"Roughly 1,500 babies have been born HIV-positive every day since January 21, because Musk cut off their mothers’ medication." prospect.org/power/2025-0...

Oh, look, I wrote this two months ago.

This is freakish

The fascist win if you lose your compassion for other people. That's part of the war. You have to keep compassion.

I’m having trouble finding the right words to talk about this horrific crime. For now I’ll say my heart hurts and is with the victims’ families.

Horrific murder of two Israeli embassy staffers in the middle of DC. This kind of violence is illegal, immoral, inexcusable and of course - if the chant of ‘free Palestine’ by the alleged shooter is true - solves nothing and helps zero Palestinians.

I will always be committed to doing my job for the people of New Jersey—and I won’t be intimidated.

No one under 65 gets a covid vaccine anymore

It's kind of infuriating to see, after however many billions of dollars have been spent on supposed cancer awareness campaigns, that rampant speculation about "how long were they keeping this from us" is ruling the day.

Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social asks Marco Rubio about Trump's upcoming dinner with the 220 biggest buyers of his memecoin. Rubio hasn't even heard of it but won't admit it's "a way around the State Department for foreign individuals of significant influence and wealth to directly lobby POTUS."

Ms. Rachel had the same arc as Ta Nehisi Coates where learning the basic facts of the situation made her go “this is unambiguously wrong” and it freaks out the credentialists who think serious people are supposed to say it’s complicated

My statement on the charges filed against me:

@postoctobrist.bsky.social “They call it the ‘Elf Bar but I’m actually quite ill” oh my GOD

What a depressingly good article

Thrilled to be a 2025 Moving Words Competition Winner

We will not accept the targeting of our neighbors or the arrest of elected officials who act to uphold their rights. Proud to rally today with @nywfp.bsky.social in solidarity with Mayor Baraka and against the unabashed authoritarianism of Trump.

Per NBC News: Rumeysa Ozturk has been released!

I regret to inform the senator that Stephen Miller physically fantasizes about it.

I am shocked there hasn't been some sort of website outing the names and face of all these mask wearing freaks. If you know an ICE worker....you should post about it. Who are these people? Who is making a pot roast when their kidnapping racist ass garbage boyfriend comes home from a hard day at ICE?

Men are not constantly being told “you’re bad,” they are constantly being told “LEFT WING SJWS THINK YOU’RE BAD” by conservative propaganda. There’s a huge difference.

polygraphing everyone in the building to see if anyone has ever seen a movie made in france

The evidence of classroom left-wing extremism are “a single student on ‘each side’ asked me for leniency so they can protest” and “a teaching fellow in another dept emailed their students inviting them to a solidarity vigil.” Later in the column he lists political issues he explicitly teaches about.

I wrote a letter to the editor of Music Analysis about a 39-page review of Phil Ewell's book that they published. I think it could have used some … editing. It's open access for now while it's pre-print so enjoy while you can. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The UK's political and media class has spent years heaping sadism on trans people, and they want to do the same in Ireland next. Calls for civility and calm won't cut it. We need to fight them tooth and nail. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

May God bless and keep the czar far away from us.

And Josef K. got due process—a trial was held.

NBC News EXCLUSIVE: A deadly E. coli outbreak hit 15 states, but the FDA chose not to publicize it www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

"ICE took our students, we want them back," @aaup professors from NYU/Columbia among other universities chant, marching to Foley Square.

The hold that this track has on me

I’m currently on an Amtrak on my way home—from White River Junction. I’m horrified to think about the Different Trains we’re on. Last weekend over 1000 people showed up for a Hands Off rally that stretched from WRJ across the river to New Hampshire. Hands off our neighbors, you absolute freaks.
