@sulliview.bsky.social Hi Margaret, Hoping to chat for a story I'm working on. Got a sec? [email protected]

As someone who grew up on (white) teen movies, I was struck by how much that Patel scene looked like something straight out of a spec script in the 1980s. The racialized minority over performing nationalism as white frat boys clearly broadcast to everyone but him that he is not really one of them.

🚨France, Germany, Italy, & the U.S. have escalated attacks on UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, demanding her resignation over remarks she did not make. Here’s everything you need to know: 1. U.S. Amb. Mike Waltz & the leading Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee accused...

YouTube has removed the channel of pro-Palestinian political commentator Guy Christensen, a U.S.-based activist known for short videos discussing the U.S.-backed Israeli genocide in Gaza. He had 50K+ subscribers and tells Drop Site he avoided discussing Hamas to prevent this outcome.

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.

This is the second time in three months a DHS agent called a US citizen a "bitch" as he shot her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...

As a reminder, here are texts Charles Exum wrote bragging abt shooting Marimar Martinez in Chicago on 10/4. Exum yelled "Do something bitch" as he shot, first through windshield, then side window. ALSO a Greg Bovino deployment. ALSO a weapons instructor. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

just had a real heart to heart with chatgpt

is it maybe due to it being gross?

i feel like if we'd just called it the u.s. army instead of the "union army" we might have avoided a lot of recent trouble

AI: If you'd like I can do the exact thing you've already asked me to do three times. Do you want me to build that list now? Me: Yes, please, and destroy the world while you're at it

deep breaths, andrew

bluesky take heed

I was really excited to get this from thrift books… until I opened it

Count me one those parents of a trans child who is furious with the complete lack of moral courage in a large chunk of the Democratic Party.

Trinidad and Tobago defense minister: “The strike took place in international waters, so the government … has no jurisdiction to investigate.”This is false. What he’s really saying is sovereignty and citizens’ lives are worth less than maintaining deals with Trump. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/16/w...

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Just published a big piece about insurance, climate collapse, and how McKinsey turned a system based on mutal aid into another way to pick our pockets. The result is a zombie industry that is doomed to fail & take down the economy along with it. In @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/article/1997...

no idea what this guy's ranting about (sometimes clicking is just too much effort) but the title gave me a chuckle

can @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social go a day without showing his ass? this guy has been performing sagacity so hard he's forgotten how to think. take a little break, pal, we'll save your seat

Rep. Ronny Jackson calls to forcefully mass institutionalize trans people and calls them a cancer. www.newsmax.com/newsmax-tv/r...

At this point, if you’re a journalist at the Washington Post who *hasn’t* been forced out by the new idiots in charge, you should probably take a hard look at your work to see what you’re doing wrong

“You need to run for president”- Joe Rogan anoints new progressive superstar. My interview with @jamestalarico.bsky.social in @guardian www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

My interview with author @tim-weiner.bsky.social is doing numbers on @theguardian.com! Can we make it to three?! www.theguardian.com/books/2025/j...

I wrote a My Favorite Murder spec script

I think Epstein is to MAGA what Gaza was to the Harris campaign, i.e. unmistakable evidence of complete moral bankruptcy.

Legacy of Ashes author @tim-weiner.bsky.social has never been a big defender of the CIA. But in a recent interview about his new book, The Mission, he expressed genuine horror at Trump’s anti-Langley revenge crusade. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/j...

As a journalist myself, I think writers deserve more credit for their work. Ben Ryan (oddly a freelance health reporter 🤔) takes the lead, with Nicholas Fandos and Dana Rubinstein. Hit piece or objective reporting, they own this

when you can't stop thinking about him

I sure wonder what ron galotti is up to

Thread: 30 years ago, I got the greatest scoop of my career—the 1st @foofighters interview...E V E R. (I think?) I had an in. I knew Dave in high school. I shot & designed the album cover for Dain Bramage (& am now married to the woman whose hands are in that photo fwiw)

We should all be disgusted by the flood of anti-Muslim remarks spewed in the aftermath of Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the NYC mayoral primary — some blatant, others latent. Shame on the members of Congress who have engaged in such bigotry and anyone who doesn’t challenge it.

This is cold-blooded murder. Every supporter of Israel needs to accept reality, denounce this evil, and take personal responsibility for ending it. archive.is/rHhMU

Former @sierraclub.org honcho Carl Pope tells us what he "got wrong" about climate change (methane is bad, actually) but never mentions most US methane comes from beef and dairy production. Earnestly hoping we all survive to read his next mea culpa in 2045. archive.is/kzB2B

We’re all going to pretend Sinners doesn’t totally fall apart after an hour ten?
