Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE and their owner is helping to develop military AI. Maybe hit that "cancel my account" button?

Spotify is now running recruitment ads for ICE.

It’s time to cancel your account.

by this time next year, we want ICE agent to be one of the most miserable, soul destroying, hated jobs in america, we want parking enforcement to look like a dream job by comparison

GHOULLIKEHELLMACHINE @golikehellmachine.com · 22h

the thing is, all that knock off amazon operator gear you bought to look tough and scary just looks fucking silly when you are being gyrated at by someone wearing an inflatable frog costume and being mooned by a naked bagpiper on a unicycle, it just doesn’t work, the self image cannot hold

It should not be understated how much clever shit like this actually annihilates morale at places like ICE/CBP.

Getting made fun of like this on national television while people laugh at you is.. well, you may call it victory wine, but it ain't.

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Thomas Lecaque @tlecaque.bsky.social · 2d

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

Here’s how tariffs work. Your costs go up, and that money gets transferred to the wealthy.

Whether you’re progressive, liberal, leftist, libertarian, communist, socialist, moderate, democrat, conservative, Christian, atheist, Gen Z, Boomer… we have the same enemy. It’s the oligarchs.

Neolithic people practiced astronomy to align megalithic stone structures with celestial events, using them as complex calendars and ceremonial sites.

Welcome back to the 'don't look now but the sky's doing weird shit' part of the year

The aurora borealis (northern lights) as two distinctive shapes over a mountain. One purple spike into a more diffuse green wave. Both very clear and strong.

Coping with the fact that tomorrow is Monday by convincing local strangers to send me pictures of their pets throughout the week.

Chalk art on a sidewalk of a multcolored burst of angular lines, under which "GOOD DOG" is written in fluorescent yellow, pink, and black with an arrow pointing up to the line burst, encouraging people to put their dogs in the middle and take a photo because sharing pet pictures makes the world a better place. At the bottom of the sidewalk it says "SHOW US YOUR DOGS!" with the handle of the art instagram @rocks_on_the_block

Jesus shit-jumping Christ. Do we want oligarchs focusing intense light on specific locations like kids burning anthills with magnifying glasses? Because this is how we get oligarchs focusing intense light on specific locations like kids burning anthills with magnifying glasses.

Ea-Nāşir's perfidy seems eternal!

Comic

Panel one. Stick finger singing, "Raindrops on rose/ And whiskers on kittens."

Panel two. Same stick figure holding pot and singing, "Bright copper kettles leave/ ...Flakes on my mittens!?"

Panel three. Same figure still holding pot and singing, "Hey, these are stone with a copper veneer!"

Fourth panel. Same stick figure has put down pot and is singing, "I've been bamboozled by Ea-Nāşir!"

We’ve reported extensively on how the FDA allowed foreign drugmakers to send generic medications to the U.S. from factories with filthy labs and contaminated equipment.

This month, we’re digging deeper and could use your help. THREAD/
