Doing my annual harassment and discrimination training at work and finding myself pleasantly surprised at this straightforward answer. That's right, corporate training slide, attempting to regulate people who need to use the bathroom *is* inappropriate behavior!
A photo of an exercise in an online corporate harassment and discrimination training course. It poses the question: "Elena works near the employee bathrooms. She begins challenging people attempting to enter the bathrooms if she feels they don't look like the gender that matches the sign on the door. Is this behavior appropriate for the workplace?" There are checkboxes for "Yes" and "No". "No" is checked. The text box next to the question text reads "Correct. Attempting to regulate people who need to use the bathroom is inappropriate behavior."

I LOVE THE STARS

I love the stars, but most don't mean 
that much to me. Most names elude 
me. Some apparent magnitudes 
are so faint that they can't be seen 
by eye or, even, by machine. 
Most azimuths and altitudes 
are too aloof to be reviewed, 
and stellar spectra often lean 
toward the lean. But, helplessly, 
I love the stars, as stars love night—
which is, of course, to say that they 
too love that which they cannot see, 
since astral bodies forge the light 
and know but one unbroken day....

-Anthony Etherin

So of course I matched Cait's donation and I also decided I could afford to send my local food bank $25/mo going forward. If we get through this time, it'll be because we take care of each other.

Huh, even Duolingo knows what's up with JKR.
Duolingo screenshot of a text conversation. The first person asks "Magst du die Bücher mit Harry Potter als Figur?" [English: "Do you like the books with Harry Potter as a character?"] The correct reply has been selected: "Ja, aber meiner Meinung nach ist die Autorin gemein." which has been translated to English as "Yes, but in my opinion, the author is mean."

Pelosi Statement on the Government Funding Bill in the Senate

San Francisco - Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement on the government funding bill under consideration in the Senate:

"Donald Trump and Elon Musk have offered the Congress a false choice between a government shutdown or a blank check that makes a devastating assault on the well-being of working families across America. Let's be clear: neither is a good option for the American people. But this false choice that some are buying instead of fighting is unacceptable. I salute Leader Hakeem Jeffries for his courageous rejection of this false choice, and I am proud of my colleagues in the House Democratic Caucus for their overwhelming vote against this bill.

"Democratic senators should listen to the women. Appropriations leaders Rosa DeLauro and Patty Murray have eloquently presented the case that we must have a better choice: a four-week funding extension to keep government open and negotiate a bipartisan agreement. America has experienced a Trump shutdown before - but this damaging legislation only makes matters worse. Democrats must not buy into this false choice. We must fight back for a better way. Listen to the women, For The People."

As many of you may know, the DOGE Team visited as planned. However, thanks to our swift response and the support of our labor partners, we successfully obtained a temporary order preventing DOL from sharing any data with DOGE. This order remains in effect until the court rules on the temporary restraining order. The DOGE will continue to visit but should not be accessing anything. Keep your eyes and ears open. Please let us know if you see or hear something you can prove. This will be critical.

Thank you to our members how have already stepped up to the plate.

I *am* enjoying the Pasta Demon! (Here it is with alt text so even more people can enjoy it)
A photograph of the side of a food truck. It is painted red and has the words "Pasta Amore" written across it in large white lettering in a kind of fancy looking typeface. Most importantly, between "Pasta" and "Amore" is a depiction of what must be the mascot of this small business, some sort of lasagne-headed man eating a bowl of pasta.A cropped and enlarged shot of the mascot in the previous picture. It has a square of lasagne for a head, with blank black eyes and a mouth opening in a meat layer. The "man" is twirling some noodles (spaghetti?) on a fork over a bowl of pasta with sauce and maybe meatballs. For some reason, this entity is clad in a bright green polo shirt buttoned to the neck. Perhaps it is for the best that the depiction ends at the waist. To be completely clear about what is happening in this image, the Pasta Demon is consuming a pasta dish. Surely this counts as cannibalism.

@joshuajfriedman.com's OhMyGourd feed continues to deliver the most surreally fascinating non-gourd content
A skeet from the OhMyGourd feed by Damien Marie AtHope: "In Regourdou, southern France, the remains of a Neanderthal lay nearby in a stone pit, with various objects, including a bear humerus, a scraper, a core, and some flakes, which were interpreted as grave offerings." 

The quoted skeet from Phlip says "Neanderthals would sharpen bear penis bones into needles, right? Not necessarily worship bear penises right?"

A skeet by Gillian Brandstetter (@gbbranstetter.bsky.social) re-skeeted by Harry Turtledove: "In a couple weeks you're all going to meet the 16-year-old trans girl who's challenge to a ban on gender-affirming medical care is being heard at SCOTUS and I'm going to need you all to 1) be loud and thankful for how badass she's being and 2) fight for her like your life depends on it"

I hate to hand it to the NYT, but this is a breathtaking contrast to the LAT and WaPo being prevented from even endorsing Harris. (Pic reposted with alt text)
A photo of the full front page of the Opinion section of the New York Times. In all-caps lettering big enough to fill the whole thing, it says:

This is the most depressing thing I've read today (so far). Reposting with alt text.
A screenshot of the Washington Post article linked in the quoted post. Text reads:

Despite that fortitude, a sense of sadness, desperation and uncertainty loomed above this once-picturesque town on Sunday. Not far away on Highway 70, hundreds of people lined up outside the Pisgah Brewing Company with jugs and bottles in hand, waiting for water that has been so hard to find. Nearby, someone discovered that an 18-wheeler wrecked during the storm was full of bottled water, and dozens of people came to grab cases and hand out cases to others, until police officers arrived and shouted for them to leave.

"You are stealing!" one shouted as the crowd dispersed.
