New Yorkers: please vote!!!! Cuomo went all-in on racism in the final 2 weeks because he's got nothing else. And as we've seen, that's a very effective motivator.

Legitimately mad about this. Lots of people in Ward 10 want to vote for the candidate who support alternative transportation. Lydia Millard should stop lying to voters about being a bike advocate. She has very explicitly campaigned against bike, pedestrian, and transit infrastructure.

We did the math on AI’s energy footprint. Here’s the story you haven’t heard. The emissions from individual AI text, image, and video queries seem small—until you add up what the industry isn’t tracking and consider where it’s heading next.

Generating a 5 second video is the energy equivalent of running a microwave for an HOUR

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.

All these conservative PACs stuck using the most incredible photos for their red scare mailers. Aisha looks incredible here

Here’s video of the incident

i made a graphic so it can be even more visible

due to funding cuts, foodnet is no longer requiring state-level monitoring for campylobacter, cyclospora, listeria, shigella, vibrio and yersinia. the 10 foodnet states can still do that, but they’ll need funding to replace CDC’s

to note: there’s also a big difference in saying “i am miserable and this is hard” and saying “i give up” and telling everyone who hasn’t that they are naive

Dave Dahl big yikes but all-around awfulness

i am sorry but there is simply no way that phoebe buffay didn’t go down the crunchy to right wing pipeline

New details about police activity after lawmaker shootings raise questions about response The Minnesota Star Tribune found that Brooklyn Park police waited more than 60 minutes to enter the Hortman home and that several law enforcement agencies were unaware of the situation for hours.

They waited *more than an hour* to enter the Hortman home after watching Mark Hortman get shot in the doorway

Unbelievably tragic & heartbreaking

And, of course, they publicly congratulated themselves on a great, lifesaving police response when they’d let a lawmaker bleed out. Uvalde is everywhere

History note: Fateh is the first Minneapolis DFLer endorsed for mayor since Rybak in 2009, but Rybak was all but unopposed that year. Sincerely wondering when the last time a challenger was endorsed over an incumbent (IIRC Rybak denied Sayles Belton in ‘01 but did not win).

Stacey Sobelman staceysobelman ICE is offering a $45,000 SIGNING BONUS plus $100,000 starting salary. I make $55,000 as a teacher in my 8th year with a Masters. It was never true that wE dOn'T hAvE eNoUgH mOnEy to pay teachers more. It was always intentional. Education has been INTENTIONALLY defunded for decades because an educated populous is a threat to power. Read the books. Do the work. They are TERRIFIED of education.

DOG OWNER ALERTT. SHE'S PERFECT

my 71 yo mother just said “very disappointed in Miss Klobuchar”

Watched Sinners, I guess the lesson I took from it is that life is about eating pussy and shredding on your guitar

In 2017, a 19yr old Aisha Chughtai nearly made the man cry at a Young DFL screening when she asked how he, a millionaire with almost all max-out donations, would represent working people. Dude called himself a 'person of wealth' & barked at her for not 'looking him in the eye' as she took notes

this is the most important tweet you will read today, maybe this whole year

A screenshot of a now-deleted post by Jamelle Bouie. Text says "I think you should tell readers if your source is a nazi" Image is the meme of the white guy in flannel and a leather jacket standing up with a folded document in his pocket, representing speaking an unpopular truth.

A photo of CM Chavez responded to Mayor Frey with You cannot "resist" Trump while simultaneously diminishing mental health services for our LGBTQIA + community as simply "yoga at the park" or "pet projects" We don't need performative allies. Don't veto the funding next time. Our LGBTQIA+ community needs more resources not less. Mayor Jacob Frey shared “Cutting off help for LGBT kids at risk of suicide is unspeakably cruel. Minneapolis will continue to be a welcoming haven for LGBT youth in the face of cruelty at the federal level.”

Mayor Frey,

You cannot “resist” Trump while simultaneously diminishing mental health services for our LGBTQIA+ community as simply “yoga at the park” or “pet projects”.

We don’t need performative allies. Don’t veto the funding next time. Our LGBTQIA+ community needs more resources not less. 1/

a trans person has never negatively impacted my life. politicians and billionaires sure have

if you are worried there will not be accountability for this man you clearly have never met Keith Ellison

My statement on the murder of Speaker Emerita Hortman and the shooting of Senator Hoffman.

The Minnesota assassinations, the attempted arson at Governor Shapiro's home, and the violent arrest of Senator Padilla are all straight out of the Jim Crow terrorism playbook. Same goes with cops aiming for journalists covering the ICE protests.

None of these are new tactics, just a new iteration.

10:30am: "Brevard County Sheriff Sheriff Wayne Ivey: "If you throw a brick, a firebomb, or point a gun at one of our deputies, we will be notifying your family where to collect your remains at, because we will kill you graveyard dead." 10:49am: law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

Jesus.

The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...
