I’m pretty sure this year is a new record for the amount of times I’ve muttered, “Jesus Fucking Christ” while reading the news

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

A smart man once said :
As part of #16DaysOfActivism it’s my job as a man to remind all men that male violence against women is a men’s issue

To say it’s a women’s issue is to blame women for our violence as men

We collectively are the root cause and the root solution to ending it.

Let’s get to work

About 70% of the entire MAGA social media presence is based in Eastern Europe or in third-world countries. The people operating these bot farms are paid by Putin.

You have been conned.

Finally
Former US military lawyers speak out:

"The Former JAGs Working Group unanimously considers both the giving and the execution of these orders, if true, to constitute war crimes, murder, or both."

JFC, this administration
A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.

Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.
