"My brother died 13 yrs ago on the sidewalk in downtown Las Vegas. It’s a stark reality, but it illustrates the tragic arc of being brought there as kids so our dad could gamble at sportsbooks, to then surviving on the streets there as a homeless person and dying at 36." www.cjr.org/the-intervie...

Missouri Amendment 3 would permanently ban both transgender youth healthcare and abortion—but there’s little focus on the former. @assignedmedia.org followed canvassers persuading people to vote no with a playbook developed during the marriage equality fight. Honored to publish on @autonomynews.co

feels like about 50-50 taxes/trans stuff in the ads these days and one of those things is a lot more potent to the average dimwit than the other

I remember how some companies refuse incentives based on school property tax breaks because it is unethical to impoverish our school systems. The Stars have no such ethical compunctions. Amazing this is legal. www.dallasnews.com/news/article...

Every time we do "Twitter is bad now" discourse (which is like weekly), I have to think you're all just romanticizing what it was like before too. I had people photoshopping my face into a gas chamber in like 2020. It's WORSE now. It wasn't good before.

I really enjoyed talking with @chrisberube.bsky.social about football helmets for this @99pi.org episode. I’m excited to listen and hear what everyone else has to say, especially @noahcohan.bsky.social! I must admit I hope my mention of OJ Simpson testifying in a helmet lawsuit in 1970 made the cut.

Pretty important thing to consider in the current pop discourse, where Black women are doing a lot of the best work but mostly getting squeezed out of the discussion and on the charts. (Even Tinashe, probably the biggest 2026 success story of the bunch, hasn't had a new Hot 100 hit yet this year.)
