There was a joint Free DC chant here at BMO. Two cities who have a deep understanding of being occupied by their own government. Dope to see and hear.

New game, new sign. #NWSL #KCBaby

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

"Audi es mágico" is I believe the quote of the day from González.

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

Adopt a cat, become an unstoppable goalscorer it's just science

Esme Morgan just now said that she "had a feeling" she was going to score today, & told her boyfriend this morning. No comment on whether she was sure it would be 2 goals. #NWSL

More than 1,000 rabbis, Jewish community leaders and other Jewish New Yorkers are holding a Friday rally to protest the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil.

Ending voting for women is a core part of the Evangelical plan for the country. They have even considered implementing “household” voting where each family only casts one vote (and we know who decides). This is the first step. (Image reposted with ALT)

Oh my god. They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service. "Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights" WOW.

Everything is extremely chaotic but the best info we have so far suggests that Trump’s “stop funding” EO would cover: Medicaid ESSA funds IDEA Snap School meals WIC Head start grants Child care block grants Pell grants Student loans Higher Ed grants Housing vouchers CTE Devastating beyond words.

Wait I thought republicans didn’t want government interference in private businesses? wHaT aBOuT the frEe maRkEt?!

This is the GOP’s long con on full display.

pro tip: don’t call something a “debate” when one side is just trying to defend their human rights and the other is trying to punish their existence.

Also worth noting for WoSo friends: it may be tempting to not block him and quote dunk instead. It’s a habit from Twitter that people like Lalas use to their advantage. Blocks are good for your own sanity and the health of the broader community.

There are two kinds of people at 6:40 am.

Airline is trying to get people to gate check their bags by offering early boarding in exchange. What possible reason is there to spend more time on a plane than necessarily other than needing to find space for your carry on?

Wow, this is the sort of thing that only happens in banana republics, or so I have been told.

If you like being able to use tools like this, you should probably tell your elected officials to fully fund the EPA.

In 2020 you could ID the Democrats by who wore a mask with a >10% positivity rate. In 2023 you can ID the westerners by who wears a mask with a >150 AQI. Protect your lungs. Wear a mask. (ps - they also work on pollen!) (pps - and they show off your eye makeup!)

Okay team, where are my NWSL and USWNT professional women’s soccer fans to follow? ⚽️⚽️⚽️ I’m a Washington Spirit season ticket holder with @tammy.bsky.social and serial WWC attendee working on my schedule for NZ and Australia from group play through the final.

PSA for easterner friends who didn’t grow up out west: An n95 will do a decent job of protecting your lungs from wildfire smoke, COVID & pollen. Your AC unit has a filter. You need to clean and replace it. Wildfires are awful but they do make for great sunrises. Get up early.
