New: Police in Wisconsin used Flock to create a pretext to search a man's car for weed. Their justification? He drove from Wisconsin to Michigan, a “known source state for marijuana as it is legal there,” and Flock showed he "travels to Michigan frequently." www.404media.co/cops-used-fl...

It keeps happening... It'd be great if these companies could spend a little bit more time on network security and a little less time vibe coding.

Tom Hiddleston’s Pompeii docudrama is something. It’s hysterical if you pretend it’s a 1970s disaster miniseries. We’re casting all the roles. Ernest Borgnine, Gene Hackman, Faye Dunaway, Bea Arthur as the baths owner.

May I point out that both El-Sayed and Stevens are Millennials. Generational shift. It's here. It's time. November up here won't just be about progressivism vs. fascism. It will also be about the future vs. the past.

Three Texas Senate debates have dates: Sept 22 Rio Grande Valley, Oct 6 Dallas, Oct 13 Austin. Talarico accepted all three. Paxton's campaign says he'll debate but hasn't confirmed a date. Agreeing to debate and agreeing to show up are two different things.

It is 2006. I am 22. The US is mired in a costly Forever War. A predictable historic market collapse looms. I do not have health insurance. It is 2026. I am 42. The US is mired in a costly Forever War. A predictable historic market collapse looms. I do not have health insurance.

here’s the thing about max miller: he’s just your run of the mill MAGA chud who’s used to doing whatever he wants with zero consequences. but now he’s actually being forced to explain himself and claw his way out with excuses that would pass muster in Trump world but not with normal people.

Soon

👏👏👏 Keep up the pressure.

NEW: Republican officials were set to vote on a plan to cut almost half of Election Day voting locations in Tarrant County, a major Texas battleground county. But all that changed when outraged voters who packed the meeting room demanded their voting locations remain open.

i sent this to my gf, who is a (real, credentialed) dietician and she said "I can’t believe a real person said this shit totally seriously"

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

Republicans and President Trump kicked nearly 600,000 Texans off food assistance with the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill." More than half of them are children.

SNAP Tracker: People Are Losing Food Assistance as the Harmful 2025 Republican Reconciliation Law Is Implemented

SNAP participation nationwide fell by more than 4.5 million people (nearly 11 percent) between the law’s July 2025 enactment and April 2026, based on the latest month of data.

Black users who accurately predicted that most of the site would forget they were here inviting people and building this place from day one, too A whole lot of the people who were here in that first March 23 wave that have totally disappeared

Adam P Knave@adampknave.com · 2d ago

Yes. Trans, queer, furry users totally 100% did a lot of work to help cement this place and its culture. But when day that and you don’t include the large number of black users who have since been run off even though they were just as important, you dishonor the start of this place further.

And there’s every campaign ad for the next three months sorted

Cornyn: "As to the idea it could be revived in the future, I think it's highly unlikely that could happen without the cooperation of the DOJ. And I think Mr Blanche gave us the assurances that it was dead and would not be revived and in this case we have no alternative but to take his word" 🙃

John’s an old gelding. Sad. He could’ve ended is career in a blaze of glory but no. He chose the coward’s path.

Transphobia is anti-feminist and this needs to be called out more. Transphobia literally supports the patriarchy.

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.

Alas I didn't pull anything off for this to happen. The page is owned by Warners. I'm just the cheerleader.

This. If you think protesting racism is protesting America, you might not like what that says about you…
