🇬🇧 🇮🇱 British Presenter: Sexual assaults on Palestinian prisoners by Israeli soldiers have been proven. But rebellious Israelis stormed the prison and demanded the release of the rapist soldiers. I thought this kind of brutality only existed in history books.
Republicans want mid-decade gerrymandering — rigging maps outside normal redistricting cycles — to lock Democrats out of power permanently. Virginia’s ballot measure fights back. Vote YES to protect fair elections. Polls close April 21st. #VirginiaIsForVotingYes

C-SPAN: President Trump is attending for the first time in his presidency. Caren Bohan: It's controversial. A number of prominent journalists have written a letter to the White House Correspondents' Association saying that they should disinvite him... expect there to be a lot of tension tonight.

US Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) explains why reforming Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) is so critical in this moment. It’s allll about AI—and if we don’t get some protections we’re gonna be cooked. #fisa

Ezequiel Duran showing off the leather once again in this series. Excellent play. No shade, but I don’t think there’s any way Seags gets to this. Zeke really has impressed at SS since taking over full-time duty.
They are demons. It doesn't make sense to me that this is fυcκιΝ happening either.
I added in a "Be Right Back" button directly into K.R.A.P.S., because I'm the king of innovation and not because I'm lazy and keep forgetting to swap back to the proper scene in #OBS. #lazy #gamedev #indiedev #godot #twitch #twitchstreamer #godot #indieznutz #overlay

Wikipedia should’ve been chaos, but its "invisible architecture" saved it. Successful open-source isn't a free-for-all, it’s a meritocracy of "middleware" and gatekeepers. Without this structure, social media stays toxic. How do we fix the digital conversation?

Last week's elections showed that Philly politicians can't just run on their family name any more, @denisethewriter.bsky.social says. Here's what they have to do instead:
Ukrainian defender found a bird’s nest made of fiber-optic cable (a thin, almost invisible wire used in drones). “A bird is already building nests out of fiber optics.” A serviceman shared a video showing a nest woven from fiber-optic cable instead of twigs. Video: bleakbros / TikTok
“I think that if Prigozhin were alive and had gone through with the march, the situation could have unfolded in a completely different way.” — Georgy Fedorov, Russian politician and the State Duma deputy

This Kia in front of me sounds like a lawnmower. I’m gonna pray for them because times are too hard for a car repair right now.
The funniest part of redpill relationship advice is how often they accidentally describe not loving their partner.
This man does nothing but spew hateful rhetoric & cause more division between the Political Party’s & the American people. This country will never be united or great under trump! And that’s 100% facts! 💯
