Failed policy is destroying a beautiful place

Ok fine.

“Just as I come to know a thing it’s gone again.” A new poem by D. A. Powell. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2025/11/24/senescence-d-a-powell-poem

Could argue the misogyny Summers expressed both publicly while president of Harvard and in emails to Epstein says more about the culture at our most elite institutions than any of the frontpage freakouts over academia in the past few years but hey

If I’m McDaniel, I still don’t kick it. Stick to your principles

Big mistake letting the Dolphins offense (aka the Defense) have the ball first

If I’m the Commanders, I give the Dolphins the ball and let them drive to the 1.

Spain is going to impose a tariff on American football after this

The Toadie Party

Mike McDaniel trying to get fired. I respect it.

Now: Thousands of people in Charlotte have gathered to let Border Patrol & ICE know they’re not welcome here. We will not bow down in the face of Trump’s terror tactics. When our communities are under attack we stand up and fight back! 📆 Sun Nov 16 🕜 3:00-5:00 PM 📍Hygge (1026 Jay St, Charlotte) 🙏🏻

Video of a daycare raid in Chicago went viral last week, showing armed federal agents dragging a teacher from Rayito de Sol Spanish Immersion Early Learning Center as children watched in terror. To the families at the daycare, the scene was a show of force that shattered their sense of safety.

I still can't get over that a million Russians have died attacking Ukraine. Per Wikipedia that's about 4x as many US soldiers and allies died in the entirety of the Vietnam War. In 3 years.

I’ll just cancel

The White House says that key inflation and jobs data for October will “likely never” be released due to the government shutdown. The last time a shutdown delayed a jobs report was in October 2013, when the report was delayed by a few weeks.

It would be a good time for the NYT to have an ombudsman

turns out the emails we should have been reading in 2016 were from the NYT

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015 What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

Truly nothing the Times enjoys more than platforming a fascist

Still the best poem ever written

I am once again begging @faberbooks.bsky.social to have an international shipping option

"What these pundits are nudging us to do, ever so politely, is accept that women, in the main, are accustomed to being a little degraded, a little underpaid and ignored and dampened in their ambitions, in ways that men are not and never will be." www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Turns out it was negotiable

I want to stay in the country so I can fight authoritarianism with all my strength. I want to flee the country so I don't have to do it with the Democrats

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

The 8 Dems who voted against ACA are embracing eugenics. This decision will disproportionately harm disabled people. Many Disabled people have pre existing conditions & won’t be able to afford insurance. Many live in legislated poverty. Guess we aren’t dying fast enough for them

The fact that none of the 8 Dems are up for re-election in 2026 is a pretty good sign @schumer.senate.gov engineered the surrender

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

Trump getting booed at the Commanders game

First time watching Mendoza and now I understand why Dolphins fans want him. He’s Ryan Tannehill all over again

BREAKING: Gaza’s Health Ministry says over 69,000 Palestinians have been killed in the Israel-Hamas war so far.

I think this bag is fake. Hermes's flagship products are handsewn using a saddle stitch. A worker marks the leather using an awl and then threads two needles through from both sides. This results in a tight stitch with no holes between the stitches. The holes here suggest the bag was machine sewn.

About an hour after Ellis entered this injunction, a group of agents, including Bovino, drove away from a Southwest Side gas station where they were confronted by protestors, and fired a round of pepper balls at a sedan that pulled up alongside their vehicle, reports @chicagotribune.com

It’s been burned to ground before. Just saying.

Which one is more English?

If we go on strike, our union of 12,000 workers are calling on customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS. Sign our pledge to not cross a picket line and we'll send you local calls to action - nocontractnocoffee.org

"Rep. Mike Quigley, a Democrat representing Illinois, said ICE agents followed the teacher into the school 'without a warrant and abducted her in front of her students.'"

"All hot dog stands will be replaced with goat meat stands." hold up. tell me more about that

Bro, they need to print signs so he knows where to go. His brain has completely dissolved.

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

Should have given it to Dane

Spurs continuing to lead the world in devastatingly handsome players who score 90+ yard solo goals

Now suddenly everyone is Harry Kane

Xavi though, phew. Whatever role he’s in now he needs to be in every game

My kingdom for a striker

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members. At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.
