Lebanon: Israel Unlawfully Using White Phosphorus The Israeli military unlawfully used artillery-fired white phosphorus munitions over homes on March 3, 2026, in the southern Lebanese town of Yohmor.

Human Rights Watch says they've verified that Israel has used white phosphorus on civilian populations in Lebanon.

A social media post discusses the catastrophic effects of the Tehran oil refinery bombing, mentioning toxic rain, Gulf War Syndrome after Kuwaiti oil fires in 1991, and the impact on Tehran’s 10 million residents.

Tehran’s oil fires will kill people for the next 30 years.
Benzene soaking into groundwater. PAHs settling into soil. Crops absorbing it. Acid rain. Children are getting hit hardest. Benzene is one of the most well-established causes of childhood leukemia we know of.

Earlier this year leaked video showed the inhumane conditions at the Baltimore ICE Holding Facility.

Today we conducted an unannounced oversight visit.

Here's some of what we learned:

No country in the world has reached full legal equality for women and girls | UN Women – Headquarters From protection against gender-based violence to equal pay, women and girls remain unequal under the law, as impunity for violations of their rights persists worldwide, said UN Women.

“No country in the world has reached full legal equality for women and girls.”

Read that again. Nowhere.

No one is free until all of us are free.

Trump says US Navy sank Iran's warship off the coast of Sri Lanka because "it's more fun" to sink ships than capture them.

Last year, Live Nation donated $500,000 to Trump’s inauguration fund.

“Post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection encompass…[cardiovascular]…abnormalities [that] occur even in previously healthy, non-hospitalized individuals, indicating that long COVID’s cardiovascular impact extends beyond the severely ill subset & poses a broader, population-level challenge.”

I can just about guarantee that any art that has a passionate fanbase of a few hundred people is superior in most every way to any piece of art that is popular and successful but not particularly beloved (except by undiscerning "consumers")

I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But...

...maybe there wasn't much planning?

Everything’s fine

Let me tell you something. Y’all are asking too many damn questions at every point of sale. I have to leave a comment, make a suggestion, donate to a charity, choose a method of payment three times and then multiple choice of ways to get a receipt.

Take the damn money and leave me alone.

one cool thing about having POTS is that sometimes i am so sore and shaky it feels like i lifted 350 pounds today but really i actually did nothing all day

Extra difficult to explain, because I generally don't announce it in advance. By the time it's happening I have limited ability to keep speaking and feeling like I can't get enough air.

My vocal fatigue is back in full force after resolving itself for awhile 🥲

It makes me have to put up an "away message" during IRL/phone conversations. Like you can keep talking, I will respond eventually but I need to rest awhile.

It's embarrassing and difficult to explain.

ICE has spun a massive surveillance web. We talked to people caught in it The Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE and Border Patrol, is using a broad web of surveillance tools — purchased as its budget has ballooned under this administration — to monitor, apprehend and intimidate the people it seeks to deport and the U.S. citizens critical of its policies.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

It's very nerve wracking because the paypal crew (Andreesen, Theil, and Musk) have very publicly said their dreams are to crash the entire united states government and economy so they can rebuild it as a technocracy, explicitly, for 20+ years.

pan of cute biscuits decorated to look like faces

same pan baked, a horrific fucked up mass of evil

how it started/how it's going

The White House shitter account posted a pro-iran war propaganda video that included clips of the yugioh anime, so I figure this is a good time to remind everyone that Kazuki Takahashi was staunchly anti-war and he died a hero, unlike any american in Iran right now.

There’s also Mortal Kombat in there

Given the American servicemember deaths and the Iranian civilian deaths, including schoolgirls, “Flawless Victory” is in particularly poor taste

Report: #COVID survivors at nearly 5 times the risk for kidney failure

SARS-CoV-2 infection was also implicated in new-onset chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, and end-stage renal disease.

Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...

DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."

But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

Cocoon Quest comes out next week??????? Somehow??????

I’ve noticed that word seems to be on the uptick lately. By both sides. I’m appalled when I see someone comment and I agree with most of it, but they use the R word. Please don’t do that, folks. Find another way to express your sentiment.
