It’s really fascinating what happens when you remove diversity—white male incompetency is placed on full display and with no one to blame for their actions —so they just lie.

I don't want Canada or Greenland…

I want PBS, Social Security, and The Smithsonian.

“The fact that Elon Musk, a de facto prime minister acting with the authority of the president, can cancel federal programs without a peep from the majority in Congress is a sign of constitutional rot.”

Limp, lazy, and complicit, @thune.senate.gov.

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

In Finland, media education has been part of schools since the 1950s and is woven into the curriculum. Students learn about propaganda, misleading statistics, and even create their own media messages to understand how narratives shape perception.

It must start at primary level. Critical thinking isn’t abstract; it’s the ability to assess information, recognise manipulation, and engage thoughtfully. Many countries already integrate aspects of this into their school systems - we don’t need to reinvent the wheel, just learn from the best.

‘The First Time’ is as perfect an intersection of material, performance and production as has ever been recorded. But it is built on the devastatingly beautiful voice and interpretation of Roberta Flack.😞

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest…

TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea.

The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.
