If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

MAMDANI, on Bill Ackman: “.. He's spending more money against me than I would even tax him!" @casestudyqb.bsky.social #NYC

every single person who leaves a company leaves behind a locked trunk of tech debt in the form of “things only they knew.” if you think “AI will solve this!” I actually have a special oil you might be interested in purchasing, I collect it from snakes for this very reason.

Shout out to one of our cats for knowing I had to be up at 7am for a work trip and waking me up at 5:50am for good measure.

“I’ll declare war on you if you don’t give me the peace prize” is an incredible bit

how do people only have 2-5 tabs open at once what the fuck

Cops lie. All cops. Even federal border patrol cops.

there's been too much fighting on here - let's rerun Trump Is Secretly Dead this weekend, that was fun last time

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

1. A day after the Michigan church shooting, Republicans are silent after learning the shooter was a MAGA extremist. No investigations of Trump supporters as terrorists. No national conversations about the rights of cisgender men. The silence is deafening. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Periodic reminder: Hate takes effort to maintain. If it weren't for constant effort by fashy people to lie about Black folk, Brown folk, women, immigrants, trans folk, etc, that most people would choose *not* to support fashy people. Fascism requires an ongoing cost. Kindness is free!

This is why we call you Nazis, JD, because you KEEP DOING NAZI SHIT

Disney reverses course on Kimmel. Lessons: -Trump's anti-Constitutional stances, anti-1A in this case, are unpopular -Popular resistance via expression and spending choices can have an impact -Many corporate leaders are weak, amoral people who'll bow to threats unless they face countervailing ones

If you are one of the almost 100 Dems who voted to honor the guy who said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake, don’t bother asking Black people to vote for you, donate to you or canvass for you next year. Don’t bother. Please. And don’t be shocked if you get a primary opponent.

If you can be a horrid person and belief alone secures your heavenly home… perhaps we’ve misplaced our values

I am being smothered by a large cat

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

“You used to be able to say anything” comedians never been more quiet in their lives

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

I feel like listening to a 10min+ song is always a gamble, even one you've heard before. Are you still going to be in the right mood for minute 7 once you get there? Anyway, what the fuck. Just a new fucked up thing to read about each day after work huh

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments. that fox news host still has his job.

Do not register for a protest. Do not register for a protest. Do not register for a protest. Do not register for a protest. Law enforcement / prosecution in America runs on a model of “This Person Was The Geographically Closest Person Who Matches The Description” for arrests & indictments

Maybe Ezra Klein should have asked Ben Shapiro about his friend and fellow Daily Wire podcaster, Matt Walsh, who is calling for the death of everyone on the left and LGBTQ people.

The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States. 🔗 www.404media.co/doj-deletes-...

These are the same people who dismissed countless public and private studies that showed conclusively that right-wing violence was, by far, the most pressing threat in America. Now they're going to concoct something that purports to blame the left. Once again, it's all projection and bad faith.

Oh cool, JD couchfucker is off lying about violence, no mention of Republican comments after the attack on Paul Pelosi or the assassination of Melissa Hortman, Trump is giddy about blowing up another Venezuelan boat, and I'm just supposed to act all chill and just do my work. Neat system we got here

You're watching the death of democracy in real time. Fascism isn't coming, it is here. If you survive it, you will be forever asked by future generations what you did in these moments. Were you speaking out against it or quietly hoping it will just go away on its own.

It should be way bigger news that Trump effectively killed any attempt by foreign countries to build new factories in the United States with this idiotic ICE move. Just incalculable long term damage. Trump just killed his "build America" push www.wsj.com/world/asia/c...

Watching everyone from Dem politicians to baseball teams venerate Kirk is like pulling back a strip of wallpaper and realizing your house is full of mold.

What a fucking day for my performance reviews to have been due on. A better version of me would reflect on how my procrastination put me here, but that version is also off playing video games so, uh, rip future me.

Trump has never even acknowledged the shooting at CDC - where an anti-vax gunman sprayed hundreds of bullets - where a police officer died. He also left behind a wife and child. RFK Jr returned to publicly spreading antivax lies within days. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

/4 But it’s perfectly reasonable to point out that the people who will wave the bloody shirt over this — the people who support Charlie Kirk — are evil hypocrites who endorse and excuse violence every day. Refraining from celebrating doesn’t mean tolerating bullshit. bsky.app/profile/thre...

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.

"Harvard can't use race as a factor in admissions, but ICE can use race as a factor in detentions" is a retrenchment essentially to a pre-Civil War understanding of the Constitution. It's vanishingly few steps removed from "Latinos have no rights which the white man is bound to respect."

The most effective way to reduce homelessness is to give people homes. I'm not sure why we pretend that this is so complicated. You end pantslessness by giving people pants.👖 You can't end pantslessness by throwing away someone's shirt too. That doesn't make sense.

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!

They're openly calling to lock up every trans person by force. We need every ally to speak out forcefully against this because trans folks cannot do this on our own.

Google truly is getting dumber
