Stares in *SF mayor Lurie won’t tax billionaires in San Francisco so instead we’re cutting public transit*

Mamdani has demonstrated something that Democrats have largely forgotten. You can't just do good things for voters and expect to be rewarded for it. You have to tell them about it, over and over again. You have to advertise your work in office just as much as you did on the campaign to win it.

Self-induced Figma psychosis

who would play me in my biopic and why is it Jamie Pressly

Im all for innovation but some of the outputs from the Trader Joe’s kitchen aren’t god-honoring

Hair dye is gender affirming care and you should be able to buy it with HSA money Mamdani please respond

I'm completely obsessed with you, but it's chill.

The Donald J Trump and Jeffery Epstein Memorial Reading Room. Displays 3.5 million pages released and partially redacted Epstein files, printed and bound into 3,437 volumes. There are millions more pages missing that must be unredacted for the public to know their names! #TribecaNY

On the day the horseshoe crabs came.

Israeli attacks are intensifying in southern Lebanon, with 552 killed since the 'ceasefire' started on April 16.

Alabama House votes 75-29 (on party lines) to allow new primary elections if the courts allow the use of congressional and legislative maps previously ruled discriminatory. Protestors leaving the gallery chant “Vote Them Out” and sing “Ain’t Nobody Going To Turn Me Around.”

The Elizabeth Holmes + Jen Shah roles are for a buddy comedy in which they meet in prison and start a fraud scheme. The two gay boy roles are for a play at a sex party where they accidentally end up having a very deep conversation while they are … well you’ll just have to come to Play Space!

This new MUNA album omgggggg

Whats everyone reading right now? I finished Dungeon Crawler Carl last week. (I’m also reading Moby Dick but got to the halfway point and need a break.) So now Im re-reading this short, poetic gem I met in college. I’m listening to Dracula.

One of the arguments against AI is that the people & institutions trying to sell it to us have done so much harm in so many ways with so little conscience on so many other fronts. This AP piece is among the group netting the team including @garanceburke.bsky.social the Pulitzer.

yes youtu.be/7KpuGFm-mhM?...

🤣

Auditions for Play Space for these roles are on Saturday! We especially need actors for the two gay ones.

The NAACP is now suing the state of Tennessee!!!!! I love to see it!!! KEEP FIGHTING!!!!!! ⚖️🖤✊🏾

Wow. Chaos on the Tennessee House floor. Tennesseans yelling in the gallery and Democrats locking arms in one final stand, as Republicans vote to advance new congressional maps that will carve up the state’s only majority-Black congressional district.

I love bein gay because when I saw the Lauren Besoz Sánchez’s look I didn’t think “boring” I thought “she doesn't have the vernacular she thinks she possesses Somebody lied to her several times and told her that she was fly, hot and sexy and beautiful and she's nothing like that She's nothing of t—“

so much of my hatred for AI is that it’s affirming to a very specific type of guy I already hatred

spiders are so cool

You've got 24 hours left to bid on this 19th-century leech jar with handles made out of little leeches [furiously googling "do leeches have eyes???]. The paint looks like something you shouldn't keep within 50 feet of food or reproductive organs! www.liveauctioneers.com/item/2309083...

Time’s up for bad landlords Karan Singh & Rajmattie Persaud.

Here 8 of the 10 “turnkey” facilities ICE is looking to purchase outright from private prison firms according to multiple sources. These would be much harder to fight than the warehouses, and would be “immune” from state or county level legislation as federal enclaves.

The state legislature tried to make a 63 percent black city live with a statue honoring a slave trader, KKK leader, and convict lessor. Now they’re going to make sure Memphians are represented in Congress by someone who hates them, and is terrified to step foot in the city. (Or any city.)

Protesters are singing civil rights songs in the Tennessee Senate State and Local Government Committee.

This refusal to immediately release data files has been a frequent and serious problem with new maps from Republicans, who've often rammed maps through at lightning speed with little chance for the public to even assess them, let alone weigh in.

Ok. We all had our day to talk shit and be angry. But it's Wednesday now and I'd love to encourage the kidlit community to focus on our real fight. There are now 2 book banning bills introduced on the federal level. 7661, which we largely know about but now 2616, too. It's call your reps o'clock!

This is despicable. This is how authoritarian regimes behave.

Consistency is more important than anything else

A Harvard study just published estimates Elon Musk's destruction of USAID has already caused 600,000 deaths 2/3 of them children. That is his legacy in this world.

A limerick. Based on a true story.

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running. From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

Met gala thank you gay people

YUP. The Republican justices adopted a jaw-droppingly narrow view of Congress's constitutional authority to combat racism, in elections and beyond Callais is a massive red flag (leave it to Sam Alito to stitch a red flag out of black robes and white hoods) ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/alito...

My favorite thing to think is thoughts

If schools have money for AI, I'd rather they use that to pay teachers more
