There's rumours circulating that Trump was gifted the Fairmont Palm Hotel which has been repeatedly hit.

But that's incorrect, Trump was gifted a different property (also nearby).

You know, the fact we have to clarify WHICH bribe hotel our shithead president was gifted at a time like this really should be all anyone needs to understand how evil the US is right now.

DIY Solidarity is open for applications March 1–31, 2026.

DIY Solidarity is a project that allows us to redistribute funds among DIY communities to challenge at least some of the injustices created by a global economic order that is completely out of balance.

It means that, every year, we have some funds available to support DIY projects built entirely on participant involvement and community support. No state funding, no corporate sponsorship, no NGO backing.

The project grew out of an inheritance that was consciously redirected back into the DIY scene. Since 2024, we’ve approached it as a practical tool for redistribution: moving resources from those who have had relatively easier access to them to communities and projects that need them more. We aim to spread what’s available across a range of initiatives, including bands and venues, zine makers and distros, festivals and gatherings, social centers, squats, rural communities and living spaces.

Applications are open through March 31. Previous recipients can apply again, but priority will generally be given to new projects.

Apply to get funding or learn more at https://diysolidarity.org

Wait, are forever wars patriotic again? I can’t keep track. Is war peace or is peace war? Fucking hell, y’all.

BREAKING: A US court has just sided with fossil fuel pipeline giant Energy Transfer and ordered Greenpeace International and Greenpeace entities in the US to pay them US$ 345 million.

This is a billionaire-backed attack on the right to protest. A thread ⤵️🧵

‘I live in constant fear’: surge in giant #sinkholes threatens Turkey’s farmers - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/feb/28/i-live-in-constant-fear-surge-in-giant-sinkholes-threatens-turkeys-farmers "Falling groundwater, extreme heat and water-intensive farming are accelerating land collapse, forcing a rethink in agricultural practices"

I have nothing good to say about Anthropic just like I have nothing good to say about Muskrat during his spat with the orange man, or any of the orange man's associates when he turns on them.

Anthropic knowingly partnered with the pentagon. Their other partner, Palantir, is probably the most evil tech company in the world, which, among other things, powers the ICE abductions of members of our communities. I can go on and on.

Anxiety through the roof as I’ve been texting all day with a friend who lives in Dubai.

The Emirates have been under retaliatory missile attack for hours… the first strikes targeted military bases but they have since moved to other targets. The Fairmont Hotel at Palm Jumeirah was hit by debris… my friend reports seeing jets overhead and hearing frequent loud booms.

You may not see this in the news but Reddit’s UAE community has tons of first-hand accounts: https://www.reddit.com/r/UAE/

"Great Satan" is too complimentary. We are Satan's Fuck-Up Cousin, Dirty Dennis, the Drunken Devil.

Living in a dumb country ruled by dummies sucks. They got mad at a middling technocrat nerd and burnt the world down.

Casey Means dropped out of her residency program.

She’s not a practicing physician.

She’s a “wellness influencer”.

She wants you to vibe your way to better health.

She’s skeptical of birth control, Advil and vaccines.

She’s not just unqualified, she’s dangerous.

The wellness to eugenics pipeline is well documented:

ICE kills on American soil.

DOGE has killed 800,000 by cutting USAID

They’ve murdered over 100 people in illegal boat strikes in the Caribbean.

Invaded Venezuela without Congressional approval.

Now Trump says US citizens may die in Iran.

You are expendable.

Everyone’s expendable under fascism.

It’s why we resist.

Wonder why anyone in Aotearoa NZ is celebrating RocketLab's launch. For his own gain and glory, Peter Beck (I don't see justification for his honourific) betrayed the trust of the komatua of Mahia Peninsula and sold us out to perhaps the least honourable country in the world these days. Here's the story if you haven't already seen it: https://northandsouth.co.nz/2021/03/14/rocket-lab-military/

aspberry time: I wanted to plant some more, so I looked up recommended varieties for North Carolina

only to find the official recommendation for raspberries in this part of the South is "DO NOT ATTEMPT."

Turns out I've been growing raspberries in defiance of natural law this whole time 🤷‍♀️

It is astonishing how many companies have decided almost all of their data work should be done by writing shit-tons of YAML, sometimes with bits of code jammed into random strings

And by astonishing I mean I'm going to be on the news the next time I see it
