I’m gonna make some tea, do some meditation, and work on a book proposal. Drink water and take your meds you lovely creative humans

"WHAT TO DO NOW: If you've given an AI assistant your bank login, consider taking it back." It seems like common sense to me, but consider yourself warned as we are now living in a perpetual sci-fi story.

Supporters of Serbia's student-backed protest movement celebrate in the streets of Belgrade as veteran leader Aleksandar Vucic concedes defeat for his ruling party in snap elections. The vote is the culmination of nearly two years of student-led protests

One day, these people will have to be put on trial. As long as they do whatever they want without consequences, we’re all collectively screwed.

Funny because true. That's the third Social movie btw.

I cannot thank Brazil and Serbia enough. In these difficult times, it is incredibly heartening to see good people organizing themselves to prevent the worst. Thank you so much 🖖

The Government™ has made an ad about all these protests happening around the world, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.
