New: Late last night, Taylor Farms quietly posted an official recall notice We now know that the parasite-linked iceberg lettuce was shipped to Walmart & food distributors in 27 (!) states It was for some reason still being sent out up until Thursday July 16 www.consumerreports.org/health/food-...

I had the best time last night hunting scorpions with my brother, sister in law, and my niece and nephew. I’ve never done it before, but their town had a community education event led by wildlife education volunteers and it was so fun!

After the EHRC said "sex questioning" would be "rare and exceptional", Aliyy Azad Malik shares the reality Trans+ people are already facing

Not only do we stand by our reporting. Madison Square Garden’s ridiculous lawsuit actually confirms it, noting the company did, in fact, track the sexual orientation of LGBTQIA celebrities in its talent database.

The ongoing failure to mobilize for trans rights and access to care has brought us here directly. If you’re fine with rights and dignity being taken from any minority then you’re fine with your own rights and dignity being taken away from you.

I think that someone thinks there’s a ticking clock on his window to engage in absolute lawlessness and I hope that he’s living in pants-shitting fear of consequences every minute of every day.

I built a tool to help people write their comments easily. bsky.app/profile/drru...

That means TODAY! Do it! It's not that hard and science will love you for it (and the love of science is a glorious thing).

Good morning. Today is the LAST DAY to comment on the proposed OMB rule that will, honestly, destroy science in the US. And it will do FAR MORE THAN THAT. www.theverge.com/science/9576...

Hey, a good way to celebrate Lindsey Graham kicking the bucket is to contact your senators about KOSA and the KIDS Act. Graham was a big proponent of these kinds of laws, as well as of gutting section 230.

Inexcusably rude that Mitch McConnell hasn’t issued a statement about the death of Lindsay Graham.

Lindsay Graham and I often disagreed on whether you should overturn Democratic elections, starve the hungry, bomb anyone and bomb everyone dark, but nevertheless I hope his loved ones stay off the internet and the rest of you have some fun.

The Hobbit has been my favorite book since I read it when I was 10 years old. People should read whatever makes them happy and whenever in life it makes them happy. But you can’t project your lack of comprehension on works as a whole.

The last colleague I disliked who died after leaving our employer was a bitter, awful man who wielded what little power he had in a way that was intended to make others feel small and stupid. He was mean and territorial and no one was sad when he left. My reaction to hearing he’d died was “Oh.” 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lindsey Graham has died. He was survived by no-one; his life had no meaning. He was 71.

Just saying that outliving the people you hate feels pretty good actually and we could all do with some more of it

Oh he checking

Monday is the deadline for public comment! The Heritage Foundation has been mobilizing its members to leave comments in favor of the rule change, so every unique comment matters (don’t use a form letter or copy/paste—similar comments are batched and treated as one).

We all have to post as hard as possible about Lindsey Graham's death so we can see who wins by getting cited in an article in the Atlantic about how Bluesky is destroying the fabric of American politics next week.

Imagine being the intern today who has to remind the President who Lindsay Graham is

RFK Jr spotted dumping Lindsey Graham's carcass in Central Park

Waking up to Lindsey Graham being dead is like waking up on christmas morning to a sega saturn when you wanted a nintendo 64

Stopped my run and had a 20 minute conversation with Mitch McConnell about how Lindsey Graham sucked and hes glad the guy is dead. Unlike him. Mitch McConnell.

if Lindsey Graham tweets that he just had a 20 minute phone call with Mitch McConnell, you know what, I’d believe him

RIP Lindsey Graham. You taught me it was okay to be a coward whose only skill is debasing myself until death for a tiny, ultimately illusionary crumb of power.

When a politician dies we see a lot of hagiographies about them. If you mention they were a terrible person IRL, you get chastised. My feeling? If you don't want people to talk shit about you after you die, don't be shitty when you're alive.

It’s like when your food is taking a long time to come out so your server brings some free bread to apologize for the wait.

Rot in fucking oblivion, Lindsay Graham. Hopefully you have company soon.

GOOD MORNING TO EVERYONE EXCEPT LINDSAY GRAHAM LMFAO

humans should be able to loaf like cats do like i bet this is sooo comfy

Bullshitting is a valuable skill and I’m being 100% serious.

GET IN THE EVA, MITCH!!

This is my favorite thing I've written for @mcsweeneys.net in a while. Hope you folks enjoy it! I think the headline pretty much clears up what it's about.

motherfucker spent like 9 minutes of an 11 minute video blaming “the Democratic establishment” for his own actions which made him manifestly unfit to serve. It’s always someone else’s fault with these guys I don’t want people like this in our progressive movement good riddance, go away forever

If men want to rally around a cause for male victims, unregulated online sports betting is a pretty big one. These people are having their lives ruined for profit, and the overwhelming majority of them are men.

BRING 👏 BACK 👏 BOOK-IT 👏 FOR 👏 ADULTS

One thing I don’t think men understand is that rape and assault are so ubiquitous—and so perpetually immune from consequence or recognition—that many women learn to talk about these incidents as of they’re mere inconveniences. We are not allowed to treat them with more gravity.

If I were Gov. Beshear, I’d make a statement tomorrow morning announcing that given the evident incapacity of Senator McConnell to fulfill his duties to the people of Kentucky, a special election to fill his seat will be held on 28 July unless the Senator presents himself in person to contest it.

It’s 76 degrees in my house and this creature wants to sit on me (No foot pics for free!)

It is the left, though. Being aligned with leftist policies doesn’t automatically make you anti-racist or pro-woman or an ally. You would think that it should, but it doesn’t. For fuck’s sake, we were talking about Cesar Chavez just a few months ago.

“Switching horses mid race makes us look weak.” No, trying to run people who can’t or shouldn’t do the job MAKES us weak.

Imagine bragging about speaking to Mitch McConnell

I know everything is bad and embarrassing, but this is really bad and embarrassing

"There’s simply no way any of us could have predicted a Nazi SS guy with his eyeballs dangling out of his sockets and the Staff of Ra broiled into his flesh like grill marks on a meat slab would be such a terrible candidate for Senate."

DOGE officially ended over the weekend. One of its crowning achievements was cutting $15M from the federal government’s screwworm monitoring program. Now, the Trump administration is preparing to spend $1B to combat the screwworm outbreak. "Efficiency."
