Nemesis of emesis

It's my kid’s birthday today. I love him. I miss him. 11 was a memorable age for me—met my life-long best friend, started drumming, got into science (had weather guy aspirations), & watched two planes hit two skyscrapers, killing thousands—hope his will be too (w/o the terrorism)

Notice Mamdani charmed Trump on live TV without backing down on any stances. He didn't water himself down, he didn't even take back calling Trump a fascist. Moderates would say butter him up, or try to appear more right-wing. Voters can see through that—and evidently so does he!

Laughing at Donald Trump saying he'd definitely feel comfortable living in Zohran Mamdani's New York on the same day that half the consultant brain-poisoned Democratic party voted to condemn socialism

Response efforts are ongoing in Kyiv following the Russian attack. All the necessary emergency services are working at the sites. Last night, Russia launched more than 100 drones against us. Ordinary apartment buildings in several districts of the city have been damaged. Unfortunately, as of now, three people are known to have been killed in the attack. My deepest condolences to their families. Dozens have been injured, including children. Every Russian strike is an attempt to inflict as much damage as possible on ordinary life. This week, they’ve been striking residential buildings, our people, children, and civilian infrastructure. These are the main targets for the Russians. Thousands of strikes with various types of weapons: in just one week, Russia has used nearly 1,200 attack drones, more than 1,360 guided aerial bombs, and over 50 missiles of different types against Ukraine. Under all these strikes, Ukraine has continued to defend itself actively – on the battlefield, in the sky, and through diplomacy. There are significant results regarding the pressure on Russia: the 19th EU sanctions package and new U.S. sanctions targeting Russian oil. We are grateful to our partners for these steps, but it is important not to stop here. We count on the synchronization of these sanctions across the G7 and other partner jurisdictions. And, of course, additional tariff and sanctions restrictions are needed against Russia and all those helping it stay afloat. Certainly, pressure will help bring about peace. I thank everyone who contributes to this.

@theclassiccrime Social media manager or band/talent manager?

I need a manager

This was twenty-three months ago. Israeli forces have killed more than 16,365 kids since.

I deeply miss my kid

"The Commission finds that the Israeli authorities intended to kill as many Palestinians as possible through its military operations in #Gaza since 7 October 2023 and knew that the means and methods of warfare employed would cause mass deaths of Palestinians, including children."

1/n Watching more Dept HHS wellness/influencer autism pseudoscience infiltrate RFK Jr’s public remarks + the recent tragic and fact-free White House press conference. Most of this I debunked in a previous book, written during/after a year of unproductive discussions with the guy

NEW candidate running to beat Susan Collins: "Why can't we have universal healthcare like every other first-world country? Why can't we take care of our veterans when they come home? Why are we funding endless wars & bombing children? Why are CEOs more powerful than unions?"

Entomologist here 🙋‍♂️🤓🐜 Great question! It may seem surprising that the scientific community could miss an entire bug species after all this time, especially when it’s THIS big. The answer might surprise you more 👀 Let’s dive in 👇🧵 (1/?)

Read this very carefully: *One quarter* of all the people who have died of starvation in Gaza over the past 22 months have died in the past *3 days*

Armed officers, frequent use of force and people grabbed on the street or at their places of work... Working with Evident and @CalMatters we have monitored the LA raids, discovering recurring trends and tactics used by officers. bellingcat.com/news/2025/07/0…

I guess all this to say it's not just the trumpet—it’s the love of life, the joy, the anger, the whiskey; everything that comes with the trumpet—that does it

I had a band teacher in high school who was a pro studio trumpeter. He loved jazz, called people “cool cats” unironically, & hid canteens of whiskey in his office. Def an alcoholic. Retired late almost 15 years ago, so is older than dirt now, but can still make his trumpet sing.

A shocking Associated Press investigation has uncovered disturbing footage showing security contractors firing live rounds and stun grenades at Palestinians, not in combat zones, but at food distribution centers in Gaza.

Imagine constantly needing this kind of demented shit in your life in order to feel anything.

he has not said anything negative about Jewish people @ericswalwell, this is an utterly deranged smear

The people running our music industry are the same people “doubling down” on AI military technology. To build a fair and just music industry, we also must dismantle imperialism in all its forms. Daniel Ek is a warmonger who pays artists poverty wages 🤮

One thing many people don't think about is how many pets starve to death in the U.S. because a person is jailed on cash bail that they can't pay for weeks or months even though they're presumed innocent. The other harms are so great, but this discrete one is often overlooked.
