I just keep thinking “Elon Musk just got a trillion dollars”

what's there to say, really?

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

Accurate but I made a couple quick changes

November 7th, 2000.

Doing a staycation with the kids at an indoor water park. Yesterday we all got our shots and are all achy. I also have a cold. Fuck it we ball

But coming for the poor who’ve already allocated every dime and cutting off part of that was a direct blow to the economy. The poor put 100% of what they make back into the economy. We hoard nothing. No billionaire can say that. So when you cut the poor, you cut the economy.

New — While some states have received SNAP benefits for November and USDA is supposedly pushing through all federal payments soon, that doesn’t erase the psychological terror of the last few weeks. I spoke with 20+ SNAP recipients in 16 states about preparing for a possible future with no food:

The Mayor of New York only makes $260k. I bet there are police that make more than that in NY with overtime. We need to pay elected leaders more money and stop pretending it's some sort of calling. They're managing hundreds of billions of dollars in investments and millions of people's lives.

lol back to back stories on NPR: Musk may be first trillionaire, in other news people are starving in Virginia, here’s what some overstretched school districts are doing 🥴

NEW: For decade or more, the the majority of U.S. political support for Israel has come from the right. Now there are serious signs that support may be crumbling. full story www.npr.org/2025/11/07/n...

I think MTG sees the writing on the wall and I do think we’re gonna start seeing other GOPers jump ship. Between the Tuesday sweep, these ratings, and Trump pushing hard to nuke the filibuster, idk man. It has to be freaking some of the old guard out.

DHS confirmed it has stopped automatically storing officials' text messages. Instead, officials are supposed to take a screenshot, send that to their work email, download it onto their work computer and run a text-recognition program on it. Every time. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

This city belongs to you. youtu.be/Nf4aPjPu6pk

the government is giving me $10 billion because i made a phone app that reminds you to kill yourself

making Jacob the stereotypical Bluesky user is the rudest and truest attack anyone has ever made on us

god this is so fucking weird

FWIW I wrote this. I wrote it in part as a tool to use in persuasion in my own communities. www.startribune.com/adam-raine-c...

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Welcome to Derry S1E2! Also Weapons is on HBO, can’t wait to watch

GODDAMNIT I already had a long day and NOW I HAVE TO CALL AMY KLOBUCHAR FUCK

Looks like American air travel is already fucked and getting more so, in the wake of Duffy’s 10% reduction announcement. Hold onto your butts. nasstatus.faa.gov

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

Sandwich man leaving court

the leader of the department of health literally runs away everybody else rushes to the hurt guy and the Make America Healthy Again guy says "I gotta get outta here" let a hundred gifs bloom

Rest now sister. We have the kente. I'll see you in Wakanda.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Nancy Pelosi won't seek reelection, ending her storied career in the US House.

ICE detain father in unmarked white van—drive off in his car with his toddler still in the back car seat. One agent threw volleyball into the car—it bounced hitting the toddler in head. "There's a baby in there!" people cry out. "They covered up his face! That's child abuse!" (Part 1)

lolololol WOW. They literally just put this headline out. Every day, I’m more and more grateful to work with 95% women.

lol

Real talk: if you still think that Newsom is going to be the Democratic nominee after last night, you should go get an MRI

!!!! Twin cities anyone else???

interesting tactic after losing historically in an off year election while the government is shut down and people are going hungry. also not the point but Nigeria is enormous in both population and physical size…

I've seen this go by a few times on TikTok now and I have to say, I love this idea. We need a way to convince people to keep running even if they don't win, maybe building the loss into it as a troll move is the secret.

The way all of these people convinced themselves that Mamdani is antisemitic is a subject far more worthy of media examination than any of the ‘groupthink on campuses!’ thinkpieces we’ve been subjected to

I love that Mamdani is what the right claimed Obama was: A Muslim socialist born in Africa. The right practically manifested Mamdani into existence.

lollllll that’s right you big wet crybaby

For @msnbc.com I wrote about how Tuesday's election gives Democrats the blueprint for overcoming Republican anti-trans attacks and how thus should settle all the talk about throwing trans people under the bus. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

oh my god they actually did it lmao

An Oregon woman, a U.S. citizen, was detained by ICE for approximately seven hours. Federal agents smashed her car window and arrested her after she took photos of their vehicles.

The revolution will be big titted

This morning, #ICE abducted a preschool teacher without a warrant — in front of children. I’m hosting a press conference RIGHT NOW with @durbin.senate.gov and @ramirez.house.gov. Tune in here.

Checking in on Rudy Giuliani, I see he's having an insane one
