Aloka the peace dog appears to be recovering well from surgery. #theresthat

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

The trailer for Riz Ahmed's Hamlet is out, and, bafflingly, everyone is just being normal and going about their day.

Victor Jones. I will not be taking questions at this time. open.spotify.com/artist/3qWUr...

She sounds like a real pain in the ass.

Brad? Who the hell is Brad? -Me when scrolling past The Archers episode synopsis today. I've been away *too long*. #ThereWillSometimesBeAnEngland #Sigh

In memory of Alice Wong, the 10 Principles of Disability Justice. May she rest in power sinsinvalid.org/10-principle...

Democrats: *perform incredibly well in midterm elections* Democrats: “Ah. Well. Nevertheless,”

At least it didn't say 'not all LLMs.'

Stewart Lee is over here writing throwaway descriptions like "Weetabix-haired news-badger Andrew Neil'. Join me at The Nerve.

I’m seeing some confusion from Americans on what “President of Ireland” entails, so let me clarify: Catherine Connolly not only has supreme executive authority over the nation of Ireland, but also the entire Irish Diaspora now waits for her signal to start the Fenian Revolution.

The senior poodle mix I’m fostering has–as a result of being a mostly blind stray–developed the habit of rearing back on his butt and blindly panic biting when at all frightened which is always. Totally stealing that move.

I just saw a color option called Cinder Melange and flashed back HARD to the Tweeds catalogue ca. 1988. I was unaware. until today there was such a thing as an Ecstasy flashback.

Dayum, professor and economist Jeffrey Sachs minces no words!

Remember a few years ago (could be 3, could be 10) when the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to persons for reasons synopsized as: the universe is not locally real? I know there is scientific fact there before there is knee-knocking resonance, but boy that phrase turns up in my thoughts regularly.

I'm not gonna hate on yalls movie. If you like it, I love it. But you will never convince me that Leo DiCaprio shouting while wearing a tatty bathrobe is the best movie of the year when Ryan Coogler was literally summoning the ancestors a few months ago.

Get. Off. Twitter.

Every single thing, EVERY SINGLE THING, that RFK has done was predictable and predicted. He is doing what every other fascist eugenicist has done before him. The disability community has been warning about this for YEARS. It is not in any way shape or form mysterious and unknowable.

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

I don’t think there be so many podcasts if sit-down comedy were a thing. #Dressedforthejobiwant

It’s genuinely well-produced and engaging as reality shows go

Liberté. Egalité. Beyoncé.

Hopefully the BBC will stop showing any sort of art altogether, in case it has the wrong ideas in it.

Y’all.

Which queens? #KennedyCenter

If you're a New Yorker who follows me—here's my ask of you: 1. Vote @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for Mayor by Ranking him #1 2. Do Not Rank Cuomo for any reason whatsoever 3. Tell everyone you know to do steps 1 and 2 above Election day is June 24. Early voting on June 14. Spread the word! Let's go!

Billie Piper and Christopher Eccleston could do the funniest thing right now. #Unleashed20 #Wales #BBC3

The most important takeaway from last night’s Good Night and Good Luck? It’s time for a Slings and Arrows rewatch

It absolutely is, and the sooner y'all admit that the sooner we can all move on.

AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

Anyone know if the RSC has announced casting for their upcoming Fat Ham?

Part of my frustration with everything is we read all these books in high school. The Newspeak, to name one of millions of current assaults on the senses, is infuriating.

Can’t stop thinking about the Macbeth scene in the David Tennant episode of The Assembly. Shakespeare is for everyone all the time. I got goosebumps. So deeply wonderful.

The icing on the Lux cake? British actors doing American accents—one of my most favorite things. #DoctorWho

Spiraling and being despicable. #CopingStrategySuggestion

me to the united states: this could be us but you playin’

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Unless you're using Google maps in London.

Please stop saying “anti woke” when the good old fashioned “unapologetic racist” will do.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

It's a shitty world. The only way to instantly find a pretty world is through music and art. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoN6...

Something you can do to stand against RFK jr’s attempt to make us all sicker is wear a mask when you share air with others. Resist mask bans. People who cannot afford to get sick have a right to exist in public. Masking will protect your health from him too.

Musk's censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by about 95% since he bought it. So we moved over to blue sky. Help us build another great following right here where the skies are clear and the water is fine ;-) Please do Follow Retweet & repeat

FYI, if you ever come across a nazi march, slash all the tires on their U-haul first

What kind of supreme restraint and personal dignity is stopping those Innies from grabbing marshmallows out of the fire mid-burn? I'd have tried it once Milchick left.
