my first piece for The Atlantic. i will be providing more incisive commentary like this, when called upon to do so.

Social Security has a payment accuracy rate of over 99 percent. Only 0.3 percent of Social Security benefits are improper payments, which are typically caused by mistakes or delays. That's better than any private insurance company. www.cbpp.org/blog/setting...

Nap time is the best time. @dogs.bsky.social @dogsofbsky.bsky.social

What??? This is pathetic. Come on, UK, you can do better than this! Go respond to this ridiculous UKGOV consultation on AI asap! Just ignore all the fiddly questions in the middle; they're there to discourage you from having your say. www.gov.uk/government/c...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Latenite babbyGonz archival flashbak pichure time! Heer iam hide behind tha pichure of my frend Tomy Wisseau to spy on Sally and learn her ways

This makes me so happy. I saw what my mom went through and it was horrific. Too late for her but maybe other will be spared!

A big power company wants to build a huge industrial complex near Paranal, the top astronomical site in the world (VLT, ELT etc.). Here is a petition for physics/astro professionals 🧪🔭, please consider signing. Even if you're not, pls help raise awareness by sharing the links in the petition. Thx! 🙏

This video from StarTalk with none other than Neil deGrasse Tyson explains more about Asteroid 2024 YR4 - which will pass very close to earth in 2032. Highly recommend to watch it! With all the other silly articles out there, this however is where the real news is at! 🔭 #Space #Astronomy

Hey, Americans (and everyone else!): peaceful, democratic and not-insane Australia may have a job for you, especially if you work in healthcare. Why not bring your qualifications, skills and experience to a country that appreciates them? Have a look! immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/workin...

The wonderful @merrymacsanctuary.bsky.social here in Vermont is almost to 20k followers. Can you help them reach that milestone? They do amazing work for hoofcats, snoutcats, moocats, woolcats, and more!

Yep

If anyone defends what DOGE is doing ask them why we're still spending $400 million on these Nazi lemons.

My favorite from today’s 50501 March in Boston.

It's many many more now. Yesterday when I signed it I was 2069th or something. Learned societies have a long and problematic history but then are very powerful and need to show that they want to be actors of positive change. @royalsociety.org we believe in you 🙏❤️ stand with us for science 🔭🧪

Thumbelina is one of the most affectionate residents here. She will gently headbutt to ask for scritches and hugs. 🥰

They won’t ever learn will they

Valentine’s Day date idea: take turns admiring your cat. From my collection, no documented date/info.

BOSTON, MA — we have a C4C alumnus who needs a new home as his adopter’s life circumstance has sadly changed & he needs a home ASAP. If you’re local to Boston area & have a loving permanent home for this guy (cat friendly/ok with dogs), please DM us for an app. OR if you’re familiar w/tenant law!!

More cats have died of avian flu because of raw feeding. It has always been a bad idea but especially now. Don't give your cats raw meat or raw milk! 1/2 www.centraloregondaily.com/news/pets-an...

While it’s unlikely that staff and volunteers are smuggling grapes out of Merrymac, Frankie likes to check our bags just to be sure.

Pass it on.👇

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Here is the pre-RFK vaccination schedule for your kids. Please download it before he is confirmed and changes/deletes it. Give it to your pediatrician and say this is the schedule you want your kids on. Making this my pinned post.

Wonderful tale/tail... Czech Dam Project Was Stalled by Bureaucracy. Beavers Built Their Own. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/w...

A drone operator located a lost puppy who had been missing for 34 hours in deep snow. The thermal-imaging footage made for a heartwarming reunion both literally and figuratively. 12/10 (FB: North Country Drone Search & Recovery)

He could have stopped all of this in January 2021. All of it.

Please continue to report.

Goldman: "My Republican colleagues are so weak and afraid of Donald Trump that they're willing to undermine their own constitutional authority just to please them. You're giving away your own power in fealty to Donald Trump."

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery

This is Doug. He may not have a 9-5, but being a full-time cutie patootie is exhausting work. 12/10

This is Bear. He disguised himself and snuck into a golden retriever gathering. Safe to say no one suspected a thing. 13/10
