I don’t say “huh?” because I prefer the more sophisticated “I will, yeah.”

Why does every member of the judiciary need to learn this lesson individually
Molly Roberts@mollyroberts.bsky.social · 12h agoI have repeatedly on the record rejected plaintifs' requests for notification order because I told them, I told the American public, "You can trust the government." I do not understand why this went foward on Saturday. Why did this go forward on Saturday?
Seems bad that the security services are being used to persecute opposition leaders
Sam Bagenstos@sbagen.bsky.social · 15h agoThis story makes it sound like the major problem is that the Trump Admin did this w/in 60 days of an election. Yes, that's a real abuse. But the major problem is they're basically threatening to denaturalize an opposition legislator, based on racist insinuations. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/12/u...
I saw this being shared online and wondered that I had never seen that photo of Hitler before. I tried to find it online and could not. At some point in my searches, I broke my rule against dealing with AI and asked Google if it was real.
@tonygroves.bsky.social hasn't posted since Ukraine took down the Russian bot farms. I knew the anti Cork propaganda was a Russian Op Slava Corkonia
Uh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?
Let’s see if someone actually watches the video :)
Hook it to my veins.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@mayor.nyc.gov · 2d agoCancelling a subscription shouldn't be this hard. If you can sign up with a click, you must be able to cancel with one. Head to nyc.gov/click-to-cancel to file a complaint against any business that makes it hard to cancel a subscription.
I wonder how many people on Twitter and Instagram will suddenly not be posting? I wonder how many less likes Farage and Reform will be getting?
David Earl Williams III@dewforpolitics.bsky.social · 2d agoUkrainian strikes hit several Russian data centers, knocking millions of suspected bot accounts offline.
What a weird world we live in - Ukraine hits a data centre deep in Russia - Irish twitter users see racist posts about IPAS centres in Offaly fall off a cliff
Alina Pereverzieva 🇺🇦@perevaa.bsky.social · 2d agoAnd now the best part: Bot traffic from the #Yandex network has plunged to near zero following the strike on its Vladimir data center. Bot traffic includes automated requests from search crawlers, scrapers and other online services. Twitter must be a ghost town by now.
The "they got away with it" narrative is the same as the "teflon don" narrative. They never just get away with it because of some inherent skill or clever manoeuvring. They get away with it because they are always let get away with it by people their corruption serves.

ICC President Tomoko Akane (Japan) was one of the judges who issued an arrest warrant against Vladimir Putin in 2023. She was ‘jailed in absentia’ by a Russian Court last December. Now she is being personally sanctioned by the US.

How's he meant to enjoy his live streaming of a public execution now! This is so unfair by the Nobel Peace Prize committee.
Raw Story@rawstory.com · 4d agoDonald Trump has once again been passed over for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Saying Trump has been passed over for a Nobel Peace Prize is like saying I've been passed over for the papacy.

As expected, the Prime Minister's promise to sort out the mess of funding for Jodrell actually meant nothing - it seems the government would like it to be some sort of heritage theme park when you can go and see where we used to do science. 🔭
Margot Finn@eicathomefinn.bsky.social · 4d ago'The University of Manchester is seeking alternative funding sources to keep scientific work at Jodrell Bank going after hearing that lost UK Research and Innovation funding would not be restored despite interventions by the prime minister.'

When I see people on here saying "Politician X should die in prison", no matter who that Politician is I just think those people belong on twitter. It's complete cringe.
Your gentle reminder that the selection at @bookshop.org is just as good as at Amazon, and that using them doesn’t enrich someone who’s never missed an opportunity to fall on his knees and kiss an authoritarian’s jackboots. Seriously, what’s the point of “fuck you” money if you’re this servile?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoBAIER: The president says 'SI.' Are you into SI or AI? BEZOS: I do like SI, because 'artificial' is not a very flattering thing. Like, nobody wants an artificial sweetener, artificial flavoring.
Getting pretty sick of the outages here if I'm honest.
