It doesn’t appear to matter to UK racists that Kirk was murdered by a MAGA guy. They’re going to use it as an excuse to kill some of us anyway.

It’s tomato season! Making butter-braised tomato soup for the first time. We’ve got a few different varieties growing on the porch, plus some from a friend’s garden. Hoping it adds complexity to the flavor!

Please read this from FCC Commissioner @agomezfcc.bsky.social to understand what is about to happen at CBS. The network’s content will now be fully-controlled by the Trump Administration.
A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda.
This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵

I think I’ll be making some pesto this week. Happily surprised none of the basil has gone to seed with all the heat we’ve had. Trimmed a bit of rosemary and Thai basil too. Tomatoes, leeks and the poblano peppers also going strong

A short video about neo-Nazi dress codes in Berlin, which I recorded after yesterday’s protest against Israel’s mass starvation of Palestinians. The most distinctive ones at the moment are Yakuza, Thor Steinar, Lyle and Scott, and Ellesse, but there are others.

One of the most incontrovertible statements I've seen–an American professional soldier, West Point-trained, bluntly stating he witnessed war crimes committed by the IDF and U.S. mercenaries.

worth noting that 80% of women incarcerated in the US have a diagnosed mental illness. heat can both exacerbate the illness itself, AND many of the medications we use to treat it make you even more prone to risk from heat
Please read this first-person essay from Lanae Tipton, an incarcerated journalist in Texas with a desperate plea for air conditioning in prisons. She’s watched women seize on the floor from the heat. As one prison staffer said, “I vomited blood.”
