Toddys (toddies?) are very reasonable (like <$50), and pretty durable cuz they’re so simple. The carafe is glass, so just don’t drop it and it’ll last for years!

Where Congress’s Cuts Threaten Access to PBS and NPR The loss of federal funding threatens scores of public TV and radio stations across the United States.

New: I teamed up with @elenashao.bsky.social
and nytgraphics to map more than 100 public TV and radio stations that are at risk of closing as a result of tonight's vote:

This is a time bomb that will go off in the fall, when the last federal grants run out.

I am back on my Toddy bullshit. Still the best in the game / best bangarang for your buckaroos, imho. Also replaced the burr holder in my grinder, which was shredded. Great $7 to spend!

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

For the life of me I don’t understand going to the effort - time, money, everything - of running for Congress, winning, and then just rolling over. It makes no sense.

BREAKING: LA Superior Court has ruled in my favor that the public has the right to photos of sworn members of the LA County Sheriff’s Department. Judge Chaffant wrote in his decision that β€œthe public has a strong interest in knowing the identity of its peace officers.”

This is all very simple. Let the world's two biggest babies fight and visibly construct and build a world without them. Anybody who tries to welcome Elon Musk, the world's most preeminent ratfucker, into their political party should be put in a dog crate until 2029.

RIP George Wendt. He rocked out at many a Deerhoof show over the years. Usually by himself, just there supportively digging the tunes. A big-hearted fan of great music til the end.

If you haven’t, go see the Minecraft Movie during the afternoon on a weekend. It may have single-handledly saved the very concept of the movie theater. I wasn’t sure if i was watching YouTube or the Rocky Horror Picture Show. 10/10

South Gaza: Tents, Cash Aid, & Medical **Tent prices have come down slightly and thanks to eveyone's contributions we are able to take advantage of this decrease in order to purchase them in bulk to serve encampments and areas in dire need...

πŸ†˜ URGENT: Wind gusts in Gaza are nearly 40mph and tents are flying away in a winter storm expected to last the next 2 days.

People are distraught and desperate for shelter‼️

Help the Sameer Project in Gaza purchase tarps to fortify tents:

This will happen more and more as corporations happily anticipate and accommodate fascist reaction. Corporate Pride is and always will be fake and craven, give your support, time and attention to your peers instead.

Support a queer person's patreon, buy their prints, share their work.
