Everyone’s gotta work retail, service, education, or union. Only way you’re gonna understand how this world works. In other news, hi from bargaining!

Did we cancel D-Day because of a little rough weather? No. Play the damn game.

The worst part of working in education isn’t the fact that we aren’t paid enough, or that we are controlled by the whims of politicians, it’s the fact that my peers do not understand that we are all on the same side and that they are just downright rude and ignorant about their own interests.

It’s 10/1 and the 135th anniversary of John Muir’s Range of Light, Yosemite, becoming public land. Yosemite is imperiled by an administration that wants to sell part of her off and cut off her funding for her proper conservation and care. Speak up. Be a light for the range of light.

It remains odd to me The Onion has decided the thing to do in 2026 is mislead people about Democrats The DNC and prominent Democrats like El-Sayed! This isn’t even a joke, it’s a poorly controlled reflex

We at Bluesky are the Bene Gesserit of social media, silently guiding The Discourse, which is how my poor kid who doesn't follow me on anything thought they could relax and scroll Instagram but was unjustly forced to see a Threads post with my Bluesky post. 😂
Picture of Threads feed:

Trending: Jack Smith gkates123 14h Funniest part to me is Jack Smith using 110% of his lawyer brain. He avoids making the connection himself; he doesn't even say "Hawkeyes," he just says "Iowa." He knows it's better to let everyone figure it out on their own. He also knows from Klobuchar's grin that she'll dunk it for him. -- Max Kennerly 

Kid's text to me:
Ahhh why am I seeing this on my feed
