Mamdani turned his haters into waiters at the table of success

.... what is this timeline even

What a piece of shit Newsom is. Personally destroying someone’s home for a photo op.

This trump blowing bubba thing is really hard to... swallow.

The Smithsonian announced it will reopen several of its museums tomorrow, including the National Museum of American History, the National Air and Space Museum, and the Udvar-Hazy Center in Virginia, which houses historic aircraft and space artifacts.

We’re all trying to find the guy who did this.

Your new motto should be: if it’s fine for disabled people, it’s fine for me.

Who wants to use a credit card / go to a store when you can't tell if the form of payment you brought is accepted until you try it? The best explanation here is: they know much of the American economy is more collusive than competitive, so consumers generally won't have a choice anyway.

HE'S APPEALING TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES THAT HE BE ALLOWED TO STARVE AMERICANS

How sad is it that the richest country on Earth has a government that has to be forced to feed families with hungry children? SNAP benefits shouldn’t be a courtroom battle. People shouldn’t have to beg for basic humanity. But here we are.

I saw this earlier this week but needed time to have a public conversation about it. Goddard has always been one of my favorite NASA centers. The work they do is so cool and the folks there are incredible. This truly gutted me. 😢

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

Now for your #Caturday entertainment, very smol, cute kitties. 😺

This is an amazing thread, and the template early on is 100% worth saving for regular use.

Black farmers have always gotten shafted in this country. I feel his rage 🔥🔥🔥

ICYMI live, our #TwitchCon25 Panel "Burnout Happens: What Comes Next" is up on YouTube. youtu.be/DbsPUpJeHWs Thanks to @theselenaprice.bsky.social @deejayknight.bsky.social @topaztvee.bsky.social @briggsy.blacksky.app and @zufats.com for paneling with me!

If the NIH and HHS were under any other prior President (Dem or GOP), we’d see a rapid shift of funding to leverage this. But the politicization (and gutting) of these agencies means it won’t happen—and so many people will die unnecessarily as a result.

Billions are available for a new ballroom, ICE, and bailouts. But, when it comes to Americans trying to make ends meet? Trump and the GOP are happy to let them starve. If your benefits are at risk or you're just looking to help, check out these resources.

2) The CDC division within the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) that directs the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) — a bellwether of the country’s health — lost all its planners in last weekend’s firings. www.statnews.com/2025/10/14/c...

Welp—CDC’s entire data team for its legendary national health and nutrition survey (NHANES)—our health census—has been laid off. Now we are flying blind to nutrition and chronic disease status in the U.S.—is this supposed to help us be MAHA? www.statnews.com/2025/10/14/c...

I didn't log on to be disrespected like this

The Trump regime’s tariffs and the elimination of the de minimis exemption are hindering interlibrary loans, trapping books in foreign countries. This disruption to international resource sharing hinders academic progress and limits access to information for researchers.

Winter is approaching and I'm considering purchasing a Lenny Kravitz scarf. The Chicago winter has broken the spirits of many. I want to lug around a big ol blanket and call it clothes. I am prioritizing comfort this year and that means wearing a comforter to work.

Mike Johnson: "The WIC program, the nutrition program -- women, infants, and children -- that program won't be funded. FEMA won't be funded."

Rich people have no sense of reality anymore. Fund your local libraries, for fuck’s sake.

Ezra Klein has played a fascinating role in entrenching “polarization” as the – deeply flawed – master narrative of our time: His 2020 book “Why We’re Polarized” did a lot to propagate the idea. But if you read the book carefully, Klein inadvertently provides a good case *against* this diagnosis.

I wasn't aware that the TikTok Christian Rapture stuff last week stemmed from someone who claimed to have been visited by Jesus in a Kroger parking lot. I think I'm rededicating myself to the American Revelations in Parking Lots beat.

Everything the mainstream media considers a "radical left-wing belief" is a compromise position. The actual radical beliefs are things we can't discuss because they're too far outside the Overton Window for most people to understand.

The study review that led Trump and his trained lunatic to freak out about Tylenol did, in fact, find reason for concern (and further study). It did not recommend the POTUS go on national TV to misrepresent and overreact.

“Starting October 1st, 2025, we will be imposing a 100% Tariff on any branded or patented Pharmaceutical Product, unless a Company IS BUILDING their Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Plant in America.”

the only AI i need is an earpiece i can wear at my kid's birthday party that tells me the name of the parent i've met like four times before

This isn’t freedom.

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions. Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/h...

“… just days after a gunman sprayed over 500 bullets across the CDC campus, the government fired over 150 violence and injury prevention specialists”

The We Are All DC march to protest against Trump admin’s takeover of DC is currently heading toward the White House: Via @benjalvarez1.bsky.social

Hello from Washington DC, where hundreds of people and what seems like an unreasonable amount of police are assembling for the We Are All DC March This is the first pre-planned, DC-focused protest since the occupation began. Let's see how this goes 🧵

“Violent crime rates in America’s big cities have been falling over the last two years, and at an even greater rate over the last six months. The decrease in violence in America is unprecedented.”

the story for how giuliani got hurt is super sketch but it does include “911” so i respect his commitment to the bit

Watching National Treasure for the first time and you couldn’t make this film today. Not because it’s not plausible but because the city it’s filmed in is currently occupied by the National Guard.

Much like "how to use Narcan," in an ideal world you wouldn't need to know how to clear ammo out of an AR, but in our world you might really encounter this situation, so here you go.
