EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…

The internet ridiculed President Donald Trump's "bionic legs" as he strutted down the tarmac on Friday before arriving in Georgia for another rally as the midterm elections loom.

Got his fucking ass @abdulelsayed.bsky.social

@somemorenews.bsky.social Only outlet I’ve seen go with the most logic interpretation of Trump’s “nuke” comment. https://youtu.be/XxVvyxn1X8Q?si=3VBjOr9dBH1E3YaT

I think about this tweet often. Pretty much any time when politicians talk about healthcare.

Turns out we don’t have to invoke weapons of mass destruction when talking about ocean heat uptake. The ocean absorbed a record-breaking 23 zettajoules of heat last year, equivalent to 40 times the energy used by humanity. It’s not going to end well.

Great thread. Why red tape and regulations may be bogiemen after all.

This is fucking stupid. The Mountain Goats solved infinite personalised music 20 years ago.

The ICE agent who shot Araujo in a Houston is named GREGORY FEATHERS. Make sure everyone knows.

“JFK jr” at it again I see

Oh dear. Can't imagine why this is happening.

Exxon is now expecting a 2.5 - 3C rise by 2050 But says f*ck you - we are just going to keep right on sucking up as much gas and oil as we can Because even though we know what's coming, we really don't give a sh*t www.reuters.com/business/ene...

Trans people are a slightly LARGER percent of the US population in 2026 than Jewish people were in Germany in 1933. Assholes who say trans folk aren’t worth defending because of population size are telling us exactly who they would have been in Nazi Germany.

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

VERY important paper! This study detected SARS-CoV-2 in the air of common areas of 4 big US airports. SARS-CoV-2 detected in 98% of samples through the year. Influenza A was found during flu season. That’s why you want to wear an N95 respirator in an airport! And all indoor public spaces all year!

Mask up folks. Airports especially, but any enclosed space.

the extent to which trans people are being told that they should hold their noses and support candidates who are saying they don’t exist (as Talarico said about nonbinary people earlier this week, for ex) or that their identity and HEALTHCARE are up for debate is shameful

Look at this loathsome repulsive creature yelling at a reporter. In addition to the fact that he’s the worst president in US history, he’s one of the worst human beings on planet earth. His supporters have a very serious defect in their character.

The oped writes itself “ As the 8 years of President CSAM Generator’s reign draw to a close, heated debate rages within the Centre left as to whether Americans can ever be expected to vote for a Female candidate, concerns linger about whether her periods make her too emotionally unbalanced to lead

There‘s a cursed possible timeline where an AI is elected US president before a human woman. Before anyone argues a computer can never be truly intelligent or have a soul or whatever, idk if that’s true or not but it’s irrelevant because our current president doesn’t meet those criteria either.

a lot of people want to believe that right-wing beliefs are rooted in some legitimate material grievance. that makes it easier to imagine that if we simply solved the material problem, they’d deradicalize. but they won’t, because they aren’t disillusioned, they’re just morons.

I appear to have hit a adhd stretch goal.

I work for a solicitors and spend a lot of my time writing cheques for Power of Attorney applications. I've been making them out to the Office Of The Pubic Guardian for years and nobody has ever noticed or pulled me up on it.

I tell people all the time that I got lucky with my career and it annoys a lot of them. "No, but you're good," they will say, and I will say, yes, I am good, and also here are all these people who write as well as I do but did not get the same break, so being good isn't the issue, being lucky is.

You cannot appeal to rigorous academic standards and argue for the inclusion of racist pseudoscience, the most fallacious, damaging, and discredited idea of the past 500 years. You might as well teach doctors to recognize the four humors.

I did not heed this warning. I wish I had

Imagine finding out, at the same time the world does, that your boss doesn’t care about you at all. In fact, the best word to describe what their boss thinks of them is “Disposable”

Stunning that we are just accepting this. No outrage towards the people and institutions that told that this wasn’t real or stopping it was too expensive.

Have a horrible feeling the stage is set for loads of Brits to blind themselves today. Silly season making it a big news item. No glasses anywhere. People more scornful of authority than they've ever been. The ultimate finger in the eye to woke health and safety culture: your own eye.

Both Glenn and Ryan faced a ton of criticism for stupid shit they said. Rather than reflect on maybe not saying stupid shit, they're sure it was because "woke." What is it with mediocre dudes who can't take criticism?
