People need food. Market won’t provide it. Government should. It’s literally the whole point.

Turns out Mamdani's controversial proposal for government-run supermarkets isn't so novel. Other cities also are toying with the idea to bring fresh, affordable food to communities that do not have easy access to it. Good WSJ read (gift link)

We have a food waste problem, and refilleries like Portland’s @therealmrefillery.bsky.social are working to remedy the issue. At refilleries, the idea is that shoppers buy only what they will use over the next few days or week.

As holiday travel picks up, we have heard reports of travelers being detained by DHS.

If you are a NY-14 constituent worried about detention, consider filling out an ICE privacy release form. This form allows my office to contact ICE on your behalf ⬇️

General hiking advice: put panty hose footies on before socks prevents blisters.

Also I put a yard or so of duct tape on a pen and bring it with me. Great for any hot spots on feet prevents blisters. Also seals a blister and prevents further chafing.

Watched the Fantastic Four movie a few weeks ago and have listened to this song every day since. Such a perfect recreation of a hippie dippy song of that era and I’m surprised I hadn’t heard about it before I got around to seeing the movie

These are pretty naked -- and therefore instructive -- examples of the sorts of defenses that people offer to try and get off the hook
Post reading: "If someone is pirating your shitty book that no one is buying you should be happy anyone is reading it at all. If your already selling copies and its so popular people are pirating it, it shouldnt matter. The number of people pirating ebooks is so small lol."

People are going to pirate my books. I certainly can't stop them from doing it. But I refuse to pretend that it doesn't annoy me or that it has no bearing on my career. And I won't indulge them in the lie that they're doing anything other than stealing for pleasure

"Wuppertal".

One of a series of poems responding to the work of Emmy Klinker (1891-1969), a German artist born in what's now Belgium, dubbed a degenerate artist by the Nazis.

from winter woods we gaze into the valley where a city stretches out along the river like a richly woven carpet from Tibet. a distant whistle draws the eye past towers and steeples, stone and lead and verdigris, to where great arches measure out the land in red-brick curves. cast iron scrolls festoon the full gasometer, surround the station’s gaping mouth from which a brightly-painted tram car, hanging from its single rail, darts like a needle stitching towns into one vibrant patterned whole.

Germany announced it will give Ukraine €170 million in emergency winter aid, on top of boosting military support. Chancellor Friedrich Merz said the funds go toward infrastructure to shield Ukraine’s winter supplies from the impact of Russian terror.

From the MN Society for Professional Journalists: St. Paul police shot three photojournalists (MPR, Reuters, Sahan Journal) with "less lethal" munitions during an ICE operation yesterday. One had to go to the hospital. They say they were specifically targeted by St. Paul police.
MNSPJ condemns St. Paul police attacks on journalists The Minnesota Society of Professional Journalists strongly condemns attacks on journalists by law enforcement on Tuesday, Nov. 25, 2025, during a federal operation in St. Paul. At least three local photojournalists were injured by less-lethal munitions deployed by St. Paul police officers while covering the story. One was transported to the hospital in an ambulance. All three journalists were clearly identified as press with badges and/or vests, in addition to having cameras in hand, clearly at work. All three photojournalists and multiple other local journalists on scene were also injured by chemical irritants. Kerem Yücel, with MPR News, was hit by a less-lethal munition in the shoulder and was transported to a hospital by ambulance. He has since been released and is recovering. Tim Evans, a freelance photojournalist with Reuters, was struck in the stomach with a pepper ball round. Aaron Nesheim, a photojournalist with Sahan Journal, was struck in the head with a pepper ball round. Evans and Nesheim did not require hospitalization. The three journalists hit by munitions shared with MNSPJ that they believe they were targeted by law enforcement for doing their jobs. Photojournalists are on the frontlines of documenting history and it is imperative that they are kept safe and their First Amendment rights are protected. Attacking journalists sends a message to both journalists and everyday citizens that their First Amendment rights will not be respected. The First Amendment protects the rights of journalists to report on their communities and provide information that communities need — information that, on Tuesday, was not transparently available from any law enforcement agency. We demand answers from St. Paul city leadership about why the city’s police department attacked our colleagues and a commitment to seeing that this will never happen again.

I remember having a UBI. It was called “living with my parents,” and I had all my food/shelter needs covered, plus free access to a (shared) TV, music, books, a library card, cars I could borrow and more.

I still worked drudge jobs, because I wanted to buy lots of comics and take girls to movies.
suede.bsky.social SUEDE (NOT THE BAND) @suede.bsky.social · 7d
Always grinds my gears when people say "No one would work drudge jobs if there was a UBI"

But even staying completely capitalist, I disagree. If I received a baseline living-wage UBI, and then I was offered REWARDS for drudge jobs, I'd take it! I want to save up for treats and travel and hobbies!
