Flawed Premise: “For Democrats to appeal to cultural conservatives, some of them probably have to actually be more culturally conservative than what the party has offered in recent years, and not just adopt a different affect or ignore social issues entirely.” www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

What makes this even more Bonkers is the fact that this deranged person apparently lives in or near UC Davis, one of the most expert publicly-funded Med-Sci colleges and research centers in America.

“Maybe that’s the thing I got most wrong about Silicon Valley. Those Davids I wrote about seemed fearless …as they challenged what was possible and rode the power of the chip and the net. I mistook this for character.” —Steve Levy, OG Silicon Valley Journo. www.wired.com/story/silico...

Fun story this morning. I spoke with Curtis Evans, the retired Marine in the viral photo below who took part in the anti-ICE protest at Broadview. He's a thoughtful guy, well read and with a dry sense of humor. Story @taskandpurpose.com taskandpurpose.com/news/marine-...

Today, we’re running an essential story from @leilaniclark.bsky.social about Sonoma County residents taking action to protect undocumented day laborers from ICE raids. The new program, Adopt a Corner, is activism as a simple act of neighborly solidarity.

Dave Zirin argues that the NFL is not a bystander in the United States' slide into autocracy but an aggravator. NFL owners overwhelmingly back the Trump regime.

BadAss 💯

🤣

Obviously a #MentalHealth evaluation is needed but …. #SantaMonicaNosferatu won’t get one.

Btw, asking in Solidarity w Mr. O’Keefe and w my former adopted hometown, Boston: Will *Establishment* news companies follow up on this @blackenterprise.bsky.social report of this allegedly blatant incident of antiBlack racism? @bostonglobe.com / @wgbh.org www.blackenterprise.com/alex-okeefe-...

Hmmm. Not tryna be super-cynical BUT: Why would @60minutes.bsky.social produce a segment on Bari Weiss’s FascistU StartUp “university” right now? 🤦🏽‍♀️

Technologically advance a band: 4NonBundles

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

Finally watched #JamesGunn’s SUPERMAN feature film. Seems obvious that the reboot of supervillain “Lex Luthor” had been updated to resemble in affect and dark ambitions the real-life supervillain #PeterThiel. www.npr.org/2025/07/10/n...

Today would be a excellent day to donate to the Black Press. Start with @wordinblacknews.bsky.social givebutter.com/rnV3yA 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

He’s ticked off because KH exposed his Craven and Situational core. I say, Stay Mad, dude! sfstandard.com/2025/09/19/n...

Really interesting and well-reported news feature from @wired.com on a young Texas couple who bought into RW conspiracies about #5G — then went on a cell tower destruction spree. apple.news/nowPlaying/A...

I might play this as my alarm every morning for the next month

Maher DGAF: He knows that all he has to do is score another sit-down with Cankles McBlotchy Hands, and grovel his way deeper into the Corrupt presidents’ “Good Graces” by sharing laughs over the gullibility of the #MAGACult. Access Rules!

Do you remember the 21st of September?

A predictably myopic Condemnation of KH written by an Establishment male NYT Opinion Columnist (and former FT book reviewer) that fails to acknowledge the virulent Racism & Misogyny in the US body politic—two dynamics that were her biggest + most formidable opponent. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/o...

Yep. Sadly, these outfits — similar to what remains of most Legacy News Orgs, and the DemParty Comms Industrial Complex — only hires phenotypes of the Upper-Middle-Class, Risk Averse folks who continue to hold top Exec / Gatekeeper roles. They are AFRAID of smart, tough, scrappy Communicators. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Who wrote this headline? #Lowriders do not “chug,” they “cruise” or “bounce.” Yeeesh. www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/l...

Sigh. Why does @nytimes.com not credit @msnbc.com — and specifically the legendary @carolleonnig.bsky.social, who broke this early today— until paragraph six of its #BagManHoman story? Truly a very PETTY and Bad Look www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

😍😍😍

Crooks, Liars, Grifters and Thieves, all the way from top to bottom of 47’s Administration.

On this beautiful Saturday in Brooklyn, it was honor to receive the endorsement of Congresswoman Yvette Clarke (@voteyvette.bsky.social). "Unlike his opponents, I have no doubt that Assemblyman Mamdani will never surrender this city...for the sake of his own self-preservation."

Listening to the ACIP today reminds me of the Michelle Obama quote, “I have been at probably every powerful table that you can think of... They are not that smart.”

All that DJT ass-kissing yet #Zuck’s biggest product dream continues to fail: “In the last decade, Meta has spent over $100 billion on its virtual and augmented reality division. Last quarter, the division reported a $4.5 billion loss, nearly the same as a year.” 🤓 www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/t...

Anyone who signs this pledge is not a journalist.

📌WARNING: As a former managing editor of Stars and Stripes, what Hegseth's Pentagon is pulling with the press is dangerous as hell, anti-American, and will HURT THE TROOPS. 📌Any news organization that advocates for THEM and reports on their quality-of-life issues will potentially be squashed. 🧵

🤦🏽‍♀️ #MAGAFacism Storms the Land— While RICH *LIBERALS* dither.

Breaking News: The Pentagon said it would require journalists to pledge not to use unauthorized information or risk losing credentials to cover the military.

She’s an OG network news anchor—yes, with an interesting name but otherwise primarily benign. Unfair to Ding her on this matter.

Worth your time: Highly recommend @joyannreid.bsky.social ‘s interview with @vickyward.bsky.social re #EPSTEIN and related aspects on how SuperWealth + Misogyny are Upending America youtu.be/bFGq_nNQeLc?...

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

EFF and the ACLU of Northern California are calling out the San Francisco Police Department for breaking the law and sharing automated license plate reader (ALPR) data with out-of-state and federal agencies. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

What are the odds? The Corrupt Orangeman is now hiring lawyers he finds in MontgomeryWards-style Catalogues of Affordable Legal Representatives😵‍💫

Petty and desperate: This Damnable Pres Administration is now resorting to demanding #Harvard’s Lunch Money. 😑 www.nytimes.com/2025/09/19/u...

Photojournalism by the Tribune's @staceywescott.bsky.social

This what happens when you hire Racist College DropOuts to staff your FBI Press Office. 🥴

Ooof 🤣

Ack! Correction: this interview is with @zentronix.bsky.social and he’s author of “Water Mirror Echo” a book examining the life of the Legendary BRUCE LEE. Highly recommend!

Terrific interview w @originalsp.in re his new book on the Legendary BRUCE LEE. Can’t wait to read “Water Mirror Echo” by Jeff Yang! Lee was one of my heroes during my youth in #SanFrancisco— even more so NOW as Jeff reveals his backstage battles in Hollywood. 🌉 www.californiasun.co/podcast/jeff...

🤦🏽‍♀️

I experienced this last week & refused, saying I had never before been asked to provide the names of any analysts I was planning to quote to get a comment. Spox replied that maybe they were D donors. (In that case, it was 3 retired top military JAG officers.) I guess that was not a weird oneoff.

Measureless liar

Nope.

Do one thing today to help. One thing tomorrow. One thing the day after. Taking a swing at every bad thing happening is just going to burn you out. Remember, if everyone does their one thing the world changes
