I got this useful bon mot from a middle school teacher recently.

In response to, “I DONT UNDERSTAND,” he calmly said, “okay what steps have you taken to understand?”

And that’s when I realized that a lot of folks have no steps.

This is somehow both real AND an Onion headline

THIS NEEDS TO BE REPOSTED TO THE MOON !!

Her work is so interesting & Quilting Arts TV/Magazine are great resources. Love the free motion quilting on this piece.

It’s been a pleasure working with Lex and everyone in the politics vertical at Teen Vogue. I’m heartbroken that my column, Disability Visibility, is gone. Teen Vogue was one of the few places that published disabled journalists regularly. I just spent the last 2 months working on my next column

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

guy said, “Do you like Marx?” I said, “I haven’t met him.” Guy said, “No, no, he’s dead.” “Wow, what happened?” “No, no, he died long ago.” I thought the guy Marx had just died. So then, “Why are you asking me if he died long ago?” “No, he wrote a lot. He wrote that poor people should not be poor.” I said, “Sounds amazing.” I’m giving you a sense of how naïve I was. After they left, I went to the library to look for Marx. So that was my introduction to Karl Marx. BS: The FBI. MM: The FBI. Then, of course, I took a class on Marx. Couldn’t just get Marx out of the library. But,

good morning specifically to the FBI agent who introduced Mamdani’s dad to Marx

This appears to be an actual recall, like from the before times when the FDA was helpful sometimes. So check your meds, folks who take Vyvanse.

Welcome to fangames! We've got:

• Cancelled projects
• Projects in development hell
• Remakes
• Demakes
• Remakes that miss the point completely
• The coolest shit you've ever seen
• The coolest shit you've ever seen (cancelled)
• How Is This Still Being Developed It Has Been Like 20 Years

I think we are going to win. But anything's possible.

So I just wanna say, with seven minutes before the polls close in NYC...

...win or lose, we are AHEAD and ready to KEEP FIGHTING because of this MASSIVE mobilization of neighbors who care about neighbors in NYC.

What We Lost When Condé Nast Unceremoniously Shuttered Teen Vogue This article is part of TPM Cafe, TPM’s home for opinion and news...

if you want to know what happened to Teen Vogue yesterday, my work wife @allegrak.bsky.social — who ran our politics section for 6 years until this past June — said it all in this.

can't even pull out a favorite part til I sign my separation letter lol, just read the whole thing.

USDA tells grocery stores: No special discounts for SNAP recipients The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) emailed grocery stores prohibiting them from offering discounts to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients amid the government shutdown. T...

Matthew 25:40 "The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”

MAGA 11-4-25 "But they were on SNAP. So we told them to go f**k themselves."

You don’t have to mourn war criminals. You don’t have to issue condolences to their families.
You don’t have to launder their legacies.

Save your grief for the innocents they killed, maimed or tortured without ever seeing justice served to their executioners.

I can't imagine how surreal it will be for any jury members who missed it in the news to find out that the "assault on an officer" weapon is a sub sandwich.

I feel like this story adequately sums up the state of mainstream media right now.

Fox ran a completely fake story based on racist AI videos of SNAP recipients.

No fact checking. No actual journalism.

They didn’t even officially retract it. They just repurposed it.

Incroyable

There’s a Steep Cost for Ignoring Black Expertise We live in a world bent on undermining Black life.

My final piece for @teenvogue.com politics section was a piece titled "There's a Steep Price to Ignoring Black Expertise" and boy has that come full circle.

Thank you @allegrak.bsky.social and the politics editorial team for turning this Head Start kid into a Black woman who writes for the public.

microplastics is such a bottom tier generational poison they used to put hard drugs in the sodapop

Always disappointed with indie creators who waste time typing out things like "Yes the music's AI but it's just placeholder and I can't do music and I can't affor-"

Spend 10s typing "Free ambient SFX" into a search bar instead. A bit of spooky groaning or sweet birdsong can do a game wonders.

Me on opening night of G-0.0 chanting, "GOO! GOO! GOO! GOO!"

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

"That's so evil I don't believe you're telling me the truth" is such a specific problem with our electorate.
