If the baby penguin were wearing a red beret to buy a a tiny baguette in Brooklyn, you could have reasonably assumed he was dressed Curtis Sliwa for Halloween. Otherwise, the scenario is questionable. I too, grieve having to question the authenticity of cute animal videos.

MoC—I will ask you again, Sir. Is that or is that not your paw print in the signature of that letter?!

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

We have the contingency money to save SNAP.

They deleted that information off the website, TODAY.

They are *choosing* to use food as a political weapon.

When we talk about autism, we need to talk about race and gender, too. Black autistic women are often unseen masked out of recognition. Let’s make visibility gentle, not forced 👌🏽

What’s draining tax dollars isn’t SNAP, it’s corporate welfare and billionaire tax breaks.

FACT: Even people working two jobs still need SNAP.

Where’s the outrage about that?!

And this is how Democracy is undone.

This is really important. My disabled son prefers to shop for food right here in his own neighborhood. That means the SNAP money he gets from the federal government is going right back into the community, often to small, family-owned groceries.

Thought it was time to post this video again made by the good folks of @nysfocus.bsky.social. My son & many other disabled people lose SNAP on November 1, and their neighborhoods will lose money spent on food in local, often family-owned, stores #NobodyCanAffordTheseCuts

When I asked Alexa the same question, she said “I’m not quite sure how to help you with that.” Yeah, right.

Dollars to doughnuts it will sell better than the T*ump bible.

Just a reminder b/c of all the weirdos now in leadership positions of the federal government: This is what a normal, decent, informed, legitimate authority figure sounds like.

Studies show that when families who receive SNAP benefits have an able bodied adult, 89% of the time this person is employed

Which indicates many corporations don’t pay workers a living wage-and are thus subsidized by SNAP-yet somehow Republicans never mention this when they cry about “socialism”

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.

I celebrate you for voting early!

Don’t forget “corrupt”?

The following question is evergreen: What the hell is wrong with Bill Maher?

Oh for heaven’s sake, all we told him to do was Get A Life. C’mon Curtis, Get A Life, one will do. Devote that one life entirely to your already laudable Animal Welfare work and we’re all good with you. #AmIRite?

How did Brooklyn do?

For damned sure!

Why is this autistic minor still being detained by immigration officials and separated from his family? Federal officials owe Emmanuel Garcia’s family and the American public clear answers about his case, including whether his support needs are being met.

Immigration officials' detention of Emmanuel Garcia is part of an emerging pattern of abuse of autistic individuals and others with disabilities, including denied access to supports, necessary medications, and communication access. cw39.com/cw39/houston...

Apparently, Trump forgot. Or just never cared.

On #WorldPolioDay, we honor Dr. Tessema Assegid Kebede, a senior epidemiologist whose dedication in regions like Somalia has helped reduce polio in 16 countries. "Polio somewhere is polio everywhere," he shares. Join the fight to #endpolio. Read his full story: bit.ly/47teMr0 🌍

On 9/11 a plane full of people chose to die rather than let the plane hit the White House.
trump dishonors them.

Please boost this signal as far and wide as you can.

No Art between these schlemiels. Fair to middling minds think alike.

Cuomo is a Bottom Feeder because it is an easy commute from the Sea Of Despair floor.

My goodness, it seems Mr. Horse Person has missed his daily seed-oil infusion. Or perhaps he needs his aura read so he’ll stop being so cranky with you.

Thank G-d for our Attorney General here in NYC, AG Tish James.
