RFK Jr. peeling out of the meeting like he can't remember whether he's the one who sold that guy the heroin.

Glad to pay for the welfare of ALL!! ALL!! Not okay with bitter, hateful bigots taking our money and then trying to arrest, jail and kill us for having it in the first place. BTW - I worked hard for that money. We paid taxes to help YOU and ALL who live here in this beautiful land. #TAXStrike

I do believe NYC Mamdani may have single handedly ended the use Trans panic by any and every Democratic candidate for national office. No more trans bashing. Nope.

"Running list of German support organizations for your kit bags," said a US Army website in Germany about the government shutdown. It was a list of local food banks

This is brillllliant!

If you run into any problems or have questions when casting your vote today, call the Election Protection Hotline.

Talking to the 5-year-old about the election tomorrow has backfired spectacularly because she asked if she gets to vote, and I explained to her that she needed to be 18, and she is now crying and vigorously arguing that you should be allowed to vote “whatever age you are”

Queer History, written in the personal ads: @susiebright.bsky.social  writes about the personal ads for queer women in the zine "On Our Backs." They were groundbreaking, allowing queer women to reach out and state their desires openly.

The reason 42 million Americans are on SNAP is because employers aren’t paying living wages.

Wow! It’s not even close. Food banks can’t keep up with the need… Question: “How long is this sustainable.” Food bank director: “It’s not… for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

Must I Hammer It In? I got to talk to the two smartest tool-dudes in the world, @Mark Frauenfelder and @Kevin Kelly about the four tools I can’t live without. Yes, the Hitachi Magic Wand is right in there. But the others may surprise… susiebright.ink/p/susie-talk...

This is so clarifying. Cory is in the fourth dimension. Now everything makes sense. Thank you for this!

I'm curious to know if they were just shotgunning the theft, hoping to get something valuable, or if there was a single item targeted and everything else was stolen just to cover that up.

Many of you, I know, receive a lot of national news, but care a lot about local. You also hate paywalls. If that's you read this detailed story. "The Salt Lake Tribune, preparing to drop its paywall, launches a free, monthly print newspaper for Southern Utah." www.niemanlab.org/2025/10/the-...

Right? When there literally is no publishing venue for a million out dykes (& several million more aware of themselves who might publish under a pseudonym), what you have is a huge talent pool w no outlet for some of their most important thoughts and feelings. Great talent among them is inevitable.

Interview with David Cronenberg back in the day but oh so current. Details on JG Ballard and CRASH. You will not believe how much was autobiographical. Meanwhile, DC’s “history of violence” has been re-released on Criterion with outstanding special features. susiebright.ink/p/susie-inte...

As news that the University of Mississippi had fired Lauren Stokes for sharing a post criticizing Charlie Kirk spread, she and her husband had to close their restaurant and flee Oxford for two weeks amid a wave of threats, the lawsuit says.

At least now I don’t have to wonder any more what it would have looked like if a terrorist had crashed a small passenger jet into the East Wing.

We’ve received a lot of questions about Trump’s demolition of the White House East Wing. Here’s how the process is supposed to work:

I have to stress how highly unusual it is for the most powerful military on the planet to be blowing up random boats in international waters. I can’t help but feel that several criminal charges will ultimately come from these strikes. It makes far more sense to interdict them.

Don't. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers (or online). "alleged drug vessel" Call it a boat. A vessel. Anything that you can actually prove. There is exactly zero reason now, at the eighth instance, to use the administration's preferred language, without any evidence.

I shouldn’t have to have someone interpret tattoos on a half naked white man sitting for an interview before we all agree this is absolutely absurd and we all need to just move on from this guy. You cannot expect Black or Jewish people to put with this fucking ridiculous nonsense. Come on now

Over 200 people in Hernando, Mississippi, showed up for a No Kings protest against the Trump administration on Saturday, Oct. 18. Here are some photos of those who showed up and the protest signs they carried. buff.ly/0tOXy6r

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

Trump's White House demolition is "the encapsulation of what Trump is doing to the presidency and what he is attempting to do to the country." Read @monacharen.bsky.social on that today: www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-mar-...

These costs are sucking chest wounds to the average American, and will be impossible to weather. This, alongside the AI bubble, the housing market bubble, the loss of jobs, encroaching inflation, and every other batshit thing Trump does, will lend itself to a cataclysmic cascading failure.
