Good morning, NYC. We have some very exciting news to share.

“Bluesky is dying!” The biggest news on Twitter is a bunch of transphobes celebrating a 17 year old girl killing herself. I’d rather be here than there.

Abortion bans are a violation of the separation of church and state. So are book bans. So are anti-LGBT laws. So are school vouchers. Notice a pattern?

Wokeness has not been destroyed, it has merely gone underground. Every weekend my comrades and I get together in a secret location and say pronouns to each other

That student visa thing is going to fuck every college in America. Every single one. It's madness, and also, these fucking people hate small town America. We already knew they hated big cities--but they also hate small towns. Colleges are anchor institutions. They die, towns die.

When a worker torches a factory, in what side will you be on? On the side of the workers or on the side of the state?

🧵1/ He estado buscando trabajo en el campo de la educación en Puerto Rico con la esperanza de mudarme para estar más cerca de mi familia y amistades en la isla. Pero seré honesta... el proceso me ha roto un poco el corazón.

Gosh, Nick Clegg, why can't authors buy houses?

@mommunism.bsky.social Vetted by ✔️Molly Shah and ✔️Butterflyeffect Project Whoever isn’t killed by the bombing… will be killed by hunger!!😥 My friends, please help my family as much as you can — every amount is precious in this catastrophic situation.🥹😥👏

Never logging off

You know, if there’s one thing that pisses me off more than the deluge of ghost job listings, it’s companies that put one up a listing and then reject you from their HQ email so you can’t even fucking place who the fuck rejected this time. UGH #LinkedIn #techjobs

This Memorial Day let’s remember Aaron Bushnell.

a big boat stuck could fix us

Canadian mutuals, this post isn’t a slight against you so please don’t take it that way. i just want to briefly say that when Canadians use Puerto Rico’s treatment as a dunk on Southern USA states, you’re showing your ass. you’re contributing nothing and are indulging in suffering of people. stop.

This is good advice. And before there was a covid conscious community, the disabled community told us how exactly the system would start failing us. And they were right.

Happy birthday, Miles “Miles in Berlin is a live album by Miles Davis from a performance at the Berliner Philharmonie on September 25, 1964 with his "Second Great Quintet," featuring Wayne Shorter, pianist Herbie Hancock, bassist Ron Carter and drummer Tony Williams…”

Learning that the Dems are spending tens of millions of dollars to understand how to post successfully online doesn’t make me particularly optimistic for the future. Case in point: my friends and I learned how to do that for free when we were children

A lot of very lazy analysis boils down to assuming all Palestinian accounts are scams and the reason for this is that the cost to the armchair analysts for being wrong is zero. It's not cost-free to the unfairly maligned Gazans however.

I just spoke with my father. He didn’t say goodbye or ‘take care.’ He ended the call with, ‘Forgive me if this is the last time we speak.’ This is how war changes our words. What kind of world lets this become normal?

There's only 12 days left and $1,345 left to fulfill this fundraiser! 🍉🍉🍉 www.muslimgiving.org/000ar0f0t

Are you fucking kidding me

Hey just a reminder to not go see the new Lilo and Stitch for SO MANY REASONS.

The slogans "Defund the Police" and "Abolish Ice" were criticized by centrists. History has proven progressives correct once more.

if your grand approach to politics is bloodless poll-testing so that you're always aligned with wherever public opinion happens to be, you've already lost

If you’re ever sad, remember the earth is 4.5 billion years old yet you somehow managed to exist at the same time as your cat.

💥 Holy. Shit.💥 Both parts of the Max/Kelly exposé (and the abridged version) have surpassed 10k views. This has been one of the most emotionally charged projects I’ve made. I’m floored. I’m honored. I’m so fucking grateful. Thank you. 🖤 Thank you.🖤 THANK YOU.🖤 🖤 🖤 #F1 #MaxVerstappen

This company sounds like it's just committing fraud?

I’ll say asking to at least be communicated to in Arabic seems like an incredibly fair ask

Antivaxx and libertarianism are the same--they can exist only when the majority of the population buys in to what it takes to live in a society, allowing the minority to think they are outsiders thriving on their own exceptionalism.

lol I just got momentarily hysterical thinking about the fact that the New York Times got its managing director for communications to confirm on a Saturday that it is standing by its reporting that young women in China have tiny hands and this is why Apple has its factories there

I’d like for this website to spend less time complaining about the New York Times but they really have to stop publishing that shit they publish first

If you come to Puerto Rico and you can’t handle the sound of our coquís, then we don’t care. Go fuck yourselves. But if you dare systematically erase our coquís, we will hunt you down. Take care, colonizador 👋 #BlueskyPR

Gringos vacationing in Puerto Rico beefing with a frog the size of a quarter is kinda funny if you don’t think about how their immediate solution to anything slightly inconveniencing is to exterminate them.
