Insurance giants Allianz and Aviva have dropped coverage for Elbit Systems after months of direct action. Campaigners say sustained pressure works—real consequences for companies tied to war crimes.

If your complaint of blusky is mainly that its "boring" compared to Twitter then I strongly suggest u rlly think about all the time u waste endlessly scrolling thru so much bullshit on that site. Please learn to not always be on social media 24/7.

One of the biggest reasons this time of year is difficult is because of the Dakota 38. In total, it was 40 Dakota men. But the other 2 were killed later. 38 Dakota were killed, on the day after Christmas. Less than a week before Linclon signed the Emancipation Proclamation.
Adding that you’re posted up in a Lakota person’s mentions pontificating on how Lakota sovereignty works on *December 24th.* we’re about 48 hrs away from the 163 anniversary of the largest mass execution in U.S. history, ordered by Abraham Lincoln & perpetuated on Dakota men & this is your move.

Now, tonight's local urgent needs. Just one.
I need 7 people with CashApp who can afford to give a family in need $50 each. Their windshield is badly damaged, and replacement will be ~$400.
They're raised $50 toward it; 7 ppl matching it will cover it.
CashApp ONLY, here: yoursbTruly

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.
!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social:

the enthusiasm for generative AI would not have been possible without prior decades of capitalist conditioning to view works of art as products, rather than acts of culture and shared human life
I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.
I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

More people have died in ICE detention in 2025 than any year since 2004.
The government has a legal and moral obligation to provide people in its custody with medical care and livable conditions.

Four ICE detainee deaths in four days spark alarm as arrests grow
At least 30 detainees have died in 2025, prompting concerns about deteriorating conditions at facilities even as the agency has received an infusion of cash from Congress.
