I don't think anybody covered the Feb/Mar Dem debacle over the GOP funding bill with better, earlier, or more actionable insights than @joshtpm.bsky.social. So this is very much worth a read.

I tracked down source of a TikTok i saw about horrific car pick up lane in a Tennessee school district. And it is true. Parents arriving by noon to wait in line for hours, doordashing food as they wait, etc. www.wbir.com/article/traf...

Traffic near Loudon County schools stirs frustration, raises safety concerns with few immediate fixes
For years, school drop off and pickup lines at Eaton Elementary and North Middle School have frustrated drivers, backing up traffic on two highways.

I see a lot of people complaining that no one has started the resistance for them. I mean, I get it, I don't know what to do either.

If my taxes don’t pave my roads or fix my bridges or keep my schools open 5 days a week or pay local teachers a living wage or help keep my hospital open or help my neighbor’s kid eat lunch or fund public television or my healthcare… Why the f’ck should I pay taxes?

‘How many people were arrested?’ is a lousy way to cover protests | Press Watch
Protests are big news now. That calls for better reporting on them.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

The #2025MMM DIVISIONS!!!
SAME/DIFFERENT Division
Animals from very different lineages can have similar traits because they have similar adaptations for types of lifestyles- such as traits for digging or gliding from tree to tree. This division celebrates Convergent Evolution!

The ONLY ONES
Mammals that are the only living species of their genus!

ROOTS & RELICTS
Species that have existed for so long from such ancient times or in a lost, remnant population.

TUXEDO STYLE
A division of mammals that are “monochromatic” one color- species that are shades of grey all the way from from black to white. But who will end up… RED ALL OVER?!?

I've been really busy with my own life recently, and missed this story, but I am sad and disappointed that Spotts is leaving. He's been fantastic! I hope he's appreciated wherever he ends up.

I'm so confused about why grown adults gives N*ck Fuentes any attention at all. He's a child. He hasn't done any real living outside of saying naughty things on the Internet. Please stop reminding me he exists.

We will defeat this Republican effort to steal our earned benefits. The money is ours, Mike Lee, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump. You’re not going to get a penny of it.

If we want better fashion culture in the US, we have to lower the cost of housing and commercial real estate, support independent craftspeople, build denser neighborhoods, improve walkability, and get rid of overly restrictive zoning laws. Let kook culture thrive.

Why Kamala Harris lost, explained
Did white women or Hispanic men doom the Harris campaign? Or were we just crazy to believe the U.S. was ready to elect a Black woman?
