I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents. I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

Nothing will ever be more satisfying than watching democracy make rich people cry.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Someone did a mad quote skeet of this because they didn't realize it's a joke post by a satire account with a funny username.

This is just funny. It's great to see Bloomberg get pantsed. www.thecity.nyc/2025/11/06/c...

Well that's it fellas. They named a team after one of my favorite ducks. I'm in. About the only way this gets better is if there's a team named after Mergansers. And it gets a suitably kickass logo.

Yeah this sucks. But at the same time, I was interviewed by Paul Solman last month for the PBS Newshour on a story regarding the dubious nature of the BLS unemployment data. You only have to do paid work 1 hour per month to be considered "fully employed" to BLS. Tell me how that's a rational metric

(inventing the bloody mary) yeah sure, whatever. let's go with that

Dear Tubi: As far as closed-captioning goes, allow me to quote a giddy John Oliver: “Excellent, no notes!”

@yyachung.bsky.social your IPS applicant mentors are absolutely Killin' it this week.

Man, I love that you can still read (and respond to) 20-year-old posts in hobbyist forums that are active to this day. Compare that to the “knowledge bases” that tech companies cultivate to replace actual tech support, but then break every time they migrate to a new server architecture.

My favorite comment on the FT story

Me: riding my ebike, jamming out to French music French musician: 🎵Je ne suis fromage!!!!🎵 Me: "Yeah man, hell yeah."

A family is just a thing to own for these parasites, not a social unit. Not surprising considering these dudes are all friendless losers incapable of understanding social organizations.

Every little bit helps in the War On Cars

The idea that emissions can be offset through projects that claim to avoid releases or to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is fatally flawed. #auspol #ClimateChange

These photos are 100 years apart. Bikes are so awesome.

I’m selling my Riese & Muller Cruiser 2 Mixte Vario. It’s a lovely bike, I’m just not using it. Full specs in pics below. It’s 2 years old and done 2600 miles. Just been serviced. Tyneside. Niche so please share! www.facebook.com/share/1AGbtx... If you’re not on FB, can share more via DM.

Watch RFK JR run to get his car to throw this guy in the trunk

New York to Chicago by train: 1905: Pennsylvania Railroad, 18 hours 2025: Amtrak, 19.5 hours

Counterpoint: making cops look like absolute 19th century dorks is a good thing, actually.

How do you tariff a human being? Oh wait. Texas conservative capitalist oligarchs know. Cost of a prime field hand (18-30 year-old enslaved man) in 1850 = $ 1,200 ($51,343.98 in 2025 dollars). http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/yps01 http://www.measuringworth.com/slavery.php

Finally a big city mayor raised on “YOU CAN’T CUT BACK ON FUNDING! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!”

We are seen

I went a third of a century accepting, on the testimony of a cartoon, that coyotes chase roadrunners before I ever saw the real thing.

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

FYI this is what you do when your business is great and you are very liquid and creditworthy

This feels straight out of a dystopian novel. I think I read one like this. Something about people having barcodes on their bodies and the political parties being named after the mega corp that owns them.

I'm gonna keep quoting myself until this crime against civilization starts getting serious notice.

Can we set aside that crisis of young men being driven to the Right? From NBC’s exit polling for young men 18-29: VA: Spanberger +14 NJ: Sherrill: +10 NYC: Mamdani +40

grok, do soldiers historically remain reliable if they go hungry?

Flying Squirrel Loves It Every Time

IT'S ACTUALLY PAPER

the thing in medieval confessional manuals about being careful not to accidentally introduce your parishioners to ways of sinning they had never yet considered. like that.

Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.

This is what I’m talking about when I say these signs and locked doors are coming to a city near you.

Omg they said he’d never bond with me. I flipping LOVE him

Two years ago I interviewed a 31-year-old NY state assemblymember about a 7-year-old girl killed by an SUV driver in his district. I hung up the phone, astonished that I'd talked to a legislator who so thoughtfully articulated what actually needs to change on our streets. He'll make a great mayor

New York assemblyman Zohran Mamdani confronts Border Czar Tom Homan today in Albany 👇🏻

Reminder that this is a winning position, and people support it

fuuuuuck

There is a contest to determine who is the ultimate squirrel. I believe that I am winning. Glory to the forest

IF this is true, it's honestly one of the funniest and yet completely accurate metaphors for the current gale winds of the national party leadership lol

ICE won't allow communion to be given in detention centers because demons quail and shiver at the divine presence in the Host.

HEY IT REALLY LOOKS LIKE NOMINATING SOMEONE UNDER 100 WHO WANTS THE GOVERNMENT TO DO NICE THINGS IS REALLY POPULAR
