Today was a lot. New entertainment is canceled and I'm just going to watch Orphan Black all the way through so I can pretend Tatiana Maslany is the only person who exists.

lemme just go pack for the nursing home now. 😩😭
this week I was walking an undergrad RA through digitizing a bunch of pdf directories, sort of like the Yellow Pages for a specific industry, and halfway through student hits me with “… I’m sorry professor, but what are yellow pages?” 😭
My favorite piece of content today.

it's great how much of our interaction with AI is just figuring out how to make it go away.
Oh wait! Figured out how to get rid of the garbage Gemini button in Chrome:
- Right-click
- Unpin
Gone!

Laughing at Donald Trump saying he'd definitely feel comfortable living in Zohran Mamdani's New York on the same day that half the consultant brain-poisoned Democratic party voted to condemn socialism

my jaw is on the floor and yet im completely unsurprised. trump’s only political conviction is that he loves a handsome winner
A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.
Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."

In honor of Link, who was banned for the crime of speaking truth to power, I am continuing Fund Me Friday in his stead. The last two Fridays have been delayed due to life stuff, but today I am back on the ball.

The crime is not what we were doing protesting in the 10th floor elevator lobby of 26 Federal Plaza.
The crime is what ICE agents are doing on the other side of the door.

NEW: Brad Lander says he wants a trial, not a deal to drop his charge stemming from an arrest by ICE.
After Arrest by ICE, City Comptroller Rejects Deal and Seeks Trial
Other officials arrested while protesting at 26 Federal Plaza in September will have their federal charges dropped if they avoid arrest inside a federal building for six months.

Oswalt's post was definitely more violent than Link's, but there's a bigger difference I can't quite put my finger on

Glad you’re speaking on this today. It seems a lot of people think we at least have one piece of paper confirming we were adopted. Nope. Literally nothing.
Unlike your cabbage patch doll, I didn't come with adoption papers. No adoptee does. In fact, all we're given is nothing but a new birth certificate that falsely lists our adopters as our "parents of live birth". You think we're given some sort of adoption file when we're 18?

Schumer reached out to leading presidential contenders to try and mute criticism of the deal, calling Josh Shapiro, Andy Beshear, JB Pritzker, and Gavin Newsom.
While Schumer voted against it, the eight Dems behind the shutdown deal said the minority leader was aware of their plan. trib.al/lcNlGik

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

This is also why setting up a recurring donation is so valuable, if you can swing it. Knowing that they'll get even $5 consistently each month REALLY increases how much food they can provide.
spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

26 billionaires spent over $22 million to beat Zohran Mamdani.
Why? Because regular people came together around an agenda that prioritized making life easier for more people. It beat big money.
That is how we win.
