There's a weird collective self-justification among reporters on this beat that their job is not to push back but to be stoic in order to observe an endlessly fascinating natural phenomenon. It's all nonsense. He is a public servant. Demand decency, and slap back hard and fast when you don't get it.
I can’t believe people in the room don’t push back. It doesn’t matter if he’s the president, part of holding him accountable is standing up to his bullying— especially if he’s doing it right in front of your face

Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.

She didn't want to deploy to D.C.

"She hated it. She cried about it."

But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.

May she rest in peace.

There's no reason to follow Aaron Rupar when Phil Lewis exists. If Rupar posts anything you need to see, someone who does a better job aggregating breaking news will repost it to your feed.

Fuck Black Friday, but also take advantage of the system when you need to. No shame to anyone surviving out here.
This is a damn important thing to remember. It’s all well & good to avoid Black Friday from a place of comfort, or a place of ethics, which I applaud, but for folks taking advantage of sales to get things they need? No shame, only solidarity in working for better wages & quality of living for all.
It's such a grim thing that I and many other people have only ever used Black Friday as not a gift-buying time, but a time to get necessities that are only affordable once a year.

It became a point of orthodoxy online that people don’t need financial literacy, they just need a better social safety net. I have come around to “Oh actually both are important.”
one of the least sympathetic microgenres of post is, "I financed an extremely expensive truck at fairly normal APRs and am paying HOW MUCH in interest?!"

my uncle is broke as shit in his 60s in large part from making this exact sort of decision multiple times

This is always the plan with authoritarians wielding militaristic power. They create their own enemies to justify their power grabs.

Netanyahu loved October 7th for this exact reason. His failures led to it, and instead of being held accountable, he got more power than ever.
Place National Guard in harm’s way for no good reason. Two members are tragically and unnecessarily shot. The reckless regime’s response: We’re sending 500 more National Guard troops! What a disgrace.

If you’re feeling anxious, stressed, sad, or just out of sorts going into the upcoming holidays, please know that you’re not the only one. Keep breathing. Reach out to someone. Be kind to yourself, and to the people around you. Better is possible as long as we’re alive.
