Why are home prices so high?

…are people out here seriously not using alt text on the pictures of Stevie Wonder they're posting to wish Stevie Wonder happy birthday?

would anyone be interested in either something written or podcast about the great transgender migration that's going on right now that no one is really talking about. i feel like no one outside of the trans community knows about this at all

Trump on Iran War: Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal? Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation

Here. In something nobody asked for, I've written about national security films I think people should watch. What consitutes a national security film to me is entirely arbitrary and I'm not accepting feedback. othermeans.substack.com/p/blood-on-t...

BREAKING: Virginia Democratic legislative and executive leaders to the Virginia Supreme Court ruling to SCOTUS, seeking a stay of its ruling tossing out the redistricting referendum.

WHERE ARE THE TEARS FOR AVA CORDERO? You may have heard about the young trans woman who was raped by Jeffrey Epstein and then sued him. But you don't know what happened to her afterward. I do and her story appears in my latest column for Pride Source. pridesource.com/article/ava-...

Oh look: "An Iowa lobbyist was caught offering $100 cash payments—plus referral bonuses—to pack JD Vance’s Des Moines rally this week. The lobbyist works for an ethanol policy group whose top priority, E15 fuel, Vance championed from the stage." iowastartingline.com/news/politic...

Whatever he is, he's willing to fight dirty We need that

Deeply important movement media work is horribly under-supported.

"In a normal world, having an outside group pop up over & over to cry about how hard white men have it wouldn't be enough to spark investigations, but here we are. And since the process is confidential, we have no idea how many companies the govt is targeting based on letters from Miller’s law firm"

NEW: The plaintiff-candidates in Louisiana who sued in federal court after Landry’s election suspension are denied a request for a three-judge district court because they “do not raise a direct challenge to the apportionment of any congressional districts.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

@juddlegum.bsky.social Is this your work?

@justinwolfers.bsky.social Curious why you haven't posted your guest article for the New York times on here. That was the exact same work that @juddlegum.bsky.social did

One reason Republicans are banning books and classes on race is because reading even one book about Jim Crow or Reconstruction makes it clear that they are hoping to reinstate segregation.

Pure joy Literally crying for these times

I read a letter from Olivia Andre when I visited Dilley. It was heartbreaking. After six months, a judge has finally ordered her to be released. Her family and allies like Ms. Rachel never gave up. Speaking out matters. Advocacy works.

As I've stated, Dems are idiots for not targeting unlikely voters

Second time the hand of God/flood has tried to stop a Southern state from redistricting

Anecdotal evidence of support dropping for Trump: The YouTube truck repair guys are not happy with the war with the increased diesel costs

Proud Data Center NIMBY here. Will NIMBY any and all data centers for the rest of my existence and raise my kids to do the same. I am racist and classist against data center scum

HELL YEAH!!! NO MORE NEWS!!!

Gas went up 60 cents a gallon in my town yesterday

Yesterday, our members chanted and marched through @propublica.org’s NYC office demanding a fair contract now. We delivered a stack of more than 4,000 petition signatures and 300 comments from our supporters to management.

My cat is like, this is the most scrumptious delicacy I have ever had, and it's just a dirty sock

Anyone remember the Purcell doctrine, saying courts shouldn't change electoral districts too close to the election because it might cause confusion? Remember how SCOTUS applied it six months ago to say it was already too late to invalidate the Texas districts? Funny how that didn't happen in Callais

Pumped my fist at this response to me joining @dahlialithwick.bsky.social to break down the Supreme Court's, well, breakdown, of the Voting Rights Act Everything is terrible but helping people understand is the first step in fighting back! shows.acast.com/amicus-with-...

good tweet

Happy May Day. They can’t kill us all.

This is the stupidity we are dealing with on the left. This is why we lose and fascism wins.

This is peak

The rich people of today only have two ideas: 1. Let’s kill everyone 2. I need a bunker so after we kill everyone I can emerge from underground, spread my wings like a peacock, and continue to be rich

Oscar Neebe was the only haymarket defendant who wasn't sentenced to death for the crime of working for an anarchist newspaper. He was also one of the only American-born defendants. He said to the court that he wished to be hanged alongside his comrades.

very few people care enough about this man to pay to see him but he’s still out there making viral clips because someone is paying to keep that machine churning out vile slop. 7000 subscribers aren’t keeping the studio lights on. but someone is!

Gov spending counts towards GDP, this post is pointing out that this recent 75% HDP jump is driven by Debt. Kinda like if congress got a credit card and maxed it out while claiming their income jumped 75%.

B of A is calling it “The Boom Loop” — a 75% boom in nominal GDP over seven years “as policymakers counter deglobalization, populism, inequality, with max govt spending (up 60% since 2020 and set to rise 15% in proposed FY27 budget) .. “.. only thing that breaks 2020s boom loop is bond collapse.”

With the reveal that post-Fox Tucker Carlson has 7.3k subscribers, reminder that *all* rightwing media is a miserable enormously unpopular and wildly unprofitable failure, only kept aloft via the largesse of a handful of billionaire pedophiles pumping them with endless amounts of cash.

My latest newsletter is about how the media defines "political violence" as something that happens exclusively to politicians, and ignores its primary victims: everyone else.
