The courts had to step in and tell Donald Trump to feed the people. Let that sink in.

He was perfectly fine letting millions of Americans go hungry—in the middle of a shutdown that Republicans created.

Do what the judge said, Donald. Release the funds and stop playing with folks’ livelihoods.

Federal judge orders Trump administration to pay SNAP benefits out of contingency fund

The ruling came one day before funding for SNAP, more commonly known as food stamps, was set to lapse.

Haha I'm the fish that got away.

No just kidding. I'm not a billionaire.

We do have way too much in common though.

JD Vance, the second most powerful person in the country, makes a flatly racist comment about immigrants and barely any mainstream news orgs are writing about it? Kudos to my employer, USA TODAY, for unflinchingly allowing me to share my views.

Smoked some wings tonight for dinner.

Smoked party wings straight from the smoker. Mmm. Mmm. Delicious.

Hot take: TTRPGs are fundamentally an exercise in empathy, which is why many people (not you, of course) are bad at them

I am going to stop masking sensory issues. So, starting small, I'm looking for sensory, comfy socks. I have always hated socks. Fuzzy socks are too much, soft socks slide down, the seams...too much. Any suggestions?

Once again, the main day of Tea Party protests had about 300,000 nationwide, but saw endless coverage.

The No Kings protests had about 7,000,000 nationwide, and many media outlets reacted with a yawn.

No Kings was nearly 25x as big as the Tea Party but the Tea Party got 25x the attention.

Thomas Zimmer @thomaszimmer.bsky.social · 5d

Ask yourself this: How would the New York Times have covered the protests if it had been seven million MAGA supporters flooding the streets? We don’t even have to guess: We know how they and other mainstream outlets covered the Tea Party protests during Obama’s first term.
