'We know what it's like': How Appalachian towns are learning to help each other after floods

    • Demonstrators block traffic in front of DC SpaceX office

    Jump

  • Too bad "block traffic" isn't a euphemism for uhhh using a flambé thrower in front of SpaceX office. We all know SpaceX are uhhh... hungry. They could use some flambé.

    Jump

  • Isn't Kroger the one who wants to raise prices on shoppers based on their face?

    • Massachusetts Tesla charging stations intentionally set on fire, investigators believe

    Jump

  • Ya think?

    • how's your week going, Beehaw

    Jump

  • Woke up early for what I thought would be a legal contest over a lying highway patrol about a traffic violation. I've got receipts and a list of questions for his bitchass. Turns out it was only an arraignment. Hardest eyeroll ever.

    • FDA Announces Recall on Cat Food Over Bird Flu Risk

    Jump

  • Ugh... yea.

    • Serbian MPs set off flares and smoke grenades inside parliament

    • Mental health crisis ‘means youth is no longer one of happiest times of life’

    Jump

  • Did a group of lead poisoned boomers conduct this study? I doubt childhood was consistently ever great for everyone. Abuse was disgusting during the mid* to early 1900s. Pretty sure it was worse before.

    • No-code tools for activists

    Jump

  • This is great!

    • Mozilla says its new Firefox terms don’t give it ownership of your data

    Jump

  • I learned a new term today that illustrates this move. Warrant canary. When a company disappears a promise it's like a canary in a coal mine.

    • Ron Perlman on Hellboy, the LA fires and Trump: ‘A snake-oil con-artist who’d sell you bad vodka and swampland in New Jersey’

    • The Senate Passed The TAKE IT DOWN Act, Threatening Free Expression and Due Process

    Jump

  • I guess it's still gotta go through congress? Call your rep. Adding it to my list of shit to call about.

    • Would the gutting of entitlement programs actually be what we need to move forward?

    Jump

  • Idk... I am so mad at my asshole boomer in-laws, my shitty clueless friends (predominantly white but not completely), and even my partner and his bro friends that I'm just like... whatever. I think it needs to fall hard. These people are beyond rescuing. I am so sick of everyone. I don't wish ill will on the rest of us, though. I've just run out of empathy for the majority.

  • Neat. Need it in Cali.

    • Angry Democratic donors turn off the flow of money

    Jump

  • "Democratic strategist Steve Schale, who served as the director of the pro-Biden super PAC Unite the Country, attributed some of the donor reluctance to fatigue, which he said happens after every election."

    Fuck this guy in particular.

  • He worked with the nazi party in January?! smfh. I grew up in Bavaria and am surprised to see they're not AfD. Maybe not. I guess I'm not surprised to see the part of .DE closer to Putin hell hole (also ex-communist) is the blue nazi.

    Also... "Crime and immigration, street bullying, the soaring cost of housing and fears of military conscription if Germany goes to war are all issues driving younger Germans away from the centre."

    YEP! Better vote harder in your worst interest. Humans are a mess.
