The Parasite class has always been our collective nightmare in human form. This isn’t me trying to convince you that they are Lizard people or Gay frogs or whatever, this is my attempt to show how they have been seperated from humanity in real, terrifying and profound ways. ...

Tired: β€œWe have been at war with Iran since 1979.”

Wired: "We have been at war with Iran since 1947.”

Inspired: β€œWe have always been at war with Iran.”

@cbcpitchbot.bsky.social , hey could you just for once, pretend it's the 90s or before, and get an interviewer who can ask a question like this, and then do the follow up to push the speaker into having to be frank with the sad truth? No getting away with anything? No PR?

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 countriesβ€”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.

Justice Department publishes some missing Epstein files related to Trump The Justice Department has published additional Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor after an NPR investigation found dozens of pages were withheld.

The Justice Department released *some* of the missing files, namely FBI interview notes from the woman alleging Epstein trafficked her as a young teen to Trump, Trump sexually assaulted her, and then she later endured a series of threats not to talk. Very dark reading www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n...

The US-Israeli bombing campaign has divided Iranians at home and abroad - and across much of mainstream Western media, one side is being significantly amplified.

@meenakshirv.bsky.social reports on how wars get justified and legitimised through media.

Given the Kurds place in the Iranian state and the relevant history this seems like a pretty huge risk for them to get involved on this basis.

β€œEvery day, reports emerge of cruelty in detention centers, driven by inadequate and untimely medical careβ€”even for children. Last year, over 30 immigrants died in ICE custody. In Jan., six more died, w/the list growing.

Even as focus shifts to Iran, the domestic crackdown on immigrants persists.”

The APA Council of Representatives invited testimony from JVP member @barrytrachtenberg.bsky.social to pass the resolution, which reinforces the APA’s commitment to countering antisemitism, while also recognizing the legitimacy of teaching and advocating for Palestinian rights.
