Glen Hansard, the iconic Irish singer, moved through the world eager to dispense some wisdom about the heart to someone who needed it—or someone who didn’t know they needed it, Hanif Abdurraqib writes. www.newyorker.com/news/postscr...

An abusive son-in-law leveraging his father-in-law’s (alleged) gay activities to stay quiet about his daughter being a punching bag is the most Republican thing I can imagine, which is aided by the fact that Ohio somehow elected both of these losers to federal office.

This is very much the reality of Google's business model, rather than the narrative they're selling of being climate heroes building AI climate solutions

NEW BLOG FOR YOU Google's energy consumption numbers in their new climate report are mind-blowing. 2 years ago they flipped from linear to exponential growth, and their climate impact is blowing out, too. A WILD testament to the obscene bloat and waste of GenAI: ketanjoshi.co/2026/07/01/g...

Hurling F-bombs at an 85-year-old scientist who won’t fight back doesn’t make you tough. Staying silent after your own daughter accused Rep. Max Miller of holding a gun to her head, pushing her against a wall, and fracturing your granddaughter’s collarbone makes you a coward.

What the fuck is this, ABC on YouTube? As an Indigenous person who is proud that Victoria has a Treaty, signed by the Labor government, no, it's absolutely not a good time for Labor to lose the Victorian election. They and the Greens support Treaty, the Liberals, Nationals, and One Nation don't.

With a church fire in Leicester the racists are out and I'd like to note that most of the congregation of the church in question isn't white British, & the 'illegals in hotels' they're blaming for 'destroying heritage' have been some of the best volunteers at Leicester's oldest church for months now

If there were 60 cases of immigrants committing sex crimes, against children, Trump would order the mass execution of every immigrant in America. Here, 60 DHS/ICE agents committed sex crimes against children—silence. Horrifying report by the Ohio Immigrant Alliance: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I have no problem with this. What I did find unfair was that we were paying £72k a year as Mum was a dementia patient, when her care would have been free if she had had any other life limiting condition. And the fees we paid went to a private equity vampires while staff were on minimum wages.

A very interesting and worthwhile thread. Seriously, the government cuts libraries, public AND school, just when cost of living makes buying books unaffordable for many families, and then sits there going 'why don't they read?' Read WHAT, you toss-weasels, YOU TOOK THEIR BOOKS AWAY.

"Allowing a landlord to define “offensive” to include what they found “morally offensive” could also pave the way for Australian property law to become more like the US, where restrictive covenants were used by developers to facilitate racial segregation and discrimination." #auslaw

It's part of a major federal court case over those cancelations. Here's what the government admitted as part of a process meant to avoid discovery (and perhaps spare it from sharing more damaging records):

The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.

When All Hail Chaos was coming out and I was truly truly in the dumps and hysterical with nerves, kind readers here showing my many library holds was truly one of my greatest comforts!
