Regular reminder that Axios stories saying Dems are about to cave are likely sourced from GOP staffers trying to make it happen. Doesn't mean it definitely won't happen. But it's like those NYT stories that Harvard is considering caving (they haven't). The anonymous source was trying to manifest it.

I find it fascinating that although whales are the largest animals on the planet there's a ton of species we just don't know much about. There are 24 species of beaked whales and some have only been discovered in the last few decades.

If you're arrested in Illinois for the means by which you acquire food for your family because of the government shutdown or loss of SNAP benefits, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected]. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

Last week, from @josephinelee.bsky.social: Each year, 1000s of students apply for a seat at one of the top performing magnet high schools in Houston. But that opportunity could end under a proposal to turn 7 top high schools into private partnerships.

Well this sucks.

Excellent information here! Remember to call your Republican reps and tell them to get their sorry asses back to work.

When we resign our young men to nothing more than a STEM education, we lose out on characters like this. Bring back humanities. Bring back weird little guys

“The problem is that when it is installed in a health sector that prizes efficiency, surveillance and profit extraction, AI becomes not a tool for care and community but simply another instrument for commodifying human life.”

Last week @runforsomething.net helped elect a socialist in Atlanta, a former Republican in rural PA & at least 122 others, (including 35 red to blue flips). We’ve been building the big tent - tight on values, flexible on policy, and most importantly, centered on community.

I know we've all got a lot on our minds and the gusher of news doesn't stop for anybody, but.... Did you see where the President of Iran announced that the drought there is so bad that if they don't get any rain in the next two months they'll run out of water and *evacuate Tehran*?

My heart 💓💓💓

This is what women want.

I can be your gyro baby

2/ The Dutch newspaper reports that two memorial panels installed at the NAC were removed some time earlier this year. They commemorated African-American soldiers who helped liberate Europe from German occupation during World War II.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

The perfect baked potato

Tech guys six months ago: haha yes we’re cutting all this WASTEFUL spending by eliminating medical research and USAID Tech guys now: yes I think taxpayers will be excited to bailout my non consensual pornography machine

The Los Angeles Guild for Reproductive Health’s Made With Love boutique on November 15 is a great opportunity to shop local and make a huge impact!

"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

We gave out 178 gallons of milk on Thursday, one per family. And some families didn’t get any

The people who voted for Zohran Mamdani and the folks who raged over “woke” Cracker Barrel have more in common than you may think. Let me explain.

“The American economy is cleaving into the have-nots and the have-yachts.” www.al.com/news/2025/11...

congrats to everyone for thinking this through before signing very big contracts to put it on every student’s device at the school or university you run

“Federal authorities told demonstrators Friday that there would be ‘no more prayer’ in front of or inside the Broadview ICE facility, in a move that mystified local leaders and raised legal questions.” blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/07/f...

Did you know a former White House climate advisor flipped a GOP stronghold in Virginia by running entirely on putting a stop to more AI data centers? For @heatmap.news I profiled John McAuliff and a campaign that will be a roadmap for all future anti-AI politicians moving forward.

Listen to our chair @ericagibson.bsky.social and vice-chair David Morse chat with Rachel and David on #BlueVoteCafe podcast about what they’re up to right now - like their radio show US Politics, In Plain English!

BREAKING: A federal jury in Brooklyn awarded our clients — 674 immigrants unlawfully jailed by the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office — $112 million. Could not be more proud to work at @latinojustice.bsky.social and to partner with the talent of Winston & Strawn.

He doesn’t even get sworn in til January and he’s already getting shit done.

He has now erased fully 10% of the term to which Grijalva was elected.

Seattle, if you want Wilson to win, here's a great chance to help her out!

It’s shit like this that makes me think the GOP doesn’t care about winning elections and they’re just not planning on having them. Because no one who thinks they have to win elections does this.

They're going to the highest court in the land to avoid feeding children.

A gifted comic and dramatic performer, Diane Ladd had a long career in television and on stage before breaking through as a film performer in Martin Scorsese’s 1974 release “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore.”

Thinking only of Rosalind Franklin today, and what was stolen from her (and so many other female scientists alongside her).

All aboard the trans!

if you are the public defense investigator who just subpoenaed Sam Altman on stage know that i love you and think you are a wonder upon this earth.

Every Watson obituary should begin with some variant of "James Watson, whose uncredited use of Rosalind Franklin's research led to fame, fortune, and the Nobel Prize..."
