The password to the Louvre’s video surveillance system was “Louvre,” according to a museum employee

most men lead lives of quiet desperation but some never shut the fuck up about it

This is super cool, and a real validation of the ecosystem. Forget all the whining about filter bubbles or what not. What's happening here is important, in large part because it allows people to build cool shit, not wait for some billionaire to order a lackey to build what they want at your expense

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

Officials are asking residents of Yazoo City to shelter in place after an ammonia plant exploded around 4:25 p.m. at CF Industries on Wednesday.

omg, the flemish giant rabbit looks like a Pokémon.

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo

No one should engage in any discourse about whether women should work. Any such utterances should be laughed out of the room. That debate is over. Full stop. No further discussion is necessary. What remains are dominative fantasies & I do not consent. The end.

omg 🖤

It’s been a pleasure working with Lex and everyone in the politics vertical at Teen Vogue. I’m heartbroken that my column, Disability Visibility, is gone. Teen Vogue was one of the few places that published disabled journalists regularly. I just spent the last 2 months working on my next column

Trump has long done this -- misreading a phrase on the TelePrompTer, pretending like he meant to make the mistake and rambling until he gets back on topic -- but this tangent wandered so far it set off a Silver Alert.

Need someone to do this for me

LOCAL ELECTION RESULT: Let me congratulate @zysaidso.bsky.social for her election to the Charlottesville School Board. For those wondering: Zyahna Bryant was a student organizer who led the successful fight in removing two confederate statues from downtown Charlottesville.

Zohran Mamdani’s historic election in the New York City mayoral race sent President Donald Trump and his allies into immediate hysterics. The incoming mayor’s response: “To get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us.”

It's so funny that people consider Zohran radical. Like that's really funny to me. Like damn how far to the right is the average centrist man they should really examine that shit.

saaaaaame.

The “Future of the Democratic Party” are leaders who’ve passed laws and/or flipped a seat blue like Lauren Underwood, Sharice Davids, Joe Neguse and Shontel Brown. Not social media influencers who talk a love attention but have accomplished nothing.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong, it is right. No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness, it is a strength. No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited, it is unlimited.

I do now. It took a lot of therapy. But I do now. I will always feel love even if everyone left me, because I finally love myself. Everyone else in my life loving me are the toppings to my sundae

Mind you, Mamdani is not the only person to be different and try in recent history. Baltimore is an example of that too. They keep trying to convince us these are one offs and flashes in the pan that could/would never happen again bc they want to kill our hope and the drive to try that it creates.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

From Erin Reed: Loudoun County—from which Trump threated to withhold fed funding for upholding restroom access—rejected anti-trans Rep & elected 2 trans rights Dems.--incl. one who represented trans students in court against outgoing anti-trans Rep Gov Glenn Youngkin.

So, today, 2 months later, #TeenVogue fires their entire politics staff. Silencing youth, silencing women and severing a line of hope to a generation that will have horrific consequences in the face of relentless authoritarianism. What an evil deed.

Former Teen Vogue politics editor Allegra Kirkland pays homage to ... what ... OUUUUCH: talkingpointsmemo.com/cafe/what-we...

Diese Warnung ist unmissverständlich. @francescabria.bsky.social & @josebautista.bsky.social haben das Vorgehen von US-Big-Tech kartografiert. Ihre Fazit: Ein autoritäres Netzwerk ist auch hier dabei den Staat zu privatisieren. Wir müssen #Palantir & Co den Stecker ziehen bevor es zu spät ist.

The attacks against Black women are sending a loud message: "Black women are not valued." The problem with that is... we have value. We're important to the economy. We're parents. We're educated. We're community pillars. We're people. And undervaluing us will cost everyone. #TheDoubleTax

TLDR: the late Devah Pager finds that stores that engage in discrimination were more likely to close in six years than those who didn't. Do with that what you will. 🤷🏿‍♀️
