Remember to live your life such that people don't talk about the abject evils you did when you die.

With a lot of people already hungry, and many more about to lose SNAP benefits, here's a timely piece from @baltimoremagazine.com on Baltimore's growing network of community fridges, including the one we host inside our store: www.baltimoremagazine.com/section/comm...

All of the pilfering, vandalism, and outright death caused by DOGE cuts, and all of the thefts from the future by illegally stopping research grants, didn't save a penny, Trump spent the money and more on corruption and incompetent ICE goons.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Also, your local library probably has a streaming service with a good selection of movies and shows. Support that instead.

Decoding Christian Supremacists' Playbook Before Sean Feucht Takes Over Gas Works Park Christian Supremacist worship leader Sean Feucht is heading back to Seattle for Revive in 25, and anyone paying attention should recognize this isn't just another stop on his revival tour. It's a calc...

New from me for @thestranger.com With Feucht coming to Seattle this weekend I took some time to lay out his playbook, in detail. Understanding how the rage machine works will help folks respond while keeping those most vulnerable safe www.thestranger.com/news/2025/08...

NEW: Last week, oil literally rained down on a Black town in rural Louisiana where 60% of folks live in poverty.

The company isn’t taking responsibility & the federal + state governments are saying residents have to clean it up themselves. capitalbnews.org/louisiana-oi...

This clicked for me when I read Dark Money by @janemayer.bsky.social.

I'm down in the Lower Peninsula, but love Marquette and hope you get a good turnout!

I lost a very dear cousin to an overdose in 2022. The rage I have for these people is bottomless.

Speaking up once again as a former poor kid with parents who had zero dollars for my college education. Pell grants, a scholarship, and subsidized federal loans got me through. College was absolutely critical for me. They want poor kids to stay poor and uneducated.

I’ve found it’s more visually appealing to just paste in his head at the inflection points

Severe cuts at NOAA would kill Great Lakes data buoy network “This map is going to go dark,” say Great Lakes Observing System directors.

Here's a program that generates economic benefits across 8 states and provides info about marine safety, water quality, fisheries, weather, ship navigation. If you live near a Great Lake like I do, you've benefited from this data.

I was away for a few days due to a family emergency and noticed this exact thing. It takes special effort to find out what is happening from day to day.

Hey! We're the same age and I feel this.

There have been so many predictable, highly publicized cases like this that I've concluded that they do understand and they simply don't care. All they care about is maintaining their control over women's bodies.

This is fucking stupid, btw. I didn't listen to my great-grandmother's stories about her schoolmates dying of now-preventable disease just to get infected with fucking MEASLES IN 2025. Please check your vax status, not just for yourself, but for everyone around you, especially the immunocompromised.

Hey, do you know your MMR vax status? I just learned I narrowly missed being exposed to measles in two different places last week. I don't know if I had one dose of the vaccine or two when I was a child, so I'm scheduling my MMR booster now.

Fellow Michigander here and yeah.

Power to the people. Billionaires need us. We don't need them.

Right? Unhinged billionaires are currently dismantling society, and this is what people want to focus on. Also, when will they stop fooling themselves that this will do anything other than give right wingers openings to erode trans rights even more?

I called Peters and Slotkin today and left voicemails.

I keep thinking about this. They want to gut Medicaid? We should be making a real plan for single-payer healthcare. (For example.)

Wow thank you for taking me on this journey

I feel this. My dog turns 10 next month, and I hope we have a few more good years with her. But I still think about this a lot, knowing that day is coming.

...responsible for this for the second time in less than two months.

I suppose being able to bring entire species back from the dead might be something we need to know how to do, considering that the pro-extinction mega-rich are currently destroying the planet.

Did not know that was happening and just read up on it, thank you. Ugh.
