This is the post I didn’t know I needed right now. Mind goblin … 😂

Hyygestank

this exists it is called thinking

I’ve said for years that people did dream up the idea that news is available for free. Newsrooms gave it to them. Newsrooms taught them. Scolding people (or groveling) won’t change their minds. You need a positioning and marketing strategy. Water is free out of the tap, too.

If you wrote a "Trump distances himself from project 2025" story in 2024 you are either a dupe or one of our enemies. They are cackling with laughter that the media they're now destroying enthusiastically helped them dupe the voters

In a truly wretched mood owing to the combination of fascism, capitalism, and baseball. But enough about the New York Yankees

The media allowing Trump plausible deniability on Project 2025 during the campaign is right up there with Iraq War stenography in craven, lazy disgracefulness

sort a to z... great. now show me z to a. interesting. let me see oldest to newest

ICE LAWSUIT UPDATE: Back in May, we told you @blockclubchi.bsky.social, our nonprofit newsroom, was suing ICE over immigration records. While ICE has produced some data, they still won't say exactly who they arrested. Here’s why we’re fighting to know more: blockclubchi.co/4n5L01T

I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

Authenticity will win the day.

Immediately leaving the meeting.

The more you read this article the dumber it gets because this org's lead guy's position is "all the entities that currently support the democratic party, like the ACLU, are bad actually" which is just nonsense. This isn't a "Democratic Think Tank" it's a conservative influence operation.

Ask any "We need Difficult Conversations" university president what they think of unions

He's not a "longevity pioneer" until he hits 175 years old.

It bums me out there's a neverending money bar for dorks who don't believe in anything.

Doesn’t deserve your money or attention.

You know the brand is strong when even the gotdamn SpaceX coke bricks managed to blow up and crash

wonder if that hairline got its passport stamped in Turkey

when we get on the other side of all this bullshit we need to give the Kennedy Center Honors to Teddy Riley

RIP Robert Redford. Wild that this post about his iconic jacket was published last night www.ft.com/content/3c1a...

Tapping the sign.

EXCUSE ME

Life is hard enough. Can we please stop putting grapes in chicken salad

Stephen Miller was directly involved in one of the largest acts of organized domestic political violence the United States has seen in modern times, the Jan 6 insurrection. Any news org that doesn't make this fact central is helping Miller deceive its customers.

Yeah but I’ll be at an advantage of not getting stuffed into lockers.

🤔 This week in the #Newswire: How can you help amid ICE raids in Chicago? Plus, how to spread information, not panic ⬇️ www.citybureau.org/newswire/202...

Hell yeah new bike lane on Clark.

Make a band singular Fugazus.

From comforting the afflicted to defending the indefensible.

Every centrist hagiographer: he said some very important stuff Everyone: oh, like what? Every centrist hagiographer: very important things Everyone: Can you repeat some of those things he said? Every centrist hagiographer, looking at their legal department frantically shaking their heads: no

“I just want a Nazi boyfriend I can take to Au Bon Pain” is shorter and more honest than a bunch of the columns out right now

I genuinely find this argument baffling. It’s good bc he was racist/sexist/xenophobic/homophobic/transphobic calmly? I don’t understand separating the toxicity of what he was saying from how he said it. What’s gained in splitting that hair other than a coddling of whiteness and patriarchy?

LMAOOOOOOOOOOO Of course.

I'm looking for people on SNAP and/or seniors on fixed incomes in the #Portland or #SWWashington area who'd be willing to share their grocery strategies for a column. If that's you, I'd love to connect! Email me at [email protected] to learn more.

That's the whole idea behind my "Rose City Receipts" grocery diary column. But I need your help to make it truly representative of our community. stumptownsavings.com/t/Rose%20Cit...

Hey, #Portland! A big goal for my project, Stumptown Savings, is to destigmatize talking about cooking, meal planning, and grocery shopping on a budget. It's a conversation worth having, especially for folks on SNAP and fixed incomes.

Journalists’ and politicians’ insistence that everyone cares a ton about this guy is also doing a good job of proving that the “Twitter isn’t real life lol” brigade is the only demographic of people who absolutely believe Twitter is real life.

What are the Pine Barrens of Utah?

I'm hitting my limit on full-ass adults riding bikes on the sidewalk. Scooters, too.

If I were editing a column about Charlie Kirk’s political genius, I would tell the writer he needed to quote Kirk’s actual political beliefs. If the writer responded that doing so would weaken or distract from his argument, it’d be a pretty good sign that the column was not ready for prime time.

@joanesposito.bsky.social & I had a great conversation about journalism with these heroes of local news. I hope you'll actively support each one: + @tracybaim.bsky.social of Press Forward Chi + @laraweber.bsky.social of @statesnewsroom.com + @jensabella.bsky.social of @blockclubchi.bsky.social

Really out here upholding one of the key promoters of the effort to overthrow the 2020 election as an exemplar of healthy democracy

This moment is providing a pretty clear litmus test of which people with national platforms actually care about stopping fascism. Who you can trust and who you can’t. You can vehemently condemn political violence without complimenting and praising fascists! It’s not hard!

No better evidence that "The Cathedral" is fake than allegedly liberal journalists tripping over their dicks to praise, as a champion of free discourse and expression, a guy who made one of his central accomplishments a blacklist of professors
