For some reason, the X account for DHS is trolling Sabrina Carpenter. This is not long after DHS trolled Olivia Rodrigo and Theo Vaughn.
It’s rage bait for these celebs and their fans and it’s gross.

War crimes don't need a war, not least because they can involve acts that would be acceptable in wartime, that are unacceptable when targeting civilians or outside the context of war.

Sembra quasi normale che gli Usa mandino a negoziare con Putin due amici immobiliaristi di Trump, di cui uno suo cognato.

I've been working with Demos to turn the Verification, Deliberation, and Accountability (VDA) Framework into a report that lays out how it can be used to diagnose the state of democracy and build solutions around building the capacity for those functions in institutional and public spaces.
🧵 Across the world, democracy isn’t just under pressure, it’s facing epistemic collapse: a breakdown in the shared ability to know what’s true, to reason together and to hold power to account.
A new guest paper by @eliothiggins.bsky.social and @drnataliemartin.bsky.social explores how to fix it.
