I love this for you!

Pickled herring.

But absolutely not creamed herring. That stuff is vile.

this has to be their intern, right?

Oh kitten.

i want to remind people that the free press does not publish "journalism" in the way that someone who works in an actual newsroom would understand it

the sentiment survey about a sales tax to fund public transit here in the Bay Area is like trying to tell my Mom "no".

because maybe if she kept asking, she'd wear me down and get me to say "yes".

it's the worst kind of push poll and I'm not falling for it.

Greta Thunberg On Her Detention: I'm "Not The Story" — It's Israel Violating International Humanitarian Law “I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story.”

Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says:

"Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

And what the media reports on...

my hatred for the Cowboys is enduring and righteous.

also, not everything needs to be monetized.

You need to do it based on labor. Period.

It's because there are people who do this for a LIVING. You underpricing your own efforts makes it even harder for them to get paid what they are worth.

Imagine if you had to live off of this. Price accordingly. Or don't sell your work.

Vegan Bolognese with Lentils, Mushrooms, & Walnuts — Teo's Tiny Kitchen This decadent bolognese combines 8 plant foods to create a bold-flavored and nourishing pasta sauce. The mix of lentils, mushrooms, and walnuts gives it a hearty body and “meaty” texture, while the sp...

If you've not yet tried this, you're in for a treat. I like it best with green or black lentils because they hold their shape better, but red lentils work, too. No need to cook the lentils separately; just chuck them in the sauce with some extra liquid. And DON'T skimp on the tomato paste!

Get outside. Every day. Go for walks without your phone so you can experience how amazing the world is. Bring a friend.

Learn to cook the basics and embrace leftovers.

Save for your retirement but don't forget to travel, preferably outside the US. It'll make you a better human.

where "cover" means "parked on top of their remains" I guess?

*cue Gordon Lightfoot*

Fair. I also stand for free speech and an independent press. That said, "more" != "better" and, respectfully, "journalism" is doing a lot of heavy lifting when it comes to TFP.

How was TFP a dissenting voice? It was a right-wing rag, at best, and sowing misinformation at worst.

I hope I'm misreading your intent - because the real loss here is Bari Weiss taking over CBS. That's the end of a journalistic stalwart. RIP Walter Cronkite.

On that we can agree?

Wonder if they asked Ford and GM whether this might be a problem. Many pickups/SUVs fall into "Medium Duty" range. So, just driving back from CA or MX would trigger tariffs.

Cool!

as always, the most accurate summation of modern politics ever created

I was told not to teach a class on the intellectual histories of Zionism and Anti-Zionism next year - not because they doubted I could teach it fairly, but because it would attract too many politicians scrutinizing the syllabus.

A society where that is a valid fear is no longer fully democratic.

be the change you want to see in the world.

This one's really great, for anyone who's not already sick of hearing about Jay Graber & waffles & why what she & the rest of the Bluesky team are doing is so ridiculously incompetent & awful

Łink to everything. poasting łinks to recipes, łinks to articles, and łinks to mutual aid sites.

Bonus if the recipe łink is for 🥞

Can confirm. It’s why they call the drink ”Ye Olde Fashioned”
