The @latimes.com's @davidzahniser.bsky.social shares stories of people kicked out of Inside Safe for rules that either don't make sense or aren't applied in any way that would (no visitors, or leaving the motel for >72 hours). Lack of housing options means ppl are stuck at shelters for months.

I think about this a lot.

Another way to answer this question is to say the president has made himself illegitimate by going on a nonstop historic crime spree since the day he took office and as a coequal branch of government we can and should do more than shrug and say well he won an election so

This single tweet from an Iranian embassy puts not just the Trump admin but most US media to shame with its clear and forthright analysis of the situation. We’ve all been forced to live in a Hans Christian Andersen story for the past decade thanks to our complicit media refusing to say the obvious—

Stuff the president says is inherently newsworthy! The right response to the fatigue we all feel from hearing him is not to stop covering it, it's to hammer him and his party to explain it and not let them shrug their way out of taking responsibility for it. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/you-have-t...

I understand the impulse not to let this guy's statements dictate the news cycle but the fact that he can say shit like this and it barely causes a ripple in the media is a key to his ability to maintain power. Constantly pushing the bar of normality downwards, no pressure to take responsibility.

This is Sprout. He just turned 21, so his doggy retirement home threw him the party of the year. After getting his new ID, Sprout got his first legal pup cup, then he and his friends celebrated with cake, presents, and even a Sprout-themed calendar. 13/10 happy birthday buddy #SeniorPupSaturday

TMZ asked John Cena if he thinks WWE is ready for a transgender wrestler.

Opinion | This isn't a race for California governor; it's a game of chicken Rather than campaigning, eight Democratic hopefuls are waiting for someone to blink, as two Republican candidates take potshots at each other.

When talking to fans, this is what @reveleth.com hears: "That these women are building something special. That they're paving the way. That the risk is worth the possibilities they’re creating where there were none." www.coyotemedia.org/golden-state-storm-womens-football-concussions/

A coworker yesterday mentioned that she only found out we were currently in a war because she googled “why are gas prices getting so high”

It's indeed possible to beat bad things backed by big money

Last year Kanye West took out a Super Bowl ad to sell swastika t-shirts. This weekend he sold out two shows at SoFi Stadium. To all of those in attendance—what the fuck is wrong you. That’s a rhetorical question.

there's a cadre of white dudes on this site who spend literally all their time posting like shit and getting into fights and then complain about the unique toxicity here. I guess if that was my entire experience I would probably not enjoy it very much either, which is why I don't do that

NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA

pls for the love of God can folks read a history book www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

So many posts rooting for his death. I want him to live a good long life and watch his fortune stripped away, his name erased from everywhere he put it, his family and every “friend” denounce him, and him jailed for the rest of his existence. Death is wayyy too easy.

Trump’s “desperately needed ballroom!” is made of “protective missile resistant steel columns, beams, drone-proof roofing materials, and bullet, ballistic, and blast proof glass”. It’s a bunker.

That’s not a ballroom. It’s a bunker. And you have to ask why he’s so insistent on a bunker.

ICE has kept a disabled double amputee prisoner for over 14 months. Rodney Taylor has been denied access to his prosthetic legs. Forced to crawl across dirty floors to access food. Placed in solitary. Denied medical accommodations. They’re killing him & he needs the community to make noise!

Just so everyone knows — WGA has told Captains that what is being reported in the media regarding negotiations with the AMPTP is being reported without authorization and may not be completely accurate. A deal is not yet finalized. They will let everyone know when it is.

This is particularly enjoyable because #Apple CEO, #TimCook, has so completely kissed the ass of the orange felon since day one. www.cbsnews.com/news/apple-d...

Grassroots movements begin with talking to our neighbors! Last week our volunteers chatted to Angelenos from Sawtelle to Sun Valley about Rae’s vision for an affordable, sustainable, and safe L.A.

I would not have guessed that this is from a 2024 fantasy novel (The Tainted Cup, by Robert Jackson Bennett). What a sentence. ... I see the book won a Hugo Award. Yeah, that tracks.

Copy editorial trifecta! All three dash types. First is an em dash being used as part of a pair separating one clause from the rest of the sentence. Second, a hyphen links a prefix to a one-word noun. Finally an en dash links a prefix to a compound noun.

NEW: Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff’s net worth increased 15%—to $2.3B—in the past year, largely due to World Liberty Financial. That’s the crypto venture his family co-owns with the Trumps and a firm backed by UAE’s national security adviser. @giacomotognini.bsky.social for Forbes

800,000 people who died because of the lack of lifesaving food and medical aid were unavailable for comment.

If you were reading a history of the Gilded Age and encountered a tycoon who kept pushing insane conspiracy theories about declining white birth rates and who used his vast influence to kill off nearly a million people in Africa, you'd very easily conclude that person was a white supremacist.

For the people who missed it

I will never think of Elon Musk as anything other than a mass murderer for the USAID cuts. I’ve long felt he’s one of the most villainous people alive today, the real-life equivalent of a comically annoying and cruel supervillain

Fun fact, Stockholm syndrome is not real. During a 1973 attempted bank robbery, police were so aggressive & unreasonable the robbers repeatedly had to protect their hostages. After, rather than accept the (mostly female) hostage’s critique of police tactics, they invented a label to discredit them.

As I always do on the anniversary of his passing, I'm posting the 2013 tribute I wrote for Roger Ebert. The 11 years I wrote for @ebertvoices.bsky.social were the greatest honor of my film critic career. Miss ya, Roger. As promised, I became a newspaper man. odienator.blogspot.com/2013/04/roge...

This is absolute trash. Kids are submitting their original art for AP Studio Art classes. Claiming copyright over that work is genuinely evil.

Perfect no notes

this is neat but also you can just ask any person working at chipotle this same question to get the answer because in 2026 it's taking far longer than expected to find another job that uses her computer science degree

Numerous people are making this point, which I'm very familiar with but maybe some people don't know: car dealers are legendarily the engine of the GOP!

Americans are manipulated, abused, ripped off, injured, and taken advantage of by the auto industry complex in so many ways, large & small. Yet they just accept it so passively. It drives me crazy.

For years I've been looking for the right guest to do a pod on this. The car-sales model that is dictated by law in the US -- you must go to a dealership & suffer for hours in order to buy one -- is one of the most nakedly anti-social special interest giveaways in history. Needs to be killed dead.

News: The Writers Guild has come to a tentative deal with studios on a new 4 year contract (yes, an extra year than normal!). Health plan/pension increases, SVOD bumps, protection to police licensing for AI training, more. Still must be recommended and ratified, but huge news.

The information we have about the Iran War is incomplete and unreliable and it’s still clearly a debacle. The full story is likely much worse.

Honestly, it's horrifying that the US government can arbitrarily revoke Green Cards.

Untranslated headlines in German are much clearer than New York Times headlines in English
