Where on earth are they getting these guys?

Women increased their share in occupations where they are majority (nurses, teachers, social work), jobs that don't pay as well as other professional jobs. 80% in 2023 vs. 77% in 1980. Women are still only 38% of majority-male professional jobs vs 23% in 1980. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

“While researching photos, I always come across more interesting images than I need,” senior editor Alan Taylor writes. “The best of those, I’ve been tucking into a folder.”

This weekend, we are looking at extremely high temperatures - with heat advisories in effect across North Carolina. Make sure your weekend includes plans to stay inside if possible and cool and hydrated if not.

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

You can measure a society’s political freedom by how openly comedians are able to mock or satirize the government. CBS’s decision to silence Stephen Colbert, announcing the impending end of The Late Show, is another incipient sign of trouble in the United States. open.substack.com/pub/fridains...

If my taxes don’t pave my roads or fix my bridges or keep my schools open 5 days a week or pay local teachers a living wage or help keep my hospital open or help my neighbor’s kid eat lunch or fund public television or my healthcare… Why the f’ck should I pay taxes?

A reminder for all of us.

In order for America to truly be great? Poor white people need to wake up. It's that simple.

A nonprofit organization has been collaborating with counties across the state to promote change. Recipients will receive a letter in the mail.

Trump’s ICE is not going after the “worst of the worst.” 72% of the people they’ve detained have ZERO CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS. It’s U.S. citizens, people with legal status, and people who have been here for decades, contributing to our country.

This. I realize "the ends justify the means" is the ultimate realpolitik slippery slope but maybe I don't care as much as I thought I did

This term, the Supreme Court furthered LGBTQ+ erasure by allowing parents to ban books. In defiance, Justice Sotomayor included the entire “objectionable” book in her dissent—the innocence there for all to see. The internet can’t be banned. See for yourself. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Phang: Alina Habba could be unemployed as of this Tuesday— The good news is, if this parking lot lawyer doesn’t get to keep her role as a U.S. attorney, then the harm radius—the blast radius—gets minimized…

Through a spectacularly ham-handed series of moves, the Trump administration has ensured that Epstein conspiracy theories will never really end. @annamerlan.bsky.social fills us in on dead billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's remarkable moment of renewed relevance. Read more: bit.ly/40sQURw

At this point, we’re just a joke. But it’s not a very funny one. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/18/c...

In Italy women were expected to marry their rapist, which excused him from the crime legally, until the 1960s. Franca Viola, who had to face down both society and the Mafia when she refused to do this, should be known more widely as one of the great heroines.

These Coldplay concert cameras... 🤣

Federal funding for public broadcasting has now been eliminated. We are now in uncharted territory, but our commitment to you is not in doubt. We will continue to bring you the kind of reporting that our democracy depends on. Stand with us: michiganpublic.org/donate.

Buckle up Mr. Bo Cankles bc that story is just the beginning. (Maniacal Laugh)

This is such bullshit.

The fact he doesn't get it and thinks she's the problem, is the problem no matter what orders he didn't give. Fundamentally he's a fuckwit with no situational awareness.

The contortions they go through not to answer a question makes it perfectly clear what the real answer is.

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.

Neguse: Only in Washington, D.C. could politicians come to the floor and brag about cutting $9 billion from rural radio stations while two weeks ago they voted to increase the deficit by $4 trillion. Spare us these lectures.

Well now! (I couldn't agree more).. #politics #crime #fascism

We’re losing our constitutional rights. It shouldn’t matter your politics. This should be unacceptable to you.

I'm reading a lot of posts saying things like "I'm not political", or "I'm not interested in politics". You may not be interested in politics, but, trust me, politics is interested in YOU. We can't avoid politics, and the sooner everyone realizes that, the better off we'll be.

So much for that “line.”
