We're also hiring for a YouTube-focused producer to adapt our longform investigative journalism into mid-length videos for the platform. All the details and application here:

The attacks on trans rights, which are basic human rights, are a terrible injustice and an attack on truth and fact as well. Everyone should be deeply alarmed and it should be disqualifying for a politician to support such discrimination.

Coming tomorrow in @revenuerulebreaker.com: what options do you have for healthcare in 2026 besides just paying more money??? @reywrites.bsky.social and I walk you through your options join.revenuerulebreaker.com

The EEOC, the main federal agency in charge of protecting American workers' rights, has abandoned trans, nonbinary, and other gender non-conforming workers, leaving them with little ability to get justice www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Every Democrat should be an ICE abolitionist. None of this “we all agree you need to come here legally” or “we all agree the immigration system needs reform.” Fuck focus groups and polls. Inform the public of these atrocities and shift the Overton window to a presumption of equality for everyone.

Increasingly tech is seeking to solve for the problem "humans exist," which is what you'd expect to see in a system where humans are seen as a cost and not a value.

She shouldn't have to keep doing this by herself. She is supposedly a member of a political party and every single one of her *colleagues* should be BLASTING the fascist in chief. ALL OF THEM. Where is the solidarity???

You will receive a lot of entreaties today, all of them worthy. I just want to bring your attention to Hope for Haiti, which does amazing work. My dad is on the board and one of the best things about HfH is that in the ground it is run by Haitians hopeforhaiti.com/givingtuesday/

Santa Fe is linking wages to rental prices — a first in the U.S. — as officials try to slow displacement with soaring housing costs

Commander White is one of the very few people involved in family separation from the inside who acquitted himself well. He raised alarm bells, pushed back, and got ORR to start tracking separations long before DHS did, so that it was possible later to reunite kids and know the scale.

When I see LLMs pitched as a guaranteed productivity tool for software engineering, the is the counterweight I keep trying to get people to seriously engage with and not handwave away is the future cost, and “oh everything tech gets cheaper” isn’t an answer. Services don’t and LLMs are a service.

“Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.” -Tom Stoppard

The star-nosed mole (Condylura cristata) is an evolutionary wonder with "stars for eyes". They're exceptional in so many ways: they're the fastest-eating mammals, they're just as comfortable in water as (under) the land, have exceptional nerve conduction & senses you don't have access to.

I’ve been consuming Tony’s coffee for 14+ years. Can’t go wrong here.

I dislike both selling stuff to make a living and self promotion, but there are bills to pay and my coffee is pretty dang good actually so perhaps more people should try it.

Happy Thanksgiving to my friend Lauren’s badass out of office message

This is such a bro-coded shitty defense.

"My mentor always tells me, 'Kim, dogs don’t bark at parked cars." They’re coming after critical race theory, 1619, intersectionality because these ideas mobilized people. They gave them the language to actually articulate what they were seeing with their own eyes," says Kimberlé Crenshaw.

My goodness, Baldwin could had written this last week.

I think Democrats should double down on trans rights now. It's obvious that most voters don't care about it so you might as well stick with your principles and goad Republicans into focusing on it at the expense of everything else so they're the ones who look like freaks.

There's enough money in the world to accelerate the phase out of fossil fuels. This is why governments should support the UN Tax Treaty. At #COP30, @sylvainaubry.bsky.social#COP30discusses the need for governments to finalize a UN Tax Treaty by 2027.

This, about AI, is so good on many levels, from the "they're taking revenge on artists" angle to the "do you really want to give THESE guys more power?" bit.

A reminder that I’ve archived every public-facing web page from the CDC website prior to the Trump Regime purging data back in late January: acasignups.net/cdc-website

Think about it, your house doesn’t have human rights… why should humans?!

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures

"How do I become a coach?" Our CEO @jerrycolonna.bsky.social gets this question constantly. His answer might surprise you. It's not about certifications or scaling, it's about presence, discipline, and a lifetime's work.

mr president sir theres a story coming about how you intervened to help a sex criminal. no sir, not that sex criminal you helped….no not that one either…sir, please stop guessing sex criminals that you helped. ill give you a hint sir, hes a trafficker. no sir, not that trafficker a different one

This is what guys like Yglesias, and everybody else making hay about Kamala supporting transition care in prisons, want to happen everywhere.

Most rapists operate on the premise that they can not only overpower the victim physically, but can do so socially and legally. They count on a system that discounts the voices of victims and only too often cooperates in silencing them...

Per CNN, Elizabeth Warren is calling on Harvard to cut ties with Larry Summers after Jeffrey Epstein's emails released last week by House Dems featured Summers making sexist comments + asking for Epstein’s romantic advice.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Turner Classic Movies is airing an 11-film exploration of trans identities in movies hosted by the authors of Corpses, Fools, & Monsters (great recent history of the topic) starting tomorrow at 8

"We seethe over the betrayal by a supposedly democratic society that quickly averts its collective eyes and allows predators ... to get away with it and reinvent themselves right in front of our eyes as we’re punished if we speak out about our basic rights to survival and safety," Donna Ladd wrote.

1/ I’d like to share what’s happened since Sept. 30, the night of the most dramatic raid of the Trump administration’s Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago. Under the cover of darkness, 37 immigrants were taken from an apartment complex …🧵

Please stop using language that suggests that people with criminal records are appropriate targets for this administration's violence. One in three adults has a criminal record. Stop playing sacrifice games with fascists. Stop surrendering entire categories of people in your own mind.

Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness. I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

why is no one replying to requests for comment you guys

These people are disgusting.

Note the class dynamics on display in both this and the Epstein story--these were wealthy men preying on girls made all the more vulnerable by their poverty

I’m hiring for a visual designer! Come work with me for a very cool org doing very cool work: grnh.se/943kjeba6us Some examples →

Let this sink in. The President of the United States is now appealing a court order forcing him to feed starving children.

Don’t think ppl understand the terror the Feds are unleashing on the streets of LA right now. Roving patrols targeting vulnerable individuals. It’s horrible. There’s no one coming to save us except ourselves.

Today in @thenation.com: thrilled to have @gbbranstetter.bsky.social on how this week's elections should bury once and for all the toxic myth that trans people are to blame for the Democratic Party's political failures www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Americans are so much more open to paradigm-shifting electoral reform than almost anyone in Washington understands
