Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

Let me get this straight: we trained this guy to be an elite killer, abandoned his country to the Taliban, isolated him, arbitrarily banned him from working and so left his family unsupported.
I don’t know if there’s any more efficient way of producing a mental health crisis outside of torture.

The National Guard shooting suspect felt abandoned by the CIA after working together for so long, his fellow unit member said.

Hands-down, one of the best albums ever recorded. Not a single skip.

Sounds about right.
On this day 40 years ago, Fables of the Reconstruction was voted Album of the Year at the College Media Journal Awards in New York City. @millsish.bsky.social thanked college radio and the alternative scene, "without which most of the great rock'n'roll of today would never be heard by mortal ears."

No follow up questions!
this is at least the second time he’s claimed he doesn’t know anything about a pardon he has ostensibly signed, and i feel like that’s two times too many without a follow up question from the press corpse
talking to reporters last night, Trump claimed of Hegseth's double tap strike that "I don't know anything about it," then moments later claimed "I don't who you're talking about" when asked his plan to pardon the former Honduran president

Who is making these decisions? Who is acting as commander in chief? Who is deciding which drug lords to pardon?

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

One of the most eye-opening courses I ever took in undergrad was a seminar on American immigration history & We read a number of very clarifying books. At least two students were immigrants who were forced to go back to school despite having foreign MDs bc the US wouldn’t take their credentials.
Trump and Miller want to turn the clock back to the era of American immigration politics I think few of us were taught honestly about in American public education, outside reading The Great Gatsby

Honestly? High school newspapers produce harder hitting news/opinion than that drivel.
Washpost readers are amazing:
"Many participants express disbelief and frustration, questioning the editorial board's priorities given the more pressing issues facing the world.
"Some comments suggest that the piece is trivial or liken it to content suitable for a high-school newspaper."

Got an emergency call from my old boss back at Milo’s Sanctuary about a kitten with dwarfism that was suffering from severe constipation and was declining. I picked her up and I’ll be taking her down to Michele in a few days so for now- trying to make a kitten poop.
