Sharing this from Rt. Rev. Jonathan H. Folts, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of South Dakota. “One of our own priests was targeted at his home—so let no one say, ‘it can’t happen here.’ It can. It has. It is. And rest assured, we will not remain silent or passive in responding.” My heart aches.

This is what revisionist history looks like, in real time. And this also is why it might appear that archaeologists and historians have to dig deep to discover the existence of powerful women and marginalized groups -- because their legacies are so often erased.

Retaliatory tariffs are all right and good but if Canada, Mexico and the EU want to get this over with sanctioning the hell out of Trump’s oligarchs seems like a force multiplier.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

The people now in charge of the Office of Personnel Management apparently don’t know how to scrub PDF metadata, and have exposed the original authors of the guidance they’re publishing. Two, Noah Peters and James Sherk, have links to the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

The glass amphipod Cystisoma is transparent because in the open ocean there is nowhere to hide, and its round head is completely covered in giant eyes. So when you're swimming far from shore just remember: you can't see them, but they can see you. 📽️ Dr. Alejandro Damian-Serrano 🧪🌊🌿🦑🐙

Romania’s constitutional court has annulled the first round of the presidential election after declassified intelligence showed Russia ran a secret campaign on TikTok and Telegram to promote the Far Right first round winner Calin Georgescu, a complete outsider. This is how you do it.

Honestly, as much as I hated Thanksgiving this year, I am kind of glad I did. I saw one of my uncle-in-laws while there, and my mom just informed me his dementia progressed to the point where he no longer recognizes my auntie. Between this, and among many other things, fuck this year.

Unless Congress acts in the next three weeks, Medicare will stop covering telehealth. For people too sick to leave home for months, including millions who have been disabled by Covid, this will mean losing all access to healthcare. Please sign this petition urging your representatives to act

When Animorphs ended, fans were vocal about how they didn't like the depressing ending. K.A. Applegate responded with amongst the most brutal letters I've read. It takes a generational talent to tell your fans "If you're mad at me because that's what you have to take away from Animorphs, too bad."

I have heard way too many progressives who are shocked -- SHOCKED -- at the extreme overtures from the GOP already. I seriously don't know WTF you were thinking when you decided to sit out as a protest for reason X or Y or Z, but your self-righteousness threw a lot of people under the bus.

I’m still on it, nothing has replaced its “most people in politics use it and you can DM them” function, but the idea that people should just stay on there if they’re annoyed by it is crazy. No, it’s a website, they should do things they enjoy instead of using it

Urgh. After all the promises Amazon made to change their return policy on eBooks, I'm seeing entire series read & returned again. 😞 Amazon is not a library. Returning books it comes out of the author's pocket. You can't return digital music after you listen... WHY are digital books any different???

One thing about getting used to a minimalistic/Japanese style bedding system, is that traditional super thick bed mattresses feel too soft and squishy. Feels like I am sinking into the bed.
