I don't have a Substack. Or Instagram. Or YouTube channel. Or TicTok. I'm not selling anything. I'm just here to be social. To read and occasionally share.

"I've done live fact-checking during breaking news events for years. But the sheer volume of viral misinformation today regarding Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi's helicopter crash posted by fake osint accounts and blue tick grifters for engagement (on Twitter/X) has been something to behold," says Shayan Sardarizadeh, a journalist at BBC Verify.

@w7voa Not surprising. Prices went up, portions went down, and customers cleared out.

@arstechnica Already canceled our sub. Netflix joined Peacock in the "No, Thank You Category." Good to see Netflix has gone all-in on earning their place there.

In the latest installment of Oklahoma's elected officials not having the necessary background to do their jobs, we have this:

The Satanic Temple plans to place ministers in Oklahoma schools if new bill becomes law

Of course Oklahoma legislators don't want those chaplains in schools. And, it apparently never occurred to them that allowing one religion means allowing ALL religions. I don't even think this is some misguided 1st Amendment challenge. It's just ignorance, ignorance that doesn't belong in public office.
