Everybody - AND I MEAN EVERYBODY - should read this investigation into that hell hole Twitter and how this nine-month study and in-depth analysis found that it amplifies right-wing and extreme content (aka, the Nazi bar) This is *very* good investigative journalism and should ring alarm bells. 🚨🚨🚨

This is an incredible opportunity. Prof Riede is a world class scholar and human being, and I know the department is stellar. Please share widely 🏺

Wake up, Dick! I want you to see droves of New Yorkers voting in a Muslim socialist as mayor! Dick?

They say to speak only good of the dead. Dick Cheney is dead. Good.

If there was such a rich person, I run an underfunded media org that would love to be able to hire more people to cover issues related to democracy. *hint* *hint* www.techdirt.com/2025/03/04/w...

I am so upset. Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Here’s my my pitch for why you care about your state attorney general. The entire conservative judicial machine *depends* on conservative state attorney generals. John Roberts can’t take a case asking to destroy voting rights if a state attorney generals doesn’t bring it.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Happy Halloween!! 🎃

“Jewish New Yorkers are not single-issue voters living in fear. We are looking for a mayor who can build a coalition to improve our already great city.” Great op-ed by former NYC Corp Counsel & Jewish communal leader Victor Kovner on why he’s supporting @ZohranKMamdani. forward.com/opinion/7782...

Excuse me what? The RIAA is now funding NCOSE to file bullshit amicus briefs before the Supreme Court?!? That is way more fucked up than even usual RIAA nonsense. Let me explain...

What Nixon and Reagan stole from us by defunding public higher education: in 1957, Jean Childs Young was getting her Master’s at Queens College CUNY for $18/semester. Minimum wage in 1957 was $1/hour, so you could get a semester’s worth of Master’s degree for less than a half-week of minimum wage.

Rebecca Heineman is probably best known for coding 3DO Doom from zero in 10 weeks after being told it just needed "polish" - the licensee didn't understand what porting involved. Since hearing that story, she's someone I've looked up to a lot. Now, she's got a different struggle...

This is ace

this statement by the American Council of Learned Societies, one of the key orgs in higher ed, is exactly right. reject the 'compact'. no ifs, no studies. read and share and, for your opeds, steal.

This is also why Musk bought Twitter. Remember, Musk *originally backed out of the deal,* because it made no financial sense to take Twitter private. Then the news stories about his babymommas started to drop. Elsewhere, I've written about how Musk behaves like someone has kompromat on him.

fellas, it is "woke" to point out when the administration is violating most of the Bill of Rights

Unfortunate update: Link reached out to BlueSky and got email back now on reason. His appeal is denied. He will remain permanently banned on BlueSky’s side. Here are the screenshots he just sent me as of 8:22 AM EST(my time)

Suspending Link after he pointed out the how following Jonathan Chait after being accused of transphobia does not allow you to beat the transphobia allegations. In fact, it does the opposite. To be clear: suspending Link was certainly a choice. And we know what KIND of choice it is.

Revlimid has its origin in a pill that cost patients $7.50 each. Decades later, the cancer drug costs more than $18,000 for a month’s supply — even though it still only costs about 25 cents to manufacture. Read @davidarmstrongx.bsky.social's award-winning investigation:

New from 404 Media: landlords are demanding potential tenants hand over employer login credentials so a tool can verify their income. I was sent screenshot of the tool, Argyle, downloading much more data than necessary to approve the renter. Opt-out means no housing www.404media.co/landlords-de...
