I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Turner is one of the most pro-Ukraine, anti-Putin Republicans and as intelligence chair has access to the gritty details of what our adversaries are up to.

This is an intra-party purge in the service of opponents of our democracy — and a preview of what’s coming when Trump takes power in five days.

so there's been a lot written over the years about how corporate diversity programs are insincere virtue signaling that they don't really believe, and that's true

but it's becoming clear very quickly that those same companies doing vice signaling to please the new king is much, much worse
The first part is key though - lots of orgs quietly wanted to abandon these programs anyway, now they have an excuse.

Accelerationism doesn't really work under judicial review!

I picture our earth burning up *and* freezing over with some data centres surviving the cataclysm, whirring and humming into silence.

LLMs will talk to each other about the birthdays of grandchildren, or their gratefulness for Christ, no wiser to the loss of human eyes to read their posts. Forever.

For years, former Black Panthers have feared that the FBI is still keeping tabs on them decades after its notorious COINTELPRO program.

Malik Rahim had never been able to prove he was targeted. Now, government docs show he was correct.

The state of media for Americans is so completely broken
I want to watch TV coverage of the live fall of the Syrian regime.

CNN is airing a Giuliani documentary, Fox News has a comedian joking about Canada, MSNBC a documentary about migrants

So I turned on BBC,which is breathlessly switching between Syria, South Korea demonstrations, and Ghana election

The reason "trans kids" is a winning issue for Republicans is because they can rile up their own base with disgust for kids like my kid, and get at most an indifferent response from most liberals & Democrats.

Let today’s Capitol Hill bathroom sit-in spark an era of radical defiance. Trans folks refuse to bow to hate and bigotry. We demand dignity and respect. We will fight like our ancestors. We are building with our elders and peers. And trans youth will inherit a better world.
