Starbucks is a multi-billion dollar company. Their CEO made 6,666x what the average barista made last year. It’s time for them to get serious, finish negotiating a strong union contract and invest in @sbworkersunited.org baristas who power their profits.

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."

Congrats to the happy couple!!! 🎉

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

Strive to live a life where when you get shot, people don't text each other '[name] got shot lmao.'

Why did people think Trump died?

PSA: This weekend I flew and handed my ID to the TSA agent. She glanced at it & told me to put it into the machine, so I did. I said I wanted to refuse a photo, and she was like "well you have to say that before you put your ID in the machine!" Nowhere on the signs was there a warning 1/

LOLOLOL @ today's bird. How does @effinbirds.com always manage to have the right vibe?

Live your life such that everyone doesn’t spend ten solid years planning the rager they’re going to throw when you die.

Just encountered a very cool idea for a book club! Each person reads a different book & annotates it. They pass it to the next person in the club, who annotates it, & passes it on. Rinse & repeat! It's a different kind of conversation AND creates a very cool art object at the end!

I deeply resent having to defend John Bolton but “the president sends his goons on a fishing expedition to raid anyone who criticizes him” is in fact very alarming

Live a life where people aren't happy when you die.

I get to see my (36 y/o) hasn't brother next weekend! Boy oh boy I wish teleportation existed so that could happen more often, although I'm sure some company would make it cost like a bajillion dollars per trip.

all my life women have treated me like being me is their worst nightmare and then tried to hastily pretend that it wasn’t an insult joke’s on you, if you have never had the approval of men it costs you nothing to lose it and then you’re free

TOOT

I need the #ResidentAlien production team to know that Bridget's little suitcase and backpack are the best props I've seen on tv all year. Perfection.

I've been enjoying the One Song podcast with @dialloriddle.bsky.social & ‪@luxxury.bsky.social‬ this summer! If you haven't heard the new one about God Only Knows, def check it out. Would loooove to hear them pick up Piece of My Heart by Janis Joplin. My fave episode so far is Mariah Carey Fantasy!

Juss tryink to enjoye #Caturday in peese! Get an life Momb!!

This is the core problem with the Buttigieg "we have to find common ground" framing. The question isn't sports, it's whether trans people will be allowed to exist as trans in public. Everything else—politically and strategically—is downstream from that.

We’re not sure who needs to hear this, but ‘blueberry’ has two b’s.

Prime Day is an excellent day for saying “hey, how we go get some books at the library” 📚

I love that former NYT public editor @sulliview.bsky.social is public-editing from the outside. "With this made-up scandal, combined with the pre-election editorial, the Times looks like it’s on a crusade against Mamdani. "And no lofty explanation about the mission can disguise it."

I just want to rent a dumb action movie on a Saturday night, I don't want to have to do homework of watching three other movies and a tv series first to understand it. 😒

Nothing says #July4 like a big juicy slice of watermelon. This yummy fruit doesn't just appear on our picnic table. It takes a lot of work. An average watermelon weighs 20 pounds. Can you imagine harvesting them in a 98° Bakersfield area field like these workers?

‪Today’s announcement from Jazmine Sullivan follows LL Cool J’s own cancellation last night, in which he emphasized his refusal to cross the striking workers’ picket line. Two icons doing iconic things! www.nbcphiladelphia.com/entertainmen...

Congrats to Sen. Murkowski on the final passage of the bill she voted for.

Wow if only she could have done something to stop the bill getting passed

This amendment was passed explicitly to grant citizenship to the formerly enslaved. It’s not just our business; it’s our foundation. Dred Scott said we’d never be citizens; the 14th amendment fixed that. What happens when the court removes the fix?
