Who called it an administrative stay issued by the U.S. Supreme Court late Friday night and not a SNAP judgement?

He’s running. And he’s pretty sure he’ll be running against Vance.

I tried to whistle over a stray cat in my neighborhood and a woman walked by, who I worried thought I whistled at her. So I said “im whistling at the cat” but when I looked back down at it I realized it was just an old fast food bag

🚨 PORTLAND HAS ITS OWN JAPANESE MASCOT 🚨

tl;dr: Because troops were already blocked with preliminary orders in Oregon, this changes nothing on the ground immediately. It is, however, now a permanent order — on both federalization and deployment — and is a huge deal. And, of course, will be appealed.

BREAKING: Judge Immergut issues a permanent injunction against Pete Hegseth and the deployment of the National Guard to Portland. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A long and comprehensive opinion, but this jumped out at me: The judge accused the Federal Protective Service—which was called in to suppress the protests—of lying under oath to slander the regular Portland police.😬 DOJ recently admitted that other FPS claims in this case were objectively false.

i was really skeptical that this was the case at the beginning, but i'm not sure what other explanation makes sense at this point

I use FB to see what Oregon conservatives are saying, so FB thinks I'm a middle-aged white conservative. Over the past few weeks the algorithm has aggressively served me a non-stop barrage of straight up white nationalist and Nazi shit like this. I follow none of these accounts.

Cornell agrees to "invest" $30 million in things like AI farming. Cornell also agrees to pay $30 million to the U.S. for no clear reason or purpose.

Cornell agrees to include Bondi's anti-DEI/anti-trans memo as a "training resource to faculty and staff" (see: www.justice.gov/ag/media/140...)

BREAKING: Cornell caved. Here is the settlement agreement, signed today by the university's president, Michael Kotlikoff: statements.cornell.edu/2025/documen...

LET ME BE PERFECTLY CLEAR: DOJ DID ALL OF THIS TO TRY AND STOP PAYMENTS TO PEOPLE UNDER AN ANTI-HUNGER PROGRAM.

Oh, this is wild. DOJ went to SCOTUS *before* we got the First Circuit's administrative stay denial. (We know this because DOJ just filed a letter at SCOTUS about the admin stay denial.) So, DOJ went to SCOTUS b/c the First Circuit did not meet its less-than-seven-hour "deadline" for a ruling.

The easiest political layup for Democrats in recent memory. That’s even compared to a lot of other easy layups.

Maths... If you make $100,000 a year (not bad), it will take you 10 MILLION years to earn a trillion dollars. If you make a million dollars a year (wow!), it'll still take you a million years to earn a trillion dollars. Tax the rich.

"All right, class, who knows what Watson and Crick discovered?" "Rosalind Franklin's notes." "That's correct."

JAMES WATSON IS DEAD AND THAT IS A GREAT BOOKEND FOR THE WEEK.

This is very fun.

It’s pure vibe policing. If it were about trust or safely, ‘rude’ wouldn’t be hidden by default while ‘misinfo’ just gets a label.

This is just about setting the defaults so that ‘high value’ / high profile users and corporations don’t see people yelling at them for being shit.

My favorite parts of Minnesota include the scenery up toward Canada and all the snow, though winters are warming, which breaks my heart. The food scene is great in the Twin Cities. And my perspective is skewed because I hang out in dance studios, but this is a queer/trans-friendly place.

Mark Zuckerberg's Palo Alto neighbors complained about noise, security guards, and hordes of traffic. An unlicensed school named after the Zuckerbergs’ pet chicken tipped them over the edge. Read more: wrd.cm/4hMW4PM

Huh. And oh.

Such a beautiful space, though. The books that remained made me a little sad: unsung works of every genre presented as gifts by authors to mayors, many inscribed. How many ever opened?

I LEARNED THE ANSWER TO THIS Chris's Steakhouse was a New Orleans landmark Chris Matulich periodically got bored, sold it, waited for the new owner to fail, and bought it back cheap The sale conditions: Can't move it, can't change the name He did this six times Then he sold it to Ruth Fertel

Brisket. Lasagna.

Today, it’s simply buttermilk biscuits. They’re not perfect, but I know why and I don’t care. This week, 4yo has mostly been adding ingredients and occasionally stirring. Today, she got to flour her hands and do the work. Couldn’t be more proud. (Also, couldn’t have been more fun.)

This is a great idea.

If I were trying to destabilize a superpower, it'd look a lot like this

School board email has been bouncing back undelivered for me this week. (Convenient!) Use: [email protected] and all Board + Supt emails. See my reply for all emails.

Her lips tell me that I would need to sit up straight in her classroom.

I know others have said it this week, but truly … Go here and change the setting for “Rude” to “Off.” It’s a buried setting that is automatically set to “hide,” which is evil UX.

If you are a parent of a kid in Minneapolis public schools, please, please, PLEASE take 2 minutes to email the school board ([email protected]) and superintendent ([email protected]) to tell them to settle with the educators' union and give them what they want. Your emails truly help!

My cats could finish all my home-improvement projects, burn the house down, or just continue sleeping all over the place. Almost impossible to know, really.

lol back to back stories on NPR: Musk may be first trillionaire, in other news people are starving in Virginia, here’s what some overstretched school districts are doing 🥴

Looking for a quiet spot in St. Paul for dinner with dad tomorrow. Not going for fancy, neither of us are HUGE meat eaters, he is not a beer drinker, anywhere around St. Paul - just looking for a new (low-key) experience. Anyone have any personal favorites...?

Three children were killed by lawn darts in the 70’s and they were banned in the US. ChatGPT has caused how many deaths at this point? If corporations are people, why aren’t we holding them criminally liable?

Quite a headline.

4yo has a Crayola tin full of like 100 crayons and I get to use them, too. Did you know that they let just anyone buy big tins full of crayons? Did you know that EVEN YOU are allowed to purchase and own and use a big tin full of crayons? Go buy some crayons.

Thank you for this in particular, @mattbrown.bsky.social, which hit me like a ton of bricks. There are times when I don’t even get this, when this is pretty much me.
