Brilliant!

This is delusional but you don’t have to read the whole thing. Boils down to: he’s shutting down the government because he thinks he’s a king.

Apple has pulled The Savant, its series starring Jessica Chastain’s about hunting down white supremacist cells across America, from its immediate release schedule.

Here ya go! I agree..

Yes!

I was just notified of ANOTHER death in ICE custody — the 16th since Trump took office. The second death TODAY. This is absolutely unacceptable.

@greatdoglit.bsky.social community and friends take note!

Oh dear. It seems Dr. Oz’s company sells Trump‘s big autism cure. What a crazy happenstance.

We've said it before. Do yourself a favor, @schumer.senate.gov. #ResignChuckSchumer

Great thread. Slight addition: NYT Opinion is a branding endeavor, and also an outrage machine designed to troll mostly liberals for clicks and drive subcriptions. Under Sulzberger NYT Opinion‘s goal is to get attention, not inform. See also: Tom Cotton op-ed, Bari Weiss, Bret Stephens.

BTW very happy that you, a fellow kidlit AD, are so active on here. If only more of our colleagues would join us. 💙❤️

Dr. Oz is a large investor in and global advisor for iHerb, a company that sells supplements for folinic acid, which is the the non-prescription version of leucovorin, the medication which is being recommended for the treatment of autism by Dr. Oz.

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

My favorite moment at tonight's dinner was when @chriswarcraft.bsky.social asked how many people in a room of 150+ hardcore Dem voters and volunteers approved of the job @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov were doing, and no one raised a hand.

Headed to bed, but here's a prelim report on today's gorgeous Sun Day billmckibben.substack.com/p/the-sun-sh...

Consider the possibility that the main reason for the Trump regime's persecution of immigrants isn't to exploit bigotry to attract votes – it's to expand ICE's spending and thus create more opportunities for bribery in government contracts.

BREAKING: I found a partial thesaurus sent by the New York Times to the staff for use in the headlines when reporting on Trump's administration.

"So instead of railing against the ways I see us falling short, I’m going to hold tighter to the principle of equifinality. I’ll keep doing my level best to understand what different groups are trying to do, and to highlight the work that inspires me." Thanks @lizneeley.bsky.social !!!

Who's making the T-shirt?

I condemn political violence, as everyone should. But condemning political violence and honoring a man who spoke hate are not the same.

What goes around comes around

Re: new the anti-science propagandists! Call your electeds!

Let's look at the resolution. It condemns all political violence. That's great. It also honors the legacy of Kirk. So the 95 @demhouse2024.bsky.social voted for the propagandized version of the man--the 'handmaiden' of our fragmentation. What's wrong with y'all?

Really, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social what is wrong with you??? Please people, let him know if you think this is awful.

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us. We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again. That's the revolution.

This is what it looks like when ICE violates our First Amendment rights.

Now is a good time to cancel the subscriptions of CBS/Paramount and ABC/Hulu/Disney/ESPN. There are other ways to get any shows one wants. ;)

“Imagine if Congress declared Wyoming a Federal Natural Resource District…managed by the government and no longer have congressional representation. Republicans would of course be appalled. Disenfranchising 600,000 people who live in Wyoming would be immoral.”

Yup, @nytimes.com G Gonsalves is correct!

I’ve been too unwell to work for most of this year due to a breakdown. If you enjoy my photos & have a spare second or two might you be able to RT my workshop in my previous post? It would help so much. Thankyou 🌿

Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading. Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own. Just. Keep. Reading.

The most impactful way to complain about Kimmel. Fellow Portlanders: We do have a Sinclair station, and it's katu.com (ABC). (Reposting for alt-text).

Please listen!

Yup. It can be inconvenient to engage in boycott, but sticking with a boycott does bring satisfaction that in a small way, you're stepping in the right direction.

Whew!

I mean we have to imagine an information environment during an election where he saying this stuff and no one in legacy media is allowed to contradict or correct let alone criticize it. If you think thats not possible you are simply not paying attention.

I gave my heart and soul to that place. Built entire sections for journalists pushed out of their home countries. When the writer I hired, Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by Saudi Arabia, they paraded me around as a symbol for press freedom. I put MY LIFE on the line to defend journalism and WaPo.

Agreed and proud to be a member of the WGA.

Today a coalition of federal workers has released the Civil Servants’ Declaration. We have frequently asked questions here. “Why this letter? Because the Trump administration is engaged in an assault on the Constitution…” Please read!

These ACIP members literally don't even know what the current ACIP recommendations for the vaccines they are voting on are

Writers Guild protest is starting now at the Disney gate in Burbank….

Akiko Iwasaki had to cut in on the discussion to introduce herself! She talked about the importance of tackling the root causes of Long COVID symptoms, saying that we need biomarkers that can differentiate people who have viral persistence vs autoimmunity vs chronic inflammation, etc.

100%

Canceling Jimmy Kimmel show is not about Charlie Kirk, just like going after universities was not about antisemitism and occupying DC was not about fighting crime.

I am flummoxed as to why you are tripling down. You don't even... acknowledge that you can have this stance, as is your right, because you, your life, your marriage, your sexuality, and your family are not being targeted by the people you say are doing politics "right." It is astonishing to witness.

I’m old enough to remember when Bob Iger, whose company recently paid $16 million to settle a meritless Trump lawsuit, and who just indefinitely suspended Jimmy Kimmel under pressure from the Trump administration, was a chair for the **Committee to Protect Journalists** dinner.
