There is a pending community note on this, but it is infuriating that a huge newspaper will just flat-out lie about the news SPLC was not "indicted for paying sources". They were indicted for wire fraud and making false statements. Just tell us the truth! It's not that hard!
USA TODAY@USATODAY

The Southern Poverty Law Center was indicted for paying sources to infiltrate hate groups, a tactic federal agencies have used for decades. usatoday.com/story/news/nat…

r/BannedBooks celebrates over Amazon banning "Camp of the Saints" The comments are wild: "As a librarian that's not actually a book, I would remove it from my library" "I don't like book bans, but..." "It's not a book ban because it's a private company"

Reddit's r/bannedbooks when the book in question is being delisted by the world's biggest retailer for political reasons and isn't a private Christian library in Idaho removing a cartoon guide to rimming.

This will be my Thailand thread. Bangkok has changed since last I was here. Many more Asian tourists relative to white ones. It’s less seedy and more developed. I guess sex tourists prefer other spots. Lots of Korean restaurants. Many more Indians here as well: tourists and immigrants. White tourists def the minority in central area this evening. Taxi drivers using Iran war as excuse to try and overcharge “fuel price too much”. Probably for the best but the fabled Bangkok of old seems dead.

During Trump's second term: - Jared Kushner became a billionaire - the net worth of his 3 sons exponentially skyrocketed - Baron Trump now worth $120m Much if not most came from huge cash infusions from the Persian Gulf tyrannies. [Hunter Biden got $50k/month from Burisma]

I think the best way to understand this: * If there was no chance of a deal it’d just be Witkoff and Kushner. * If it’s low chance of a deal and high humiliation chance, they’d send Vance. * If it was a high chance of a good outcome but still negotiations, but low risk of humiliation, they’d send Rubio. * If it was a done deal (or once the deal is ready) they’d send Trump so he can’t get the bragging rights. It’s like we know the military updates are: * Trump if it’s something good * Hegseth press conference if updates are bad. Trump doesn’t send anyone else to get the credit.

@oliviacarter321 Thanks for taking a look! Creating the characters was the most fun. Not letting the plot bog down or get off track was the hardest.

James Van Allen on “the Van Allen belts would kill astronauts!” claim after seeing the claims on a moon hoax show aired on FOX: “The recent Fox TV show, which I saw, is an ingenious and entertaining assemblage of nonsense. The claim that radiation exposure during the Apollo missions would have been fatal to the astronauts is only one example of such nonsense.” He further explained: “the outbound and inbound trajectories of the Apollo spacecraft cut through the outer portions of the inner belt and because of their high speed spent only about 15 minutes in traversing the region and less than 2 hours in traversing the much less penetrating radiation in the outer radiation belt. The resulting radiation exposure for the round trip was less than 1% of a fatal dosage - a very minor risk among the far greater other risks of such flights. I made such estimates in the early 1960s and so informed NASA engineers who were planning the Apollo flights. These estimates are still reliable.” Everyone saying “muh Van Allen belts!” Are just repeating what they heard some grifter say on the internet and never bothered to do the minimum amount of research.

Saying the words "white people" in front of a room of white people is WILD, I did it recently. Watch what happens around you... EXTREME discomfort. White people have been conditioned to believe that even saying the words "white people" is a slur. That to even acknowledge themselves as a group, is itself, an act of racism. Really, it's just an insane thing to realize how successful the psychological operation has been. An entire group of people have been taught to be afraid of their own name, taught that noticing themselves is a truly evil thing to do. Yet, simultaneously, taught that EVERY OTHER demographic can speak about itself like that, but if YOU say "White people" it's a slur. The operation was SO successful, it's insane.

Marvel's biggest problem is that nothing that happens ultimately matters in their movies. It's just smashing action figures together. Nothing more, and it's why it becomes completely disinteresting.
