Damn I’m glad I put my phone in at Otterbox.

Yes, some people's legacies are complicated. For example, Watson. After all, though he was racist, don't forget his other traits. For example, he was also sexist. And also anti-semitic. And a data / idea thief. So let's not forget all the different facets.

I need to emphasize what I say down-thread: this is a temporary, procedural move known as an administrative stay issued in haste by Justice Jackson. Little to nothing should be read into this ruling for how SCOTUS might ultimately rule on SNAP—either way.

Republicans are forcing air traffic controllers and Tsa to resign going into the holidays. These Republicans are nothing but scum.

Trump to Americans right now

Subsidies, debt backstopping, etc. We will be left holding the bag. Must be nice to reap all the reward without the risk.

Yes. And you might be right. This might cause mass rioting. But if there’s mass rioting they can try to invoke the Insurrection Act. And they really want to use the Insurrection Act.

Crockett: When you go and you hit those booths come the midterms, think about which party decided that it was okay to literally be on vacation while people were going hungry in the streets of America.

They're cowards. Bovino is of the right age to have deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, but his entire career has been bullying people who can't legally fight back. We'll soon get video of his deposition. In whatever form it might take, I expect his downfall will be deliciously well deserved.

How about the Inflated Costume Protestors get Deputized and arrest the National Guard! 🥳

Contempt and a day in jail—at least. Then there’s a chance his conduct can be stopped. Fail to jail a man like this doing something like this and he’ll start doing things 500% worse. If Trump had been jailed for his NYMA Attempted Murder, none of what’s happened would’ve happened.

Hey! Calling all Wonder Women! We all are sisters…pulling together with one spirit. 50 years ago today the first episode of the series Wonder Woman aired.

Just two days ago, hundreds of scientists, healthcare and public health professionals rallied to demand RFK’s removal. Members of Congress joined them. The press showed up - but coverage didn’t. The press, too, has failed public health.

Check your ballot. It’s possible that it’s been challenged due to leaving the ballot envelope unsigned or a signature mismatch. You can cure that with King County Elections so your ballot is counted! kingcounty.gov/en/dept/elec...

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

When people celebrate the individual genius of folks in science, they should also mourn the collective loss of genius of folks who were actively discouraged or disadvantaged from a career in science because of the same person(s)

So the one to 25,000 bad apples in the NYPD are "self-deporting?" What a great way to weed out the most prejudiced assholes. Congratulations, New York City!

Repost if you remember this 🔄

It’s amazing that Republicans are suddenly concerned with how much money insurance companies are making. We would be happy to sit down with you to fix that problem. But I suspect that just might be a red herring to distract from the fact that they just want to kill the ACA.

Prosecute them all! bsky.app/profile/bigd...

the lesson from 2008 was to nationalize and restructure the banks and pass regulation so that it couldn't happen again; I would be fine if OpenAI were nationalized and restructured, a bailout would be a joke

Is this in U.S. news? #AcademicSky www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

BREAKING: Judge Immergut issues a permanent injunction against Pete Hegseth and the deployment of the National Guard to Portland. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

My go to argument for"You know how I know there's some serious shit in these files that they're scared of?" Is just to point at Andrew and his current status. There's a reason him being stripped of his titles is a pretty BFD.

i was really skeptical that this was the case at the beginning, but i'm not sure what other explanation makes sense at this point

People want more affordable health insurance, not a savings account. This is just a Republican bait-and-switch to repeal Obamacare for the 70th time. Let’s get serious — extend the health care tax credits and open the government.

Tonight, the evil, terrorist nation of Russia is launching ballistic missiles and drones at civilians again, like they do every night. Putin will rot

No, no, no. Trump said this is all lies, and he usually is pretty accurate when he cites numbers and statistics.

"Very chaotic. No chain of command." She was maced three times in the face INSIDE THE CAR. Then, no arrests. No paperwork. No medical attention; then, after a few hours, released. Just thugs wilding out.

When I am conscious and aware enough, I try to ask myself, Is this in alignment with my purpose and values? Whatever it is I'm giving my time and energy to. Is it moving me forward to where I want to be, and who I want to be?

These gangsters are using the email addresses of govt employees to send out messages to their address lists blaming Democrats for the shut down without their consent. Leave the damn civil servants who just want to do their jobs out of your illegal hackery.

So Hegseth is firing troublesome generals. Why? Don't forget this great movie, based on a fine novel, about a plot in the military to take over the USA. A military coup...In our case the Commander in Chief would be part of it. If you've never seen the movie, just see it as a really good film.

I'm sure he's looking up at us right now.

First-in-class politician, For the People. Courageous, class act, who actually passed the torch. Punch-thrower and in stilettos. Hot dog consumer, as if she wasn’t cool enough. Savior of paid leave. Historymaker, trailblazer. I want to be like Nancy Pelosi when I grow up.

Hey Peeps!! Mitch McConnell is retiring & Col. Pamela Stephens, a former Air Force JAG & Dem leader of the Kentucky House is running to replace him. And did I mention Pamela is a Black Woman?!!! I am all in to help this dynamic Sister & tried and true advocate for the people win. Let’s GOOO

that's neat, but 99% of voters very demonstrably do not do this. they either vote for the same party they always vote for, or swing based on some bizarre, almost ineffable change in public mood

Floating the idea of a Middle Earth TTRPG campaign where you work at the Prancing Pony and your boss has sent you to collect seven dollars from the Black Rider who did seven dollars worth of damage while roughly looking for the Fellowship.

Put another way, I think people are more scared of drinking something that they think could kill anyone, versus experiencing a condition that they believe could never happen to them—even though it very well could

Nearly half of US air freight is shipped via passenger planes, so the Republican government shutdown will further raise the costs of goods.

He knows exactly what he did. Down to the numbers. Don't Let this disappear. EVER 🤬

It's important to remember that while the degree to which James Watson deliberately stole from Rosalind Franklin is still in dispute, he also shit on her in his memoir for no apparent reason other than to save face and then spent the last two decades of his life pushing bullshit race science.

I knew he would do this. He is going to drag as much to the Supreme Court as he can. He can’t just let people buy food without a fight.

I have a LOT of feckin' feelings about Rosalind Franklin, discoverer of the structure of DNA, and goddamn MEN.
