Honestly, this is inspired.

Nice catch @adam-susman.bsky.social

At the ICE facility in South Portland and a Portland Police sound car on Macadam has announced this has been declared a riot.

I would like my state, every state, to mandate badges, name plates, no masks, for all law enforcement in the state. And if federal agents try to break the mandate, arrest them, then let the courts sort it out.

Every time I think subscribing to the NYT might be worth it again, they end up reminding me why I unsubscribed within 48 hours.

Every. Time.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

New York City votes for mayors like they believe Batman is real and want him to have someone to fight

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first. One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish. Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my school’s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didn’t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I don’t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points. We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Soren’s participation in the girls’ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are. Anelise Feldman Freshman, Yarmouth High School Yarmouth

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

The Price of Remission When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked ...

I you're not already angry about health care prices, read this and feel your blood start to boil.... @propublica.org by the fabulous David Armstrong. www.propublica.org/article/revl...

Well, without an ankle monitor, what is to stop her from co-authoring another op-ed? 

Was that @adam-susman.bsky.social I spotted at the Bangers game?

This video kicks ass: youtu.be/o2jzKo1RqWU?...

It should be a source of profound embarrassment that a bunch of FedSoc lifers are taking a more vocal and principled stand against the corrupt Eric Adams deal than most elected Dems.

I stand with the trans community. Pass it along.

Someone needs to tell Trudeau that the thing that would really stick it to Trump is granting asylum to trans people

Dear Canada and Mexico,

We’re so, so sorry.
