The food is contaminated.

The medical supplies are contaminated.

If you’re thinking “I will just wash everything more to be safe”… think again.

The soap is contaminated with bacteria.

This was always the goal of deregulation.

Flood the zone so people can’t keep up.

It’s a cull:

Given the outrageous, dangerous, and outright false statements made about how the polio (and other) #vaccine was a "fraud" (at the Children's Health Defense conference), here's a reminder of what a massive success it was.
RFK Jr. & his minions must be stopped from destroying the US healthcare system.

People who think "anarchy" means a descent into violent chaos are people who have read zero books on anarchy by people who have defined and adopted the philosophy.

So many alternative ideas on organizing society have been poisoned by those who benefit most from the way our society is currently structured.

We should all read books about ideas we disagree with, and accept those authors genuine intent. Then we can disagree honestly with the ideas, rather than dishonestly with their caricature.

This is straight out of Handmaids Tale.

A high school trying to force girls to disclose the dates and lengths of their menstrual cycle.

Don’t comply? You lose a grade.

There’s absolutely no reason a school needs this information other than to exert control over our bodies.

Tierra Walker died from pre-eclampsia because healthcare workers refused to intervene due to the Texas abortion ban

While suffering seizures, a HCW said to tell her husband: “Can you go tell him that this is all in her head?'" 

They psychologized a life threatening complication until it killed her.

Her family is suing the hospital, doctors and AG Ken Paxton.

It’s difficult to imagine a more blatant violation of the First Amendment than Trump banning news outlets from the People’s House for criticizing the government.

These outrageous attacks only show how scared he is of an informed public.

Sensitive UK police data vulnerable to ‘compromise’ by US government and foreign actors - https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/sep/18/sensitive-uk-police-data-vulnerable-to-compromise-by-us-government-and-foreign-actors well, doh: many of us have been warning about this for years...

What Calibre developers have done here is an affront to the human act of creation, and no less than a fascist attack on art. I do not believe that to be even slightly an exaggeration, even if it does sound hyperbolic.

To have a fascist attack on art come from an open source project that used to stand for helping users free their e-books from proprietary lock-in is beyond disgusting.

But I don't get to say something like that without backing it up by action.

@phosh users: There are some regressions regarding OSK input (like the keyboard showing too often or text prediction not working) when using #Phosh with apps using #gtk 4.24. So if possible please stick to 4.22 just a bit longer, until these are resolved.

Note that this also applies to Flatpaks using the GNOME 51 runtime.

Maybe #Flatpak maintainers that want to help mobile users could stick to the 50 runtime just a little bit longer too.

Of course it was a software defect. We're going to be seeing a lot more shit like this happen over the next few years as people discover that the software industry is being unravelled not "revolutionised"

Tech billionaires are spending millions to crush wealth taxes, deregulate AI and crypto, and elect politicians who will hand them more power.

Miles Kampf-Lassin explains why: Democracy remains the biggest obstacle to their plans.

Here's a photo I took right towards the tail-end of the 2008 financial bubble in Iceland, when it was more lucrative for investors to buy up properties on the Laugavegur/Bankastræti shopping street, drive out the stores, and just let the real estate price increases roll in
