For days, we’d been digging for proof that a Russian oligarch attended Donald Trump Jr.’s wedding. We scoured social media and analyzed wicker chairs. Then, on a swimsuit model’s Instagram, we found the shaved head we were looking for.

if you ever wondered what you’d have done, you’re doing it right now, because it’s happening here.
NEW: We obtained recordings of 160+ emergency calls made from or about an immigration detention center where three people died within six weeks. “They will not give them medical treatment,” one caller said, seeking help for a detainee with kidney stones.

A pair of gloves. An exam gown. Disinfectant wipes. Simple PPE, but for a medic treating a wounded person near the front lines, they can make an enormous difference. We're shipping ~6 tons of PPE to Zaporizhzhia & we need your help! Pls pitch in & share! https://ukrainedefensesupport.org/causes/
I gotta say - It's so "fun" experiencing all the once-in-a-lifetime events that have happened in the last few years.

@deviantollam.bsky.social I thought this sort of thing was illegal? It doesn't lock... But it could also get blocked from the outside. Definitely enough room between the elevator door and the outside door for someone to get stuck...

"[I]n Florida, the period between the signing of a death warrant and an execution is roughly one month, on average ... Florida's own history of wrongful convictions in capital cases underscores what is at stake. No state has exonerated more death row prisoners, 30 men in all."
NEW: As most states move away from the death penalty, Florida is executing more prisoners than ever before. Last year, 19 people were put to death — shattering the state’s previous annual record of 11, first set in 1936. with @nytimes.com
I've been reskeeted by the CPSC and my life is basically all downhill from here. I've peaked. There's no topping this.
A second valid criticism has presented itself in our fireworks thread. We are being called out for using an example from 'The Rock' (1996) for public health purposes instead of a much more applicable example from Armageddon (1998) where Jason Isaacs really does make the most of a minor role.

There are two options: either Moscow is so incompetent that they can't direct their attacks to the intended target, or that the residential buildings, hospitals, and cultural icons they have been striking for 4 years ARE the intended targets. But we all know they're striking them intentionally.
In their mindless attacks on Kyiv, russian terrorists also targeted Dovzhenko National Film Studios — a landmark of Ukrainian cinema that housed an archive of over 100,000 costumes and 600 films. Much of this cultural heritage has now been lost.

People spent their whole lives fighting for the end of this era. People *died* for this. and we are allowing it to be rolled back without so much as a whimper.
Breaking: Tennessee Republicans pass new 9-0 gerrymander after SCOTUS destruction of Voting Rights Act eliminating state’s only majority-Black district & last Democratic seat. Splits Memphis, which is 63% Black, into 3 districts to disenfranchise Black voters. Quite literally a return to Jim Crow

If the government gets to decide if you have them, they're not human rights.
Stephen Miller: "The human rights that we are gonna protect are not of the savages that torture and rape and murder. The human rights we are going to protect are of the peaceable citizens who have an absolute human right to live in physical safety and security every day of their lives."

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L
