We're at a point where there are no cheap options to retreat to and no price points that guarantee quality. Every run-down studio is $1400, every fast food meal is $17, every luxury condo has peel-n-stick tiles, every $300 pair of boots falls apart. Endless expensive mediocrity.
Israel sowing: Fuck y'all
Die mfs
I'm stealing your house and your land
Israel reaping: we are being attacked , halp daddy they do war crimes
We fall down.
But we get up.
Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez:
You may have heard that Spain is alone. They’re the same people who said that when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed.
We are not alone — we are the first. Those who will end up alone are the ones defending the indefensible.
So, are the people who in 2023/24 drove their Childcrusher 5000 GTX* to the most expensive gas station in the county & posted photos of how much it cost to fill their 50-gallon** tank going to be doing the same thing on coming weeks and months?
I mean, this time it actually is the president’s fault

“MAGA’s fundamental shared quality is a total lack of theory of mind for other people” is a theory that keeps getting validated by reality - look at almost every decision they’ve made in the war with Iran, and how they seem constantly surprised by the unanticipated actions of other parties.

For twenty years I've heard the same reframe and for the same twenty years I've had a fairly popular ocean science blog that tracks how long readers spend on each page and the long wonky pieces have the best retention and are still read years later.
Hands down the BEST part of social media is when restaurants get to beefing lmfao!
She handled it how she was meant to. It’s bad policy. It’s unconstitutional policy that she upheld and performed exceptionally well per the Republican wants. She didn’t fall from grace, the people are fighting back and she was sacrificed to appease.
Slight diversion…but that headline does a disservice to men and women. The story is about a subset of Gen Z misogynists, not ‘men my age’. Framing misogyny as a generational male trait is part of the problem and risks normalising it, instead of calling it what it is.
I’m so tired of seeing people bash Bluesky for being an echo chamber when X is an actual intentionally constructed echo chamber that is demonstrably radicalizing people across the political spectrum who still use it
Costa Rica has shown it *IS* possible to bring back nature on a mass scale, as @thinkorswim.bsky.social outlines in this great piece.
Meanwhile in Ireland all we get is, at best, incremental change and fudging.
Why is Irish nature always just an afterthought?

Welp. I guess I’ll just stop using email too 🙃🫠
NEW: Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser (D) says Gov Jared Polis (D) offering clemency to Tina Peters "would be a grave miscarriage of justice and dangerous for free and fair elections."
Israel have murdered over 1,100 civilians in Iran in just a few days
When will our politicians and media tell the truth
Israel needs to be dismantled

This is not true.
As an avid WoW player. This has me rolling 😂
The badge of the London Necropolis and National Mausoleum Company. Surrounded by an ouroboros, a skull and crossbones sits above an hourglass and the motto "Mortus quies vivis salus". I washed out of Latin shortly after discovering Caecilius was in the fucking horto, but think it's loosely "peace for the dead, safety for the living". The whole design looks like it was outsourced to a 13yo metal fan, tbh.
Bring back proper railway branding, cowards!
Great Depression 2: Electric Boogaloo
'Tis lovely out there.
I love when American politicians say they have the greatest military in the world - lads, you spent $2.3trillion and 20 years to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
If they didn’t think our votes mattered they wouldn’t be trying to suppress them.
If they didn’t think we shaped the culture they wouldn’t be trying to minimize our impact.
Really wonderful to hear and so happy for you!
My governor keeps inviting businesses to #newmexico we have no water. And now this!

To kick off Women's History Month, I'm sharing a booklet that we made for our Radical Black Women of Harlem walking tour. It's free to download and you can organize your own self-guided tours using the booklet. bcrw.barnard.edu/publications... - made this when I was a researcher in residence.
We hate kids. Like SO MUCH. We vote for the guns. We vote for the bombs. We protect the rapists. We have LEOs physically restraining parents from trying to save their children in Uvalde. We just blew up a school in Iran. We love Jeffrey Epstein and his friends. They run the country.
Across different cultures, crows are often seen as signs of change, as if they appear when something is shifting, carrying a sense of mystery and transformation.
