DLF-Presseschau heute morgen: zur Wahl am Weltfrauentag echauffieren sich mehrere Zeitungen darüber, dass man Manuel Hagel Aussagen von vor acht Jahren vorhält - das sei eine Petitesse. Frauenverachtung als Nebensächlichkeit: das hat sich in den letzten acht Jahren jedenfalls nicht verändert.

Trump tells CNN he’s not worried whether Iran becomes a democratic state | CNN Politics President Donald Trump told CNN Friday that Iran’s leadership has been “neutered” and that he’s looking for new leadership that will treat the United States and Israel well, even if that’s a religious...

The narc-dementia spiral has accelerated to a dozen covfefes per interview. And still they let this decrepit cult leader continue to play president.

Lesbisches Flirtszenario in der katholischen Morgenandacht im Deutschlandfunk. Wahrscheinlich unabsichtlich und unbemerkt, aber mal nicht der immer gleiche Phrasensalat mit Kindern oder Hochaltrigen.

They had no plan, they didn't think Iran would fight back, their justification for the attack changes by the hour, they have no exit strategy, and "effectively inexhaustible supply of certain munitions" might mean "not the kind we need to protect our allies and our own bases in the region, though."

Melania Trump chairing an UN meeting on "peace through education" is about as grimly absurd as Amanda Palmer posting faux-feminist outrage about the Epstein cabal.

A lovely tribute and a bangin' update.

The fascist trolls and bootlickers that call themselves the U.S. government understand quite well that the Trump cult will die with him. What they don't seem to understand is that it doesn't work like that with the Ayatollah.

Gorton and Denton by-election: it would seem that there's an alternative to Reform and Reform Light (Labour).

Pechstein did not compete in Milano-Cortina (and she's not exactly a role model, to say the least). The oldest female athlete who competed was Austrian snowboarder, Claudia Riegler, 52, she finished 16th in the PGS. (The PGS is not very injury-prone, so many athletes compete well into their 40s).

How are people genuinely surprised that men's hockey tends to be one of the most "conservative" and misogynistic sports? Did they watch Heated Rivalry and think it was a documentary?

That footage of Kash Patel celebrating with the U.S. Hockey Team is the perfect blend of fash grift and rape culture.

Demented Don wanted to play "big island, big boat" again, and I suppose this is the only vessel the Navy will allow him to send.

Vibe Theology: Die extreme Rechte und ihr Technopapst - feinschwarz.net Maren Behrensen analysiert die überschätzte aber keineswegs harmlose Politische Theologie von Peter Thiel.

Oh, but Peter Thiel realizes that he's building a new religion. That's his stated aim. He wants to outsmart the tehologians (he's not very smart, though)

Why an aria as rapey as "Nessun dorma" is still a staple of very serious events baffles me. But at least I can't listen to it anymore without hearing the words to "Nissan bromsa" by KAJ. Vastly improved the dullest part of the Milano-Cortina opening ceremony.

A theology/philosophy/queer studies collab where we argue that Christian Social Teaching would have all the conceptual resources to embrace queer folks, were it not for the cowardly narratives of the dogmatists.

When I hear fellow Germans lament that there's no meaningful resistance to Trumpism in the US, I'm reminded of Hannah Gadsby's words: Feels like a nose being lectured by a fart.

Another murder in broad daylight. It won't be enough to prosecute the shooters. It won't be enough to defund ICE. It should be regarded as a criminal organization. All who signed up for it should be treated like Nazi soldiers and Confederate traitors. Noem, Charles, and Bovino should rot in prison.

When two years of academic work vanished with a single click After turning off ChatGPT’s ‘data consent’ option, Marcel Bucher lost the work behind grant applications, teaching materials and publication drafts. Here’s what happened next.

What I'd like to know is: Did Nature publish this because they thought it was a damning indictment of ChatGPT? Or did they not want to rob the author of the opportunity to show his whole ass in public?
