These beans plus collards plus garlic plus hot spices = delicious

JFC, these internet gym "alpha" dudes would call 2000 X-Men Hugh Jackman fat today with a straight face and expect you to take them seriously and when you don't they'll break something like the dangerous, pathetic roid fools they are Seriously the plot has been lost, so, so fucking lost

I HAVE MADE A FOOD! I have grown a handful of tomatoes between these two plants and I'm so proud 🥰🥰🥰

For ALA's sake, I'm glad this is so highly bid on but I am sad for me because I had to give up many bids ago /cry movieposters.ha.com/itm/movie-po...

DAWG WE'RE DOING STATE-RUN GAS PRICES AT PRICE CONTROLLED RATES DESPITE INCREASING SHORTAGES TO PACIFY THE PEOPLE AND THEY'RE SCREAMING ABOUT HOW THEIR OPPONENTS WANT COMMUNISM I AM GOING TO LOSE MY ENTIRE GODDAMN MIND

Congratulations to @thelibrariansfilm.bsky.social for being nominated for an Emmy!

"They just want to turn it off." A fascinating story of the librarians who have started teaching classes showing people how to remove AI "features" from their phones and apps. www.bangordailynews.com/2026/07/02/m...

New shoes and I feel like I'm disconnected from the earth

Here it is: the story I've been trying to track down now for over a week and in the midst of researching, learned this library is a 501c3, and thus, not eligible to FOIA. The New York Public Library's leadership has sold out to Trump, including censoring book lists. us250nypl.my.canva.site

ALERT: Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY) asks Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to provide a health update to him and to all Kentuckians

If we have money for bombs we have money for education. Student loan debt should be erased. Higher ed should be 100% funded by taxation.

Beyond Book Prescription: Expanding Bibliotherapy in Library Practice #libraries

It was a fuck up with enormous, national consequences. Not only did the Democratic Party declare itself Nazi-agnostic, but it may *actually* end up losing us the Senate, the very thing supporters insisted any criticism of Platner would do. This is a major league fuck up, and was 100% avoidable.

Im rewatching the Coen Bros v of The Odyssey (O Brothet Where Are Thou) and I would take a gd bullet for John Goodman the way he honors and elevates southern accents compared to so many pisspoor performances from hollywood regarding the south.

I do think there’s a way back for people who commit heinous crimes, but none of those paths involve becoming a fucking senator.

Hyun Sook and I are thrilled and honored that Good Old-Fashioned Korean Spirit has been nominated for Best Young Adult Book at the @harveyawards.bsky.social! @penguinteen.bsky.social @penguinschoollib.bsky.social

A world not led by warmongering, racist, abusers is possible. We don't have to keep doing this. Goddammit.

If I see any of y'all trying to make McConnell out to be anything other than the terrible person he has always been once news breaks, I stg

🚨BREAKING🚨 More than 600 workers at Hachette Book Group just voted overwhelmingly to unionize, creating the largest union in trade publishing history! newsguild.org/hachette-boo...

I truly fucked up not doing my due diligence on Platner before offering high praise for his communication skills. Enough was out there at the time that I should have been more cautious. Especially because I met adventurer dudes like him reporting in Iraq. Deep respect to all who got it right. 1/2

The irony about "asking nicely" for safer bike and pedestrian infrastructure is that auto companies didn't ask nicely when they colluded with cities to rip out streetcars and remake roads for cars. They just did it. All we want to do is take back space that has historically been for people.

You do not have to give people “due process” before you choose not to vote for them. You can just be like “oh word the guy who wrote rape apologia and had allegations just got another serious allegation? Guess he doesn’t need to be my senator.”

The US founders were largely slavers This is revisionist bullshit

If silent, peaceful protest is against the rules, why not move on to more dramatic forms of protest? You'll be punished either way.

i was not expecting the cheese magazine to go for this one but i’m so glad they did

Really never stops being depressing to watch leftist dudes who should know and be better continue to fail when it comes to misogyny There is no way to build the society we want if you continue to be a sexist trash

Okay I love this

BookPage. BOOKPAGE. The publication library users can pick up for free from a rack of 'em in entryways of public libraries. Hernando County, Florida, heard complaints saying it "pushes an agenda." OF READING, SURE. Now patrons can't get print copies. www.tampabaybeacons.com/2026/07/06/c...

Believe Women is an epistemological stance. It doesn't mean you assume that every single woman is telling the truth and women never lie. It means you understand that in the system that we exist in, there's much more risk and pain for women coming forward about abuse than there is anything to gain.

Once again wondering how the onion survives in this environment

4 - 1, lol welp

I'll spoil it for you bc this is kind of a gross framing: her brother died of suicide. she was going through some fucking shit. she ultimately decided that she's actually more comfortable working in an indie space and that Kelly Thompson is fantastic in the role in a way she didn't feel she would be

I hope that the survivor has a soft place to land with lots of support.

Reminder: we are war crime-ing Cuba right now because Trump and Rubio want to collapse their government. Not a major part of the media discourse but it should be.

the entire discourse about credibility is so gross. what happened to believing women

Absolutely embarrassing for Maine Democrats to be releasing this statement now and not over the Nazi tattoo. Those women all had to re-traumatize themselves and be cast as liars and villains by the worst misogynists of our nation bc you all decided Nazi tats were fine, actually. Disgraceful.

Also, she was hoping to hell the hundred other red flags would have been paid attention to rather than have to do this.

"It is not a coincidence that this story comes a week before the ballot deadline" correct, survivors often feel compelled to disclose when the men who harmed them are about to get a lot of power, that's not a conspiracy against the men, it's a rational fear turned action

"Don't sexually assault people" is not a purity test, it is an absolute hard line where you cannot be trusted, especially not with the power that comes with government office, what the fuck is wrong with some of y'all

Roses are red the reflecting pool is noxious

There is no place in government for people who assault others.

“Maine Democratic Party leadership is calling on Graham Platner to withdraw as the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate.”

Politico reports this afternoon that a woman who dated Graham Platner says that he sexually assaulted her: www.politico.com/news/2026/07...

Morbid to think about but my grandparents all passed in their 70s. They all lived physically harder lives than me, though chronic pain will surely have its due on my lifespan in the end. I suppose I should have a crisis now, since if the math holds I'm basically at the halfway mark...

"Man cannot be freed by the same injustice that enslaved it." Red Rising

So uh Is it a good sign for democracy if we have to speculate about an elected official being alive or not

No one wants to admit this, but it's TRUE. If you want to actually have savings and go on vacation once a year (NOT on a credit card), and have no debt, and an emergency fund ready for a job layoff, yes: this is what it takes.
