Do people believe the US military would refuse to shoot US civilians?
Good choice. Did the same myself in 2017 or so, back during the ‘Can a newspaper say the President is lying? How can we know the state of the Presidents mind when he makes statements? Maybe he believes them to be true? What even is a lie?’ Saga.
Isn’t the point of the headline to make your jaw drop, while at the same time not making the kind of judgement that would affect the NYT’s access to senior regime figures?
This is the problem with expecting institutions to be the keepers of ‘guardrails’ and morality. It is incompatible with their structures and governance.
The Jewish people don't have shit to do with this. Israel is directly involved in bombing Iran. What the fuck is this shit.
Trump's gift to Putin to get his own ass out of the sling is both a huge concession to Russia and an unmistakeable admission that the elective war in Iran is having acute downstream political effects on Trump and Republicans in an election year.
Devastating, in-depth indictment of Witkoff's handling of the Iran negotiations: "Witkoff did not have sufficient technical expertise or diplomatic experience to engage in effective diplomacy." www.armscontrol.org/blog/2026-03...
HOLY SHIT.
A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election.
Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?
👏👏👏👏👏
New, at Can We Still Govern?: Christian Gläßel and
@ascharpf.bsky.social have studied the formation of secret police in other countries. They explain the parallels with Trump's immigration enforcement.
The key factor is career incentives not ideology. 🧵

The problem with high quality audio equipment is that it pack it in in disgust when ‘Wonderboy’ comes up on your playlist at 11am on a Friday morning.
not sure why everyone thinks this is such a big problem when an obvious solution exists
This site is getting so close to creating a slur for people who occasionally leave their house.
Dublin City Council has said that efforts to enforce rules on Bull Island have "proven futile", a remarkable statement.
Would we tolerate people running amok in the National Gallery or at Newgrange? Hardly, so why can't we have rules at important nature sites?

Another day, another stupid Excel chart.
Some Tech CEO every day: "You don't get to own things now. I own your refrigerator. If you say mean things about me I will turn off your fridge and spoil all your dairy and eggs and meat. If you don't like it you go to jail."
People in my mentions: "Lmao are you REALLY a luddite? smh"
It's depressing that this project is even possible, because the premise of it is 'give us some of your land and resources, we don't want to live like you'. www.ft.com/content/c733...
Who fractured it Simon?
We need to stop accepting that these are "leading Jewish groups." They are not democratically accountable to the majority of American Jews, and I suspect the majority of NYC Jews do not care if Mamdani shares iftar with Mahmoud Khalil. I certainly do not! jewishinsider.com/2026/03/mamd...
Ah yes I see what you mean.
in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy
Agreed but aren’t there legitimate concerns about the specific drugs mentioned?
😕 🍪
I follow the news around local data center resistance fairly closely. This one stands out.
I would love for GA to be questioned on this and respond ‘it was the style at the time’.
How have I never seen this! Thank you!
