Good grief!

a million and one reasons to be furious about the autism/tylenol press conference but telling pregnant women they should really really "tough it out" rather than get pain relief is the one that's ... wow it makes me mad

Texas' bathroom bill is officially signed, it goes into effect Dec. 4. It applies to: Public buildings (courthouses, state agencies, etc.) Texas public universities Family violence shelters State prisons It does not apply to: Private businesses It could apply to: Sports stadiums

Disney reverses course on Kimmel. Lessons: -Trump's anti-Constitutional stances, anti-1A in this case, are unpopular -Popular resistance via expression and spending choices can have an impact -Many corporate leaders are weak, amoral people who'll bow to threats unless they face countervailing ones

shit ain’t over til it’s over

It's not *quite* sweater weather yet, but it IS the first day of fall. So here is lovely Kim Novak in a nice cozy-chunky sweater.

Ten years ago, my dear friend Paige Lehr had a heart attack. She's survived to tell the cautionary tale of how stress and a lack of self-attention almost killed her. She doesn't want that to happen to you. www.thebanner.com/opinion/colu...

You don't have to do things perfectly or happily today. You can also do them out of spite!

It's sobering, in its way, to realize that there was truly nobody (save, perhaps, his children) who knew him that loved him as a man. He made himself into content, and he died as content, and his funeral is the most content of all. Soundbites to soundbites, bits to bits

ProPublica reskeeted me so I'll be silencing my phone now 😅 (but I am very happy about the Muslim chaplain freed from DHS detention)

"I’m free today because of this advocacy,” Soliman said. “Don’t underestimate your voice."

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

Sunday Shows 3: Jasmine Crockett, asked about the Charlie Kirk "No" votes in the House of Representatives, says that nearly all the no's were people of color, says it's a shame that more Ds didn't vote No

It’s their day today 🎶🕺🏻

They couldn’t even find a Wise sour cream and onion chips bag and a red envelope?

Arrest. Prosecute. Every time. The Right is giving them permission. The law must not. www.kut.org/crime-justic...

Column: If the Emmys can’t muster excitement for television, why should anyone else? Seriously, what are we doing here? Gift 🔗

just saw a tiktok from a disney adult reading from On Tyranny and asking their followers to cancel their d+ and disney trips omg

this bitch

Why would Godzilla need a wrench to kill someone? I am at best unclear on the concept. I mean, it’s pretty obvious when Godzilla kills somebody, right? It’s no mystery.

When the key source for an explosive allegation in your Charlie Kirk story tells you, a few hours after you published: "Oh, it was all such a long time ago. I misremembered.... I don’t really know. I just can’t remember stuff so well.” In today's Laurels/Darts. www.cjr.org/laurels-and-...

Allowing Amber Ruffin to be removed as the WHCD host made way for the removal of Kimmel and Colbert. In this essay, I will-

i remain resolute in my confidence we will win and it will be because we stuck together. dooming and fatalism is not how any of us will get out of this mess. i’m saying this as a veteran climate journalist who is a trans woman. if i have more hope than you, think of what that says about your view

pull yourself together and go cook a big dinner with and for your sisters and talk about the concrete ways in which you’ll show up for each other in the coming days, weeks, months, years. there is no way out but through and the only way we make it through is with each other

again, ABC is actively lobbying the Trump FCC to eliminate some of our last remaining media consolidation rules that prevent the big four networks from merging That's WAY more valuable to them than ethics or democracy

It was very telling that for three days, none of the major TV anchors would have me on air one-on-one to talk about my firing from the Washington Post over Charlie Kirk. The first offers were from Black media, independent media, Substackers, and podcasters.

ICE agents just took one of our fellow protesters inside the facility after we stood up to them kidnapping our neighbors.

I just spoke to NYC Comptroller Brad Lander as he left police custody following his arrest at immigration court. Here’s what he said:

In Austin: KEYE (Sinclair) and KXAN (Nexstar)

Comptroller Brad Lander has been released after he and 10 other electeds were detained while observing immigration proceedings at 26 Fed. Am told all are expected to be released promptly. More Tk.

An astonishing gift to Huston-Tillotson. Some good news. www.kut.org/education/20...

I’m sorry @vanityfair.com hiring Nuzzi is such a fucking gut punch to all the great underemployed journalists out there who don’t sext with their sources, which, to be fair, is pretty much everyone except Olivia Nuzzi

If I had done the same shit Olivia Nuzzi did my name would never be allowed in the VICINITY of a legacy pub ever again.

LOL good thing I already canceled my subscription

Step into Howl's garden. 💐 HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE returns to theatres for Ghibli Fest September 20-24! brnw.ch/21wVdz0

A group of eight state and national media organizations, including @propublica.org @texastribune.org ‬⁩ and the Texas Newsroom, are arguing that Ken Paxton’s divorce records are of public interest, especially in light of his bid for a US Senate seat.

Thinking of something @prisonculture.bsky.social kept repeating at a workshop I attended last year: "Most people are not brave"

Well, I think we have confirmed that the revolution will not be televised

I still fail to understand why I need the expensive glasses connected to the power-hog plagiarism machine when I can just go to maangchi.

@bsky.app @safety.bsky.app when are we going to get private mode? It's going to be vital for people's safety....

We cannot make the headlines blunter people www.theverge.com/policy/77979...

NOT NOW MUPPET SHOW

lol and still nobody’s gonna watch Fallon

Doesn't matter if Jimmy Kimmel is a wanker. If the US government is silencing comedians for joking about their favorite podcaster then you're in full blown authoritarianism territory

I guess I'm "complain to General Mills about the terrible new recipe for Chex Mix Bold" years old now

Equality Caucus Rep. Mark Takano calls on Speaker Johnson and GOP House leadership to reign in their party's extreme rhetoric in trans people per this statement that just hit my inbox:
