If you are looking for a reason to support @workingfamilies.org it might be worth knowing that this hoodie is probably the softest one I've ever owned. Just in case that's your jam. store.workingfamilies.org/products/wfp...

currently reading a whole bunch of petitions and editorials from black americans of the revolutionary era and it is so striking (and frankly inspiring) to see how the ink wasn't even dry on the declaration before black americans were demanding that the patriots live up to their stated ideals

I’ve dug through thousands of exhibit files of FBI “evidence” taken in raids of the defendants’ homes. the federal government’s version of what happened that night — the basis of their “terrorism” — was a fraction of the files. the bulk is zines, books, stickers, patches: First Amendment activity.

BREAKING: BOSTON (AP) - Federal judge bars Trump from implementing proof of citizenship requirement to vote.

Musk says not a single person has died due to him axing USAID. Sadly, part of my job involves tracking aid spending. So here’s a thread with just some of the people who lost their lives because of USAID cuts

The fact that we’re learning about this secretive profiling of activists thanks to a data leak is also ironic. Clearly MSG is incapable of safeguarding the data they collect and store, and this includes the massive trove of biometric data their face scanning system collects...

The #Prairieland verdicts AND the Supreme Court decision in Louisiana regarding the cutting of that Rastafarian man’s locs is another example of forum shopping. All of this is happening in the 5th Circuit Court to then go to the Supreme Court & affect ALL OF US.

How many Massachusetts residents have been killed by cars, either while walking or biking, in the last 30 days? Is no one in leadership willing to speak to this pattern? All of the hand wringing about "kids these days" but we have crafted this hellscape for them to navigate and then shrug. #mapoli

Hmm. Aren't parties built by the candidates who run as Democrats and then raise $$, bring in volunteers, and tell a story of what might be possible if we win? Isn’t the party actually the voters, not the gatekeepers?

hello everyone i am working on a big piece for guardian about the CURRENT STATE OF MUSIC ZINES!!!! i have many already but i want to get as many as poss from FAR AND WIDE in uk so pls either fill out the form here or email me directly (email on my website in bio) www.theguardian.com/music/2026/j...

Writing is thinking! Editing is clarifying your thoughts!

I visited some of the defendants while they were being held in a North Texas jail, to hear their stories and experiences in incarceration over the last year. if you're wondering who these defendants are, my story will be up in the morning.

If you're still wondering about whether to buy that new pair of shoes or taking a nice vacation, just do it. At least you'll be buying something you want instead of watching your money wasted on a swamp where the Reflecting Pool used to be and now a fence being installed around it.

"People understand gender differently, and I was taught to respect all ideas. But the vitriol I recently experienced was not a healthy debate." #MsReads via @theguardian.com

For the past 20 years, Zuckerberg's only idea has been "what if we made a worse, somehow even more unethical version of another company's product"

The evidence of an illegal conspiracy is non-existent, but this is how the authoritarian dragnet targets those fighting against repression. Everyone should be learning about this case. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

And a lot of us are still eligible for the HPV vaccine! You don't have to be a teen to get it!

One of the biggest problems with conspiracy thinking is that it primes your brain for more conspiracy thinking. This is why the “we should recruit the conspiracy theorists to the left with good conspiracy theories” is flawed. It warps your mind.

The ideology in question is opposing fascism. This horrific action is a shot across the bow at all of us—everyone who cares about their neighbors, who dares to dream of a better world, who opposes ICE terror and authoritarian repression. We cannot allow the state to disappear them.

People who should absolutely know 100% better are getting real fast and loose with sharing and promoting AI generated garbage images when it's time to make a little jokey joke about the reflecting pool or Trump's appearance and I need y'all to lock the hell in.

honestly am pretty devastated by this ruling-- so much work has gone into this ballot initiative (which got a record number of signatures in its first round).

Wow. Prairieland defendants being handed sentences between 40 and 100 years. For background on this case: www.ms.now/news/antifa-...

Couldn't be clearer that they're punishing the BELIEFS of these anti-ICE protesters, not their property-damaging (& for one, violent) actions.

Literally this!! The way so many majority opinions now are just reheated Clarence Thomas dissents?? You gotta start charting that shit out! This kind of dissenting forwards and laying out a jurisprudence in waiting is one of the things I call for in The Originalism Trap bsky.app/profile/alic...

My car has lane keep and responsive cruise control (it slows with traffic) and honestly that is the closest I want to.get to self driving. It's already a little unnerving.

I'm just so happy for all my Cape Verdean friends.

“There’s not season 30 without a day 1.” — Rebecca Lobo. She’s absolutely right.

Happy 30 years to my delusion of wanting to be an author and professional basketball player. One out of two ain't bad. #wnba

Listing "Be beige, not rainbow" as a "desired outcome" is the most tragically comedic sh*t I've read this week.

"be beige, not rainbow" is about the bleakest fucking existence I can imagine.

Tesla has killed a really staggering number of people, like, in ways that no other car manufacturer ever has. Cars are SO dangerous, and they invented multiple new avenues for their vehicles to kill pedestrians, other drivers, and their own occupants.

NY-10 candidate @bradlander.bsky.social and family voted today in Park Slope! Today's the LAST day of early voting - find your poll site here, NYC! findmypollsite.vote.nyc Otherwise, Election Day is June 23! Dontcha dare miss it!

Literally nothing I could get @clbergpowers.bsky.social would be as exciting as she is having gotten this from @jonathancohn.bsky.social

17 yrs ago I stayed over my dad's house on his couch because @blackjew.bsky.social and I lived together but were traditional enough to not see each other before the wedding. Today our kiddo is asleep on the couch because after her bat mitzvah she wanted to watch Bluey with him until she fell asleep.

For my 43rd birthday I got an epic gift from @jonathancohn.bsky.social. IYKYK. I bet a lot of #mapoli is jealous that I now have this piece of history. It still had some of the wall puddy on it. How you know it's authentic.

In the hour and eighteen minutes that I have been 43 I have mended my daughter's bat mitzvah outfit, written my speech, and braided and baked rainbow challah for after services (I froze dough from last week's pride Shabbat when she requested rainbow). Hopefully I can sleep!

18 years ago tonight, @blackjew.bsky.social met my parents, two days before our first actual date. Tonight we're getting ready for our daughter's bat mitzvah tomorrow. A lifetime together, and I'm so lucky.

The politics of white grievance doesn’t just unite the right. It also tames the not-right. In my world, for example, social scientists are THRILLED to finally bench critical scholarship. same stories from every profession , every club, every institution — they’re all enjoying this.

its like a crime scene in a captain planet cartoon

And OpenAI doesn’t get to pretend they haven’t sold ChatGPT as a reliable confidant and even as a therapist. Here is Lilian Weng, then head of safety for OpenAI in 2023

Other journalists, please take note that it is entirely possible to describe cops shooting people without using the special passive voice reserved for law enforcement and very special conservative boys with Nazi leanings.

I'm watching the Anne Hathaway goes on the road with a boy band and dates the 24 year old singer movie and the movie is fine but the fantasy is definitely not my thing. He legitimately looks like a child to me.

Social Security isn’t going to run dry by accident. Income inequality is draining it. Once someone makes more than $182,000, they stop paying into Social Security. Lift the cap. Make billionaires pay their fair share. Protect Social Security. #HandsOffSocialSecurity

I’d be overjoyed if this is what teens decided to spend their time doing. Having bus meetups and celebrating public transit? Hell yeah. What’s next? Parties at the library? Bring it.

This is ridiculous. The mayor says teens are congregating and taking "joy rides" because the buses are free. Seems pretty clear that teens are lacking recreation if free buses is a good time. Maybe address that instead of taking that away and making it harder for everyone else in the process.

It’s been five years since Alex Jones lost InfoWars to the Sandy Hook families. As the verdict came down, he asked: “Do these people actually believe they’re getting any money?” He hasn't paid them a penny. Well, The Onion is going pay them anyway. The new InfoWars begins July 2nd at 8 p.m. ET.
