I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’ve never respected a Harvard student more than right now www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

'We've left your parcel in a safe location'

Me looking at the news every day

Someone stole the pickup truck pulling the trailer with the boats of the high school rowing squad -- and crashed, destroying the boats. Here's how the squad is getting back on the water: bit.ly/3FrKpXG

very cool that for ten years people at the heights of political commentary insisted to the point of rage that the paramount threat to free speech was “censorious” college students

The reason you're having trouble concentrating if you are here in the US is because we're basically being chased around by serial killers and being asked to disregard the fact.

Am I crazy or did we just have a convo about how we can't fund cancer research?

i think it is bad that high level public officials do not respect the offices they hold or the public they are supposed to serve

I mean… a lot of people definitely do

I know it’s my job to inspect this cardboard box. I don’t always feel excited about the job, but the work matters

“Take a breath man, it’s not that serious.” Unbelievable statement an ICE agent told a man who collapsed after being handcuffed following his immigration hearing. The overzealous agents had the wrong man & would have kidnapped him had his attorney not insisted in reviewing the arrest warrant.

A nice start to the week. episodes.captivate.fm/episode/f5fb... #WeatherWisdom #Monday #Forecast #May

Happy Mother's Day to this guy's mom's devastating wildcat vagina

Dry slot moving into the region this morning. Upper level showers continue over Central and Western areas.

Well developed storm this morning.

Gabriel shared this pic from where he's harvesting blueberries in Kern County CA. He is paid minimum wage. He's incentivized to work fast so he would receive a $6 bonus per tray if he makes more than 10. But so far he's only earned minimum wage despite trying. #WeFeedYou

A CBP spokesperson tells @wired.com that the agency plans to expand real-time face recognition at the border, potentially aiding Trump administration efforts to track people who self-deport: www.wired.com/story/cbp-fa...

Model accuracy has fall to some of the lowest levels of the year so far. Could be the pattern, but RAOB data missing because of Fed cuts is likely also a culprit.

The cicadas are emerging across the Midwest and even here in Massachusetts on Cape Cod. You can help be a good citizen scientist by downloading cicada safari app.

Okay Luigi absolutely didn't do it and this is a pin job

Customs and Border Protection has called for tech companies to pitch real-time face recognition technology that can capture everyone in a vehicle—not just those in the front seats. www.wired.com/story/cbp-ph...

Axis of heaviest rain running through Eastern Connecticut and on up to Western Massachusetts. This will tend to shift east during the day but you can get your dog walk in this morning without the heaviest rain. A shower is still possible.

It's mostly a dry day today. This afternoon especially North and West of Route 495 and Route 2 it starts to get more showery. Those move closer to Boston overnight and it's more unsettled locally tomorrow. Approaching 70 today with intervals of sunshine.

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.

Our investigation with @propublica.org found that Arizona’s response to a massive Medicaid fraud scheme left patients without access to the drug and alcohol treatment they needed. This week, the director of the state’s Medicaid agency resigned.

are you, like me, one of the 4 to 5 million borrowers who might get screwed by the Trump admin's new plan on student debt? are you not sure if you fall into that category? come read the (bad, mostly) news, and about steps you can take to protect yourself @teenvogue.com ⏬

New clothes washer == delivery people Hmmm, what can I use to bait the dogs to go to the porch so they don’t provide an extra layer of management? Pizza rolls!

Being angry may feel like a luxury, or like a flash of immaturity escaping from a political pose of unsurprise. But telling our representatives to demand accountability before the law is the least we can do, and asking them to be angry too is at this point just asking them to be identifiably human.

One way to read stories based on leaked docs: look at time from being circulated to docs getting published — bc that’s the amount of time it took to a) get someone pissed enough to agree to leak and b) get enough also-pissed people to confirm. These are slides dated April 29-30, published May 1.

The maritime shipping industry is seeing a rise in “blank sailings,” a shift that one expert calls a “canary in the coal mine.” www.wired.com/story/mariti...

If you have planted seeds give them a drink today, it is very dry. Humidity way down. It's why fire danger is up too.

Incredible.

“It’s very chilling,” a Labor Department employee who requested anonymity for fear of retribution told ProPublica. “It’s never a good look when you’re telling people to never talk about what you’re doing.”
