This is heartening. Making sure @chestercat.bsky.social sees this too. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Thank you @caoimhesport.bsky.social for writing this terrific story!! How Jess Rowe and Miriam Payne made history rowing the Pacific Ocean www.nytimes.com/athletic/677...

I really really enjoyed your Diane Keaton piece in the @nytimes.com this evening @manohladargis.bsky.social - your reaction to “Something’s Gotta Give” was spot on! - She was a real favorite of mine. So thanks. 🌺

Say @emilynussbaum.bsky.social I enjoyed your Ben Folds piece in the Aug 18th issue. I’m a fan. Hope he’s heard Mr Springsteen’s stand on the state of our country. NOT dead behind the eyes. 😉

This is Horus. He got a lot of attention on a recent flight in Mexico. Clearly the other passengers have never flown with someone so handsome. 14/10 we're told he was very well behaved (TT: denniabuendagalvn, paulinagtza_, cheetahbash, cristianjbetancourt)

Sen. Amy Klobuchar dined with Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota lawmaker and decades-long friend, just hours before she and her husband were shot and killed in what authorities are saying was a politically motivated killing. “I wish everyone had known her like we knew her,” Klobuchar told POLITICO.

Caitlin Clark made seven 3-pointers and scored a season-high 32 points in her return from a five-game absence, and the Indiana Fever handed the defending WNBA champion New York Liberty their first loss of the season with a 102-88 victory Saturday.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

New requirements that Social Security recipients go online or in person to a field office to access key benefits, instead of making a phone call, could pose barriers to people in rural communities who lack internet access or transportation.

Yes Brian @thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social It is an issue about FREE SPEECH - I certainly don’t know the details about Mr. Khalil but I support his right to speak whether I agree or not. This current administration is trying to silence our voices and we MUST rise up against those actions.

Just a side note @nicollewallace.bsky.social I could swear you are wearing some pretty gorgeous looking purple shoes today. Am I right? ☺️

Dear @tntsportsus.bsky.social it’s great you show hockey games but obvious bias of the announcers & intermission crew towards the Rangers is unacceptable. They’ve clearly not done their research on Bruins these last weeks as B’s games have vastly improved but you’d never know it by these guys. 🙄

In all, this is unlike any other moment in the history of the American presidency, where on the eve of being inaugurated, the family of a president-elect sets up a money-making venture to take direct cash payments from people around the world. Read our story. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/19/u...

@amaliebenjamin.bsky.social Amalie I hope you start posting here - I have to give up twitter and I’d hate to lose reading your work.

Our film critic @justincchang.bsky.social shares the films, directors, performances, and screenplays he would nominate for an Academy Award—and who he thinks should win each category.

This is great read…I do believe it is the little things that each person can do - a small act of kindness or generosity- that will keep us (me at least) able to cope in the years ahead…and not give in to total despair.

It should have been relatively easy for the United States to contain bird flu; instead, leaders let an outbreak balloon, Katherine J. Wu writes. There are essential tools officials haven't used to limit the threat of new H5N1 infections:

@jeffkazee.bsky.social I just read what you wrote about Southside and the Jukes over on that other place. Wish all of you the best for whatever is next. 🕯️⭐️

I saw this Saturday. So well done. Obviously so many liberties taken with the actual facts. But the story, the music took me back, so many memories. Very emotional.

@esglaude.bsky.social you brought tears to my eyes with your passion just now on @msnbc @aliciamenendez.bsky.social in reference to black student admissions at the elite schools.

Okay I see familiar names. This was my latest from a couple weeks ago. #flowerreport I hope everyone is doing okay.

I’ve not closed my twitter account yet but I want to. I am on threads too. I want to be somewhere that keeps me up on what is happening. That is all. Sam is my cat. He is a good boy. I am devastated by recent political events. I work part time as an usher at the Hudson Theatre on Broadway.

So inspiring www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-cy... I can't wait for the Beacon show in December - still tickets available for the second night! www.sweetrelief.org/news/night-2...

And @chestercat.bsky.social am presuming you read the news of JD Souther? NYT had lovely, knowledgeable obit.

My friend just texted me a photo of decorated tile from her trip to Portugal, and I could stare at it all day

The Swiss typeface designer Adrian Frutiger — creator of Univers, Frutiger, and Avenir — designed this book as a Christmas gift for personal and professional friends in 1969. It contains the creation myth from Genesis in four languages, accompanied by his own modernist illustrations. 1/n

U.S. officials said 22 American citizens were among the more than 1,000 people killed in the wake of the Hamas assault over the weekend. At least 17 Americans remained unaccounted for, although it was not clear how many were being held hostage. Here is what we know.

A common yellowthroat. (Close-ups and depth of field are lovely, but I really like photos that capture animals in their context.) 🪶

NASA just released this image of The Harvest Moon on Sept. 29, taken from Space.

I am really bad at this 🥹

I keep coming back to this typography, which is extremely good, and there are so many layers of references here, down to the selective use of red, it is truly a work of art in addition to a protest object. It is a broadside in more ways than one and I hope it’s plastered all over campus.

A group of self-described "gutter-pagan, mostly queer dirtbags" erased $1.6 million in local medical debt. They celebrated with an unofficial debt burning.
