A Burger King customer insists on misgendering and berating an employee, then lodges a complaint against the employee for standing up for herself. Many of these workers aren’t making enough to feed themselves, yet they have to feed bigots who claim to be “first amendment lawyers”.

Shot in the dark: Wally’s favorite toy got disemboweled by a dog friend while I was out of town, and they don’t seem to make this anymore. Does anybody have a Zippy Paws corgi that their dog doesn’t care about that you’d be willing to rehome?

I waited a day to say this bc I respected everyone's right to vent some anger, but *remember to focus on what you can do*. Whether it's defending your community, taking action around what you've been venting about, whatever — but don't let all of your energy get captured in the social media space.

Just finished reading final student reflections after my AfAmStudies students finished reading “Wake” by @wakerevolt.bsky.social This book hits so hard; both the stories of women-led revolts and the story of the persistence of Dr Hall inspired my students. Y’all should read this book. #APAFAM 🗺️

This afternoon, more developments are expected on both tracks: * At SCOTUS, DOJ is ordered by Justice Jackson to file any supplemental brief supporting its stay request by 4 p.m. * At the Massachusetts District Court, Judge Talwani ordered a remote hearing for 3:30 p.m.

OK, where are we on the SNAP benefits cases? Two things happened this morning: * DOJ told SCOTUS they're still fighting to stop full November SNAP benefit payments, via their stay request at SCOTUS * District court judge in Mass. stayed USDA's 11/8 memo ordering states to "undo" full payments

it’s important to understand that Nate Silver’s entire consciousness is filtered through the lens of being a gross nerd his entire life. the opportunity to feel like he’s one of the cool kids is something he can’t pass up, it’s load-bearing for his dork psyche.

The International Olympic Committee is set to ban trans and intersex women from competition. This is despite the fact that for 20 years, the IOC has allowed trans athletes to compete and only 1 has ever competed and none have ever won a medal. www.the-independent.com/sport/olympi...

The Spanish public television has published the first audiovisual map showing the 6,000 mass graves from the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) and the subsequent Francoist dictatorship (1939-1975). A testimony of what happens when fascism wins -something unknown in most of Europe.

He would ALWAYS organize his balls in a row for us. Play was too important to leave to chance. He’d be sleeping now, recharging for the next toss or swim or wrestle or leap. He was a pure and loving and joyful soul in a hard world and even now, resting by the black cherry tree, he teaches us.

Ah yes, the GOP gets to continue destroying the government, the Dems get a line for an email.

What is the argument for voting for Democrats for harm reduction if the harm is not fucking reduced

Squirrel of the Day for November 10, 2025 can't believe what he's seeing #sqrlpix

millions of kids won’t be able to go to the doctor next year so I hope the woman I heard on the radio whining about being unable to close on a house because of the government shutdown is happy

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:
