You can’t make antivaxxers happy. You come up with a perfectly reasonable line of bullshit about aspirin and autism and they’re all like “but i wanted autism to be caused by diet soda and werewolves”

Demanding a “public debate” is a common antivax trope. In a true scientific debate, scientists publish their data & evidence to the scrutiny of their peers. RFK Jr’s #ACIP proved at their last meeting they lost their public debate. #CDC #science #Medsky www.statnews.com/2025/09/18/c...

(Bloomberg) - President Javier Milei temporarily scrapped export tariffs on all of Argentina’s crop cargoes in a bid to bring dollars into the country to shore up a market sell-off before a crucial midterm election. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Needed a reminder? There's still time to apply 😀

Good sign for the future of Bluesky: everyone woke up and went online to post about the quake

"4.7 earthquake hits Berkeley, city leaders propose indefinite moratorium on all new housing in response"

JUST IN: An earthquake of magnitude 4.6 jolted the San Francisco area awake shortly before 3 a.m. on Monday, according to the United States Geological Survey.

#QuakeSky assemble! How is everyone in on the east bay right now?

If you have extra money, keep it. Quit spending it. Grind this machine to a halt.

Jac Collinsworth: professionally redundant

Shut up Collinsworth.

One stark marker of how much our society has devolved in just a few years is Bob Iger personally got on a call to convince us to let Disney/HULU make the 1619 Project. That America no longer exists.

1. Bluesky doesn’t downrank links 2. You can choose your own algorithm from among thousands 3. The whole app is open source This keeps it a free and open platform by design, leading to better click-throughs and traffic to your site. We 💙 the open web.

BREAKING: The U.K., Canada and Australia officially recognize a Palestinian state, a significant shift away from alignment with the U.S.

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

Bob Iger should pull ESPN on ABC content from any ABC affiliates that refuse to air @jimmykimmel.com, or at the very least swap out the top-tier matchups with poker tournaments or some other bottom-dwelling stuff that would otherwise be relegated to ESPN3 or ESPNews programming #IStandWithKimmel

the revolution will not be televised (they canceled their subscriptions)

just saw a tiktok from a disney adult reading from On Tyranny and asking their followers to cancel their d+ and disney trips omg

“With a single post or video, we can influence thousands of guests to try a food, drink, or experience in the parks,” she says. “I couldn’t, in good conscience, keep giving them free publicity knowing they don’t support free speech and are willing to bow to fascism."

New from me: There's a lot of misinformation around the reasons I was fired from WaPo. Here's the official termination letter I got sent by Washington Post. Read and judge for yourself. open.substack.com/pub/karenatt...

Saving Disney is the reason Bob Iger came out of retirement, and he's letting it all slip away to appease a demented narcissist. What a weak, pathetic excuse for a leader.

International Women’s Media Foundation is reconsidering letting Bob Iger’s wife host their fundraiser 😭

dang, they lost the hulk, aunt may, and mr fantastic

End-stage Access Journalism:

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

Translation: Mass deportations -> economy collapses -> prices fall because people lose their jobs and demand for goods plummets

tl;dr to Bob Iger: DON'T BE SUCH A MOUSE

As chair of the Senate committee that oversees FCC, Ted Cruz could do something more about this than talk about it on his podcast www.dallasnews.com/news/politic...

None of them are attractive or even in that way that you could possibly see yourself thinking they're attractive. Stephen Miller looks like he eats mice but even if he had a full head of hair, he'd look like a guy that eats mice but he has hair this time.

The headshot is sending me. She's the Joan Didion of soliciting dick pics from people who want to outlaw rabies shots

LA folks: follow @wgawest.bsky.social for info

Sheinbaum: I didn’t say this in the meeting, Prime Minister Carney, but I’m saying it right now. We celebrate the constant growth of Canadian tourism in Mexico. We truly celebrate it because we have an increasingly growing number of families and visitors choosing Mexico as their tourist destination.

If you wrote a "Trump distances himself from project 2025" story in 2024 you are either a dupe or one of our enemies. They are cackling with laughter that the media they're now destroying enthusiastically helped them dupe the voters

If Democrats ever get power again there needs to be a proper reckoning. Criminals need to be indicted, prosecuted and convicted for trying to subvert our democracy and rights for Trump. There is no room for Merrick Garlands and milquetoast centrists anymore. You need accountability.

The last political column I was allowed to write in the @washingtonpost.com was a criticism of Obama. His people took issue with my piece, but we were respectful. Now he is tweeting in support of me. This is how free political speech and respect for debate *actually works*. Or used to work.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Disney sued the DeSantis administration and, in effect, the entire state of Florida into submission. They can absolutely afford to do the same with Nexstar, Sinclair, and the FCC.

Disney, a famously litigious corporation, should handle the Jimmy Kimmel situation the same way they handle every other legal matter: Nexstar and Sinclair for breach of contract until Kimmel is back on the air and sue the FCC into submission.

This is what I said to my wife and three kids who use Hulu and Disney+

Letterman on Kimmel and Colbert 🔥 "You can’t go around firing somebody because you’re fearful or trying to suck up to an authoritarian—a criminal—administration in the Oval Office. That’s just not how this works"

Oh nothing to see here…just Trump’s Chairman of the FCC using gifs to confirm that everything he’s doing was in Project 2025 that he co-wrote

Cancelling Disney+ and Hulu. Kids will be disappointed but they can deal and make (and fund) their own moral choices.
