An X post by NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch with a statement about the suspension of Jeffrey Maddrey.

He should've been fired when he protected a retired cop who chased and menaced kids with his gun.

Instead, Adams promoted him and pushed out his first NYPD Commissioner who wanted to dock Maddrey’s 10 vacation days.

Better late than never.

Famous portrait of Karl Marx. He's sitting in an armchair and has one hand tucked into his suit jacket.

Painting from 1930 titled "Lenin on the Rostrum" by Aleksandr Gerasimov. It depicts Lenin giving a speech while Soviet flags wave in the crowd.

@soilent.bsky.social recently asked me to put together an introductory list of introductory socialist/communist readings, and I thought it might be helpful.

The goal of this is not to be definitive, or to say these are the only important texts, but rather to give a starting point.

African SFF you should be reading right now Some of the best science fiction and fantasy coming out of the continent.

Looking for more African SFF writers (living on or from the continent)? Wole Talabi, Tendai Huchu and I named some of our fave recommends at WorldCon in Glasgow and @beckbessinger.bsky.social was kind enough to list them with all the links: www.sambeckbessinger.com/african-sff-...

This is today. Very curious what’ll shake out, if this is real, etc.

Israel is exploiting the fall of Assad in Syria for its own colonial gains. By stealing Syrian land and bombing military sites, Israel is seeking to reshape the Middle East in its own image, all while stealing Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank and committing genocide in Gaza.

So many tiny toddlers who deserve so much better this evening 💔

BREAKING 🇪🇸🇵🇸 The US has threatened to sanction Spain for banning ships carrying weapons for Israel from stopping at its ports. The PI and the Palestinian Youth Movement denounce the criminalization of solidarity with Palestine — and the flagrant violation of Spain's sovereignty.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Ahmed. Ahmed is just 19 and the only boy in a set of triplets. He has been working to provide for his whole family. One of his sisters has an enlarged spleen that needs medical treatment.

If you like your human culture ground into low-intention AI mush, good news: you're going to get a lot of that.

If you're interested in how data and algorithms might work for curiosity and joy, instead, you might like my book.

i went to my college today and i was like oh... i love being around people that want the same thing as me 😭

Three little images of Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop. Top left is Spike carrying a tower of dishes, sporting an apron and a pissed off expression, most likely at the fact that he has to hold down a dishwashing job. Too right is of Spike, looking miserable in his iconic puffy pink jacket as seen in Episodes 12 and 13 and the ‘do I look like I have money’ meme from a few years back. On the bottom is a more traditional image of Spike lounging cross legged, cigarette in hand, vaguely annoyed look upon his face.

Watched the second half of Cowboy Bebop the other week and felt inspired to draw my boy Spike Spiegel.

nope. but they look enticing sometimes 😩

The wife of slain health insurance CEO Brian Thompson said Wednesday that her husband had been getting threats before he was gunned down in Midtown Manhattan. “There had been some threats,” Paulette Thompson told NBC News in her first comments since her husband was murdered early Wednesday. “Basically, I don’t know, a lack of coverage?” she said, referring to her 50-year-old husband’s role as CEO of UnitedHealthcare’s insurance division.

health insurance executives kill people every day by denying them coverage btw
