Seven hours. All children.

EVERYONE IN NYC IS SINGING EMPIRE STATE OF MIND

[NBA @NBA]

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 53 YEARS, THE KNICKS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS 🏆

New York defeats San Antonio 4-1 in the NBA Finals, capturing their third championship in franchise history!

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

Musk as a trillionaire- anyone as a trillionaire- is a grotesque economic, moral and political problem. We cannot have individuals with that level of power, whatever they might have achieved.

[HLTCO @HLTCO]

The full uncut ending of the Knicks’ comeback is superb. Ridiculous to be honest.

[John Collins @Logically_JC]

This one hits hard.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

Israel just carried out another horrific massacre in South Lebanon.

Dropping massive bombs near Jabal Amel Hospital in Tyre — wiping out 3 apartment blocks full of civilians.

People are still buried under the rubble.

This is an American-backed, American-funded genocide.

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Israel now occupies more of Lebanon than Russia occupies of Ukraine.

But of course that's a 'good' invasion.

So there is silence.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline.

“Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet.*

Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming.**

Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”***

* in 1937, Guy Callendar published a paper showing that the world had already warmed over the last 50 years due to human emissions what he called “carbonic acid“ – what we now call CO2 – from burning fossil fuels

** If you are wondering, “how could humans be causing more than 100% of the warming?”

— it’s because, according to natural factors, the earth should be cooling right now.

So our emissions are offsetting that cooling AND causing all of the observed warming.

[Rushi @rushicrypto]

I genuinely don’t think people understand how insane this is.

In just 50 years, we’ve wiped out around 70% of animal populations on Earth.

Not hundreds of years ago.
Not ancient history.

In one lifetime.

Entire species disappearing.
Forests going silent.
Oceans being emptied.

And somehow the world treats it like just another statistic instead of a full-blown emergency.

That should scare all of us a lot more than it does.

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

Ken Paxton offered a man 1 day in jail for raping a little boy. Today Texas Republicans made him the GOP nominee for US Senate. The Republican Party protects people who rape kids.

[liam cunningham @liamcunningham1]

Are we getting this yet.

[Barry Malone @malonebarry]

Genuinely don’t think I’m being hyperbolic when I say these people need to be stopped, and fast, or we are headed to a very dark place.

“AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…”

Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share.

This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating:

“Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight.

A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money.

A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive.

A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy.

A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages.

You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth.
More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea.

In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything.
They’re simply too poor to afford bail.

Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only developed nation where that’s happening.

Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba’s.

Your children practice active shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell defense stocks to your friends.

Your minimum wage hasn’t changed in 15 years.

Your teachers work two jobs, your veterans sleep under bridges, and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you.

And now a convicted criminal — found liable for sexual abuse, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and running the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban — is thanking you for yet another disaster.

And you call Greenland badly governed?

Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world.
Nobody there goes bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because insurance refused treatment.

‘NATO wasn’t there when we needed them.’

When exactly was that, champ?
September 11?

Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU.

Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU.

Australia wasn’t even in NATO, and we still showed up. For twenty years.

And then you left at 2 a.m. without telling anyone and left everybody else to clean up the mess.

You don’t care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend, and you haven’t shown it a single ounce of sympathy.

So maybe before calling other countries badly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum siding salesman with a spray tan.

The only thing badly managed in this picture is your damn mouth.

And you still dare to lecture the rest of the world?”

[Alex Veremeyenko @alex_verem]

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Football should bring people together, not shut them out.

For the first time since the competition began, fans won’t be able to watch the Champions League final for free. That’s not right.

This is bigger than wanting to watch Arsenal in this historic final. It’s bigger than one club.

Hardworking people shouldn’t have to fork out for a subscription to watch this match.

I urge TNT Sports to reconsider and make the final next Saturday free to watch.

[Wall Street Memes @wallstmemes]

In America they shut down bee labs after they discover their venom cures cancer because cancer treatment is a $200B industry

[💙🌊 Zero Dark Twenty-Nine 🌊🌊🖋️🧫 @herotimeszero]

Epstein dies in prison while Trump is President.

The DOJ closes Epstein's case while Trump is President.

Ghislaine Maxwell is moved to cushy prison while Trump is President.

GOP kept voting not to show the Epstein files while Trump is President.

Congress forces DOJ to show the files, but they only show a small part and abruptly stop because Trump is president.

Do you get it now? Do you understand what's in those files? When you fight so hard to stop something, that something is horrific.

[Frankie Stockes @realStockes]

Days after bee venom was found to kill cancer…

[Stephen King @StephenKing]

PROVE THAT TRUMP ISN’T A PEDOPHILE.
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
