When you’re angry at Ryan Grim, it’s better to say that explicitly than to talk vaguely about “leftists.” That guy does not represent the left. (And yes, he’s extremely wrong about MTG and many other things.)

If anyone’s looking for alternative to NYT Cooking, heartily recommend America’s Test Kitchen. Their app is great, they air on public tv, and they’re union!

if it seems like i post a lot about renewable energy lately, yes it's because i am betting the entirety of what hopes i have left for a better world in my lifetime into that basket

After years of union-busting and no contract, tens of thousands of REI members have pledged to boycott REI’s Anniversary Sale May 15-25. Solidarity with @reiunion.bsky.social in their fight for a fair contract. Stand with REI workers and don’t shop during the sale!

landlords, and airbnb hosts most of all, operate under the incredible delusion that they are entitled to infinite, guaranteed profit. all reward, no risk.

I stand with workers, with immigrants, and with everyone who calls DC home. On May Day, we’re reminded that our fights are connected. From the picket line to the push for a free DC, this is about us having power over our lives. We show up. We stand together. And we don’t stop.

people don’t have kids for lots of reasons, some financial, some personal and tragic, some personal and not tragic, etc the obsession with birth rates is creepy and gross

This is how our cats look when we clean their litter boxes.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars. We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director. Please stand by for more.

WHATS UP YOU WET MOTHERFUCKERS

and if they like it they are traitors to the constitution. i have to live with them, in the sense that i will not kill or de-citizen them, but i don't have to respect them because they live in the plains or a former steel town. if that is what they believe my beliefs are more american than theirs

if you're feeling stressed or anxious it’s your body's way of telling you to watch this cj abrams bomb

We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today. Tell ProPublica’s management you won’t cross the picket line: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...

I got shingles when I was 35, it sucks, get the vaccine if you can

every time i write about wage theft i do a double take because it's so crazy corporations steal more than $50 bn from workers' paychecks each year, illegally paying workers less than they earned for their labor that significantly exceeds the combined losses from larceny, burglary, & vehicle theft

Neighbors on HBO is maybe the most American tv show ever? Profiles probably the highest propensity voters in the country.

adam says it much more succintly. the american right will happily impoverish the united states and make it an oversized backwater if it means they can dominate women and minorities and play act as a master class

Lmao what’s going on in Philly, go nats

Happy birthday to the Washington Metro, which opened 50 years ago today with service on 4.6 mi of Red Line between Rhode Is. Ave & Farragut N. System now serves 130 mi. The DC Metro shows that, with good planning & enough investment, the public sector can succeed & build something extraordinary.

If Duke has no haters, I am dead.

Ta-Nehisi Coates: “We'll come out of this. And let me tell you something: If none of us are here to see it, tell your children who the cowards were.”

I feel like the great lesson of the Civil War is that amateur armies of shopkeepers, farm laborers, and clerks can, when well armed and supplied, beat the absolute piss out of a chivalry-obsessed gentry class and their allies among the smallholders

Every picture of ICE agents in airports is just this again

OH. MY. GAWD.

I grew up in a progressive mainline denomination (disciples of Christ), with women as pastors and deacons. I remember the first time I went to a southern baptist service with a friend and was appalled. I wouldnt have had the language for it as a 10 year old, but that was a feminist awakening for me.

30 years ago tonight:

"Kentucky’s burgeoning tenant union has won its first major battle — a collectively bargained lease for some of its members, the first of its kind in the southern U.S., according to the group."

NO NO NO YOU DON’T GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL tell everyone you know www.freetaxusa.com

Having suffered the pain of a tooth infection I can unequivocally say that this man died in absolute agony. The type of nerve pain that will have you screaming and wondering quite rightly if you’ve gone insane This man was tortured through neglect, and everyone involved is an irredeemable monster

Good morning! Yes, this is he

MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. GO DONATE. tcpipeline.org

I’ve done a reasonable job of keeping my wits about me the past year but this is sending me to a dark place.

I’m having the reverse problem I had with macfadyen in Succession. You mean River Cartwright is playing Mr Darcy? Him??

lesbians > desbiens imo

Of all the things we are doing in MN, this one is just beyond. Imagine being released from hell alone in the cold. And a total stranger has waited all night with a blanket just to be ready to hug you and carry you home. Every job we do is crucial, but this one is what restores humanity and dignity.

Don't forget that Queen Elizabeth did everything in her power to prevent this day from coming

What happens when a mf doesn’t read theory lol

One thing about me: I love material history

Congressional Republicans are going to deprive D.C. of $700 million in revenue and repeal a local program projected to reduce child poverty by 20 percent, solely to spite District residents and make us suffer. They’re also throwing our tax filing into utter chaos. This is a disaster.

Anybody who wants to help reject an ICE prison camp in their community, this has some concrete things you can do to get the project killed

make sports betting illegal again

Put this lady in charge of the dnc, this is the energy we want

liam and his dad are home! and someone please get rep. castro a coat!

His voice cracked as he spoke.“Nurses are shift workers,” he said. “We always aim to leave our relief shift set up for success, to carry on the sacred work of care in the best way possible.” “Alex is now relieved. That means now it’s up to us to carry the work forward.”

Everything is gender

If I hear one single dem say “I think we should look forward, not back”, I swear to god

Wise words from WEB DuBois to gird us today: "It would be shame and cowardice to surrender this glorious land and its opportunities for civilization and humanity to the thugs and lynchers, the mobs and profiteers, the monopolists & gamblers who today choke its soul and steal its resources."
