I have suffered uncomplaining through thousands of multistep logins in the name of security. I thought it could not get worse but I was wrong. #CUNY

So much love and admiration for our dear @msrachelforlittles.bsky.social - and you all can now join @jfrejnyc.bsky.social, @rabbis4ceasefire.bsky.social, and thousands of other Jews in showing her our love and support! jfrej.org/msrachel

Does anyone else in their fifties notice that they need to lie down and drop into an inky abyss of sleep for 20 minutes or so every afternoon?

Pop star Sabrina Carpenter slams the White House for using “Juno” in an ICE arrest video: “This video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”

O Come All Ye Faithful and 2000 Miles by the Pretenders

What is your favorite "Christian" Christmas song and what is your favorite "Secular" Christmas song? I will probably always adore "O Come All Ye Faithful" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" for Christian. And "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" for secular.

Just pure evil. No other word to use.

You don’t get to pick. That’s the whole damn point of the rule of law.

2/ nor can we forget Thomas Fugate, the 22 year old Trump campaign worked appointed as the lead counter terrorism coordinator at DHS.

You may not see them, but they are very much welcome guests at our Thanksgiving table. Most of us won’t actually see the farm and meatpacking workers at our family feast this year, but that doesn’t mean their presence won’t be felt or should go unappreciated: open.substack.com/pub/americas...

Does anyone in Baltimore need (or could use) a 20 lb turkey? Because reasons, we have acquired one, and while we can come up with uses for it, it's A Problem for my allergy issues and if someone needs it more, Sarah is happy to deliver anywhere in Baltimore

I can totally see this happening at my campus but am going to infuse as much history as I can into public health classes idc idc

Can you spread the word about weaintbuyingit.com? This is one of the easiest and safest ways possible to fight back against the current administration. If you've been saying there's nothing you can do - you're wrong! All you have to do is not buy from Amazon, Home Depot, or Target for five days.

Everyone should read this!

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

A couple weeks ago I made a to-do list with the item “grade like the wind” on it and now every time I think about how completely behind I am I start humming this song. youtu.be/kA9uaBqvRtA?...

I am gutted to learn of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social (Alice Wong’s) passing. She was always a warm friend, a wonderful spirit, and someone who fostered my own growth. She helped me see that, as a #disabled person with chronic illness, I matter—I am whole. I’ll be posting some of Alice’s work. ❤️ forever

Today, the BBC bent the knee. Yesterday, it came out that a NYT reporter had with emails from Jeffrey Epstein in 2015 that were highly damaging to Trump and were never disclosed to the public. This is on top of WaPo, ABC, CBS all capitulating. Support pro-democracy media. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

You probably saw videos of a nighttime raid in Chicago. Agents rappelling from a helicopter, bursting down doors, questioning brown-skinned immigrants. We investigated -- and found little evidence to support the government’s claims about Tren de Aragua. www.propublica.org/article/chic...

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

What did the NY Times PUBLISHERS know about this offer? bsky.app/profile/data...

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015 What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

Adelita Grijalva is FINALLY sworn in and is now officially a member of Congress

lol the White House is concerned about selective release of information creating a fake narrative.

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov! Americans gave you a clear assignment last Tuesday, and you didn’t understand it. Now, we are giving you another one: Step down and allow a Democrat with a spine to unite your caucus for the good of all Americans. Remember what you told Biden? Now, tell it to yourself.

all bets are, or should be, off -- what is the point of trying to eke out incremental legislative or spending compromises when your counterparty is clearly signaling that they may not honor them (cf. Mike Johnson), or when the executive has shown itself unwilling to be beholden to law at all? 6/

#ProudBlue #ResistanseUnited #DV1 Thank you, @ossoff.senate.gov, for voting NO on the CR. He’s facing a challenging re-election battle next year. Georgians, your healthcare and hospitals have always been his priority. Re-elect the keeper in 2026.

Tonight was a very bad night.

My statement on the proposed Senate deal

"HEY CHUCK! FIGHT DON'T FOLD!" @bkindivisible.bsky.social turning out across the street from @schumer.senate.gov's apartment in brooklyn

Hey Senator, since you won’t let me leave a voicemail in your off hours, let me just say right here that you’re a gullible fucking sap

the Dems are like if 'Self Esteem' by The Offspring was a political party.

Thank you @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

Is anyone watching the Senate floor right now? Cassidy is making an insane speech right now.

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

BREAKING: A man who threw a sandwich at a federal agent during Trump’s law enforcement surge in Washington, D.C., is found not guilty of assault.

It seems this can't be emphasized enough. Chatbots and LLMs do not make mistakes (excepting any bugs in the code). They do not lie. They do not blackmail or cheat. They follow statistics. When the people who build these systems don't tell you this, they are either deluded or trying to mislead.

I mean… I am 100% leaning into whatever we call this. Yes.

no one thought in 2000 that 25 years later they would hate ryan adams waaaay more than bryan adams but here we are
