What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible. Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

The Trump admin says it won’t tap into its $6 billion contingency fund to cover food stamp benefits if the shutdown continues, according to an agency memo That means roughly 42 mil Americans will not receive critical food assistance from SNAP in November

so cool how everyone saw this coming, but the people in charge remained undeterred

Hey @massgovernor.bsky.social quit embarrassing us. The fact you’re not conducting daily press conferences condemning what ICE is doing is weak. This isn’t politics as usual. Maybe learn a thing or two from @govpritzker.illinois.gov. If the moment is too big for you, step aside.

A government run by content creators. The guy with the most important job has the worst case of posters madness and that’s the least of his issues. Fuck man what the goddamn fuck.

Was discharged from the hospital yesterday. I’m continuing my IV antibiotics at home where I am cozy maxing

I’m 43. Moisturizer and not being a hating ass bitch goes a long ways

I recently was able to upgrade my hearing aids. Unlike my previous Bluetooth hearing aids my new pair will actually connect to my laptop! Man what a game changer

Another violent attack by an ICE officer on a civilian at 26 Federal Plaza—this time on a journalist, who had to be carried out on stretcher. Another attack on the First Amendment, our neighbors, and our democracy.

@massgovernor.bsky.social quit embarrassing us for fucks sake. Follow this lead and start calling out the Orange fungus.

WELCOME TO THE POSTSEASON, MASA.

New hospitalist PA on my floor today. He’s from the PNW, from Portland originally but worked as a PA in Seattle. We had a great chat this morning. Seems like a dude I would hang out with outside of the hospital. Justin still has a lot to learn because he said, “I like it here. Boston seems laidback”

Trump is ordering the military to use “full force” against an American city, while the Supreme Court declares him the Sun King and Congress hides under a pile of coats. The checks and balances only work when the institutions aren’t run by utter cowards and the complicit

Well don't I feel stupid

Also, if your city isn't on this list yet and you run a theatre or event space there, let us know and we'll let you run it for free. Email [email protected] and we'll get you fixed up. Again, this is real. Thank you.

Folks, some incredible news: A couple of weeks ago, a national theatre chain axed our release of Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile because it mentioned Donald Trump. Now, because of you, Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile will now run on over 25 screens throughout the world. theonion.com/badpedophile

A friend of mine in the cystic fibrosis community who’s had a double lung transplant was admitted recently for severe dehydration. His creatine was at 4.7 (normal range for adult males is 55-96). He just texted me that his ins. denied his 3 day inpatient stay because it wasn’t “medically necessary”

Over 30 years ago, the group 2 Live Crew successfully challenged government attempts to censor their music for obscenity. Censorship is unconstitutional — and the government doesn't get to decide what lyrics musicians use or what jokes comedians tell on TV.

“I thought the cat was doing a 9/11” a wicked tired @nogodsnogirlbosses.bsky.social after a long day at work

Dug out some old newspapers from the Red Sox World Series wins so I can get a measurement to frame them. I noticed this headline, “Minorities less likely to trick-or-treat this Halloween, citing safety”. Some things never change. Woburn Daily Times Chronicle. Monday, October 29, 2007.

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

It is deeply embarrassing to have maga family members who legitimately believe Boston is “dangerous”. It used to be just the boomers before maga. Living in a 24/7 news cycle has broken so many brains

The man with the most technologically advanced intelligence services in the history of the world at his disposal will often say things like “I have just read a News Report…”

Firing liberals over stuff right-wingers get away with every day is truly honoring Charlie Kirk's legacy.

No he doesn't.

Yeah man they ain’t coming back. This is going to be one of the biggest foreign policy blunders of my lifetime, and it’s entirely possible that some guy at ICE ordered it not having any clue what he was doing. This is why we used to leave foreign affairs to sensitive nerds.

The amount of white people, especially christians, hiding behind “words are not violence” is bonkers. I left the church 8 years ago but I seem to remember the Bible talking about the tongue as a “fire”. The whitewashing of Christian nationalism is unsurprising.

1. Trump threatened every hospital that provides gender affirming care to transgender youth. Many complied and shut down their programs. Boston Children's Hospital didn't. They fought back and kept providing care. And now, they just beat Trump in court. Subscribe to support our journalism.

lol come the fuck on, really?!?!? sorry for just throwing government sponsored mass murder out there like a restaurant recommendation…big ol whoopsie-doodle on my part

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Y'know that Guardian article which cited an anonymous friend of Tyler Robinson claiming he was the only "leftist" in his family? It just got updated after the "verified source" decided he couldn't remember his "relationship" with the accused shooter well enough to be quoted

Politics have no place in Football so it was unacceptable for Colin Kaepernick to peacefully take a knee to protest systemic racism, but the NFL proudly held a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk because we must honor a man who denied systemic racism even exists. This is America.

It's not "celebrating his death" to acknowledge Charlie Kirk had every opportunity to choose to become a different kind of person with a different kind of legacy & that he rejected those chances right up until the moment when he didn't have the chance to choose anything ever again; it's just true.

i do think there's something to be said for how American Christianity so easily reduces itself to the conservative culture war and nothing else

UMass Boston Hampton University Bethune-Cookman University Alabama State University Virginia State University Southern University and A&M College Spelman College Georgia State University A middle school A high school All of them had active shooter threats today. Students can’t live like this.

LASD recently decided a hand grenade was inert and it exploded 3 cops when they cut into it so idk if cops is who anyone should be trusting to protect their mortal lives from right wing political violence idk

It’s funny seeing all the right wing talking heads try and condemn violence, only to be reposted with screenshots of their own calls to violence. Your ethos means nothing if your praxis contradicts it.

More extraordinary still is the sanitising of Kirk's politics. Kirk was - and this is just a straightforwardly factual statement - a far right activist. And here's a former British Prime Minister not merely mourning his death or condemning his murder but actively *praising* his politics.
