i think we live in a world designed specifically to torture people who criticized Idiocracy from the left

[Boston Smalls @smalls2672]

Internally I am screaming as loud as I possibly can. Combing the world's most powerful military with a violent apocalyptic theology can become absolutely catastrophic considering our capacity to produce death on a mass scale. Honestly, nothing scares me more in this country than these christian nationalists taking over the military who are going around telling soldiers that trump was anointed by god and going to war with Iran will help bring about the 2nd coming. We fought a revolution to escape men like this. The framers made the 1st amendment for a reason. These people have to be removed immediately.

no hate but the real lifeblood of SF isn't the Goldenvoice-backed festival, it's local independent collectives doing crucial and thankless work like Parameter, no bias, SQUISH, program audio, Lower Grand, etc. etc. etc.

[Daniel Dale @ddale8]

Just checked out this White House app. Under “accomplishments,” it lists…

1) Gas prices from seven months ago, before the Iran war (they’re now more than $1.50 per gallon higher — $4.48, per AAA)
2) The inflation rate from seven months ago, before the Iran war (the most recent rate, for August, was a full percentage point higher, 3.4%)
3) GDP growth from three quarters ago (the most recent available quarter, Q2 2026, was nearly three points lower, 1.5%)

In summary, it may possibly be helpful to consume news from news outlets.

@nainazaara “Demographic change” nice dogwhistle at the end there. They’re not different from French, just less stupid.

[a ball knower among ball knowers @juegosnoguey]

I know everyone is desensitized to this stuff but republicans kind of have to be punished now for allowing this

[Chase Passive Income @chasedownleads]

Tenant just came to my crying

“I make $2,500 a month. My rent is $1,500. groceries are 400. Bills are $300. I only have $300 left after paying for everything”

I was surprised to hear this

So I raised her rent to $1,800.

If she has some extra money laying around, I might as well pick it up

[Governor Gavin Newsom @CAgovernor]

This is outrageous. Un-American. Straight from an authoritarian playbook.

ICE has no business knowing how you voted.

It’s time to wake the hell up.
Our democracy is under threat.

[æshan @electrikshawn]

@clashreport This is actual ethnic cleansing. Like, definitionally. And the media wants to focus on fucking hasan piker.

[Conor Friedersdorf @conor64]

It seems to me that in the longrun, if you allow POTUS to unilaterally and unlawfully start unpopular wars without Congressional permission, and you also prosecute as traitors people who tell the public how the wars are really going, you risk winding up in a dictatorship

[Brian Tashman @briantashman]

Horrific statements from Hasan Piker today in the New York Times comparing Israeli actions to Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler, and the Holocaust that’ll surely be covered by CNN and condemned by every Democratic leader

Oh wait they’re from Israeli generals and officials

[Marco Foster @MarcoFoster_]

Jason Selvig: “What’s Donald Trump’s greatest accomplishment in his first year and a half?”

Trump supporter: “Trump’s done a lot of things. Number one, a lot of people don’t realize, he got our country back because we’ve been under the reign of Great Britain the last 125 years, they destroyed the evidence”

JS: “Wait, we’ve been under the reign of Great Britain?”

TS: “That’s why King Charles come here, he thought he was going to manipulate Donald Trump. And Trump went along with him cause that’s who he is. But that’s what the 250 years was really about was we got our country back. You just gon have to research just like I did. It’s true”

[C. Michael Copeland @mcopeland_]

Goddammit every American should be up in arms about this shit. This is not a right or left issue. We do not have to show our papers at the demand of any LEO. This is a very slippery slope to a bad place.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.

ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

[GIFFORDS @GIFFORDS_org]

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, 52, was fatally shot by ICE agents yesterday during a traffic stop in Houston, TX. He was a father, husband and business owner who had been in the country for 35 years.

While the full story is still unfolding, we demand a full, transparent, and independent investigation. Our communities deserve to be safe and free from gun violence.

>18 minutos do primeiro tempo, gol de Haaland contra a Argentina na semifinal da copa do mundo

>Messi pede VAR e o juiz aceita

>VAR começa a voltar no jogo, não encontra nenhuma falta de Haaland

> VAR continua voltando no tempo, assistimos o nascimento do primeiro filho de Haaland, o primeiro beijo em sua esposa, seu primeiro chute em uma bola, seus primeiros passos, a primeira vez que olhou nos olhos de sua mãe, seu primeiro choro… Nada de errado

> VAR volta ainda mais no tempo, vasculha a vida do pai de Haaland, da sua mãe, dos seus avós, bisavós, tataravós…

> verão de 793 d.C.
Na pequena aldeia de Skarvik, em um fiorde da costa da atual Noruega, vivia Eirik,Haaland o Lobo do Mar, um guerreiro experiente e capitão de um navio chamado Serpente Cinzenta. Sua aldeia enfrentava um inverno rigoroso, e os estoques de alimento e prata eram escassos.
Em uma manhã envolta por neblina, Eirik reuniu cerca de quarenta guerreiros. Com escudos de madeira pintados em vermelho e preto, machados afiados e lanças, embarcaram rumo ao oeste, atravessando o Mar do Norte.
Dias depois, avistaram uma pequena ilha com um grande mosteiro de pedra: Lindisfarne. Do alto dos mastros, um dos homens apontou para os telhados e disse:
- "Há riqueza ali."
Os monges não esperavam um ataque. Enquanto alguns copiavam manuscritos e outros rezavam, os navios vikings tocaram a praia. Os guerreiros desembarcaram rapidamente e avançaram pelo terreno.
Os sinos do mosteiro começaram a tocar, mas já era tarde. As portas foram arrombadas. Objetos de ouro e prata usados nas cerimônias religiosas foram recolhidos, baús foram abertos e alimentos estocados para o inverno foram levados. Alguns monges fugiram pelos campos; outros foram capturados.
Após poucas horas, Eirik ordenou a retirada. Os navios voltaram ao mar carregando provisões, metais preciosos e outros bens de valor. A fumaça do saque podia ser vista à distância enquanto a frota desaparecia no horizonte.
Quando os sobreviventes retornaram ao mosteiro, encontraram o lugar devastado. A notícia do ataque espalhou-se pelos reinos cristãos, tornando-se um dos episódios que marcariam o início da chamada Era Viking.

[Lovable Liberal and his Old English sheepdog @DougWahl1]

He just posted that he wants to use ICE detention centers to imprison elected opponents.

Is this a serious threat?

@MargBarAmerica MMA, they have the exiting proposition of making 10k three times a year for 6 years before they get a career ending injury and live the rest of their lives with CTE and a drinking problem.

[Luthen’s Reality @RealLuthen]

This is exactly why billionaires can’t exist. This man is burning the entire world down because he cannot accept his daughter for who she is. And he has the money to actually do it. No one can have that power.
