im honored that my algorithm thinks i speak spanish

every time im lying on my heating pad (so 90% of the time) i feel like this

This is what they took from you

There's this very cool map that shows where and how the New Deal shaped the country. We had real ambition at one point livingnewdeal.org/map/

it's crazy making that the current jobs program that any level of government is pushing right now is either becoming a cop (state/local) or becoming an ice agent (federal). the people yearn to dig holes and fill them back up!

Every beautiful building in my hometown was a WPA project. The hiking trails I grew up on were all cut by the CCC. We could have had it all

I’ve found my way onto back pain TikTok and was watching a woman outline a similar history to me and then about three minutes into the video she said she cured her pain by “living in love”

Zohran bringing the fake newspaper is hilarious. Trump has the mental capacity of a 6 year old

Everyone loving the nyc snow shoveling jobs proves a candidate promoting a public works program would do fdr numbers. Because that’s why they were fdr numbers

Mamdani is working up to pulling the rust cohle move on him

Ok now that the pictures of him are very public can I say women who have been for years insisting that Pedro pascal is straight are a baffling subculture

i am concerned w them having a meeting today though - there's been more ice stuff happening here the last few days, makes me wonder if there's a plan for more

after speaking with zohran mamdani this afternoon, president trump announced that he will kill himself immediately

imagine having to suck up to trump while youre in the middle of a fast. requires superhuman willpower

mamdani shadow president

kiss the ring trump

i feel so bad for whoever ice lied to in order to gain access to the columbia building to kidnap that student

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

Nice AI-image-generating tool, but it will never be as great an artist as Onfim, a child who lived in the Novgorod Republic in the mid-1200s and who scribbled these drawings and schoolwork writings on birch bark at the age of 6 or 7.

I notice Sam Kriss has managed to do the full cycle from being Me Too'd and cast out of the british left and UK journalism, finding sporadic work in obscure trad/right wing blogs, then unherd/spectator, and now being brought into the fold of mainstream US journalism

The lie cheat and steal episode that came out today is about these accounts!

Coming from NY, Rikers Island has been a known scandal since forever. Everyone on every side of the debate acknowledges it. But nothing changes, despite a proposed closing date of 2027. If these camps go unchallenged and the new ones get built, we will never get rid of them.

i really can not emphasize enough that the most materially impactful thing you can do for trans people right now is hire them.

Back is so bad today I’m lying on the floor in the patient room at the doctor waiting for him lol

hahaha dueling FUCK DON CALLIS/FUCK ICE TOO chants now lol 🤼

Why the fuck does a driver's license need a sex marker on it in the first place

i cant stop thinking about that guy in buffalo who ice left to die on the freezing street

It’s finally over

It is very hard not to have a safe choice to use the bathroom in public. It may be impossible to continue living, working, eating, etc without a valid driver's license if your life was built around driving and the assumption that your license wouldn't be invalidated overnight by the legislature.

Cool and totally not cursed how starlight tours are a thing American cops are just openly doing now

Rest in peace, Nurul Shah Alam. His blood is on border patrol's hands. www.wivb.com/news/local-n...

Loopy Kath has indeed broken down today

i have podcasted about this!

we don't yet know why superintendent carvalho had his home raised, but just some context:

Its insane that claire is only a few thousand dollars short of reynoso despite her rejecting real estate money- we could actually get her matched today if you click this button and donate now secure.actblue.com/donate/cv22826

i ordered something for work 5 days ago and the company has sent me no less than 13 emails

"You missed me" When you're white and in Central Park, the NYPD will play along with your snowball fight. When you're brown and in Washington Square Park you get thrown to the ground, investigations begin, kids are called adults, and snow is called ice.

weird side effect of my back problems is that i have to sleep on my back which for me causes terrifying sleep paralysis hallucinations several times a week. thank you very cool

Beast mode

My bf made a roller coaster tycoon theme park in my honor and now we can’t stop saying this in trump voice

medical subreddits are a nightmare bc why would anyone post there if they recovered, but r/microdiscectomy only has like one complaint post for every five "it was fine" posts, unheard of numbers for medical problem reddits, makes me think i should do it

i dont think there should be so many nazi rapist pedophiles in the government

do i understand correctly that a couple days ago the president in some kind of fugue state hallucinated the idea that he was sending a hospital ship to greenland to treat an outbreak of some invented plague, and the governor of some state was like yes sir i am proud to be on this voyage with you

i will be in the podcast mines during the state of the union but if you wish to engage in self harm by viewing it i wish you a very 478 breathing exercises

remember the no kings diarrhea plane... that feels like a century ago

this is roughly the number of internally displaced peoples from conflict in Bangladesh or the Central African Republic. state governments, the White House, and their allies in the NYT have perpetrated a civil war-sized disaster on trans people in the US.

going through this back surgery stuff has really made the drama about gender related medical care seem so silly. doctors barely ever tell you what they think you should do about purely physical medical care let alone what gender you should be
