Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

Some ignorant cowards in Reno, NV vandalized a rainbow bridge created by a group of Girl Scouts as a memorial for people grieving the loss of their pets.
Imagine being so threatened by a rainbow, in any context, that you’d destroy something meant to bring comfort and healing.

The U.S. has had a central role in ensuring the accuracy of the world’s long-term measurements of carbon in the atmosphere. Amid President Trump’s threats to climate research, global scientists are looking for alternatives.

The conditions in many immigration detention centers are horrifying.
Inedible food. Individuals forced to sleep on the floor next to overflowing toilets. Pregnant women shackled and suffering miscarriages.
It is a system designed to break peoples’ spirit, akin to torture.

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

This iconic Fabian Todorovic cartoon is still one of the best I’ve seen at illustrating the remarkable amount of space we surrender to cars, leaving little space left for everyone and everything else. The text added later makes the bonus point that many drivers still manage to complain about it.

A drunk driver on Guadalupe Island just made two vile racists jump right off the deep end of the pool into the Islamophobia trench.
They will exploit any tragedy to push their racist agenda. It's a disgusting lie. No one died, 19 were injured.

I am so disappointed that many businesses have revised their signs to say "BLIND service dogs only permitted"...I guess they don't want business from people who are epileptic, have PTSD or anxiety disorder, or have autistic children.

My law firm is currently intervening to defend against this in the first 8 lawsuits DOJ filed. More soon.

One of the many reasons for concern about the killing spree at sea is that the administration is effectively asserting a license for POTUS to kill outside the law those he labels “terrorists.”
A term this administration also applies to domestic political opponents.
