I seem to remember him being tickled to realize he had the tallest building in NY now on some news call in segment. I mean... fuck this guy, he has always fucking sucked and I don't care, but this feels like elder abuse in a way too, and all of it is intolerable on every fucking level.

Trump on 9/11: "I just thank my people. I was building a big building in New York & I took the whole crew down there right after this happened & they had no hesitation. Everybody went down with me... we thought it was coming down on top of us... two fireman lifted me up and started running with me"

It's Baby Safety Month.

Product safety is not always like the movies. Here, we have resources.

it's probably worth noting that the guys who 'grew up' instead of obsessing over their 'right' to be bigots still have vibrant careers doing what they love. meanwhile, there's Graham.

Chuds on Twitter are mad that the cast from MST3K grew and changed as people and don’t do shitty jokes about marginalized people anymore. And guess who’s at the center of it:

Shocking this has not had broader coverage

Tucson Mayor Regina Romero released a statement on the shooting outside Venture-N Bar early this morning and says it’s being investigated as a hate crime. The suspect reportedly had a list of more LGBTQ+ businesses in the area. The victims are Vincent Anthony Siqueiros and Cameron Davis Capara.

More than 1.2 million Texans' voter registrations are suspended. The deadline to update one’s voter registration in time for the election in Texas is Oct. 5. 🔄

It's certainly in the running.

oh my god

This is bonkers

this shit is breaking my heart. I’ve spent time on O’odham jewed. This is a particularly beautiful and special place that the border has been imposed on in an increasingly violent manner. I’m going to try and head over soon.

BREAKING: Armed and masked agents of the U.S. government have invaded the sovereign Tohono O'odham Nation.

Tim Curry was such a multitalented and magnetic actor; no single clip can truly represent that. But this one he did for a video game never fails to make me laugh--especially watching him try to hold it together during the pause. Just gloriously goofy and fun. Which...maybe this is the clip, then?

Tim Curry is escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism.

So is Mitch McConnell still dead or what?

There were so many reasons to love Dolly, but this one was of course one of my favorites. And I know people whose kids actively look forward to the books coming, and all kids deserve that in their lives. And lunch. All kids deserve lunch. Gave donation because it's what Dolly would do.

Dolly Parton wanted the Imagination Library to continue its work. Her family has asked that it be supported in lieu of flowers.

Dolly Parton believed that Black Lives Matter and that Trans Lives Matter. What more is there to say? Rest well legend but more than your music, thank you for showing us how to be decent human beings. We need to follow your example now more than ever.

You can build all the gaudy ballrooms you want and gild every statue with shitty gold leaf and slap your fuckin name and image on every building taller than 1 floor. But it's stuff like this 👇 that'll be how our progeny will know who was a good human and who was not.

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library gifted more than 332,000,000 books since it was first created 31 years ago.

As others have suggested... Replace all Confederate statues with statues of Dolly Parton.

Dolly, you will forever be the kind of person we at altCDC aspire to be. Thank you for all that you’ve done for public health and for humanity. Rest easy. We will always love you.

Just when you think things can't get worse...they do. RIP Dolly - you were a wonderful performer but an even more wonderful person. I'm going to do what you would do, open up my wallet and give the little I can to the greater good. imaginationlibrary.com #/RIPDolly #DollyParton

receiving a book from their personal friend dolly was a highlight for my kids every month

For one thing, she is responsible for millions of kids having access to books. imaginationlibrary.com

We need her back. Dammit, give her back.

I am so sorry to have to tell you all this but Dolly Parton has passed away. A true queen has left. www.youtube.com/shorts/AOxsQ...

This is also what environmental racism looks like. It’s so normalized that white folks assume they will be spared when the oligarchs decide they need even more. That assumption would be a mistake

Kelly@broadwaybabyto.bsky.social · 3w ago

Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black. Thousands have been without power for nearly two weeks. Many are without safe water. Yet every data center is operational & using enormous amounts of both power and water. This is what oligarchy looks like. Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.

Say NO to environmental hazards like bed bugs, mold, and asbestos. Say YES to requesting environmental hazards inspections 🙂‍↕️ Call 617-534-5965 or email environment@bphc.org.

If you're headed to the pool with your kids this weekend, put away all distractions.

We've seen this playbook before. Trump tries to cut off access to care for trans youth. We fight back. Yesterday, he finalized a rule stripping Medicaid and CHIP coverage for gender-affirming care, and we're ready to fight this one too. Massachusetts stands with trans youth. Period.

This is what we need to do to support our neighbors. This should happen every time someone’s coworker is taken anywhere.

Healthcare workers belong in hospitals, not detention centers. Over 100 nurses rallied outside Maine Medical Center in Portland on Aug 5, forcing ICE to release Debora Kapisha on Aug 6. Organize, speak out, and demand permanent protection for essential workers. 🎥NowThisImpact

It's ok to be silly. But the fact that every other AI company is rolling out variants of the same story after it earned OpenAI so much coverage should make you suspicious.
