Union baristas are calling on allies to STOP BUYING STARBUCKS if we go on ULP strike. If our communities stand with us in action, we can take back power from the billionaires & CEOs. nocontractnocoffee.org

AND HE WAS LIKE, BUT NOT MY FACE, RIGHT? AND I WAS LIKE WELL IT'S A FACE, SO

Fantastic! This should be good for another few GOTV events, put it on a loop and drive around the Connecticut suburbs with it blaring from a loudspeaker.

“Wall to wall coverage of salacious complaint that turns out to be baseless, followed by maybe a single brief story about the dismissal” happens all the time and it drives me nuts. www.vulture.com/article/tiff...

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

FDR would've felt incredibly vindicated by all of this. A core proposition of the New Deal was that the country's ruling class was incapable — at best — of defending the Constitution, and that it was up to a dissident vanguard of intellectuals, in conjunction with workers and farmers, to do it.

just realized i should have put a TERMINATOR 2 spoiler warning on this, management apologizes for the oversight

😬

Marya has had some great interviews with Ethan Hawke. He's a real interesting guy!

I'm so tired of being invited to Democrat "organizing event"s and "what's next" webinars and it's just an hour of hosts and guests saying AHHH IT'S SO HARD BUT WE CAN DO IT then asking for money the end.

​“I get emails from the New York State Democrats, and you look at the list of meetings, and all it is is fundraisers. There are no meetings. And who holds meetings? The Democratic Socialists of America holds meetings. The Working Families Party holds meetings. ”

lollllllllllllllllllllllllllllll sorry, let me be more professional, esp as a woman who has worked many years in male-dominated fields: LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

gotta give it to nancy pelosi for doing what no other dem born before 1960 wants to do (retire)

And this is what they call “the ole Chappaquiddick Farewell” in the Kennedy family, dude couldn’t help it, it’s in his blood.

I was going to try to catch up on this hearing but this seems like pretty much it. Still gonna drive some donations downtown tomorrow because even if he really does it, it's been a week without.

This is really impressive. They invented racism.

lmao I know my meds are working because I've only occasionally wondered why no one likes me anymore instead of unendingly

Sandwich Guy thanks everyone for their support, “emotional, spiritual, artistic or financial.” Intones, “Let us not forget that the great seal of the United States says…‘ out of many, one.’…You all have a right to live a life that is free.”

whatever reason someone needs or takes a drug is none of my business! more people should train their brain to believe this!

we deserve a footlong emoji

Ellis is concluding, with John Adams words to his wife in 1775 about the need to fight for the nascent American democracy. "Liberty once lost is lost forever."

Ellis: "It is difficult to see how an injunction ordering the government to comply with the Constitution can be harmful."

Ellis rules that the Trump administration impermissibly prevented the free exercise of religion, in violation of the First Amendment. Those engaged in prayer have been shot, without warning, with pepper balls and tear gas, Ellis says.

The Trump administration treated anti-ICE protestors worse because of the content of their speech, in violation of the First Amendment, Ellis says. In fact, the president and Secretary Noem have said exactly that, Ellis says.

Ellis rejects the DOJ's argument that plaintiffs are not protected by the First Amendment because they've "intermingled themselves with rioters." "The unlawful activity by a few protesters does not transform a peaceful assembly into an unlawful assembly," Ellis says

This whole thread is incredible

Being forced to set up my first passkey for "less complicated" and "less frustrating" "secure" logins and, not only does the process suck ass, it has told me it's successfully set up a passkey six different times but none of those passkeys work to log me in 😎

mini thread about how to ID if your Vyvanse generic is part of the Sun Pharma recall! asking if you were dispensed meds from the affected lots at the pharmacy you got it from should be your final check though!

compare to this to their very upbeat reaction to the 2021 elections

Had a few minutes where I wondered if I had a stroke this morning because suddenly the cursor on my laptop only moves in the opposite direction of the mouse

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

I don't really vibe with Prue on GBBO because of her (thankfully toned down at last) weird food shaming and fatphobia, but her saying everything tastes better with custard might be my final straw. Things that are supposed to have custard don't even all taste better with custard.

I did some digging and found actual imprint codes Sun Pharma uses on generic Vyvanse they're recalling! Why this isn't included in the recall notices, idk!! it's in section 3 here, make sure you double check w your pharmacy if yours are from the relevant lots!!! dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/dru...

“But I can eat this podium with a fork and fucking knife, I’m so angry.” oh, that is such a good line i am stealing it

my good friend jess needs some help with the ongoing complications from graft-vs-host disease, after her bone marrow transplant for acute myeloid leukemia she is a cool kid who enjoys soccer and books and f1 and lots of other cool things if you're able, her gfm is here: gofund.me/7acdc94a3

I think the coyote and roadrunner video was AI so I unreposted it!

I love that Mamdani is what the right claimed Obama was: A Muslim socialist born in Africa. The right practically manifested Mamdani into existence.

Loevy plays a video of a woman's arrest. Hewson says the woman was "assaultive" because she kicked a can of tear gas that had been deployed. Loevy: "When you tear gas somebody … and they try to kick the tear gas canister away from them, that's assaulting?" Hewson: "Yes."

"you don't need to want to work in government… in fact it's better if you don't. because you aren't gonna." this is amazing run to lose

Took the cats out for a walk with my brother and accidentally created a 90s Britpop album cover

They need to steal all the world's IP, and get all the world's money for free, to be successful at their business. They are geniuses.

in my heart I know that Lin-Manuel Miranda wants to play Zohran Mamdani on SNL so bad it physically hurts him
