Uh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?

This is just a fucking carjacking. How the hell was he supposed to know it was a state sponsored carjacking. what the fuck are we doing here.

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

This is how you write honest journalism.

So on this evening of Thursday, October 8, 2026, I see both Jon Ossoff and Abdul El Sayed utterly massacring their respective MAGA turd election opponents in their debates. And for the first time in a while, I am proud to be an American.

Collins has his head down through all of this, presumably mapping out what he’ll be doing as a private citizen next year

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4d ago

OSSOFF: Mike Collins is one of the most extreme members of Congress. He's a Trump puppet election denier. I want to hear if Mike still believes the 2020 election was stolen. What do you say Mike? COLLINS: ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

Jesus… he’s really, like, *completely senile* at this point, huh? This is legit 25th Amendment stuff.

Cue the accusations of antisemitism by these ::checks notes:: …Jewish students… in 5, 4, 3…

Prem Thakker ツ@premthakker.bsky.social · 4d ago

New: Jewish students announce a boycott Columbia/Barnard Hillel, as it hosts an Israeli group "encouraging Jewish students to move to settlements on land Israel seized from Palestinians." Says the group recently demolished homes, displacing Palestinian families & it intends to demolish dozens more.

Amazon’s profiling data is… hilarious. Ya got me, Amazon… you sure got me on that one. 😂

Failson Chad using daddy's money to buy an acting career and turning a once-proud studio into mid chode slop in doing so is peak MAGA.

Never forget that David Ellison's Skydance Media was originally created so he could be an actor. Skydance's first film was 'Flyboys' starring James Franco and... David Ellison. David and his daddy invested $60m to make Flyboys. It grossed $17m Here's a bit of David's acting:

I got my pre-election vote-buying bribe in the mail yesterday. Apparently it's $500 **per household member who got Obamacare unsubsidized** (so mine was several times that). He *says* it's an ACA Marketplace "surplus" that he's "returning." I wonder if any of that isn't entirely made up? 🤔

"White first-generation Americans are Americans, while native-born people like Abdul El-Sayed aren't, because they're not white." This dude just comes right out and says the quiet part out loud.

The Ku Klux Klan says support for its message is growing as it seeks to rebrand around family and faith. Al Jazeera's Phil Lavelle reports on how much influence the group really has ahead of the US midterm elections.

Introduced my 6 year old to Star Wars, and we just finished the 4K of Return of the Jedi, and I am physically angry at how badly George Lucas defaced that movie. Goddamnit.

Get ready for a whole lot more of this in the coming years. MAGA as a culture was about casually breaking the law, knowing you wouldn’t face any consequences because the regime would let you. That regime is crumbling, and there’s going to be a whole lot of accountability when it’s gone.

She got an apology, did she? I wonder how the douchebags suggesting she was lying about the whole thing are going to explain away a text in writing verifiable through cell provider records? 🤔

A former Cornell University student who alleges she was gang raped at a fraternity in 2024 received a text-message apology from one of the brothers soon afterward.

Hey legal and finance Bluesky: I just got a court notice of a class action trial verdict against Elon Musk for manipulating the stock price of Twitter in 2022. If you sold shares (or bought puts or sold calls) from May-Oct 2022, you can get some of Elon Musk's money. Here are the docs.

Remember the obviously-innocent olympic canoe guy who the brownshirts tried to pretend vandalized the Reflecting Pool to save face for Cheeto after his horrifically botched repair job went bad? The court just dismissed the case against him *with prejudice* so the brownshirts can't do it again.

Just got a class action notice in the mail that a lawsuit against Elon Musk went to trial and a jury found Musk manipulated the stock price of Twitter in 2022?? How did this not make the news?? Now I need to see if I get a slice of the Musk pie 😝

MAGA turd Senator accuses Jack Smith of perjury because… MAGA turd confused the name of an NBA team and a college basketball team. One might say Schmitt…. Schmitted himself.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2w ago

🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡 Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong. Here's the whole sequence:

This guy is a Nazi. Straight up. Not an “authoritarian,” not a “fascist,” not a “white nationalist.” Dude is a straight up Nazi. And the Republican Party is infested with Nazis, and currently run by and for Nazis. It is a Nazi party.

Here's a map of how iron ore mined in Minnesota moves (the red lines). Note the markers for where steel facilities are located, they're where they are because you have to move the stuff on ships. There are no steel mills in Iowa of any size because you can't get the fucking stuff it's made of there

The Wall Street Journal@wsj.com · 2w ago

Exclusive: President Trump will announce a Minnesota company’s plan to build a $15 billion steel mill in Iowa, as he looks to counter voter frustration with the economy ahead of the midterm elections.

In short, for lay-people: Israel is not Judaism. Judaism is not Israel. Zionism is not Judaism. Judaism is not Zionism. You can be Jewish and not Zionist. You can be Jewish and not support Israel or its current far-right govt, or its atrocities. Protesting/boycotting Israel is not antisemitism.
