Our economic system doesn’t work if 37% of people on food assistance are working full time. These companies are exploiting and stealing from their workers.

One of my favorite Douglas Adams quotes: “All opinions are not equal. Some are a very great deal more robust, sophisticated, and well supported in logic and argument than others.” More timely today than ever, don't you think? 💙 #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky

The NYT and the Washington Post are simply ignoring the rapidly growing constitutional crisis in the White House. Almost nothing in their news coverage or opinion sections. They are as culpable as anyone in this.

What a great headline

good morning thanksgiving! i'm leading off our long day of fresh new radio and it starts now! uncertain.fm

some live morning radio for you this Tday from @senatorjohn.bsky.social on @uncertain.fm 📻 🦃

This is wonderful news, and also means it’s time for me to beat the drum I always do when HPV vaccines make the news: They are not only for women! HPV also causes penile, anal, and head and neck cancers. The latter are particularly deadly. Please vaccinate ALL your children.

The problem with ICE is not that it's targeting people who aren't criminals. The problem with ICE is that it's an unaccountable secret deportation police. It cannot be reformed under a better president. It can be made less terrible, but the instrument of repression remains for the next tyrant.

This is true. It is the best email I got this year.

i can get behind this

You could just say he’s wrong, and his wrongness has consequences for all of us “Determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy” fuck you

This image. A government agent in camouflage using a gun to shatter the glass of a car window to abduct the people in it. Daylight. Public. Not some other country — right here in the United States. We shouldn’t become numb to the horror of what this is.

Extremely rare White Auroras like never before spotted in the skies of Alaska last night👀 🌌✨

My favorite piece of content today.

these are some messed up times

"Didn’t anyone ever teach you manners? Were you raised in a barn, piggy? Our guest came all the way from Camp Crystal Lake. Traffic was a nightmare, but he showed up anyway."

Mitochondria being the powerhouse of the cell is cool and all but I think classes like "How to calm the fuck down as an adult in a healthy non self-destructive way 101" is something that should also be taught before graduation

TEN MONTHS IN: The national debt is higher. The trade deficit is wider. The inflation rate has worsened. The unemployment rate is up.

the amount of rage coursing through my veins with these bilge slime... i was lucky to receive $100k in state loan repayment when starting out after NP school. that $$ allowed me to stay at a FQHC, build a career, become a leader in my field, and provide legit measurable benefits to my pts and org

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott. From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

"He's not a Nazi or a bigot... he just supports Trump for a few of his policies, but not all of them." (said by family members of MAGA). Really? Which policy exactly? Name a single Trump policy that doesn't instantly make you a huge pile of shit for supporting it. Evil is evil. All MAGAs are evil.

guess how excited i am today to no longer work at fenway park and spend 81+ days staring at the signs on the green monster

Swedish Deputy PM: Sweden needs to pick its friends wisely, and we are choosing Canada… So when we come to America, we come to Canada now.

KEEP SHARING YOUR STORIES about increased ACA premiums due to the disappearance of subsidies. The stories clearly are having an impact, they help people feel less helpless, and they create solidarity that leads to action. Mine went from $395→ $821. What happened for you?

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

This keeps happening. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Trump is welcoming MBS, the Saudi crown prince, to the White House. This is the dictator who had a U.S. columnist murdered for criticizing the Saudi royal family. Sadly, we have a president who prefers the Saudi model — an autocracy run by a trillionaire family — to democracy.

instead of health insurance we should be able to buy HealthGems™ ($99 - BEST DEAL) which can be redeemed for a HealthDrop™ and 1 in every 10000 HealthDrop™s lets you get a free MRI or one month of a drug that keeps you from dying

“Visibility is vulnerability. You should not be helping to build tools that can be used against you.” Insight from @lizchiarello.bsky.social during today’s #AMERSA2025 discourse on PMPs. She explores the impact of this “Trojan horse technology” in her 2024 book, which I highly recommend!

so cool!

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

The Epstein files are clearly more damning than we assumed, which is saying something.

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

Instead of funneling endless amounts of money into our bloated Pentagon budget while thousands of veterans face homelessness and hunger, let’s use those funds to truly take care of our veterans — ensuring every one has a home, food, and access to medical and mental health care.

"The average voter believes a SNAP recipient gets $20/day, more than 3 times the actual amount of $6."

Speaker Mike Johnson says our House of Representatives will be closed again next week. They have been out of session for almost 2 months! And unlike federal workers, they are still getting paid! 

Murdering humans in the Caribbean Sea. Risking starvation of tens of millions of Americans. Urging abusive federal agents to use deadly force. Can Americans agree to never again elect a man who could not care less about human life, except for his own?

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.
