TIL: The phrase "the dog that hasn't barked" originates from the short story "The Adventure of Silver Blaze" by Arthur Conan Doyle, in which Sherlock Holmes opines that a guard dog didn't bark during a crime where one would expect it to, therefore, the dog's owner is the criminal.

It’s the reproductive rights and dehumanizing message from the Right .
The Gallup poll finding that 4 in 10 (!) young women would like to move out of the U.S. is striking. But it's also probably a symptom of a deeper problem: a lack of confidence in the American system and its ability to self-correct. www.pbump.net/o/the-subtex...

Don’t fool yourself . They want outposts and oil deposits . Look at how they talk about Iceland. A “colonial” Coastal Venezuela would bolster US defenses

Quick point of clarification for pundits, politicians, journalists, & any others commenting on the Epstein Trump files:
The victims were NOT "young women". They were CHILDREN.
As such, they were not capable of giving legal consent. Sex without consent is rape.
Words matter. Get them right.

The level of pseudoscience bs I’m seeing on this site lately is concerning. If there is no site/study linked and the “news” is from a RAG maybe don’t repost? Some block for AI - I block for bs science .

Saw someone post that they didn’t want to take any aurora photos because it was cliché, everyone’s doing it
The sky’s full of mystical dancing lights, from particles miles above us, excited by a burp from our local star. You’re allowed to be excited about cool shit, and this is especially cool shit

Changes nothing for most of us. Those who need to wake up are fully vested in their cult.
If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

She’s being read in that he was a government asset to avoid prosecution.
Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?"
Leavitt: "I'm not going to detail conversations that took place in the situation room."

The double standard in this site is almost as bad as X . You allow hate speech and just put a moderation label on it. Gross.
The account owner of @sarahkendzior.bsky.social was suspended for 72 hours for expressing a desire to shoot the author of an article. The post, made 11/10, stated: "I want to shoot the author of this article just to watch him die." 1/2

This thread makes me so sad and confused. But my brain is hyperlexic so I never struggled with reading. I may be awkward and literal but my reading comp has saved my ass time and again.
ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

I am on my way home to Toronto and the aurorae are absolutely phenomenal.
If you are anywhere in the northern half of the continent, get outside and look up! Or better still, put your camera on a 10 second exposure and point it up.
