I think this is about the temperature but honestly it works for decades as well

I feel like the point of children's movies is partly to help children have difficult conversations? idk

4/ NYU closed its student center stairs for YEARS to to prevent support for Palestine.

It enclosed its only plaza to prevent support for Palestine.

It banned graduation speakers to prevent support for Palestine.

No one can opine or express anything… in a UNIVERSITY!!!

2/ but for now, I’ll just say that NYU expecting to pick student “speakers” who will record hostage videos and then sit beneath their own hostage videos because NYU will not tolerate even the chance of anyone talking about Palestine is such an indictment of liberalism and academia.

I live in NJ. The state of NJ, in both percentage and absolute terms, lost more manufacturing jobs than any other state in the union and it's not even close. Every single NJ county lost more jobs than the US average, and most lost >58% of jobs

And yet, nobody interviews "the forgotten man" here.

guys www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...

the official position of the ADL is that the man on the left is an antisemite and the man on the right is not.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

Heathcliff sits contemplatively in an armchair, surrounded by several framed pictures of meat, with a few pieces of meat hanging from the ceiling on wires. Grandma Nutmeg stands at the doorway with her friend and says "His aesthetic is meat core."

We should spend tons of money on blue states so that we can point to them and say “Look at how great Democrat governance is.” vs pouring $ into red areas that makes them look better off than NYC.

The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.

This really should be on every front page in America.

The fucking President, an adjudicated rapist and Epstein BFF, almost certainly assaulted a 13 year old child

The Campaign to Take Down Alex Bores Is Just the Beginning A leading AI industry-backed Super PAC is targeting a pro-regulation candidate — and building a strategy that other politicians will have to contend with.

Great article on underbelly of a Big Tech Super PAC, shamelessly spending millions of dollars to defeat a guy running for congress. The goal isn't just to defeat him, but send a message.

this thread is just straddling the line between "seriously overthinking a thing" and "wait this is weirdly plausible"

like, it *is* interesting that "kek" took off when "bur" did not despite the stereotype of the edgelord being more willing to play Horde

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.

“A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible—and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

This is the sort of thing that gets played at war crimes tribunals

It Wasn't Fascism All Along Conservatism was a distinct ideology but it is dead and it is not coming back.

"Fascists just don’t care about economics. To them, it’s entirely secondary to the project of racial domination. They can sound vaguely ‘populist’ and anti-corporate at times, ruthlessly capitalist at others. But in reality they’re neither."

Mayor Mamdani Launches New Efforts to Take Sidewalk Sheds Down, Require Fewer Unnecessary Sheds

Holy crap, Mamdani is finally doing something to bring down sidewalk sheds that will actually sort of work! Sheds will no longer be required more than 40 ft. away from buildings, which will be a help to NYCHA and other towers-in-a-park complexes www.nyc.gov/mayors-offic...

This is what they said about tariffs, too. We must all be willing to endure some short term pain so our dumbass president can implement the policies that will ensure long term pain.

JACK FOR NEW YORK Jack Schlossberg @JBKSchlossberg x.com Today is the official launch of the FIX IT NOW petition. I'll be going across the city in a petition drive to make public housing safer, cleaner and stronger. SAY NO TO THE DEMOLITION - The Elliot Chelsea + Fulton Houses are in my neighborhood - repairs, not the wrecking ball !!

Jack Schlossberg is now going full NIMBY and fighting against a plan to rebuild a dilapidated NYCHA campus with even more affordable housing and guaranteed brand new homes for every current NYCHA tenant.

What a joke this guy is

like i said this when the US attacked venezuela. we are hurdling back into an extremely violent world, one which hasn't really existed since the 1700s and which nobody since hitler has really tried to enact. and it's entirely on trump's hands

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countries—including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

I keep thinking that Pam Bondi needs to return to congress and answer questions about Epstein now that the DJIA is below 50,000.

I fucking hate the American culture of entitled asshole selfishness. you see it everywhere. the driver assholes going 90 in a school zone. the assholes who don’t leash their dog or pick up their dog shit. the assholes who litter. the assholes who won’t vaccine their kids

Had US v. Trump not happened, would Trump have launched a full-scale war (arguably two) without some kind of Congressional fig leaf?

I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.
