Proud of our union for this. Go AFGE! 💪 www.afge.org/publication/...

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

I don’t see how this country survives until 2029 unless Trump is impeached and removed. This level of lawless malice is not sustainable. What fresh horrors await us this week?

If you would like to honor Bobby Weir, consider contributions to 2 orgs he was involved with: 1) Rex Foundation: the Dead created Rex 40 years ago to support causes that make the world better. 2) Sweetwater Music Hall: Bobby’s nonprofit venue Links are in the next 2 posts.

RIP Bobby. May the four winds blow you safely home.

You know, men could've done literally anything with AI and they chose degradation. Actively and gleefully. Never forget that.

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

Merry Christmas from one of Billy Strings’s first videos. youtube.com/watch?v=UEBd...

The Beatles!! @moonalice.com have you seen this? youtu.be/-699G6yCZPY?...

This is Bolt. He just learned how to speak. Thinks it works best when he uses his whole body. 12/10 (TT: gavi_570)

This is Oakley. He has an injury that requires physical therapy and at-home massages. Luckily, his cat sibling River has been training his whole life for this. 14/10 for both

Not only is this rude, inappropriate, partisan, costly, and illegal, it reveals the fundamentally anti-American idiocy of this administration’s policy of handing over to China the most important economic sector of the 21st century.

Carole Cadwalladr is an amazing journalist who broke the Cambridge Analytica story and survived the aftermath (you can read all about it on her Substack). Last year, when UK’s Guardian (where she’d worked for two decades) sold out, she was dumped. open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Want to know what makes America great? Look at anything the Republican administration is cutting and you’ll find an example.

Sick and dead pets. Mystery illness. Horrific accident taking the lives of two shining lights. Fascism, ICE, lies, corruption. Gaza. Every line in this song, written years ago but just recorded for the first time, reflects my own thoughts. I have it on repeat. It’s catchy, too. Listen.

“ABC and CBS are making a serious miscalculation. Their servility to Trump will not earn them peace, only greater pressure.” That’s the German professional association of journalists, @djv.de, calling on major US media to support their journalists instead of preemptively silencing them.

casually mentioned to someone under 25 that it used to be legal to smoke in restaurants and I think someday people are going to have that same look of horror and disbelief on their faces when we tell them we used to hand iPads to babies

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

In memory of the late Mark Volman, here are Flo & Eddie explaining their history with managers. Simply brilliant look at how the music business really works. m.youtube.com/watch?v=NdBG...

The SPEAKER implies. The LISTENER infers. The DUDE abides.

The adamant elite refusal to call bullshit is a big part of How We Got Here. The prevailing cultural attitude for years is you must not, under any circumstances, treat anything as bad faith. You are obligated to find some reasonable idea and engage with that, even if you distort to get there.

Bob Minkin Photography took some amaaaazing photos yesterday at the Grateful Dead Night @ SF Giants in San Francisco, CA! Here's the first batch! Enjoy!

It ain't going away, no it ain't going away....

This is the stupidest timeline.

With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

We're super psyched for the Petaluma Music Festival on Sat. 26 July! Check out this super sweet show poster created by Wendy Wright!! The #Moonalice set is 6.45pm PT!!!

I made a necklace from #PolymerClay. The pendant and colorful beads came from the same batch of mixed clays. Notice how the pendant is mirror-imaged? So are the beads; each one is a four-part Rorschach test, so you can do a self-therapy session wherever you go 😉 #Jewelry #Art #Crafts

This is how it looks when a Sea Anemone runs away from a Starfish.

Momma whale with her baby…… 🐋 Such beautiful creatures….. And wait for it….. 😂🤣

Flawless response ❤️

In the next ten months—while he’s still being broadcast—someone needs to get the Epstein list to Colbert so he can read it on the air

Timeline cleanser!! 💚 🐶🐶💚

The ‘hippo’ in ‘hippopotamus’ and the ‘hippo’ in ‘hippocampus’ are the same. ‘Hippo’ is from the Greek for "horse." Hippopotamus means “river horse.” ‘Hippocampus’ means “sea horse” because that part of the brain is shaped like a seahorse.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, the President of the United States even joking about revoking someone’s citizenship should be met with universal condemnation.

If you're wondering what happened with Grok overnight, it ended up referring to itself as MechaHitler before being switched off.

Stay hydrated out there folks-the southeast is baking today.
