A.G. Sulzberger saw a man suffer consequences for sexually abusing junior staff and decided we couldn't have that happen again.

I just like to post these data from time to time to puncture the mythological aura of mid 20th c protests. They were less popular than pretty much any 21st c mass action & people criticizing them used the same lines. Protest is about people coming together, shaping narratives, & building power.

I had the same reaction. Mamdani is such a threat in their view that they had to essentially reverse their non-endorsement policy. If Cuomo was cruising to victory, I doubt this piece would be written.

Given the success of live-action How to Train Your Dragon, it’s only a matter of time until live-action Bee Movie.

liberal media is so desperate to find the Good Conservatives that they’ll take a premise that’s basically “this Supreme Court Justice is slightly more moderate than her colleagues” and present it as though she’s some sort of enigmatic rogue.

Had to scroll down for over a minute to “Most Shared” where a rundown of the protests is #1. But boy you wouldn’t know it! Like 20 articles about Amy Coney Barrett though

I wanted to write about Brian Wilson, whose struggles resonate with me, so I wrote this. There may be more underrated music biopics out there, but, today, this is the one I hope people watch.

One of the reasons AOC inspires people is that she doesn’t view her job as a stepping stone or that politics is an end in and of itself.

It remains wild to me that the conventional political wisdom in February was that Trump would be popular forever and that any resistance against him was over.

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

They do this shit because they know no one will call them on it or hold them accountable. Whenever anyone on the left-wing gets attacked, they don’t call for peace or justice. They make up fairy tales. They love violence and they hate accountability.

Seeing how few people turned out for Trump’s parade versus all the protests against him, I’d sure love to read yet another story about how only Trump’s supporters are real Americans.

Absolutely this. While there’s so many articles and posts handwringing over potential violence as protests, the right-wing has made violence a part of its identity. It is condoned and encouraged from the top down.

I think that the MSM is terrified of being targeted by the Right. It shows in their coverage. They aren't scared of the Lefts and that too shows in their coverage.

I’ve seen a lot of hand wringing about the dangers of going to No Kings protests and gently, I want to tell people to chill a little. These are permitted marches and the point is to be out there and seen en masse. Please don’t scare off people who are maybe going to their very first protest

This ICE agent tells an immigration attorney of her three clients: "I'm not picky so I'm giving you the options cause I have to take one. If not I'll take all." He is quite literally saying that ICE is simply deporting people at random to meet a quota. www.instagram.com/reel/DKzbcQe...

Naturally @tressiemcphd.bsky.social is right about why Obama can’t save us, and why anyone thinking the right speech, or the right headline, can turn the tide so vastly underestimates the hole we’re in

As much of a pain in the ass as it was waiting for the Switch 2's inevitable announcement, Nintendo did know what it was doing in terms of making sure there was enough supply to meet demand, which hasn't always been the case lately when it comes to console launches.
