re: generative AI I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used. And now, you can use it, too.

The President—who uses antisemitic slurs—is building concentration camps and an enormous secret police force. Ya know, maybe this is just because I’m Jewish, but I wish the political opposition and the media made a bigger deal about it!

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

What is incredible is that Dems can send me four text messages a day asking for money but can't send those messages explaining what's going on in Congress or why this or that bill is important to follow. I got exactly zero texts explaining why the BBB was bad but as soon as it passed begging for $$$

thinking of all my friends trapped in the belly of the machine that is america today, please stay alive and keep fighting

Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true. Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that. It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

BREAKING: A state court has again blocked enforcement of Missouri's abortion bans and certain restrictions targeting providers. This clears the way for providers to resume offering procedural abortion care in the state. We won't stop until everyone has access to the reproductive care they need.

Fun little friendly fire for @dandyliondreamer.bsky.social !!! #Artfight2025 | #Vartist | #DigitalArt

the ray of hope you need to hear:

Abrego is the *only* prisoner ever released from CECOT, so this is the sole account we have of the horrifying conditions in the prison in El Salvador where Trump has sent over 260 people from the US.

There is not a single congressional district in the U.S. where more than 15% of voters support cuts to Medicaid.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was tortured at CECOT. He was subjected to severe beatings, severe sleep deprivation, inadequate nutrition, and psychological torture; forced to kneel from approximately 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM; and threatened with transfer to the cells with gang members who would "tear" him apart.

Dear Science Journalists, Please mention when your write-ups covers work that was funded by federal agencies that are now being dismantled, defunded, and censored. The public needs to know what is being lost, and if you don't tell them in the context of Cool New Science, who will?

I WANT EVERYONE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A HOME I WANT EVERYONE TO BE ABLE TO EAT I WANT EVERYONE TO BE ABLE TO GO TO THE DOCTOR WITHOUT GOING INTO DEBT I WANT KIDS TO HAVE SCHOOL LUNCHES I WANT THOSE OF US WITH DISABILITIES TO BE ABLE TO FUNCTION IN SOCIETY WITHOUT HAVING TO BREAK OURSELVES

I WANT to pay for community services to PROTECT AND SERVE THE COMMUNITY I DON'T want to pay for militarizing police who can't deescalate and only want a reason to kill someone

I WANT to pay for education. I DON'T want to pay for education on the bible I WANT to pay for better infrastructure I DON'T want to pay the president to golf and congress to be on break 90% of the time instead of fighting for us

"Who is going to pay for that!?!" listen, I WANT my tax dollars to be spent helping others too! not just me! I want to pay for universal basic income I WANT to pay for universal health care I WANT to pay for what HUMANS need to LIVE. I DON'T want to pay for war, to billionaires, or corporations

They gutted NOAA — is that because the agency “failed to tell the story” about how predicting hurricanes is good? The people destroying these agencies are deranged conspiracists allergic to basic facts and expertise. *This* is the important thing to stress when describing and responding to it.

It is difficult to describe just how disastrous it would be if just-released NOAA budget proposal (or even large portions) were to be enacted: It would involve a wholesale dismantling (decimation, really) of entities relevant to weather, climate, & ocean research & prediction.

Seriously man nothing just immediately makes me sever ties with someone and their work like using genAI, even in a a small way. Like actually fuck off with that shit.

Revoking an artist's visa for their speech, no matter how controversial, doesn't make us safe. The government should not be policing the artistic or political expression of citizens, visitors, or anyone else.

Fascinating how everyone pretending Mamdani said “globalize the intifada” ignores the fact that the First Intifada was primarily peaceful protests and the Second Intifada started as peaceful protests until Israeli soldiers killed over 100 Palestinian protestors.

Ending Medicaid to build concentration camps

if young voters turned out like they did for Zohran Mamdani for every race, the Democratic Party would never lose an election again so naturally, establishment Dems are…smearing him and refusing to endorse?

Our client, Zaya Perysian, took President Trump to court to challenge his executive order that denies trans, intersex, and non-binary people accurate passports. No matter what, we'll keep fighting until this executive order is gone for good.

This is a huge win and it’s also a direct result of the grassroots effort. If you've made noise about this over the past few days and weeks, you have a lot to be proud of.

Took my kitty to the vet and shes gonna be needing a Dental Procedure and the estimate is about $700 to $1000 We can do a payment plan but I'm gonna be opening commissions way more often now to cover these costs 💔 my poor little baby #dandyrambles

hey, this is fucking unconscionable. these are human beings, and every single us resident should be furious that the government is defunding medicaid to allocate more money to the kidnappers stealing our community members and making it unsafe for friends in other countries to visit us.

Stop using generative AI. There is no legitimate use of generative AI. There is no “I hate AI but this is ok”. Not everyone is using it. We do not have to “get used to it or be left behind.” Just don’t. Just stop. Delete the app. Close your account. Save some money. Take the first step. #noai

I can't tell if it's because I'm too NYC focused but does it feel like the news cycle spent more time crashing out on the fact that NYC picked a brown Muslim dude as is primary candidate then it did on a right wing extremist who shot 2 Minnesota legislators killing one, her husband and dog?

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Viktor Orban banned pride events in Hungary, the people took it as a challenge and just had the largest pride march in their country's history.

When our plaintiff Jim Obergefell lost his husband John, he simply wanted to be listed as his spouse on John’s death certificate. Ten years ago today, Jim won at the Supreme Court in our monumental case, Obergefell v. Hodges, that brought marriage equality for same-sex couples to all 50 states.
