This is correct. Health care is one of the data-driven ways you reduce crime 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

every time you see this shit ask yourself: what have you done - this week - to make stronger ties in your community? we're all going to need those ties

most of the return-to-office mandates come from a similar place: managers who need to justify their own existence. because let's be real — if you can't rely on adults to work well from home, you did a shitty job of hiring.

Universities that advertised their commitment to diversity in glossy brochures & fundraising campaigns now face a reckoning: was it real or just marketing? The admin bets they’ll stay silent to keep their funding. But the cost of inaction will be far greater. greencarelab.ucdavis.edu/how-universi...

*Russ, but still

Jeffries: hey the GOP controls the government, absolutely nothing i can do, gonna work on my personal book tour Sanders: brb i am going to personally barnstorm strategic GOP house districts and try to peel off 2 votes so we can block Trump's cuts to Medicaid www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

Every Dem Senator and Rep should publicly call Musk a dick and dare that dick DC US Atty to "investigate" them all.

Oooooh burn

Republicans=Nazis

I had a book event for “The Hammer” at the Carter Center last year. It was great and the people there were great too and I assume this makes them sick. Buy Brian’s book and smash fascism in 2025.

George Zimmerman and Kyle Rittenhouse are walking free! They're doing fucking speaking tours!

I am grateful that so many people found my open letter to Elon Musk moving and want to share it. Some well meaning people are just cutting and pasting it on their social media feeds. I would appreciate it if people would link to the version posted on @democracydocket.com instead. Thanks. Marc

‘Venture capital is killing more value than it creates,' author and tech activist Catherine Bracy argues in a new book, World Eaters. Silicon Valley needs to focus more on solving real-world problems and less on fast profit, she says.

This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

This may be @adamserwer.bsky.social's most incisive work since "The Cruelty Is the Point." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I can do a forward facing split. I CANNOT do one while steadily balancing another super strong person above my head with just my arms. JESUS she is strong.

if you get in an argument w someone online about something and when asked to provide sources for your information you post a screenshot of you asking ChatGPT about it im not allowed to say what I think should happen to you

Elon Musk's first ex-wife (who is a novelist) wrote this harrowing account of his insane behavior back in 2010. Sadly, way too many people ignored it. www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/a53...

Yes, it is entirely correct to point out that ICE officers do not have any legal authority to break into somebody’s home unless they get a judicial warrant; which they generally cannot do, because judges only issue warrants for probable cause of crimes, not immigration law violations.

/chatgpt prompt “generate a list of ten things a government employee might do that a self-important dullard would find convincing”

As much "smashing fascists in the head with bricks" energy as it can give me.

Way to go, Sheryl!!

Every so often I remember that Oprah brought us Dr Phil, Dr Oz and The Secret but the only person she brought back to destroy on her show was the guy who pretended to be a worse drug addict than he actually was in a book

THE DAUGHTER OF DAWN (1920) was significant in that its cast was entirely Indigenous. Thought lost for decades, a single copy of this independent production showed up in Oklahoma, where it had been shot, but the owner was holding out for a million dollar payout.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Zelenskyy has shown the world what democracy means. Donald Trump is a convicted felon and a sexual pervert. These two men shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence.

has anyone talked to walter isaacson recently?

this is an act of unspeakable violence. it benefits no one, it doesn’t move a number on a balance sheet. it only guarantees that every one of these incarcerated transgender people will be tortured.

“Trump was the perfect target in a lot of ways: his vanity, narcissism made him a natural target to recruit. He was cultivated over a 40-year period, right up through his election.”

America's best idea: National parks. America's worst idea: Electing a President whose number one priority was staying out of jail.

if you look at a bad thing that happened and assume, evidence-free, that it's because a Black person got a job they shouldn't have, you're not a "DEI skeptic," you're a dumb gutter racist

first of all, fuck you for assuming that I've never spoken up in defense of the trans community, and secondly, why the fuck do you follow me

Quisling, but for agencies

The waters at Angel Falls plunge half a mile from top to bottom, 2,648 ft (807 m), making it the tallest continuous waterfall on Earth. The name suggests religious imagery, 'water plunging from the heavens', but it's actually named for American aviator Jimmie Angel who, well ... crashed there.

Happy Black History Month

Although the majority of people around the world are worried about climate change, most still feel it is a future issue or one that only affects the natural environment. They couldn’t be more wrong: climate change is already affecting what’s on our kitchen counter!

A lesson in how claims of meritocracy as justification for opposing DEI are often cover for the demand that we return to a system of preference for white men - whatever their qualifications. Fire a qualified Black man. Hire a statutorily unqualified white man. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

it really is wild that rowling became the most miserable person on earth because someone used the phrase "people who menstruate" in the grauniad years ago

the most annoying thing about Thomas chatterton williams is that he only really exists because the atlantic is desperate for someone like him to exist. 1
