Should be a bigger story that John McCain’s widow Cindy McCain went on American TV and called bullshit on Israel’s lies last weekend. Like John McCain’s widow is now to the left of Cory Booker on Israel. That’s how bad the Dems are on Palestinian human rights.

US senator calls for the destruction of a civilian ship that intends to deliver humanitarian aid

The news out of Boulder makes my stomach hurt. It's way too close to home. www.reddit.com/r/boulder/co...

Fund the bus

Please don’t use my friend’s name to make this point in this way, especially inaccurately. He was *not* sentenced. And the JSTOR articles he wanted people to have unfettered access to, including for purposes of machine learning analysis, are also copyrighted material. You can just critique OpenAI.

AP 1 Jun 25 -- (Apparently incredibly tiny) Trans athlete AB Hernandez shares gold w/ 2 cis women at CA track meet. All 3 cleared same high jump height & shared gold. rb.gy/ljuoc8 The World As We Know It did not come to an end altho there had been rumors to the contrary. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

📌 🧵 Notes on UCOPS The inaugural Executive Board of UCOPS, formed April 13, 2017, was: President Daryl Turner (Portland PA) Vice President Paul Kelly (San Jose POA) Secretary Robert Harris (Los Angeles PPL) Treasurer Martin Halloran (San Francisco POA) t.co/B2RYVb4tDp

So much of SF education reporting is like, “This Black teenager needed federal troops to escort her to high school. We talked to the white women who screamed at her”

The organization quoted here by @sfchronicle.com is listed as an extremist group by SPLC www.splcenter.org/resources/re...

The “angry parents” who Tucker quotes are an explicitly right wing national group and some local private school parents. So, no one who has an actual stake in SFUSD.

Send all your best vibes toward AB Hernandez today, a teenager who just wants to compete with her peers 🏳️‍⚧️ 🩵🩷🤍

Doctors at the CDC say children should receive Covid vaccines. A disgraced ex-environmental lawyer who spent 20 years abusing heroin says they shouldn't. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

i let my son punch me in the head and i tell him the day you can kill me in one blow is the day you officially become a Teen

I know I should take this seriously but this ICE tweet genuinely made me laugh.

Joann closing months after Fabric Outlet closed pretty much is the final days for me (or at least it was for my crafting budget for the next few years)

I’m at the immigration court in Miami, where at around 9:30 a.m. a Cuban man started choking himself and saying was going to commit suicide after he was arrested by federal officials.

“Hey, it’s the @democrats.org. We want to lose forever. Can you pitch in $5?”

SFUSD outbid by ICE for failed D9 candidate Trevor Chandler, who is now a sales rep for Flock Al surveillance cameras while working as a member of San Francisco DCCC. c/o @loomdoop.bsky.social @jerquecousteau.bsky.social media

Going to this talk in Berkeley tonight

Denim Dan needs to STFU about public school policy unless and until he puts his own kids in SFUSD

Still no word from Tony Thurmond. Increasingly looking like his prior grandstanding for trans students was just that

Bluesky is being kept alive by collective loathing of Gavin Newsom

How’d that capitulation work out @tonythurmond.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov

Noting again that Flock’s director of public affairs is Trevor Chandler, member of San Francisco Democratic Party, and former lobbyist for both Citizen and AIPAC bsky.app/profile/jerq...

Losing my mind here. Biden invested nearly a billion dollars into apprenticeships and the talking point is LISTEN TO THIS TRUMP CORROBORATING CEO? Come on. Apple offshored jobs the same reason as everyone else: worker exploitation to increase profits. bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefing-roo...

Bernard Sleigh’s Anciente Mappe of Fairyland, originally published in 1917, is a stunning six-foot-long map that depicts the worlds of various myths, fairytales, and folklore on one single landscape: publicdomainreview.org/collection/a...

Also call Tony Thurmond @tonythurmond.bsky.social , state superintendent of schools, and ask if his grandstanding for trans students meant anything, if the protections he helped pass are real or if they were just for his gubernatorial campaign [email protected] (916) 319-0800

Gavin without hair gel is actually unnatural

Holy shit - Gavin Newsom has clarified that this goes even further. The transgender runner will compete "in her own category." California is basically instituting a sports ban. www.kcra.com/article/cali...
