The way Dems treat Mamdani versus Platner... hm

the white house brought to you by fanduel

Yes! I see it with my 3rd grader. We ask too much of them. Online work is often more time consuming and frustrating. We get very little feedback--so much goes directly to him, and 8 yr olds aren't always great at remembering what happened or what's important.

Why Are There Still Pirates Fans? | Defector PITTSBURGH — Baseball is one of those sports where most fans head into Opening Day at least with a hint of hope. How else do you explain 48,000 showing up for the Rockies’ home opener? This year, the ...

I love when white people suddenly start exposing how many white supremacists they surround themselves with by pretending it's a normal, universal experience.

the other thing i’ll say here is i am a bit frustrated with the narrative of online radicalization that treats it as akin to brainwashing. it lets individuals, families and communities off the hook for the choices they make and the environments they foster

If you think something doesn't matter, you don't respond to it.

He responded. The people have the upper hand.

Summer Lee showed out like she always does.

Hell yes, Pittsburgh. Love Yinz. No Kings.

I feel that some of you need regular reminders of how unpopular this man is. And frankly I see him getting even more so as the economy worsens. Again, this doesn't mean that he will give up any power but it does mean that WE HAVE POWER TOO.

I just want to be very clear here. This is the Vice President of the United States saying it’s a regular practice among white people to enthusiastically endorse slavery, Hitler, and rape.

Mr President Sir without NHANES the US will lose the trade war and become a net importer of observational studies

They just killed NHANES.

Every US public health student learns about this study.

It’s given us all sorts of important knowledge about the health of Americans and they just ended it.

‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat Thousands of private messages reveal young GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape.

Turns out your assumptions about what republican group chats are like is correct www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

I had been thinking about cancelling my subscription for months, but when they fired Karen Attiah, that was the last straw.

I can't get over how the CDC layoffs are coming less than two months after the attempted mass shooting. The agency is being taken apart brick by brick. The public servants there do not deserve this.

Per CDC source: At internal leadership meeting this afternoon, it was shared that 1,257 people were RIF'd at CDC. Number may not be final. Apparently, chief of staff was unaware that RIFs were going to occur so not clear who is making decisions. (Short 🧵)

All of this is illegal, for the record

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

This is awful.

Heads up, Yinzers...

He Schruted it.

During the 2025 Southern Hemisphere flu season, vaccination reduced influenza-associated outpatient visits by 50.4% and hospitalizations by 49.7%.

CDC recommends flu vaccination for everyone ≥6 months.

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

I rode the DC metro as a kid in the 90s, and one time a guy came up to me, noticed my Pirates hat, and asked me who my favorite player was. I said Barry Bonds. It was terrifying.

Mississippi has historically had a low rate of vaccine-preventable diseases as they were one of the few states that allowed only medical exemptions to vaccination. That changed in 2023, so expect to see more infection and more deaths.

Pittsburghers still talk about this with a level of bitterness that you would have thought it happened this season rather than 20+ years ago.
