I feel like I say this every year but I really need people to hear it. Halloween is the best American holiday. Just kids outside welcomed into their world, marching around together, showing off their costumes to the elderly, parents meeting parents, neighbors catching up with neighbors.

• Texas judges can now refuse same-sex weddings.
• Our cattle raisers + soybean producers are getting squeezed while Argentina cashes in.
• Abbott & Patrick = silent.

Tonight at the @udemstx.com, I said: count on me to fight for every Texan!

Disabled people don’t just exist off-peak. Our freedom to travel shouldn’t either.

Have you written to your MP to let them know why they need to #UnlockTransportAccess for everyone?

Take a couple of minutes to speak out now: https://bit.ly/3VIx95C

A red textured background with bright yellow electrical tape containing a quote from Emma Vogelmann, Co CEO ‘We are disabled 24 hours a day we don't start at 9.30am and stop at 11.00 PM and neither should our bus pass’.

You might’ve heard the news: SpaceX just passed 10,000 Starlink satellites launched. And that number is already old news, as there’s now a new Starlink batch launched every other day. Here’s what that looks like in a short animation of Comet A6 Lemmon courtesy of Michael Jaeger:

I truly do not care if Joe Walsh "became" a Democrat.

He's anti-Trump and that's great, but, what he wants to do is make the Democratic Party into what he wanted the Republican Party to be.

Sorry, man, you failed once, you don't get to do it to the Dems now, too.

Many of these things are unpopular due to *literal decades* of right-wing propaganda and oligarchic control of the media. Surrendering to these numbers will only continue to shift the Overton Window to the Right in this country.

Melissa made landfall in Jamaica as a cat 5 with wind speeds around *185 mph*, I think only the second recorded storm to ever do that. That's as strong as an F4 tornado, only, you know, hurricane-sized.

I wrote about how "Grokipedia" is a new front on the war against reality itself. It's an attempt by the oligarchic class to seize the means of knowledge production itself and create a weaponized unreality.

Grokipedia, the copycat of Wikipedia launched by Elon Musk isn’t just a string of AI generated slop, it is a weapon. The launch of "grokipedia" is a calculated, strategic escalation by the billionaire...
