Heard this from multiple sources now. Plenty of the contracts in the queue are for things required for basic operations like phones etc. Things will probably start to break soon.

I wish food trucks drove through my apartment complex like the ice cream truck does

This is the kind of thing that keeps people with kids in cities rather than leaving for the suburbs. This action shows residents that the city cares about them rather than just catering to suburban visitors.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

Banning native plants is very bad. Basically, native fauna often require a single type of plant to survive on, so eliminating natives kills populations, throws the ecosystem out of balance, disrupts the food chain, & reduces agricultural resistance to disease. We need *more* native plants.

BREAKING: Mike Johnson just PULLED tonight’s expected vote on the GOP budget blueprint, for lack of votes.

The fellas at Fenway.

@alexspeier.bsky.social can you elaborate on the current CBA aspect you mentioned on the NESN broadcast regarding the Duran piece

Boycott Airbnb!

I'd wager it's 100% certain they already did this and they're getting ahead of it

Really good odds neither of these guys washes their hands when leaving a public restroom…or at all.

Let them eat old cars.

Boasberg was given a stand down order by Roberts and we'll see if he listens. this is pretty fucking outrageous given DOJ's conduct.

Trump sold a bunch of people into slavery in El Salvador—under false pretenses if that matters to you—and when a federal judge told him to reverse that, Trump unlawfully refused, and now the Supreme Court needs to give it a think; apparently they think selling kidnap victims into slavery has merit.

The court was packed by Republicans for a moment like this.

That catch by Rafaela enters the category of defensive plays that will be talked about and be brought up for a long time

Holy fucking shit that was the first play of the game! #Redsox #mlb

People convinced themselves they were in a recession and voted for a guy who’d put them in one.

"Retirees and disabled people are facing chronic website outages and other access problems as they attempt to log in to their online Social Security accounts, even as they are being directed to do more of their business with the agency online." DOGE is preparing to cut 50% of the website staff.

INSANE market action right now. Market exploded higher on a headline attributed to Kevin Hassett. And now nobody can figure out where it came from and the markets are diving again. An 8% surge and then a 3.5% plunge in a matter of seconds

Literally MINUTES after calling anyone not on board with the tariffs “weak” and “stupid” “PANICANS” — he is reportedly considering a pause on tariffs against all countries except China🤔 🎪

If you are in any way shape or form someone who both is *and* understands what it means for you to *be* in contact with an archive of material, you need to start doing whatever it takes to protect those archives, right now.

Congrats to UConn! 🏀

US Senators from every one of these states—AR, TX, KY, MO, OK, MS, TN—(1) approved Trump/Musk/Doge cuts to NOAA and FEMA, and (2) said Calif would need to change its internal policies before getting federal help for LA fire disaster. Every one of these US Senators happens to be MAGA/GOP.

Raffy with the go-ahead shot! ☄️

You guys wanna see a dead body 🤣💀

Speaking of textiles and the long intertwined history of textile crafts and activism/political commentary…

This person does not want to help this country. They want to laugh while it burns. Fuck them.

THIS is the UNITED States of America - Look at this and many other crowds throughout my country - I'm feeling all kinds of patriotic right now - lump in throat - THIS, is why I pledged my alligiance - THIS is WE, the PEOPLE - the entire world can see us - We are SCREAMING... peacefully 💙
