Trans athletes deserve grace and support, not opprobrium

Good piece by @drewharwell.com on the the utter pieces of shit running our government today

What should America should stand for? I think it is our moral responsibility to care for migrants, and my family put up $30,000 toward that end. I hope you’ll join. “You shall not oppress a sojourner. You know the heart of a sojourner, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt" - Exodus 23:9

I just uploaded @jasonparis.bsky.social 's recording of the segment CBS News pulled from "60 Minutes" to YouTube:

My segment on CNBC today Gottlieb: ‘If We Go to the Danish Model and We Substantially Reduce Vaccination … We’re Going to Have to Build New Pediatric Hospitals’ grabien.com/story?id=562...

Bill Belichick looked at UNC football and said, “needs more drama!” linktr.ee/ogtriangleme...

How many academic research center closures at UNC will cover his salary? Two? Three?

Got a good tree topper @mikemcmahan.bsky.social @jvancitters.bsky.social (we’re in danger!)

Who exactly is the intended audience for this?

You can’t beat a podcast that makes random 35-minute “Yule log” videos like this. Love ya @greatesttrek.com @benjaminahr.mobi youtu.be/YoV3c5IuAVE?... cc @howiecohen.bsky.social

The Republican party that is supposedly against pedophilia and human trafficking is the one that both commits pedophilia and facilitates human trafficking.

CBS News turning itself over to the propagandizing widow of a right-wing provocateur is bad on its own terms, but also nothing we haven't seen before. What stands out in this case is just how cheap and desperate and disconnected it all felt. defector.com/cbs-news-hit...

It hasn't even been twelve hours, but all three of us have been overwhelmed with requests from media for comment and I'm mostly writing this now so they'll leave me alone.

The greatest romcom ever made. The greatest declaration of love ever made on screen (ok maybe that’s in The Empire Strikes Back or maybe it’s in The Princess Bride). I don’t know. I know that this is how it’s supposed to be. Goddammit. youtu.be/ovkiChacfc8?...

Highly recommend this episode and the UCLA Housing Voice podcast generally.

@stephenjacobsmith.com I listened to your podcast episode on elevators with @shanedphillips.bsky.social and it was great. Very clear and informative. Also made me angry about what we can’t have in the JS.

Consultants contracted by Minnesota found that an eight-story single-stair building with 6,000 sq. ft. per floor (building 4) has dramatically lower fire risk than a same-height code-compliant two-stair building with a larger floor plate (building 1) www.dli.mn.gov/sites/defaul...

Wow. Bill Belichick fired all of his coordinators. That he isn't related to.

I’m sure one can make a case for retaining @foushee.house.gov as our congressional representative. This op-ed’s arguments—she has seniority (3 years!), co-sponsored bills (that have no chance of passing), and gave up her salary during the shutdown (like many other reps)—ain’t that.

Fantastic that Microsoft Word now forces a floating Copilot icon over the document that I'm trying to write, and there's no way to get rid of it with a business license.

I asked ESPN Research and they asked Elias Sports Bureau and they looked back as far as they could (to 1978) and it would appear Jalen Hurts is the first player to ever commit two turnovers in one play. Isn't history beautiful?

Let's be sensitive to our language choices this week!

Hello from the Winter Meetings. Here with @alexspeier.bsky.social and @timbhealey.bsky.social and the Globe will have extensive coverage all week. All here: www.bostonglobe.com/sports/baseb...

@awfulannouncing.bsky.social red zone audio has cut out. Been several minutes.

Huh, who to believe, the woman who was ripped out of her car and restrained, or the federal CBP officers that have been shown to lie time and time again, resulting in judicial rebukes, grand jury no-bills, dropped criminal cases, and juries not-guilty rulings..

You can help Bolts continue to provide crucial coverage of local elections. Here's how: - Repost this = I donate $1. - Follow @boltsmag.org = I donate $1. - Donate (link below) + tell me how much = I match your donation. (Donate monthly = I match a year's worth)

Idiocy. Bigotry. Cruelty.

Pieces of shit.

Hey, I want to offer some helpful tips for coping with the cold for ICE folks who might have come from warmer places. 1. Wear cotton socks! Cotton is nice and soft next to your skin and will absorb your sweat so your feet stay warm. Cotton everything but ESPECIALLY socks!

Sorry to say the Town of chapel Hill cancelled this week’s “Board of Commission” meeting.

these cars get, in order 37 mpg 45 mpg 45 mpg wish we could buy one here!

You know where they make and sell station wagons? Europe! And they are pretty fuel efficient.

Well this is super important to have been done. Great job @nytimes.com and everyone else who fed this hysteria.

Can't do a poll here, but help us pick the 46th annual Holiday Bowl end zone by commenting below and giving us a compelling reason for your choice. 👇

@brmcc.bsky.social if you search google, there’s a link to a now-disappeared story at @wchlchapelboro.bsky.social that H&H Bagels was going to open last Monday, but it vanished. Any details you can share?

@patrickgeorge.bsky.social I have a Hyundai CCS to supercharger adapter and an A2Z CCS to Tesla destination charger adapter. I just keep them in my trunk within the packaging they were shipped in, so they don’t get into nooks and crannies, and fit in with the bags and other crap I keep in the trunk.

AMAZING! #goheels
