I just love seeing how happy they all are 🥲 #Artemis

Y'all there is a woman and a black man circling the moon and NASA's mission control+ science teams are so diverse and people are nerding out about science and exploration this is all a gigantic middle finger to the stupid and hate and grotesque ghouls running our country

I'm never gonna be This cool, but Dad's should aspire to be the kind of Dad that gets their kids to dance for them bc they're proud of them.

Plan your Monday wisely everyone

This may have been the dumbest thing I’ve ever read in the NYT

Also preschool isn’t child care, it’s early childhood education which is a different thing

yes you fucking morons free preschool for everyone or it becomes just "free preschool for the poors" and then you call them leeches and ask for tax breaks when really we want free preschool for everyone because we want smart well adjusted kids why is this so hard? www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/n...

The administration so supposedly consumed with concern about fraud in government programs dropped 900 cases of federal program or procurement fraud and over 100 health care fraud cases www.propublica.org/article/trum...

The frequency with which I have to tell people this!

Caster Semenya, a two-time Olympian with a variation in her sex traits, criticized the IOC policy discriminating against transgender and intersex women. “It’s like now we need to prove that we are worthy as women to take part in sports. That is disrespect for women." www.nytimes.com/athletic/715...

Oh hey! Thats me with my Abolish Ice quilt!

New Yorkers, join us in the first ever Mayor’s Municipal Madness: a competition of city fixes where everyone wins. Pick your fix and vote here: nyc.gov/madness

want a list of specifics for what mamdani—who campaigned on not only protecting trans people’s right to access essential healthcare but *expanding* it—could be doing, that you could highlight when reaching out? check the article. then reach out to mayor mamdani. 🧵 📧: www.nyc.gov/mayors-offic...

so what's the ask? there’s a few things you can do. if you're in NY state, reach out & tell AG letitia james to enforce the state constitution NOW. she can sue the hospitals-california AG bonta did this last year & got care restored. one angry letter to one provider without action isn't enough! 🧵

Knowing who to be mad at is praxis.

ICE officers getting paid for standing around doing nothing while TSA employees work without pay is a pretty succinct summation of where we're at right now

oh but health is your own personal responsibility, I heard

We need to stop asking how much street width we can use for cars and start asking how much we can use for playgrounds.

I think most Americans assume that there IS a legal path to citizenship that a lot of undocumented people simply don’t want to go through, and I think now people are discovering that there isn’t! And they think there should be.

For the record, Leading Jewish Group JFREJ is very much in favor of Mayor Mamdani hosting Mahmoud Khalil and his family for Iftar.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

The New York attorney general's office has ordered NYU Langone to resume gender affirming care for trans youth due to violating New York Human Rights law. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/02/n... Bypass here. archive.ph/4NboB

Some New Yorkers receiving food stamps must prove they are working, studying or volunteering for at least 80 hours per month or risk losing the benefit under new federal rules beginning on Sunday, March 1. www.thecity.nyc/2026/02/27/s...

wow

Columbia University President Claire Shipman sent an email to the C.U. community a couple of hours ago, saying that DHS agents detained a Columbia student in university housing this morning after apparently misrepresenting themselves to gain entry.

I think that people should read Bright's thread because there are a number of good points made. We're not all going to agree on each point but it's good & essential to have an ongoing discussion about these matters. These conversations usually happen within organizations.

Is anyone keeping track of the hundreds or thousands of policy & legal repairs & reversals that will be needed once this regime is out of power? Project 2028, if you will?

By the end of his term Zohran will have built enough media clips to create his own Busy Town franchise, except where he plays all the parts. Zohran Mamdani’s Busy Town. I swear he does forty things a day

You: *settles into seat, opens the program for OH MARY* Slip of paper falls out You: picks up, peers at it, reads slowly aloud: “The role of Mary Todd Lincoln will be played tonight by Zohran Mamdani”

I got married at the City Clerk’s office and it was wonderful!

This is the correct stance and everything else is useless fluttering

This whole thread (from a didn’t-used-to-be-immigration lawyer in Minnesota) is worth reading, but I’m specifically sharing the posts surrounding the one for my many health folks. This is what the resistance against ICE is fighting to save people from.

Immigration attorney lets us know what's going on in Minnesota. Grim, indeed. Thread!

To everyone thanking me, much appreciated but not why I posted! Pls support your local immigrant defense group like: The Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota: www.ilcm.org/donate/ Or my hometown LUCE: www.lucemass.org/donate Or Google your city/state & “immigrant defense” to find your local heroes!

People can have different political opinions about immigration policy. Political differences are fine, healthy for a democracy. But if you’re okay with this, that’s not a political opinion. That is a moral failing. 27/

These are the conditions under which the Trump regime wants to detain noncitizens indefinitely. It violates international law, the Eighth Amendment, and our own laws & regulations. And the DOJ and DHS are willing to manipulate any law, defy any court order, to keep doing so. 26/

If USAID can be dismantled with this level of awful consequences, surely we can dismantle ICE.

Lmao come on man. This is B tier Columbo villain stuff

I cannot give enough kudos to the We Rate Dogs account for their clear explanation of this issue and for using their *enormous* platform to educate people.

The idea of a bill rendering people deportable for following religious law should make every Jew ill

People keep complaining about the red hats because they’re not “real” protest but that lady has raised and donated over $600,000 to her neighbors in MN *and* is the the daughter of a refugee from Egypt. Y’all gotta sit with those impulses and then calm tf down and think about WHY you feel dismissive

I’ve been thinking about it all day and I’ve decided that the golden snake with golden eyes that can snap at cars and spit fire should be the symbol of New York under Mamdani

Dancing Moka coffee pots at the Olympics opening ceremony! Italy, I love you

Pour one out for this banger Onion article, which I apparently no longer have a reason to post regularly.

Vice President JD Vance gets roundly booed at the opening ceremony of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics. "Those are a lot of boos for him, whistling jeering," says the presenter. US athletes receive a warm welcome from fans, though.

IMPORTANT OLYMPIC NEWS: THE POLISH FIGURE SKATING TEAM HAS A PLUSH PIEROGI

They're trying to tell us that they always get what they want. That there is nothing so hideous that they won't do it, even if it's kidnap a five year old child and then, when they lose, really try even harder to make him suffer more. Fuck them.

Naah, I want them on trial.

“It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them.” — Mayor of Pontevedra, Spain (re-elected 6 times)
