Take the bosses’ snacks, then form a union anyway.

Very thorough reporting here from @writingthings.bsky.social at @indyweek.bsky.social Also a good example of how processes can be tilted in any political environment: Durham is one of the bluest municipalities in NC, but an overly deferential tax appeals board gifted millions to local megacorps

Delighted to share some good news 🧪 “This hugely encouraging news shows the life-saving impact of the HPV vaccine, and it’s incredibly exciting to be able to say to this whole generation: cervical cancer shouldn’t be a risk for you,” says Caroline Temmink www.newscientist.com/article/2530...

it would be funny if OUR treaty of Versailles lead to the destruction of a fascist political party instead of its creation I want that for us

BREAKING: Georgia lawmakers have taken redistricting off the table as a result of public pressure. The state will no longer consider a new, racist map that would have diluted Black voting power. This victory makes it loud and clear: Our demands are working.

Everyone shut up I finally got a video of Jyn doing her cartoon snoring thing

We know today's @newsobserver.com front page, with this amazing Robert Willett photo, sold out very quickly. We will be reprinting the "Perfect Storm!" front page again in our special Stanley Cup commemorative section on Friday.

this is a catastrophe and he will do harm, and only harm, to those living with disabilities

The more you rely on AI the less you remember to even TRY to use your critical faculties.

none of this is true and the place where this is going is potentially very awful

The "we announced a fake peace treaty because it was the head of state's birthday" thing is pure late Roman empire.

He has dyed the reflecting pool green in honor of Islam per Iran's demands.

There is a viral Instagram post claiming the Knicks have turned down the invitation to visit the White House, sourced to nothing, apparently just a photo with some text written on it. It’s been reposted 10,000 times. Can’t find any indication it’s true. We have got to stop doing this.

Or buy it local from your friendly indie bookstore @quailridgebooks.bsky.social just a couple doors down from vivace, where the cup is currently hanging out for lunch.

Saw a rumor about Torts going to Toronto and I have no idea if that's true but it would absolutely be the funniest outcome.

What pisses me off about videos like this is inevitably, my mom will see it and call me all upset. Then I have to explain to her that just because a food isn't nutritious doesn't mean it's actively harmful. And I take psychological damage because I have an English degree but she was PRE MED.

Can’t believe they hid this secret for years by putting it on every bag

Gavin Newsom, interesting use case. You can go on Steve Bannon’s podcast all you want, do your little concession parade, reluctantly toss people who don’t look like you to the wolves. But they will still come after you. No matter who you threw under the bus first, you’ll be right there with them.

Boss: ok team any updates for today? Me: *deep inhale* The hartford whalers moved to North carolina in 1997....

Hats off to Dr. Eric Tulsky, College of Chemistry Ph.D. alum, for winning the Stanley Cup last night! 🎓🏆 Once a Bear, always a Bear... and now a champion. We couldn't be prouder. Congratulations! 💙💛 📸: Sportsnet #berkeleychemistry #ucberkeley #cocalum #stanleycup

Jordan Staal with six goals from 2.2 ixG in the final round alone. What a time for a heater.

Champ

Also hearing the commentators talk about how bad the greensboro years were when we were there as kids is wild. Because I know the attendance was low but also those are some of our favorite memories as a family.

Mitch Marner was the only Knight on the ice for all three goals against. All game charts: hockeyviz.com/game/2025030...

I might retroactively have to make a scarf for this season tracking the Ws, Ls, and OTs.

Also give Bussi all the money. All of it. What a gem. What an absolute star. Protect him at all costs.

Six shifts for the Canes fourth line in the third. They took a penalty (which was killed by the first line, basically) and still Rod didn't shorten his bench.

I promise I'll stop canes posting soon but I'm just so happy and proud of them. We went through some absolute garbage years and here we are.

So I reckon I’m Bluesky’s first Stanley Cup Champion? #SoundTheSiren

To all those who've been up celebrating the Canes – you’re officially excused from your duties this morning.

Final cover now revealed

2026 is unhinged 😂

16-3 in the playoffs. The Carolina Hurricanes absolutely obliterated every lazy, stupid narrative about what they needed to become in order to win it all.

Somewhere, PK Subban is sad, and I think that’s beautiful #SoundTheSiren

It’s Staal good, baby baby

LET'S FREAKING GOOOOOOOOO

Paul Krugman: "We surpassed Gilded Age levels of income and wealth inequality decades ago. We’re now in an era of oligarchy in which the power of great wealth and the abuse of that power by a tiny elite eclipse anything we saw in the late 19th and early 20th century" Chat, is that good?

Guess the Canes missed the N&O’s press deadline?
