Y'all gotta read this to understand how unhinged and reality-free RFK jr was on Sunday. 👇
Angie Rasmussen@angierasmussen.bsky.social · 17h agoSunday: I’ll do a quick fact check of this insane RFK Jr interview Monday: Up to 40 lies & it was only a 3 min clip! Tuesday: Ready to defend my 2nd PhD thesis on fascist quackery That's why @saveamericamvmt.bsky.social & I are holding him accountable rasmussenretorts.substack.com/p/rfk-jr-is-...
The GOP goes on about protecting women in sports and then goes on to protect Max Miller.
honestly can't stress enough, as a former family law attorney, how depressingly common Max Miller's behavior and words are, right down to the petty fixation on custody procedure and rules when faced with allegations of shocking violence.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 19h agoRep. Max Miller: "When I was reported for child abuse of my daughter for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan."
1/12 On 5 August 2026, around 06:35 UTC, a #Falcon9 upper stage (2025-010D) will strike the #Moon. 🔭⚛️🧪 It is not an asteroid: it is known hardware that has been in orbit since January 2025, with a trajectory calculated to within a few seconds and kilometres. #Space #MoonImpact #SpaceDebris
Indeed. It found it interesting that people were saying Black voters would stay home and just allow Ken Paxton to have that seat. No way in hell that was ever gonna happen.

"History involves sorting and organizing hundreds of thousands of facts" I remain astounded by how loud and wrong people are about what history actually is.
‘The EU has come under fire for placing more demands on businesses, and rules that will ultimately force all content to be labelled given the rapidly growing widespread use of AI across Europe.‘ Please, spare us the sob story. If you can make it, you can label it. www.euronews.com/my-europe/20...
AI-generated label becomes mandatory in the EU
Companies creating or using AI-generated content have to label it clearly for users to know, as part of an EU guideline implemented on Sunday. #EuropeNews

I understand the desire to save time and money at the university. Cutting a four year degree down to three is a serious savings. Whether you actually absorb anything you were taught or are doing harm to yourself is another question.
“If students are using it to compose, which is the biggest tragedy of all, they’ll never learn to write. And their voice is stolen from them.”
Dave Eggers told OpenAI staff that ChatGPT was ‘silencing an entire generation’
He called AI writing “pastiche nonsense.”

Almost *everything* you see in this format, whether infinite power cubes or solar powered houses for the homeless that fold out of suitcases or French "bread libraries" for the poor is liberal catnip bullshit by content farms. Stop being idiots. Thank you.
Ex-PM Starmer said, in response to Raise the Colours terrorising people, ‘I am supporter of flags’, ‘I’m very encouraging of flags. I think they’re patriotic and I think they’re a great symbol of our nation’ and his family had ‘got St George’s flag in our flat’ www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...
Cllr Dr Alex Powell@apowelllaw.bsky.social · yesterdayThe campaign of harassment and intimidation Raise the Colours have undertaken against council staff, contractors, and members of the public as reported by the Clarion today is shocking if not surprising. Excellent reporting. oxfordclarion.uk/the-clarion-...
Glen "I had been falling in love with her for a long time, but I kept telling myself she's just a kid” Hansard. And he literally means “kid”. The guy was a creep. Condolences to those who loved him, but I’m not gonna celebrate that.
Exactly. MAGA's real objection to Markwayne Mullin was that he dared to suggest that with the right policy choices, immigrants benefit our economy. MAGA's whole mythology rests on the big lie that migration *cannot* be managed in the national interest by definition.
Nicholas Grossman@nicholasgrossman.bsky.social · yesterday“Mullin let slip a very dirty secret indeed: By reforming governing processes, we can broaden legal pathways for immigrants to work in the US in ways that would benefit our economy and our country.” MAGA was furious. Yet more evidence that the purpose of “mass deportations” is ethnic cleansing.
So after tomorrow can we stop with the public outpouring of grief and get on with believing women again? #speirgorm
The “best” thing about genAI (the quotes are doing heavy work here) is that it’s really lowered the bar on getting into hand-made art. Literally anything you make is better than ai. There’s never been a better time to throw away your fear and start learning that craft you’ve always wanted to learn.
easier to say on Bluesky than elsewhere, but Pittsburghers: you don’t need to root for the Steelers as long as this bum is the QB. JUST WALK OUT. you can leave!!! I hit da bricks last year and highly recommend it.

Great exhibit of how toxic masculinity is bad for men too. How does it help him to be this angry about random (and possibly imaginary) people who recall his appearance 19 years ago in one of his many popular films?

Thank you for fighting for this, Katie Phang. We need a competent DOJ. A vote for Blanche is a vote against the survivors.
Remember, most developed countries can already afford UBI and would in fact save a lot of money doing so. We don't need widespread AI use for UBI. I suspect some of the people who are saying we do are not actually interested in UBI but weakening resistance to AI and widespread data centers.
A shocking number of people believe, with zero evidence, that Israel is behind Moroccan migrants into Spain, which is just the Great Replacement conspiracy. Meanwhile, US Jewish orgs have declared war on Mamdani for accurately describing Netanyahu as a war criminal. www.haaretz.com/world-news/e...
