My friend lives in this building and said it was truly terrifying. The whole building woke up to their building being broken into by federal agents all to grab some guy who’s posted about being anti facist.
After 6am this morning in Whittier, Minneapolis—FOUR BLOCKS from where Pretti was murdered.
18 agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) markings smashed an apartment window, ran in, and came out with one man.

The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.

Looks like there's a good chance we won't be sending a crewed mission to Mars by 2025 like Elon said!
"SpaceX has put off a mission to Mars planned for this year, shifting its focus to a long-promised lunar voyage for NASA."
"Last year, Musk called the moon 'a distraction' and said SpaceX is going 'straight to Mars.'"

JD Vance ruins everything
American star Alysa Liu overcame a delay en route to the Milano Skating Arena caused by Vice President JD Vance’s motorcade and finished second in the women’s short program at the Olympics team event.

What is America doing to hold the Epstein class accountable?

Trump doubles down on his racist video: I looked at the first part and it was really about voter fraud... Then I gave it to the people. Generally, they look at the whole thing, but I guess somebody didn't.

Which countries sent the most athletes per capita to the 2026 Winter Olympics?
Liechtenstein clears the field by sending 8 athletes from a population of 40,023, meaning roughly 1 out of every 5,000 Liechtensteiners is at the Olympics.
This is a deeply unserious and extremely important statistic.

@megelison.bsky.social once wrote a story called The Pill about a weight loss drug that made you shit yourself skinny with like a 10% (!!!!!) chance of shitting yourself to death. I think about that story every time i see wegovy commercials.
You've heard of semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy), tirzepetide (Mounjaro/Zepbound).
But there are new drugs coming, ones that leave these in the dust, and leave clinicians and scientists asking: Can people lose too much too fast? www.scientificamerican.com/article/new-...
By me.

The next wave of GLP-1 drugs are coming—and they’re stronger than Wegovy and Zepbound
The upcoming drugs CagriSema and retatrutide target multiple gut hormones and could cause twice as much weight loss than current treatments. But experts wonder how much is too much
