Stop acting like being neurodivergent is a fucking death sentence. It isn't even necessarily a guarantee of severe health care burden on a family. Also, boost accessibility everywhere, and this issue becomes much more of a moot point.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

ICE: literally here to kidnap little girls. That’s all you need, just keep spreading that message.

“I absolutely think I’m qualified for the job. Because at the end of the day, what really makes anybody qualified for any job?” is maybe a perfect Trump administration quote.

Most of these are increasing by about 20%. Tell me your service is unprofitable without telling me it’s unprofitable. And honestly I wonder if these were lowered from the original intended price hike due to the backlash.

BREAKING — Notices for the Disney+ price increase went out at noon ET today, confirming my scoop from last night. Details: www.vulture.com/article/disn...

There was a post someone said years ago where they were like "every time I wanna study something I find interesting it turns out it goes back to anti-Blackness. "Why do cartoon characters have white gloves?" "Where did OK's panhandle come from?" "How come universal health care failed in the 60s?"

Most of it is what others have said; anti-incumbency + COVID economic effects. Something specific though is that the child tax credit and basic income - which made a huge difference to those in poverty - ended under Biden. Impoverished ppl had more aid under Trump I, even if Democrats also did that.

An all-time great album. Suck it, haters.

Yup, even Animaniacs. Sorry, Millennials!

Certain kinds of progressive Christians are really going to need to get okay with the fact that they still carry Christian biases and bigotries into common spaces and many of us have no reason to trust them.

Pedocon theory strikes again.

White racism is expensive when measured in dollar amounts. But to white people, feeling superior to Black people and subjugating them systemically is priceless.

I left one of those whole foods fruit tarts out overnight by accident. Is it still safe to eat?

Kamala Harris saying “I endorse Zohran Mamdani” isn’t a magic spell. It doesn’t cause mystical forces to come into alignment. It’s just a polite & appropriate thing for a party leader to do for her parties nominee for a significant office. She did that. Good for her.

I believe this is called “moving the goalposts.” It’s not enough that she publicly endorsed him, she apparently has to do handstands and shoot off fireworks for the guy. I also don’t get why some people think that a formal endorsement has magical powers.

I was told on here she said the literal exact opposite and it‘s reached the point where if you all said Kamala thought water was wet, I’d double check the records.

...apparently he tweeted about it several days ago. it seems weird that The Economist purposely hid his name from readers. unless of course they knew that readers might already be aware of Jəsse's long history of bias on this issue...

so the Economist article isn't attributed an author. but someone in the replies of this 🧵 tipped me off that it was Jəsse Singal. & it turns out that it was, which in retrospect isn't surprising (as he's one of the ppl who would never answer this question):

Kamala Harris on Mamdani: Look, as far as I'm concerned, he's the democratic nominee and he should be supported.

Trump’s inability to pronounce “acetaminophen” raises new questions about Joe Biden’s mental state.

Honestly. Just the weakest of diaper babies

the new york times doesn’t want to get pulled into any of tylenol’s defamation lawsuits

Guess what, bitch.

DISNEY EXEC 1: We lost so many subscribers this past week, it's horrible. What can we possibly do to win them back? DISNEY EXEC 2: Make subscription more expensive. DISNEY EXEC 1: Brilliant.

Call me old fashioned, but aren’t both parts of this relationship currently, uh, married to other people?

Noem and Lewandowski have been reportedly together for at least six years while all the time married to their respective apparently estranged spouses.

everyone be quiet, this rapist has reproductive health advice for us

"The Regime will find you if you put your name on a list" motherfucker they couldn't even sack Jimmy Kimmel

All the super straight, Christian, MAGA warriors broke down Grindr, the gay dating/sex app, yet again. The last time it broke down...the RNC in Wisconsin.

Trump is consolidating power mainly in areas where it's relatively easier for him to do so. When he faces real resistance, it's a different story. Stop acting like he's invincible.

I saw someone say that Fascism is the natural ally to Capitalists, and that is absolutely untrue - you want people to be free and comfortable enough to Buy Your Stuff! Stuff like vacations and media! A healthy middle class supports a Capitalist economy! What we have now is not in fact sustainable!

Disney: over the last 72 hours we were shocked to discover that censorship isn’t cool.

Apparently we need to go over this again.

All the Christians calling this guy an antisemite think “Yamim Noraim” is some new brand of hummus.

This may seem wild but it was in fact inevitable. Conspiratorial people animated by grievance and grift invariably land on one of the oldest and most lucrative conspiratorial grifts of all. You can set your clock by it.

Over a long enough timeframe, the chances that a serial grifter will eventually turn to antisemitism asymptotically approach 100%.

The way I know the Daily Show doesn’t meet the moment for today’s fascists is the GOP doesn’t care that they’re hypocrites. Hypocrisy is a feature not a bug, because they are powerful and will dominate you by their divine right. This liberal gotcha comedy is so tired.

"Politicians are all the same" is by far the most common political belief among Americans and Democrats should spend way more time convincing those people "no, they're not" than trying to position themselves as representing a middle that doesn't exist.

I will never celebrate a murder, least of all of a young father. But I do not consent to deify a moderately popular podcaster who said Black women "do not have the brain processing power" of white men, who said "Jewish dollars" fund "cultural Marxism," into a great man of history. I dissent.

Please be respectful

As an employee of Software Etc from 1995-1997, who had a couple of buddies who worked at WIRED, and who blogged at WIRED.com for a second, it gives me great pleasure to report that the magazine is currently demolishing.
