Make Congress take action and unmask ICE!

Brutal but effective public health messaging from New York Public Health. The CDC is compromised. They’re no longer a reliable source of information. They push anti-vaxx & anti-science grift. Get your vaccines. Wear a respirator. Clean the air Get public health advice from experts, not RFK Jr

🔬⚗️👩‍🔬 Science just found rare, medicinal compounds in cannabis. Most cannabis growers discard the plant’s leaves after harvest but new research suggests they might be throwing away chemical gold that might hold powerful therapeutic potential. www.cannabissciencetech.com/view/phenoli...

BREAKING: Seattle Children's Hospital successfully fought this summer to get DOJ's invasive trans care subpoena quashed. The Seattle court partially unsealed the case this week. This was the fourth, previously sealed case mentioned in this recent Law Dork report: www.lawdork.com/p/judges-doj...

Another mass shooting, this time at Brown. 2 dead, 8 injured. MAGA & Corporate media waiting to ID the shooter but we know the drill •Immigrant—> Expand ICE •Muslim—> Expand Muslim ban •Black—> Expand prisons & police •White—> Troubled lone wolf with rough childhood And still 0 action on gun safety

I visited China in 2010 & many bars/restaurants had one huge restroom that was multi-gender and everyone waited for individual stalls to open up. Some stalls were Women Only (because Men are messy pigs) but most were for anyone who queued up. Their society has somehow held together.

this joke plagues transphobes because it’s an incredibly cutting take on what the modern transphobic panic is, a hysterical panic based off of a lie that transness is fake and that there is an intentional effort from the right to prop up this wedge to destroy all LGBTQ rights

related to this a lot of people in the pundit class need to learn how to just be annoyed by someone or something without turning it into What’s Wrong With America

LOL, I certainly fall into this category! 😂 Just applied for a job and thought about toning it down--- for about a millisecond. Sorry HR peeps, it's kind of my brand these days! 😊

I knew that the Firehouse Sliding Pole was invented in Chicago but not the backstory: www.chicagotribune.com/2022/02/24/i...

Pre-Code films are a window into an astonishingly modern world. Queer people have always been part of America, but we were actively erased from its face for half a century.

Best news of the day and a real sign of AI progress.

Back when I was a teen the catchphrase in my high school was "Do Bongs!" so I really can't get on a High Horse. 😆

"Okay but do you have any proof it was Manute's? I feel like this could've been anyone's warm-up."

NEW: Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser (D) says Colorado will not release Tina Peters after President Trump announced he is pardoning her state-level convictions. "This is a lawless act. It's an act of intimidation," Weiser said. "It has no basis in the American law."

All press is good press?

These ridiculous mega-projects like "datacenters in space" (doomed by thermodynamics) make a LOT more sense when you realize they're massive Ponzi schemes designed to transfer wealth from pension funds to VC's through "fee stacking." It's the old Assets Under Management con. It should be illegal.

As of today, the only person in this Daily Penn visual that hasn't been fined millions of dollars or convicted of a felony is Luigi Mangione, believe it or not

The Heritage Foundation is cracking

The thing that always gets me about these stories is that the parents seem to honestly believe they *own* their children. Then when their children grow up, they're absolutely baffled as to why those kids want nothing to do with them anymore.

Wisconsin Dems are continuing to show some starch in their spines and Repubs back down on their recent initiative against Abortion Medication! I especially like how the Dems stress the creepiness of the anti-choice movement. www.wispolitics.com/2025/state-s...

She’s getting absolutely SMOKED. Good.

New from me: Whooping cough cases are skyrocketing, but CDC is silent—plus the agency's new second-in-command is the former Louisiana surgeon general, a vaccine critic who waited till two babies died of whooping cough to sent out an alert to his state. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

It's only piracy if it comes from the piracy region of Somalia, otherwise it's just sparkling Privateering

I know we’ve been talking about the 25th Amendment being invoked for years now, but we should probably be talking about it a lot more and a lot more seriously right now.

This rendering of Earth with all the surface water gathered (big drop is the oceans, small one lakes and rivers) shows us that we're all riding a spinning tilting pebble. On December 21 at 9:03 AM CST, the pebble will hit the highest point of its upward wobble and begin dipping downward.

Just heard disappointing news that @warren.senate.gov will co-sponsor the Kids Online Safety Act again despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ, human rights, abortion rights, and racial justice groups. This is a horrific betrayal of her constituents, particularly trans youth and their families.

are we still on about em dashes and ai. imo human writers should just use the em dashes even harder. we should be out here pummeling out those em dashes like we're emily dickinson

BREAKING: Albuquerque's Democratic Mayor Tim Keller has won his reelection bid. Immigration emerged as one key contrast in this race. Keller earlier this year issued an executive order limiting local collaboration with ICE, while challenger Darren White said he'd roll it back.

Oh right

"Elon’s entire incoherent free speech framework collapses into a single coherent principle: speech I like is protected, speech I don’t like should be punished. This is what happens when someone who never understood the actual principles of free speech tries to cosplay as a free speech absolutist."

If you think Paramount is just trying to buy Warner Brothers so Ellison can stop CNN from criticizing Trump… you’re right! www.wsj.com/business/med...

OK, seriously. This is wild. Judge Jay Bybee (1) raises a new issue — the Domestic Violence Clause of the Constitution — to consider in the troop deployment cases; (2) extensively details its historical application;

So nice to read a peaceful news story about a sunken ship discovered where they suspected another sunken ship was resting. www.popularmechanics.com/science/arch...

each of us contains the full genetic instructions for both testosterone & estrogen driven hormone loadouts (along with varying combos of both) this can be changed at any time. our genes will even start expressing themselves differently within ~3-6 months. this is an existential threat to fascists.

Seems pretty clear this is meant to bait Democrats into voting against this. It also includes a ban on "Administering, prescribing, or dis2 pensing to an individual medications" including testosterone and puberty blocking drugs. www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/do...
