The @howtosurvive.bsky.social podcast became one of my faves as soon as it launched.

It's still an underrated gem.

Some personal news:

I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.

Thread incoming.

Apparently Epstein didn't have a single other hobby? Not one person was like, "Happy Birthday Jeff! Looking forward to playing some badminton!"

When you live in a gerrymandered state, you can’t just vote better.

That’s the point of gerrymandering. To take away your vote and voice. To silence you.

It's crazy how some
people need no proof
to believe a lie, but
demand endless proof
to accept the truth.

Valkyries’ rally against first-place Lynx falls short as their fans make WNBA history Golden State fell 78-72 to first-place Minnesota on Saturday amid a standing ovation acknowledging a dream inaugural season. The Valkyries broke the WNBA attendance record.

Wow, this looks exactly like the city trucks that are lined up as barriers around Taste of Chicago at Grant Park right now. Exemplary display of quantum superpositioning β€” and on a weekend! β€”by our truck operators

The lack of mainstream coverage of regular huge protests reminds me of a talk from a Twitter employees who explained that they had to drop BLM off the Trending Tags section because otherwise it would have been there permanently. The modern media environment has no appetite for sustained movements.

Writing a children's book subversive enough to be banned by the far right is phenomenally cool.

For 8/18, a shout out to the late Brody Steven's, hilarious comedian, performer and athlete. But more importantly a good person and one we lost too soon. #MentalHealthAwareness #Suicide

Huge sums of cash are funneled into right wing coffers from both the prison industrial complex, and the penile insecurity complex. #Prisons #Security

Republicans hate me because I fight hard and I refuse to be held back by norms and rules that the GOP ignore. If Republicans try to gerrymander another 5 seats in Texas, Democrats should gerrymander 30 more seats in states they control.
