Rats often flee ships & buildings moments before disaster. Their acute sensitivity to vibration, heat, & pressure let them detect danger long before they risk becoming trapped. The pattern is so consistent, the Navy entered it in maritime logs as empirical warning, not myth.

Watch the rats 👀

They always start with free speech. It sounds reasonable, doesn’t it? Free speech? And they can use it to shut down anyone who criticises them, because it’s all “free speech”

After “free speech” it’s “protecting women and girls”

And then it’s whatever they actually wanted.

The right-wing campaign group that helped topple Roe v Wade in the US is now working to roll back abortion laws in the UK, with the help of Nigel Farage.

Its first step? Trying to create a debate around "free speech"

Unfortunately the warnings were ”being cops” and “having tear gas”

A federal judge ordered federal agents last week to issue two warnings before using tear gas.

Witnesses said they heard no warnings and none can be heard on videos, @chicago.suntimes.com reports

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵

Someone on Twitter replies to me: "meh. buy american or stfu."

Two hours later, in a separate thread, the write: "$30 for a single button-up is ridiculous unless it is decent quality silk."

I know it's basically just bait so whatever but if you use "thought police" unironically you should be forced to sit in a corner without your phone for a full hour

Sally Jenkins post with a link to whatever awful Atlantic piece about Bari Weiss reading "Ratio me. Please. It's a badge of honor. If you don't like a link, go follow some chicken-heart who needs the approval of the thought-police. Caitlin Flanagan of

I've filled this out

The questions are so tacitly and often directly pro-AI that I think all Canadian anti-AI folks need to fill this out to let them know

I pretty much left the same message in each text box, which spoke on the negative social, mental, environmental aspects of AI, with sources

Canadians – If you have some time this long weekend, fill out this godawful government survey on AI, which itself seems to have been written by AI trained exclusively on buzzword-laden LinkedIn posts.

Nico Mara-McKay 🦇 (they/iel) @nicomaramckay.com · 4d

Canadians: The federal government is seeking public input on how AI should be developed and used in business, research, and the military.

If this scares the shit out of you, please let them know:

The image is a chart titled "HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY" and features nine different artistic depictions of monstrous or ghostly faces, each expressing various degrees of horror and distress. These faces are drawn with a sketch-like, scribbly style in red and black, giving each a distinctly eerie and unsettling appearance. Each face is numbered from 1 to 9, allowing someone to pick a number that matches their current emotional state, aligning with the theme of the chart.

Back in the 90s when neo-nazi skinheads were everywhere, people wore colored laces in their Doc Martens to signify which side they were on. Red meant nazi, one black one white meant anti-racist, blue meant neutral, and green meant you like frogs and were anti-fascist. Been thinking about that a lot.
