One more reason not to shop at Target!

The petunias are officially tougher than I am. I just put a winter coat on to go water them.

Air traffic controllers are resigning due to the stress inflicted by the government shutdown, a union president warned

Not sure if these are the Page One headlines WH was going for. @wsj.com

What would happen if the New York Times published a guest essay with the headline "Did People of Color Ruin the Workplace?" Or how about "Did the Civil Rights Movement Ruin the Workplace?" Would that also be "just asking questions" and "civil debate?" If not, why is this different?

"what's going to get us out of it?" asks a sitting Republican senator

But without the collective buying power of a marketplace.

I held this post up to the light.

the fury i feel is indescribable.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

I was scared for a minute, but I think this is the right read.

this is why ending the filibuster is good

First election I ever voted in. What a rude awakening.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists. They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver. apnews.com/article/trum...

Wisconsin State Senator confirms SNAP recipients in the state have received their November benefits.

Hard to think of anything in media that regularly brings me as much pure joy anymore as the headline in The New York Times' Trilobites section.

NOTHING WILL STOP US FROM STARVING CHILDREN

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...

Horrifying account of conditions at Broadview:

Wonder why Republicans don’t talk about red state farmers reliant on SNAP benefits

Richest nation in human history

Hundreds of thousands of people, dead because of a decision made by the world's richest man

Actually. Do you take requests

Totally normal

Something deeply fucked up when you can blindly break basic state functions and condemn millions to death and then people make you the richest man in the world instead of a pariah

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

NEW: Foreign food safety inspections have hit a historic low after Trump staffing cuts. The dramatic shift in oversight comes as the U.S. has never been more reliant on foreign food. “It’s only a matter of time before people die,” one expert said.

Good thread, and I will add that men DO NOT LIKE IT when women say "hey, you fucked up," and to the extent that women tend to soften the blow with indirectness, it's because men feel like their honor is insulted if they have to take feedback from women.

The NYTimes Trump Tracker looks, as a lot of newsroundups do, like a 2011 satire of a future "President Donald Trump Administration."

Sean Dunn, aka DC Sandwich Guy, speaks outside court after his not guilty verdict: “I am so happy that justice prevails in spite of everything…. “That night I believe I was protecting the rights of immigrants… Every life matters, no matter where you came from, no matter how you got here…”

“Use of force shocks the conscience”

The decision barring transgender people from changing their gender markers will cause "irreparable harm," advocates say.

Your cat when you're choking to death in your apartment

Glad the verdict was not guilty. What a waste of resources this prosecution was.

Trump is having the government take active stakes in the commanding heights of the economy. Zohran Mamdani is proposing free buses, universal child care, and higher taxes for billionaires. Which one of these is the socialist again?

Yes, we are extremely powerful. Do not mess with us.

BREAKING: A federal judge has ordered the government to pay out all the SNAP benefits it normally would this month, despite the ongoing shutdown.

Pretty on the nose that a room full of Republican health experts didn't know what to do during the most common medical emergency regular people deal with.

This one's got a lot of meme potential

This is featured on the official White House website.

With temperatures expected to swing much colder over the weekend and early next week across much of US, including the potential for below-freezing temperatures in many locations, remember to prepare and protect the 4 P's: People, Pets, Pipes, and Plants. weather.gov/safety

New: Conde Nast fired four employees who were among a group that confronted the company's head of human resources on Wednesday over the decision to fold Teen Vogue into Vogue/recent cuts. Employees who were fired included journalists from the New Yorker, Wired, and Bon Appétit.

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

"Hey, man, what message should we push today as we deliberately deny millions of Americans their food benefits?"

Didn't want to remind people that he has no actual qualifications to provide medical advice or aid.
