New: the inside story of how Tea collected millions of women's secrets, then exposed them to the world. We've found Tea raided women safety groups to get users; paid influencers to undermine others, much more. The “motive is money, not actually to protect people.” www.404media.co/how-teas-fou...

Pretty stoked to confirm that we just submitted our historical marker application for Denna and Estella Strickland. I started this research as a grad student at @northeasternu.bsky.social and am grateful to see it get this far. Read more about the case here: atlantadailyworld.com/2022/10/13/l...

Finally, I continue to harp on this because it's important, we are going to win at the local level. That's where the main fight must be waged. Get to ground and fight like hell. Take care everyone. Back offline.

Are you sure you didn't mean to write DOGE-y dealings? 👀

Current mood:

In 2024, a full-time worker needed to earn $32.11 an hour to afford rent on a modest two-bedroom home in the U.S. Reminder that the federal minimum wage is still $7.25.

A police stop is enough to make someone less likely to vote, recent research has found. "Voting is a reflection of our belief that we’re part of the system, that our voice matters." boltsmag.org/a-polic...

In my reporting on generative AI, I keep saying artists and writers are the canaries in the coalmine. That what happens to us will soon happen to everyone. Here's the first step to this happening to everyone: companies using AI deepfakes to interview job applicants. SMDH slate.com/life/2025/05...

As the court case begins, some say hip-hop is facing its long-delayed #MeToo moment.

Alec Karakatsanis's new book ‘Copaganda: How Police and the Media Manipulate Our News’ criticizes how the media covers — and enables — policing.

You’re so cool @marinamasako.bsky.social 🥰 you gotta team up with @kikutowne.bsky.social someday and take over LA.

Spotted on 4th Ave. in Brooklyn

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker plans to sign an executive order preventing state agencies from obtaining or disclosing data that personally identifies people with autism, unless required for medical care or legal matters. “Every Illinoisan deserves ... the freedom to live without fear of surveillance.”

Another reason #Dexter didn’t hold up.

New: Using FOIA I obtained memos agencies sent the White House detailing how they complied with an anti-trans executive order. Shows that FOIA is still working at some agencies and is a possible mechanism for transparency; we have hundreds more pending across govt www.404media.co/public-recor...

Honestly, when you do a bad thing, you should feel bad about it! That’s how things are supposed to work!

"Americans, it’s time to rejoice. We know that you have been forced to adopt a new lifestyle, one without eggs, cars, or winter coats. But who needs physical warmth when you can bask in the radiant glow of your unwavering patriotism?"

Guess it's finally a convenient time to be allergic to #eggs, huh? 😅

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
