Here is a super accurate vibes teaser for WHY AREN'T YOU DEAD YET? the sickest disability in dystopia anthology. This anthology isn't just #CrippingDystopia it's also recommended by 9/10 dentists* #booksky #authorsky #readersky #disability *allegedly

“A Stanford-led study of 4mn job applications across 156 employers who used the Pymetrics hiring platform, which assesses people using a series of online games, found evidence of ‘systemic rejection’ linked to the algorithms it used.”

They're discussing this item now. 40 acre parcel, but a lot of it is wetland and not buildable. They're proposing a 37k sq ft building, plus some paved parking and some gravel parking

A livestream of a volcano in the Philippines captured a meteor crashing to Earth today. What are the odds? Mayon Volcano, Location: Albay, Luzon, Philippines

I LOVE BOOSTERS is a hilarious, bonkers, sexy-as-fuck masterpiece. You HAVE to see it in a theater just to hear an audience react to *that* scene. Leave the kids at home. WOWWWWW.

Let me take a look at today's totally normal headlines. sfstandard.com/2026/05/21/j...

First story of 2026 out this month! "Archaeological Evidence for the Time Traveler" is about an archaeologist, her son, her time travel expert ex, and the messages said ex might've left her from hundreds of years in the past 👀 clarkesworldmagazine.com/tashiro_05_26/

Love the energy he's giving off in this and just OWNING it:

Since 2013, Maricopa County officials have approved $226 million in sheriff’s office spending related to a settlement aimed at rooting out racial profiling. Auditors found that more than 70% of it was misattributed or misappropriated. Rafa and Gabe report for @propublica.org & @azluminaria.org

Difficult post, but past time to rip the band aid off. FIYAH is going on hiatus indefinitely, with issue #40 currently set to be our last for the time being. The mag cannot continue running at a loss, and needs time to reassess operations from top to bottom if a viable path forward is to be created.

@pocan.house.gov voted No 👍

On the UDC agenda now: - Southwest & Southeast Area Plans - 1910 Roth Street & 1201 Huxley Street (large-scale residential) - Toki Elementary and Orchard Ridge Middle Schools

Regent Street is on the BPW agenda. If you'd like to see bike lanes, or just see Madison follow its own ordinance, tell 'em to send it back to TC one more time!

As tick season ramps up, keep in mind importance of preserving any tick that attaches. In theory, a tick not engorged cannot pass on disease, but there can still be infection and for peace of mind I always send them to the Tick Report. Testing is fast and not that expensive. 1/2 www.tickreport.com

Toby the African pygmy falcon (Polihierax semitorquatus) is taking a dust bath at the Cincinnati Zoo. Birds secrete oil from a uropygial gland ('preen gland') that is antimicrobial, conditions & adds waterproofing. A dust bath helps remove this oil so a fresh layer can be applied.

So fantastic to live in the dark brown part of the map. :P Do what you gotta do out there, people. wausaupilotandreview.com/2026/05/18/t...

Every time our local police, county sheriffs, or state police add ALPRs somewhere in Illinois, we're feeding the fed surveillance beast.

There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power (video: defiancedispatch/IG)

Why do city planners have to include these bottom-of-the-barrel street connections in neighborhoods that are already fully streeted?? What we need is not street additions, but street subtractions plz

Another one down! Fitchburg, you're next

BREAKING | After years of delays, the Madison Public Market now has an official grand opening date: July 23. Market CEO Keisha Harrison estimated that roughly half of the market’s 28 main spaces will be open by that date in the building at 202 N. First St., with more likely under construction.

I missed this announcement how?! if you are somehow not aware, Kuzhali Manickavel is one of the best and weirdest writers of our age, and, without even having read it, I guarantee that her first novel will be incredible and renew your faith in the human capacity to art. Preorder instantly pls 👇🏾

The Chief Justice and his wife took 20 million dollars from firms with cases in front of the court. A level of corruption no one expected from the nation's highest court

I feel I should alert Bluesky to the baby foxes in our yard

Aedan Gardill and Alex Lonero: Just like access to water or beds to sleep on, communication is not a luxury but a basic need that Dane County must provide for

This is Jam. He said he was the highest jumping golden retriever in Ontario. May or may not have lied on his resume. Still 13/10 (IG: skythepupvlogger)

Applying a new punishment to a conviction from 20 years ago seems like a blatant violation of the 5th amendment Ya know, if we had a constitution

I wonder if his attorney will appeal and get him reinstated

It doesn't have to be very complicated or expensive - add a sign and a cheap gate - gate has gap for cyclists and pedestrians - gate can be opened by anyone in case of emergency or for maintenance access - raise a small section of street so the curb curves around, visually directing drivers to turn

Our new album, The New World, will be released worldwide on July 31st (!). But you can watch the JM-directed video for our first single. “Daydream Unbeliever” now. youtu.be/iqfqt1XYuds...

This week in #Madison Transportation Commission, 5pm Wednesday www.cityofmadison.com/city-hall/co... - Regent Street again. Staff presentation is mainly about options for the 900 block (Mills to Regent) but there will be public comment on the lack of bike lanes throughout

@votedinanina.bsky.social Thanks for validating my feelings about the Regent Street redesign I guess, but could you please support bike lanes this time?

We're still raising money for a new platform for Flights of Foundry! We'd really appreciate your support and reshares! givebutter.com/FoFne...
