Some exciting news: Kodak announced two new types of film today, and, notably, said it would be directly selling the film to shops, sidestepping a complicated licensing agreement where Kodak hasn't had the right to sell its own film to stores www.404media.co/kodak-is-sel...

A federal-level Ministry of Women was established in Mexico for the first time in 2024 under President Claudia Sheinbaum, to address women’s historical subjugation, and their exclusion from the justice system, particularly in the case of indigenous women.

My GenZ daughter excitedly learning how to burn CDs, and me testing her efforts, I pulled out my ‘90s Sony Discman, cleaned out battery corrosion, and she’s working like a charm! Listening to old mix, “Apache” by The Ventures at max volume. Now moved onto Gene Vincent and Be Bob a Lula. #Resist

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

He who does not read, at 70 years will have lived only one life, his own! He who reads, will have lived 5000 years: He was there when Cain killed Abel, when Renzo married Lucia, when Leopardi admired infinity... Because “Reading is backward immortality”. -Umberto Eco writingforwellbeing.co.uk #books

I highly recommend watching this to witness, through art, when and how Christianity (and Christ) were mutated and morphed into what we experience today. I was raised on critical thinking, and I passed it on to my daughter. We watched it together this evening.

Pulled this out today to review @wired.com predictions. Published 11/1995. (I have 2 copies). I’m curious to re-read. You can read too, here: archive.org/details/wire...

David Cross folks.

OMFG. If we survive, scholars will analyze this for years. Nostalgia for a mass corp invading small towns, destroying local biz, then pulling out on many if they didn’t make bank, leaving a hollow shell. Oh, the tax breaks that citizens paid for, + shitty pay & horrid worker treatment. #walmart2025

Is it a mandate to be involved in child sex abuse to be in the GOP. It’s like one per week. Release the Epstein files.

The GOP is infatuated with El Salvador because of how the country treats women It has a no-exceptions ban on abortion - meaning if you don't have a perfect pregnancy you will be charged with murder 200 women have been incarcerated for having an obstetric emergency By @mariahinojosa.bsky.social

Kids are so much more capable than we give them credit for. They can grasp these ideas. What they need from us is the space to talk it out to process what they feel and what they understand. That’s how we help them grow into empathetic, compassionate, and loving human beings.

Big Ugly Bill — DAMAGE CONTROL New Mexico is showing the rest of the nation how it’s done: Special session starts Oct 1 to protect Medicaid, lower premiums, and keep hospitals open. While D.C. Republicans are playing games, New Mexico is fighting to save health care for every family. 1/3

My gift to the community. A wee bit of #fall #sangredecristo #colorado #mountain #forestbathing and #chill #zen to hopefully help soothe some of the existential dread.

I listened and it was one of the most chilling conversations I’ve ever heard.

#chicago #riverwalk this same time last year. Beautiful city, great people, treasured memory. Contrast with now.

The thing you want to do if you are in a wildly unpopular Democratic leadership position is praise a candidate who disgraced his office while running away from a candidate that is on fire with the public. It’s just good politics.

Trump's deal to sell TikTok won't just enrich his billionaire pal Larry Ellison. It also gives UAE investment firm MGX — a key business partner of the Trump family's crypto company — a major ownership stake and board seat at TikTok. Everything is for sale.

Internet trolls launched a campaign to overwhelm flight reservation systems, in a bid to block Indian visa holders from booking tickets, following the surprise announcement of a $100,000 fee for the U.S.' H-1B visa.

Dear soybean farmers: You voted for Trump the first time and got burned. And then you voted for him again. Look, I'm a multigenerational land owner and an ag guy. But... what did you dumb motherfuckers expect? You voted because you don't like trans ppl? When was the last time you even saw one?

A friend of mine was in custody for 6 hours after being asked if he supports Canada as the 51st state. He said no. They searched his phone and was given a 5 years suspension from entering the US and they had to cancel their family trip to Hawaii

For dog’s sake, don’t travel here!

Do NOT listen to RFKjr about anything. Listen to your personal physician. Get caught up on every vaccine you can.

THIS. I was assuming that this would eventually emerge.

And so why are people still using Amazon?! Seriously. Stop saying “I’m using it until my prime membership is done, then I’m quitting.” Quit now! Chalk it up as a loss. I quit long ago and have been able to source everything I need locally.

I feel we need to update Jung’s quote of “The greatest tragedy of the family is the unlived lives of the parents” (and I’ve also seen it as greatest burden upon a child), to “The greatest tragedy of society is the unlived lives of people.” I feel it’s why we’re all awash in this shithole timeline.

I see posts from activist elders expressing very real frustration, feeling that only those with grey hair are out protesting. Though they may be the majority, this is not true. Also same old generational whines about “where is GenZ?” Unproductive and unsustainable. 1/

Each day as I read another story like this, and given the power of the Disney boycott, I feel that we need to root out the cause of much of our hell, our enculturated consumerism. The “I NEED” ____. Do we really?

Very important to pay attention to

And… for the umpteenth time and for same reasons, move off Facebook/Insta. I find it odd that my friends have seemingly doubled down on their use. Mind boggling.

What’s even more disgusting is people actually buy this crap.

Kai Trump, Donald Trump's granddaughter, is using the White House to sell merch on social media. She posted this video to her accounts.

We keep closing in and the truth gets uglier and uglier as we realize how horrible we suspected it was is even worse than that.

An inquiry. Even as the GOP works to rig the voting through gerrymandering etc., whose to say that Republicans, who may be at their own breaking points, and have awoken from the fantasy, vote for a Democrat (or other, should that magically arise) in the general election? Maybe naive but…

Well, this is the same narrative“Q” fanatics were all over not so long ago. I think it’s quite clear that non-MAGA don’t give a rat’s ass if Clinton & other Dems (looking at you, creepy, yet dead Bill Richardson, etc) are involved. Call them out. If you’re guiltless, release everything, as promised.

I have been wondering the same myself. Thanks @jennburrill.bsky.social

Ossified, dessicated bitter wastes of space.

The U.S. military says fighter jets have intercepted Russian warplanes near Alaska for the third time in about a month and the ninth time this year.

It’s gone so quickly from ‘boat people’ to all immigrants. So quickly from ‘I don’t mind if they come here legally and pay taxes’ to ‘actually it’s anyone foreign’. We are living in the ‘first they came for’ poem. All to give the population a scapegoat so the super rich can hoard yet more wealth.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets. • Joy Reid • Don Lemon • Melissa Harris-Perry • Tiffany Cross • Jemele Hill • Marc Lamont Hill • Karen Attiah • Amber Ruffin

Major preach! And I agree 💯

In a society that profits from your self doubt, liking yourself is a rebellious act. #LifeLessons #YouGotThis
