This prime real estate used to be occupied by something useful.

This 33-year-old nurse told the FBI she knew she was “going to set him free” after border patrol agents brought in a man whose face was bloodied and seriously injured. She treated him and helped him escape, and she faces charges now. He got away, and they never relocated him.

BREAKING NEWS: “Do geese see God” is a palindrome

If I were teaching at Wife School (adjunct, $3,000 a course) I would teach wifes to let husbands do this bsky.app/profile/luke...

Democrats created a nationwide healthcare plan based on a Republican plan where people are penalized for not having healthcare, but now people are signing up and not using it, this must be fraud. The reactionary mind is amazing.

the virgin common sense rationalist: erm, everyone knows that the universe is a cold and uncaring structure of blind chaos the chad aperture of the universe witnessing itself: wow, i live here? splendid

it’s wild that the heritage foundation wrote in text that the assault on trans woman particularly in sports is their first step in their efforts to completely abolish all Title IX protections and liberals still don’t believe it’s about more than trans women in sports

No matter what you think of Hasan this is a great time to see which politicians are incapable of staying on their message. Imagine being asked about a streamer & answering directly instead of bulldozing & talking about what you wanted to talk about on tv anyways

As @brandyjensen.bsky.social once wrote, "Too often these days I find myself in the position of defending someone I think is annoying from someone I know is dangerous." I can work with annoying. I don't have to like them. I can't work with fascists. Democrats should have a laser focus on fascists.

What he's really saying is that blue states pay better wages and are less likely to let you rip off the community you build in. That's it.

I am no more a US citizen than these children are, and neither are you. If Trump can deport these children, he can deport me or you.

I love these trucks. They rule and I want to drive one.

Prices are coming down. Things are gonna change, I can feel it ... Soooooooyyyyyyyyy un perdedorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

The most patriotic, genuinely american, four word sentence : fuck you, make me

They are always going to call us communists. Point at them, talk about the Trump admin taking large stakes in corporations, and laugh at them.

Cape Verde’s World Cup heroes have landed back home, greeted by saluting airport staff and hundreds of fans 🇨🇻 Today is also the 51st anniversary of the country’s independence. Have a day, Cape Verde 💙

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

This isn’t even a joke thing for me. Mobile platforms are a closed down technofascist response to computers. The desktop isn’t free of those influences, but they are attenuated and interacting with it makes you experience the full promise of computing. The potential and the freedom.

this is the closest thing to an age verification law i would ever consider supporting

This is literally why there's a bipartisan effort to remove internet access from young people. It's an attack on queer people, leftists, and anyone who questions authority. They don't want our children finding out that MLK and Frida Kahlo were socialists or that Stonewall was a riot.

denying a visa to the man who imitates a statue of a man we assassinated

at some point before the end of this World Cup I want to hear Zlatan tell Alexi Lalas what he thinks of him on air and I think there’s a nonzero chance that happens

And one of the pieces I really hope everyone reads, about how hostile urban design and the way we have built our society to prioritize automobiles over humans is a big part of why my son never made it past age 20

Could there be a better example of "the trans debate" than 98% of women supporting trans people and then one single lone person voting against them and getting their way regardless. It's all such a fucking sham

Trying to think of even a single red city with an adequate airport...
