This is a trap to make not having an education acceptable. Especially at a time when we need teachers, doctors, lawyers, and other professionally trained people. Don't fall for it.

I lost my job, I can't afford turkey or pie, and my kids have measles. But at least I'm not seeing any trans people in the Macy's parade.

They wanna act like they are surprised and hurt. 🙄

(1/X) The thing about the creepy sex/bad poetry in Lizza's stories about Nuzzi is...they sound like a courtroom defense, the daddy issues defense.

The Ethicist | My neighbor and I have had a long-running dispute about our property line. I recently learned he is an Afghan immigrant. Can I seize this moment and try to get him deported?

This piece by @rtraister.bsky.social is like an antidote to snake venom. Read it and it will save your life. The backlash to “me too” was never about moderation it was about submission. Feminism has not gone too far. The world of men simply moves at the pace of a glacier from its Neanderthal past.

The climate crisis won’t wait and neither will we. With this team, we’ll meet it head-on.

Hey, hey, ho, ho, #LarrySummers has got to go. Sleazeball, bully, misogynist and purveyor of bad economic advice. Why does he always rise to the top no matter his failings?

A colorful illustration with speech bubbles containing motivational phrases about change. A black ribbon reads "THIS IS HOW CHANGE HAPPENS" amid a blue sky with clouds and stars. Quote attributed to Dan Berger.

"Our actions are working, and they are not enough.
Nothing we do is sufficient, and everything we do matters.
We must be strategic, and we must operate on multiple fronts simultaneously.
Time is of the essence, and we have to act for the long haul.
This is how change happens." Dan Berger

After No Kings, It’s Time to Escalate We need bigger—and more disruptive—nonviolent campaigns that can go viral and peel away Trump’s pillars of support

Suggesting that high school students regularly take to the streets without reckoning with two years of BRUTAL repression against teenagers who were protesting genocide means that it's unlikely that teenagers will heed the call to protest.

People have been and are warning that AI is a bubble and that the bubble will burst. With the facists currently in charge, that means maximum pain for those already struggling and maximum gain for their rich friends.

#EricAdams it’s been real. We’re not going to miss your cuts to city services & terrible policies. But we are going to miss yelling at you. Shout out to all the parents, students, educators, librarians, tenants, & NYers who hounded Eric Adams at every turn to demand a People’s Budget & #CareNotCuts.

We don't know what's going to happen so might as well fight for better. That's really my basic political orientation.

Red Envelopes With Cash Are Changing Hands at Adams Campaign Rallies

Breaking news in this follow to The City’s potato chip scoop. “New York Times reporters witnessed supporters of Mayor Eric Adams handing out cash-filled envelopes. Sometimes, that money went to reporters from Chinese-language outlets” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/n...

Anyone besides me wonder how many outlets ACCEPTED the red envelope w/o comment much less alerting the cops?

Nothing resets my autistic brain quite like music does.

Feeling stressed.. music.

Feeling anxious.. music.

Meltdown.. music.

Burned the hell out.. music.

Getting judged by others.. music.

Uncomfortable in new areas.. music.

The list goes on.

If in doubt.. music.

DSA has passed a new anti-zionist resolution. A reminder: It’s worth reading with care, rather than reactively! It seems to me on first read like a lot of the debates from last year were thoughtfully adjudicated.

Looks like the latest covid wave in the US will crest in the next week or so, at least for the adults (right). Under-18s are still on the rise, will likely crash around school start. If so, that would be a close repeat of last year.
