⚠️ Confirmed: Live metrics show #Turkey has restricted access to multiple social media platforms including X, YouTube, Instagram and TikTok; the incident comes as Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu and dozens of others are detained in events described by the opposition as a "coup"

Die KvU ("Kirche von Unten"), lange Jugendclub in Berlin-Mitte, hat eine Geschichte, die bis in die Zeit der DDR-Opposition vor der Wende zurückreicht.

Der Ort in Mitte wurde unter ihren Füßen verkauft, jetzt wird sie wieder vertrieben.

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

Just a couple more days left to get Dates & Wires with an introductory 10% discount.

D&W is a cyberpunk dating sim/visual novel where you, the player, travel to a fictional post-Soviet hellhole for two days of soul searching and questionable dates with local cyborgs, hackers and burnouts ✨
