I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Don't believe so.

I mean... he might be, but that's not what this is trying to imply.

Yesterday I was told that the class I’m scheduled to teach this month, Confronting Oppression & Injustice, is no longer part of our curriculum. This is a required class yet there was no discussion, no faculty vote, just an email saying the class no longer exists. This is what it’s like in Texas now.

"By the way, watch out for the tea flavoured engine oil." is a great bit.

More than anything else in the OP I'm hoping this turns out to be an episode somehow.

I love this specific shot in the opening.

It looks like the cast stumbled upon a Sentai set and made the best out of it. #Zeztz

A simple four panel comic with a round character. Top caption reads Before you leave the house, check you have. Panel 1 shows keys with a banana keychain, labeled Keys. Panel 2 shows a green wallet, labeled Wallet. Panel 3 shows a blue phone, labeled Phone. Panel 4 shows the character holding a colorful tangled scribble, labeled The vague sense that you have forgotten something. A playful take on the keys wallet phone routine.

It definitely is clear at this point the law for ICE is "Whatever the fuck we say it is."

Marisa Kabas @marisakabas.bsky.social · 16h

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

We stopped tilting discs to watch rainbow fans wheel round. But it isn't our fault, they started making discs that didn't have them and then wondered why we stopped buying.

As I understand it, the ‘brains develop until they’re 25’ factoid simply means brains continue developing indefinitely, and 25 was the end point of the studies only because it was an age that everyone understood was well into adulthood. We need fewer credulous idiots giving credence to bigots.

Part 2 of the Gender Clinic Files is out, looking at the impact if Cass recommendations for adult services were introduced, affecting more than 32k young trans adults just from the current waiting list.

Huge thanks to @wearequeeraf.com & @whatthetrans.com for their work on this series.

Majority of adults waiting for Trans+ healthcare are under 25

Two-thirds of Trans+ people would lose care if all Cass Review recommendations implemented

This is the thing about ai. The benefits are nebulous hypotheticals but the costs are very high and immediate

I saw the dot coms crash from a front row seat. AI is running out of money way faster.

AI Data Centers Are an Even Bigger Disaster Than Previously Thought

An investment manager realized he made a crucial mistake — and that his grim prediction about AI investments may not have been cynical enough.

They're spinning this as a marketing fail but I think the real story is just that people are stupid as fucking rocks now fortune.com/2025/10/10/p...

Lay's drastically rebrands after disturbing finding: 42% of consumers didn't know their chips were made out of potatoes | Fortune

New bags—matte-ified and designed to look like wood planks (like a potato crate)—will hold the chips with revamped ingredient lists.

10 years ago we didn't know we were getting married at the courthouse, we thought we were just picking up a license for our Halloween ceremony. This is the moment we realized and it's one of my favorite memories.

Just an FYI it has been explicitly confirmed that Newsom has bot farms on his payroll astroturfing discussion about him with this exact set of claims “he’s the only one protecting queer people” “the left is to extreme for its own good” “not supporting Newsom is supporting MAGA”

Bye-Bye Mars @bye-byemars.bsky.social · 1d

He's the only one willing to protect them but you're too busy pushing extreme narratives that you'll let MAGA win again.
The left is too extreme for its own good
