I'm here outside the Tesla showroom in Devon, Pa. west of Philly where about 10 hearty souls are protesting unelected billionaire Elon Musk #TeslaTakedown

And so he shall

I literally reported this Wednesday.

I wish more people understood this because it’s really fucking offensive to see people being gender-policed.

Microplastics in the Hudson River, @riverkeeper.org's public monitoring program in the river, and reducing the amount of plastics getting into us with the Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act. highlandscurrent.org/2025/02/21/o...

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Funny how all those @theatlantic.com and @nytimes.com writers convinced that a handful of loud-but-powerless students threaten free speech are silent when public officials’ criticisms are sparking criminal investigations.

The past ten years has just been the same clutch of morons and apologists insisting that Trump would never cross that line and then shuffling along with him to insist that he would never cross that next one.

"Take him literally, not figuratively. He’s not much of a reader, so if he’s using flowery language, it’s not to impress you. It’s because there’s oil under those flowers."

my brother-in-law, who is a musician in DC, informed us that the Gay Men’s Chorus was summarily banned from performing at the Kennedy Center I hope people enjoy the Straight Men’s Chorus: two elderly baritones and a self-important tenor, performing “Themes from Great Westerns” 🎶Rawww-hiiiide!🎵🎶

An observation: I’m reasonably sure the FBI’s only ever had Republican directors. @vermontgmg.bsky.social please correct me if I’m wrong

I love it when our nazi crackhead shadow president screams slurs at astronauts when they push back on his insane lies

New from @propublica.org: We studied a massive set of hospital discharge data to see what happened after Texas banned abortion. …

AHEM (nathangoldwag.wordpress.com)

all support to our beleaguered northern brethren and their Freedom Coffee

“put it on his fucking gravestone”

Just now picking up my daughter’s Claudia’s Corgi, Gracie, from her spaying procedure from Friendship Animal Hospital in northwest DC. It turns out they are doing something amazing for people victimized by the insane government purges 👉

I want to highlight just how closely the Wurman-Barnett arguments in 2025 parallel those made by the United States against Wong Kim Ark’s citizenship in 1898. And rejected. I do not think this can be coincidence. Here’s a summary of the US’s arguments, via @jnovkov.bsky.social

Really don’t think we can understate how much troll culture is now political culture

My dad was a forensic accountant and this is absolutely accurate

1/ I am seeing a lot of comments on the slashing of NIH support along the lines of “universities should just spend their huge endowments.” I’m the last person to cheer on the institutional stratification rising endowments have contributed to. But let me explain why this is not a solution.

I worked on this story for a decade and he just said it out loud on Fox News

Mike Judge is American Hideo Kojima.

Big crowd at the SF Tesla dealership protesting our unelected overlord. A tiny sign hangs from an upstairs window

Still think at least once a month about the time when I, at the time an anon blogger in a 30K-a-year nonprofit job, got an aggrieved email from a prominent wunderkind editor, chastising me for saying that no one's writing ever sounded more like their name than Thomas Chatterton Williams's.

Union Square rally.

The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk. Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️ thehill.com/media/514849...

I will never top this

Many of Patricia A. McKillip's lyrical fantasy novels are on sale in ebook for $4.99USD, including an omnibus of the Riddle-Master trilogy, both of the Cygnet duology, Winter Rose, Od Magic, Ombria in Shadow, The Bards of Bone Plain, Kingfisher, In the Forests of Serre, and Song for the Basilisk!

Gloomy weather today didn’t stop New Yorkers from holding Governor Hochul to account to remove maga’s pawn, Mayor Adams.

Trump’s ‘Gulf of America’ is stupid—but it matters. Here’s why. Full video on TikTok/IG/YouTube.

Let’s talk about the ultimate DEI program. The US Senate.

Democrats don’t need donations, they need a clue. Kamala Harris raised $1 billion to Trump’s $850M only to be swept in every swing state and lose the popular vote. Giving that party any money without serious change occurring first is enabling their incompetence.

This is the clearest photo ever taken of Venus. 🔭 🧪

Watching "Don't Look Up" again. Christ it's even more on point than when it first came out.

I feel weird announcing this since I am mad at them but most of Discworld is $1.99 on kindle right now. Probably Kobo as well if you're set up with them yet.

Taber updates! I'm officially Pivoting to Video(TM). Why: between bird flu, grocery prices, trade wars, deportations, and more, people NEED good info on food & farms. What's the best way to get that info in front of people who need it? Video.

whats really interesting is that he is confessing here
