The states in gray are the states where the governors are more afraid of Trump than they are of killing the people they were elected to represent.

Sweet little Eggs. Sending all the good vibes, Maya. I hope he's feeling better soon! 💖

THANK YOU!

Honkin' butter, please.

Coverage of mamdani (every word endlessly scrutinized, wildly bad faith interpretations of everything he says) vs coverage of trump (sanitizing every quote, ignoring his nonsense or paraphrasing it into what reporters wish he had said) is so instructive as to how in the tank the press is for the GOP

She said "spoon," and my brain just needle scratched for a second.

Toss a few bucks if you got em

I've seen it so many times, and it still makes me yell at the screen.

I'm a magical lumberjack able to detect which Maples will have that wonderful variation inside.

I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I watch it every year on my birthday, 12/21. It's a lovely coincidence that's the date at the bottom of the screen when the action starts. I have not yet seen Prince of Darkness. Trying to get to it this month for my horror movie Discord group.

Big tech firms are shutting down programs aimed at supporting women in STEM careers. Signaling once again that the spine of corporate America is as hollow as its pockets are deep.

Looks like the Grok Wikipedia clone, powered by unregulated methane burners destroying Black folks in Memphis, is about as you’d expect.

I still need to watch this as well.

Sotomayor's dissent was appropriately blunt. Boyd did exactly what SCOTUS has said is needed to prevail on an 8th Amendment challenge to an execution method: he proposed a readily available alternative (firing squad) and conclusively showed it would be far less torturous, as it obviously would be.

Student newspapers are a critical part of our information ecosystem, becoming more important with each passing year, bc 1) they’re very good at what they do and 2) they’re not bought & paid for by billionaires like most major newspapers are.

Which means they actually report rather than equivocate.

Hey everyone. I’m trying to help an LA friend here, an Eaton Fire survivor. Long story short, they’re disabled and in need of a place to stay for low $ in LA (near transit) or Sacramento. They have chronic medical problems homelessness is exacerbating and really need this help. I vouch. DM me

Whoa. This looks incredible and I'm gonna try to go. Panel with photojournalists covering ICE in NYC - with hero photographer @madisonswart.bsky.social.

I'm halfway through this article and I have two questions that are not a critique of the article.

The first: why don't we openly talk about these kinds of approaches as what they actually are - experimenting on children with little oversight and the potential to cause real lasting harm?

just keeping score here: poisoning our water and air is free speech, speaking out against genocide is terrorism

The cats are doing spells. I'm sure it's fine.

Maya's wonderful, and Eggs is the best. Send some bacon if you can!

Oh was the lead writer on this Simon Bazelon? The son of Emily Bazelon, whose NYT article about trans kids was so heinous that it sparked 200 NYT contributors to sign an open letter protesting it?
