I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

First you walk back support for Medicare for All, now this? C'mon, man. Reporting "critical incidents"? The same "independent reviews" that the CEOs of these data centers want? Stand for something, Manny. AI Firms to be liable for any damage caused by the use of that AI. That'll do it

It is unsettling how surprising this is to me. I've become so accustomed to all monied interests getting away without consequences. Kudos Mr. Silver

I heard bluesky launched video upgrades this week?? Let’s talk about how sometimes being a scientist is observing something you can’t explain, trying to figure out what the heck is going on, then still having no idea what’s going on, and just enjoying the process of learning as you go.

What we know The culprit is a microscopic parasite called Cyclospora, spreads through food or water contaminated with human feces. This parasite lives in the human gut and is shed in stool as a tough, thick-walled shell. This is why it survives on produce and resists rinsing and typical sanitizers.

Usually I'm able to shut out the reality of where things are when I tune into sporting events. I'm a soccer fan once every 4 years. I love watching the games. I love watching the different looks and styles each team brings. Then this blatant corruption of suspending Balogun's red.

The line for fuel at Sam's Club. Like a clock. It's amazing to me how many of us will wait in that line to save $0.20 a gallon

I didn't believe this was real. The president is threatening to end the lives of 90 million people. Kill 90 million human beings. Whether he plans to do this with one big bomb or to do this by destroying power, food, health care access is besides the point. Pay attention.

Brings up one of my least favorite facts about how we are not an advanced society. We dumped all the raw sewage from New York City into the Hudson until 1986. Just 40 years ago we were not treating sewage in New York.

one of the earliest lessons in politics I learned as a kid from my parents was to always vote for a tax increase, because you're trading a dollar amount so small you probably won't notice in order to fund something important that benefits everybody. I wish that was how Democrats messaged this stuff!

So loads of people are sharing an obvious ai "glow up" of an actual photo. I never share ai stuff even to dunk, but in this case I'm sharing a comparison to show the problem. We have to stand against this slop at every level or it becomes normalised. They want us to stop caring. See alt text.
Obvious ai manipulation on the left. Original photo by David Batcheller on the right. Look at the wings, feather shape, head, neck and bill shape, lack of tail etc. This is way more than a filter and absolutely destroys the joy and wonder of the original.

“True generosity consists precisely in fighting to destroy the causes which nourish false charity. False charity constrains the fearful and subdued, the "rejects of life," to extend their trembling hands. True generosity lies in striving so that these hands—whether of individuals or entire peoples—need be extended less and less in supplication, so that more and more they become human hands which work and, working, transform the world.”—Paulo Freire

Unless Democratic Senators who voted no on the #Schumersurrender today explicitly call for Schumer to resign or step aside - they all own this cave. Just pushing out performative posts and press releases don’t count for much anymore. Enough.

26 billionaires spent over $22 million to beat Zohran Mamdani. Why? Because regular people came together around an agenda that prioritized making life easier for more people. It beat big money. That is how we win.

That was one of the best speeches I have ever heard. The depth of reference. The undertoned shade. The in-your-face challenges. From walk out music to quotes - everything was intentional. What a work of art

Yes! Eliminate stigma, provide the basics for everyone. The more I see how policy works, the less sense means testing makes. Universal services are the way

Weiser appears to be the only prominent Colorado Democrat who has used any medium to encourage people to attend today's massive anti-Trump rallies. I can't find any communication from any of the state's six congressional Dems to the same effect.

I don't know what I was expecting when I put on this audiobook. Maybe a standard bro-science success story? Maybe a fun story about "getting in shape"? This book is more. Maybe I just stumbled onto it at the right time for me, but I can't say enough about how impressed I am with this book. Read it!

I think this is becoming clearer every year. The single policy that convinced me this is true is universal child care. This would help EVERYONE. Poor right wingers, lefties, working class... AND the capitalists! If everyone has access to child care they are more likely to work for the machine
