It's a good thing the hostages have been released, and I am hopeful that there can be lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians alike. There is significant work that needs to be done to rebuild Gaza in particular AND ensure a true two-state solution—that work is crucial.

Another snake oil scam by Republicans to stifle democracy.

So powerful.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

In the lead up to No Kings, we’re working with our partners on a number of Safety, Security, and De-escalation trainings. Sign up for an upcoming training, or catch up with the ones you’ve missed.

This is scary.

I’m here with @repstansbury.bsky.social fighting on Capitol Hill to protect federal workers. Don’t get it twisted – furloughed federal workers will get their backpay when this shutdown is over. It’s the law. We’ll continue to work together and end the Republican shutdown.

Oversight Democrats have one message for Speaker Johnson: Stop the Shutdown, Release the Files!

We’re thrilled to announce our very first endorsement: Rep. Aftyn Behn, the Democratic candidate running for Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District! #tennessee #election #endorsement #FYP #shutdown

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted “no one has died” as a result of U.S. foreign aid cuts. In Myanmar, the grieving father of a 2-year-old boy who died after their food rations were cut calls such claims a lie.

Agree with this 100%. Sick of subsidizing stupidity and poor policy decisions by red states. Let them fund their own bad decisions.

Last month Judge Diane Goodstein blocked Trump from getting your voting data in South Carolina — Today, her house explodes. I'm not jumping to conclusions but there's something mighty fishy 🐟 about this...

Love Cincinnati!

This. Is. Brilliant.

If you've been trying to figure out DSPy - the automatic prompt optimization system - this talk by @dbreunig.bsky.social is the clearest explanation I've seen yet, with a very useful real-world case study www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9Zt... My notes here: simonwillison.net/2025/Oct/4/d...

We are watching it in real time!

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress. Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights. But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

I do struggle with friends and family who are MAGA. A part of me wants to turn and walk away.

World’s largest washboard. Because, why not… in case you have a king size comforter to wash.

More people should be talking about this.

It’s amazing that she thinks anyone is buying this

High 70s in northeast Ohio for the next week. It’s been one heck of an Indian summer.

A little bit of cuteness for us 💕

SPOILER: A 2021 study found 15.6% of hate crimes were perpetrated by the far-left, while 84.4% were by the far-right. Of course, we already knew this. One could almost say this is an exclusive alt-right phenomenon. @dailykos.com www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

In a shocking on-air moment, a “Fox and Friends” co-host said homeless people suffering from mental health issues who refuse help should be killed

What is wrong with these people??????????? They should be fired. Fired. Fired. Monsters.

I mean…

Moore: I take real pride that when I look at my team, these are subject matter experts.. Trump doesn’t have that. He has sycophants who go into cabinet meetings and spend three and a half hours telling him how good he is instead of actually educating him

This is a person I mourn. Someone who was trying to do good in this world.

The asymmetrical media response to political violence in America is, in itself, one of the most important contributing factors to how we arrived at this place of escalating political violence.

Gene-edited pancreatic cells have been transplanted into a patient with type 1 diabetes for the first time. They produced insulin for months without the patient needing to take immunosuppressants. www.wired.com/story/no-mor...

She is 100% right.

No half mast for them. Not even an acknowledgement.
