Joke of the day from Moscow: Russia tried to unveil its first humanoid AI robot, Aidol. Key word: tried. The robot collapsed during its debut, forcing organizers to cut the presentation short. Their rushed attempt to lift the prop only made things worse.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

This is what those 8 Dems just voted for
A return to a time when people died or became disabled because they couldn’t afford care
People are terrified tonight that they will have to start rationing meds
That they will lose their medical insurance
That they will die
Healthcare is a human right!

There is no excuse for giving in to a bad deal —
especially after voters turned out in record numbers last week to elect Democrats on the promise that they would stand up and fight for working families.

I'm the spouse of an air traffic controller and I could not be more livid at the news that Dems might cave. I called and left voicemails for my Dem senators. If my family can hold the fucking line, so can they.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

I interviewed joke presidential candidate Vermin Supreme before the New Hampshire primary in 2016.
He always runs on mandatory tooth brushing. So I asked the obvious follow up: What about flossing?
“You can get anything through the House,” he said. “But we’ve got to be realistic with the Senate.”

Why the eff is he reading the oath of office at a sportsball game, especially when he’s done the complete opposite of it since he’s been in office. He’s absolutely fucking the people he’s suppose to govern and starving even military families.

Karoline Leavitt on what she expected for today’s demonstrations: “Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, violent criminals.”
Scott Bessent: “Most unhinged in the Democratic Party”
Mike Johnson: “The pro-Hamas wing, the antifa people.”
NYPD: More than 100,000 protesters; zero arrests.
