6 years of research: "The only trait that consistently predicted objections to remote work was narcissism—the tendency to be self-centered & entitled. The higher the opinions of themselves leaders expressed, the more they coveted power and status—& the more they favored return-to-office mandates."

Engraving “the last argument of middle management” on my cannonballs

When the govt of a nation founded on religious liberty has been taken over by Christian Nationalists, abusing state power to impose their anti-Constitutional vision, I’d like an opposition party leader to speak the truth about history instead of adopting the Cristian Nationalists’ preferred fiction.

I think this might be one of the most incredible, unsettling and symbolic photos of today’s America I’ve ever seen. I can’t stop looking at it. From Reuters, published on the Guardian website.

Haagen-Dazs Carrot Cake Passion (1992-1994): Carrot cake-flavored ice cream, loaded with chunks of real carrot cake, roasted pecans, and a cream cheese frosting swirl. Part of the debuting "Extraas" line of loaded, chunky ice creams, it was the first to be discontinued, due to negative reviews

Thousands of people lost coverage over as little as $8 in delinquent payments. They didn't know their zero-dollar premiums had gone up and they owed money. Most now can't get coverage until 2027. n.pr/4b83NWk

A broadside assault on truth that must be taken seriously. This administration wants to replace independent scholarship and curation with propaganda and Prager U. drivel. The Kennedy Center was bad enough. This is worse.

Strange. I rarely hear the news talking about fascism or kleptocracy, the real threats we’re currently facing.

Also white people, you're all white now. Congrats on your position of dominance. But a few of you need to connect with how your own European ancestors were treated as immigrants to this country as you fight for immigrants now. Irish? Italians? You were shitted on as other & fought hard to be white.

No one is emphasizing to nonlawyers enough that the pace ay which this Supreme Court is changing the law has never been seen before in US history, and all of the history of common law for that matter

Yesterday we had a hot day, 95°F with heat index over 100, I ran some errands and on my way home, saw an unhoused woman passed out on the sidewalk. Decided to stop, as most people just walked around her. Unresponsive, decided to call paramedics because of risk of heat stroke.

For most of us, seeing the Klan 2.0, a.k.a. Patriot Front, march through Washington, D.C., unchallenged by authorities overshadowed any celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. My ancestors lived through this. And no one today can say with a straight face that racism is behind us.

Grassroots canvassers are hitting the streets to urge voters to defend abortion rights in their states this November. It'll be on the ballot in Idaho, Nevada, and Virginia. I covered how we got here 👇

RESPECT Every politician should be doing this. Mayor Coffman has spent every Friday night since February sleeping at Aurora, Colorado’s homeless center, serving breakfast in the morning, and learning firsthand what works and what doesn’t.

This is why so many of our events at Kapow are art projects and movie nights and hanging out outside! Also free! Enrichment + entertainment are necessities for human wellbeing, but they’re entirely unaffordable. Effective organizing rn means also meeting people’s needs — from food to socialization.

I cannot believe a few guys making bets on a prediction market are driving some news coverage at CNN and CNBC. It’s clearly info slop, not news. This piece by @atrupar.com & @juddlegum.bsky.social reveals how truly bad it is & how viewers are being misled. Yikes. open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...

The death of metaphor means the guy who wanted to live forever is dying of literal self-absorption, living in some wishmaster ass times

UPDATE: CNBC responds, says it only includes the disclosure of their financial relationship with Kalshi when it is "directly relevant to the story" These are examples of stories where CNBC determined it wasn't "relevant" to disclose that the company invests in Kalshi and gets paid for new customers

If nothing else, I am sincerely hoping that this era ends the dangerous misconception that being rich = being smart. These men. are. idiots. And the Big Tech era seems to have exacerbated it; a uniquely special brand of delusional fanatic grows in Silicon Valley like weeds.

I see a lot of people asking "where do you even go when this many people lose their jobs at once?" the answer is that a lot of people leave an industry entirely, which is the whole point of seismic level layoffs in any field: the executive class wants their workforce to remain arbitrary deskilled

1. Since December, CNN and CNBC have promoted Kalshi to viewers extensively, frequently vouching for its accuracy. The existence of a financial relationship between the networks and Kalshi, however, is disclosed to viewers inconsistently. w/@atrupar.com

NEW: The ICE office that customarily probes employee misconduct is being refocused to investigate ICE critics, opening hundreds of "doxing and threat" cases and subpoenaing tech companies to unmask anonymous posters. Detention facility inspections, meanwhile, are plummeting. by @regret.bsky.social

Run on this! It's a real thing! People want to hang out IRL but hanging out IRL is too expensive.

That "Family Income" graphic rocketing around bsky today is an engagement-bait PR exercise from a company that makes its money through lead generation for financial advisors.

Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has vowed to wrest control of the ancient Solomon’s Pools site from the Palestinian Authority. Palestinians are responding by reclaiming the site and resisting Israeli efforts to seize more of the West Bank. mondoweiss.net/2026/06/pale...

The bot armies are working overtime attacking any mention of that Reuter photo of patriot front on the metro. Usually these things indicate where the regime thinks they’re vulnerable. Something about that photo has made them cagey.

It’s been six months since the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Here is how the federal government has stonewalled investigations, and how Minnesota law enforcement is attempting to push for accountability anyway

A man who publicly was doing something which, when done wrong, can cause graft-vs-host disease, an autoimmune disease which can attack, among other things, your GI tract, now has an autoimmune disease which is attacking his GI tract. What a coincidence.

I'm a Culture Pass evangelist and I am always so surprised at the number of people who are unaware that they can access this with a library card.

data visualization is my passion.

made this at the airport today if you were sitting behind me please dont tell

The amount of executive function it takes to function is displeasing me & my homegirls.

Another excellent video. You can't always tell.

Oh god he is going to demand gratitude from a man whose citizenship he tried to take.

it’ll be difficult to demand proof of life for mitch mcconnell after congress just let a republican congressman disappear for four months during which no one had any idea if he was alive

Hey @chicagotribune.com Editorial Board: Why did you describe me as a “bomb-throwing influencer”? This is wrong, inflammatory, and racist. Change it. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/07/05/e...

Ha ha I hate it here

Man, it is way past time to rethink the whole fireworks thing.

Because you’re lying

this guy is the co-founder of Airbnb

A Code Purple air quality alert is in effect for DC, and residents are advised to limit time outdoors

“The company has positioned itself at the intersection of luxury wellness, self-optimization, and the normalization of bringing surveillance technology into your most intimate spaces.” 😬

"Raul" harvests tomatoes at Gargiulo and is excited about his new 3 year UFW contract. He'll earn $0.90 per 25lb bucket for first-pick round tomatoes, a 4-cent increase from last season. Based on average production he might earn around $1.50 more per hour. #WeFeedYou

The “vibe shift” proclaimed Nov. 2024 - Jan. 2025 was just some elites—in business, media, law, and some higher ed admins—who kinda liked the fascism and gave themselves permission to accommodate it. That’s all it ever was. A close presidential election is not somehow a binding cultural referendum.
