Yell it out from the rooftops, so the Berners can't ignore it, EVER.
Leftists happily helped a genocidal maniac take control of the largest military on earth, and he’s now using it to attack and kill people around the world.
If you chose not to vote for Kamala Harris, you do not get to claim you’re pro human rights and anti war ever again.
Ever. Again.

If you rely on postmarks when casting your ballot, filing your taxes or paying bills, a new US Postal Service rule makes it clear that you should plan ahead.

Will X being the platform for AI csam finally be the thing that gets people who should have quit it 2 years to leave. At a certain point (now), if you are a public figure hanging on there, you’re endorsing all of this.

I honestly DON'T feel great about this move...he's potentially plotting to send his own private army to those cities once he fills up those ranks with the people he wants.

USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

Crazy things have happened in the past concerning wild card teams and Super Bowl runs...but only five times has a wildcard team reached the SB in the last 25 years. (Last team was Tampa in 2021, oddly enough with Tom Brady). That's how deep in a hole Buffalo is in now.

Still weeks to go until we finish year one of this notorious clown circus.
By amplifying this post calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist,” the Trump administration just violated the court order that they reference.

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

Fanworks communities have been absolutely broken by the AI generation. Can't blame Japanese users for being pissed off on Twitter's new AI photo edit feature to leave the long broken place.
UPDATE: We may see the first time English is displaced as the most popular language among Bluesky posters as soon as Americans head to sleep tonight.
Japanese users were close to achieving that feat at 7 am Eastern Time, and their activity is increasing at an exponential pace. This is remarkable.

Expect A. to happen, without a doubt.
So... the next questions for 2026 will be:
A: Does Trump just ignore this and send the National Guard anyway, and what, if anything, will SCOTUS do about it when they are ignored?
B: Will Trump send the Army and violate Posse Comitatus?
C: Will the Court cave on what Posse Comitatus means?

You have to wonder if Meechigan have committed the cardinal sin of the NCAA that is 'lack of institutional control'.
NEWS: Security footage captured former Michigan co-offensive coordinator Matt Weiss minutes before he allegedly hacked college students’ personal accounts to steal sexually explicit photos and videos, an FBI search warrant affidavit alleges.

At least Jake can lay claim to being able to survive five rounds against a former undisputed heavyweight champ. But I really love this for Andrew, truly. 🤭
to add to the Jake Paul schadenfreude, Andrew Tate also lost a fight to some reality TV influencer. most analysis of the fight I've read described his opponent as deeply untalented but Andrew lost anyway. Tate's endurance was awful and he was gassed after the first round.
