"...not only were the CDC’s crime data less predictive of Flock ALPR placements in Hampton Roads than race and class—they were fully negative predictors. “I cannot emphasize how surprised I was,” he said."
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.
The last photo of third-grader Mikaeil Mirdoraghi, waving to his mom before he left for school. He was killed shortly after in the U.S./Israeli strike on a primary school in Minab.
Did they? I didn’t look into it but I could tell just from watching it that the animals were definitely expendable
Aaron Fucking Flint is worse than Zinke. I said it.
Nope. We don't have to do this. The courageous act would be to refuse. Jingoist slop like this is an enormous factor in why the US has been terrorizing the world for decades. There are no heroes bombing Iran.
Oh, did they get drafted?
Fuck you
Thinking about George W. Bush getting reelected after starting a war in the Middle East and reducing domestic civil liberties and knowing the media that helped him is actually far deeper in the Republican bag now.
Four year old’s watching Milo and Otis and, damn, this is just 75 minutes of animal abuse
But don’t worry… They’ll get you some monitoring service from Experian (one of the last companies that had a similar massive breach of information you didn’t directly give them) to keep your credit safe
I’ll max out to anyone willing to bury Arkcase face down in a salt pit. Never has a state utility made me feel so homicidal.
Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization
I guess my three main questions for a 2028 Dem presidential candidate would be
-Will you abolish ICE and prosecute everyone involved
-Will you prosecute Musk and the DOGE boys
-Will you expand SCOTUS with the aim of neutralizing all Roberts-era jurisprudence
It's pretty fucking embarrassing -- damning, even -- that a U.S. scandal driven by U.S. elites is visiting consequences upon people in other countries while those most responsible for it continue to hold positions of the absolute highest power in America. Trash country.
Terribly sorry to read this. Feel like I knew Askum, having read daily reports of a dog life well lived for years now. He was a lucky boy!
it's a mass, growing realization among everyday americans that the institutions they put their faith in to protect them — law enforcement, the government, the Democratic party — won't. it's a radicalization that leads to an intimate understanding of the axiom "we protect us"
So isn’t AG Austin Knudsen violating his oath to uphold the Montana Constitution by signing onto this effort?
I see a lot of people confidently labeling “scam accounts” or even leading witch-hunts (e.g. Rev Howard Arson acct) but what I never see is any evidence of those assertions. As a neutral observer, it sure looks like animus.
Speaking of Claremont, our governor in Montana, Greg Gianforte, appointed this guy to the body that distributed (until they got DOGE’d) our National Endowment for the Humanities funds: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
Gianforte read “serves Montana’s multicultural communities through stories and conversation” and thought, “I know just the guy!”
www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
Hey look! It’s Gianforte appointee to the Humanities Montana board having his racist and bigoted views aired out in Congress now that he’s a nominee to high diplomatic post. #mtpol
MTFP doing the fascists’ work for them with a blatant misrepresentation of the resolution. “Avoid” appears 3 times in the resolution & two are qualified to federal actions where “authority” is lacking and the other directions the consideration of avoidance. Classic Lutey bootlicking.
![Examining the bodies returned to their people after the most recent so-called ceasefire, Palestinian doctors noted that, in some bodies “the rib cage and ribs were clipped with a sharp saw—a medical saw, a bone saw—and the sternum, along with the central part of the ribs, [were] lifted to allow for the removal of the heart and lungs without damage to the organ being taken.” Organ procurement, with few exceptions like skin and cornea, requires that the body be either alive—via brain death—or just-dead—via circulatory death. It is plausible that some Palestinian prisoners’ torture led to brain death. It is also possible their torturers felt no need to wait. Palestinian witnesses have reported that some prisoners were alive at the time they were taken for organ extraction. In one batch of bodies, the organs removed were those commonly transplanted: heart, liver, lungs. The transplant surgeon waits for a person to die; the soldier can’t. The settler surgeon wields his mastery over the body to serve the state. Here, the surgeon acts as—is—a soldier.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tgw3d4hvw3x5ijrxax7lg26u/bafkreiesvmsm3hrmrwxi7d7wvuaxc7u7oovqonpx2tdpxdnjhlgxh7lhni@jpeg)

"Palestinian witnesses have reported that some prisoners were alive at the time they were taken for organ extraction. In one batch of bodies, the organs removed were those commonly transplanted: heart, liver, lungs... Here, the surgeon acts as—is—a soldier."
I'm honestly speechless.
Washington Post endorsement of Pam Bondi for Attorney General: "Florida's former attorney general is qualified; lawyers who have worked with her report that she is serious."
simply one of the greatest calls of all time
Reads like PR for an event that the group’s ED is quoted as saying is intended “to bring in new members,” but makes no ref to the “prominent think tank” & “policy-focused research group” being a well-funded creation of the Koch/DeVos/Coors/Walton/big oil/tobacco/Meta funded SPN. Journo malpractice.
I genuinely cannot believe the degree to which we are pissing away this generational breakthrough, even given the fuckmuppets who are involved www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
