40+ is an arbitrary measure IMHO. A lot of older comedy movies simply don't hold up because their humor was rooted in racism and sexism. 9-to-5 holds up. It's fucking funnier now. So does Troop Beverly Hills. Many 80s teen comedies don't hold up because they have so much implied fucking rape.

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh but maybe I'm grumpier than usual because we're under a heat dome now (as is half the globe)

I expect Republicans to frame this as terrible, but wtf is Dem leadership doing? jfc

What level of “First they came for the ___” are we on?

omg this is so wholesome

This is REALLY important. “Over 50% of Americans say climate change is a serious threat; only 10% think their compatriots feel the same That perception gap on the issue is among the highest in the world, per a new Gallup poll.” They want you to think you’re alone. You’re not. #ClimateCrisis

We could have had Lina Khan

Earlier this month, the federal government moved the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services out of the purview of the Department of Education. Minnesota-based PACER Center said the move will have a negative impact on families.

"There needs to be immediate action by Congress to create pathways to residency for holders of this status, to intervene in the catastrophe that will unfold if over a million people are pushed into undocumented status, and quite possibly to their deaths," writes @hebagowayed.bsky.social.

we switched off Spotify when Rogan arrived and I know Tidal's not perfect but it's consistently a better alternative

Absolutely. For example, Trump obliterating USAID, the Dept of Education, and CFPB, plus arbitrarily refusing to pay appropriations to states, cities, and grant recipients, should all have been non-starters—but SCOTUS jumped in to make clear the laws passed by Congress don't matter.

It always comes back to Reconstruction. The secessionists and sympathizers should have been stripped of land and power and exiled. It would have happened had Lincoln lived. Not because he was a champion of equal rights but because he believed the evidence of his eyes. A trait few have shared since.

It's double digits probability of false positives, so OF COURSE cops want it. #ACAB

yeah, i mean the decision in USPS v. Konan earlier this year doesn't bode well. The Court said that the USPS is shielded from liability for both intentional and negligent mail loss under the Federal Tort Claims Act. i wrote about it here. rewirenewsgroup.com/2026/03/04/t...

A woman in Arkansas was seeking care for a life-threatening miscarriage. Under the state’s strict abortion ban, no doctor would treat her. “Our hands are tied behind our backs,” one doctor told her. “Tell your friends to vote differently.”

We need Reconstruction 2.0, a real one. All vestiges must be hunted down the way the Nazi hunts went.

Commentary: The tactics of civil resistance that proved so effective here — noisy yet peaceful, decentralized yet in their own way highly organized, intensely local yet visible all around the world — are attributes worth owning. minnesotareformer.com/2026/06/29/h...

FUCK. DEMS. FIX THIS.

The Supreme Court won't review the dismissal of Alan Dershowitz's defamation suit. Thomas, joined by Gorsuch, once again calls for the court to reconsider (and likely overrule) New York Times v. Sullivan, gutting First Amendment protections against libel suits. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

Nooooooooooo

President Donald Trump has signaled he may withdraw from an agreement that allows tariff-free trade with Canada and Mexico. Minnesota farmers now worry how their markets might change if the agreement ends.

6 years ago today Fox News helpfully distilled some of the demands of the Movement for Black Lives... Curious that they could figure out the demands but that white dude bros on the so called Left say that it's unclear... LOL

One of the most successful pedestrian streets in the world, the Strøget in Copenhagen, was filled with cars until a 2 year pedestrianization pilot project in 1962. The opposition argued “no cars means no business,” but the street has been a massive retail success, the city’s busiest shopping street.

i’m no fancy consultant or anything but this seems like a perfect time for dems to say “hey remember how we tried to cancel your student loans?”

We weren’t being hysterical. We knew this would happen. When Republicans passed the Big Ugly Bill and cut funding for health care, they literally signed away millions of Americans’ ability to afford health insurance. And now it’s happening.

Size and weight both

Geez. I've never wanted to visit NYC before, but now I just want to witness the Zohran of it all

The story of New York City is shaped by the story of its immigrant communities. Our Newest New Yorkers report explores the lives of the city's 3.1M immigrant residents — where they come from, the languages they speak, the neighborhoods they call home, and the communities they build every day.

I was honored to celebrate Vesak alongside Buddhist communities representing Bangladeshi, Nepali, Tibetan, and many other traditions in a first-of-its-kind gathering.

I’ve been marching for LGBTQ+ rights since Pride was considered a protest. And I’m proud to keep marching as a celebration of hope in our state today. The LGBTQ+ community has a proud ally in the Governor’s Office 365 days a year.

All ICE agents are cowardly terrorist criminals

And as you watch the Trump regime's sloppy, lame, politicized "celebrations" that have been thrown together at the last minute with duct tape, please understand Congress created a nonpartisan commission for 250 plans in 2016! I went to one of its first meetings, at DC's DAR hall, SEVEN YEARS AGO.

It sure would be nice if more Americans treated cars as a mode of transportation and not 1/3 of their personal identity.

I would like to know if this is just something ICE's NY field office has taken upon themselves to do, or if incidents like these are either happening or about to happen all over the country.

I think it is cool that a bunch of people are now committed to “Jamelle hates black people and loves gentrification” because I was trying to have a good faith conversation about how to improve low income black neighborhoods without displacement or gentrification.

this is a profound misreading of what i said here. which is that if you want to build new housing WITHOUT gentrification, you build it in places where rich people already live while providing amenities in places where low-income people live
