You see, what has to happen here is that Pretti’s family HAS to sue Miller for $100 million for defamation of their son’s character.
They’d win hands down, Miller would be bankrupted, and a serious message would be sent to all the other liars and criminals in this administration.

a not insignificant number of people on Threads seem to believe the snow storm was The Government's attempt to refreeze the Leviathan, the world-eating serpent, which was getting loose (to eat the world, I assume)

Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

This should be big news, but it’s barely a whisper.
The Trump admin is focusing on the wrong problem. The fraud isn’t w/SNAP recipients, it’s with outside scammers.
USDA let outdated SNAP cards stay vulnerable, and families lost about $555 million in food benefits, not to “cheating,” but to theft.

TikTok is now under US ownership and their new ToS reads like a guide to giving fascists everything they need to put you on a list.
They’re collecting information about immigration status, citizenship, sexual orientation, whether you’re trans or non binary and physical or mental disabilities.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Utterly baffled why it’s taken this long. European equity managers’ power of denial is truly Foxnewsian
Concern is growing on Wall Street that Donald Trump's belligerence and belittlement of Europe could take some of the biggest buyers of US equities out of the market. There are signs that’s already beginning to happen.
Wall Street Grapples With New Risk: A European Buyers’ Strike
US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told the elites gathered in Davos that the Trump administration believes globalization is “a failed policy” that left America behind. A day later, his boss, Presid...

god this is demoralizing
I read an interview today where Alison Bechdel talked about using chatGPT for a panel of her recent comic -- she prompted it and copied the results -- and I still don't know what to do with that. It genuinely feels in moments like this like so many of our art elders are failing us.
Catching up with what James Gurney, the Dinotopia artist, is up to these days. Pathetic.

Countless opeds about Mamdani being a "socialist" and are literally any of those publications talking about Donald Trump not just claiming to take over a country but deciding what companies are allowed/not allowed to operate in that foreign country?
Apparently Exxon won't have the privilege of having their stuff nationalized a third time in Venezuela bc Darren Woods told the truth at what was meant to be a performed loyalty session.

Horror fans will whine about how award bodies don't take the genre seriously, and then clap like seals for this.
Indy the dog from GOOD BOY just won 'Best Performance in a Horror or Thriller' at the Astra Film Awards, beating out Ethan Hawke, Sally Hawkins, Sophie Thatcher, Alison Brie & Alfie Williams.
He is the first animal to win a major film acting award.
