[yelling over club music] I said grief is a rain that falls on everything

Grocery prices are rising faster than wages, so we’re launching 5 municipal grocery stores with lower prices. But people can't benefit from resources they don't know about. These stores need expert branding to properly serve New Yorkers.   Submit a design proposal before June 30! grocery.nyc/brand

Earlier that day, I met residents whose NYCHA homes in Brooklyn will finally receive the repairs and renovations they deserve through the Public Housing Preservation Trust.

Thom Tillis yesterday: "I'm not going to vote for it if we don't have underlying language to restrict 1776 fund." Guess how he voted. www.huffpost.com/entry/senate...

Scientists warn Trump plan to axe US ocean monitoring system will leave world ‘flying blind’

They’re packaging it like this so it looks like a shallow trend, but Gen Z has gone through two financial crises, a pandemic, rising fascism, active shooter drills since they were toddlers, and are now being told by the oligarchy they’re to be replaced by robots. Socialism is the logical conclusion.

$70,000,000,000 borrowed dollars on the backs of our grandchildren to terrorize and imprison our neighbors. The Republican Party is grotesque

For many years, there were allegations that ICE would “release” critically ill people in hospitals so that their deaths wouldn’t be recorded as in ICE custody. To fix this, in 2021 the Biden admin required ICE to report deaths occurring up to 30 days after release. Now that rule has been dropped.

Senate Republicans just started a marathon voting session known as vote-a-rama in the Senate. Not to improve your life. Not to lower your costs. But to funnel $70 billion more to ICE and the abuses I saw at Delaney Hall. Not another dime.

U.S. health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is pursuing federal government access to most Americans’ medical records, in a quest to research a link between vaccines and autism, a connection the medical establishment studied for decades and flatly rejects. www.cnn.com/2026/06/04/h...

Protests in Albania grow over Jared Kushner-backed luxury resort

SCN has been an invaluable documentary resource live from Delaney Hall. This tiny team of reporters has shown up with their video cameras and mics, putting themselves in serious danger, across American cities invaded by ICE. Give them money.

ICE flights. Wednesday, June 3, 2026. At least 59 flights on 22 aircraft, including at least 11 removals stops.

Listen, screw Xitter, but Hunter Biden is pissing them all off over there in the most hilarious way.

“In a preliminary MIT Media Lab study, 83% of participants who wrote essays using ChatGPT couldn’t quote a single sentence from what they’d submitted moments earlier. ‘It passed from the computer screen onto the homework assignment without ever entering their brain,’ So said.” 🫠

Senate Republicans have officially ditched the ballroom, which is now in legal limbo with no help coming from Congress www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Adam Hamawy is a seasoned veteran combat medic who literally saved the life of a sitting senator of the United States; volunteered to treat Bosnians and Palestinians during their genocides, helped 9/11 victims on 9/11, and this is how the NYT decides to describe him after he wins a seat to Congress.

Shortly after the 2025 elections, I published a list of seven voting laws every blue state should enact. While I stand by all seven, I want to highlight three. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/its-...

Sotomayor, joined by Kagan and Jackson, issues a 17-page dissent to the 4-page order: "[J]ust as Alabama doubled down on racial discrimination, the Court today doubles down on chaos."

Wow. The Hollywood Reporter says 60 Minutes' new management has fired correspondent Scott Pelley, who has worked for the network for nearly 40 years, was anchor of the CBS Evening News for six years before joining the newsmagazine. Good luck getting fans of the show to keep watching. loom.ly/TpgqRmA

I need to believe that this actually happened.

For those who want to see an encouraging story about journalism, YouTube is offering free access to Spotlight, the 2015 film on how investigative journalists at the Boston Globe exposed the Catholic Church's history of covering up instances when priests abused young people. WATCH: loom.ly/ZJk2t2M

Max the bluejay.

Indiana told the public it gave less than $1 million in data center subsidies in 2025. The real number? $655 million. And $561 million of that went to a single company: Amazon. While Hoosiers pay sales tax on groceries, Amazon paid nothing. This isn’t economic development. It’s a heist.

C’mon the Bees…

Imagine being so unable to love your child that you set fire to the whole damn world instead.

Trump (right before the market opened): Iran really wants to make a deal Iran: actually we’re suspending all communications

It’s the first of June, the beginning of Pride month. Stonewall was a riot. Trans rights are human rights. No one gets to erase us from history. Fight back against book bans. Fuck anybody who thinks we don’t deserve love or bodily autonomy. They don’t get to steal our joy.

Also, if you borrow an author's book from a library in the UK, that author gets more than 12 pence per loan in Public Lending Rights. Any author can earn up to £6,600 per year this way. That’s more than I’ve been paid by any publisher this year.

Home Office sends letters to children as young as five saying they must leave UK

"Empty the dishwasher". I think ive texted the boy this 133 times in a day.

Note to media: police arresting peaceful protesters singing “give peace a chance” is not protesters “clashing” with police. It’s the state violating the First Amendment rights of people upset that human beings who did nothing illegal are being held without due process and being fed maggots.

Please sir, could you spare some trash?

ICE and GEO are so secretive and clandestine. This crap doesn’t belong in a democracy. #DelaneyHall

Full moon rising tonight as seen by me in West London. So called Blue moon as we've had two in May.
