DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

yours for only $FUCK.99@upfromsumdirt.blacksky.app · 2d agothat time when black men from greensville sc enlisted for ww1 & their wives wanted to stay home & take care of their kids & other community folk in need but white officials "no, no, no!" & called them "loafers" and said they had to do domestic work for white folks or be fined or jailed.
Hot TV list take: Orphan Black does not belong on a list of great TV shows. Like my also-beloved Battlestar Galactica reboot, it had a brilliant concept, but nowhere to take it. Now if you want to talk greatest performances of all time, I got your girl
An interviewer that relies on incidentals to choose a candidate is not very good at their job. A minimally rude or socially ignorant person may be far more qualified than the best hoop jumper you'll see all week.
Kai Ryssdal@kairyssdal.bsky.social · yesterdayI’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.
you guys broke watergate
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · yesterdayIs asking someone to leave the beverages at home for an interview as fussy as reminding a lady to wear pantyhose or a gentleman to ask before lighting a cigarette? We assembled a team of Post staffers across the newsroom — and commenters — to find out: https://wapo.st/4dwx0LS
Breakfast spots should have bright & cherry lighting. Evening spots should be lit only enough to get to your table and see the food on your plate, especially if there's a bar as well. It's 8pm, and I'm not here to perform surgery.
Please keep up with your voter registration deadlines as we approach #midterms! Decide if you’re doing in-person or absentee, read up on what you need to know in the event of some bullshit (bc you know it’s coming), research candidates, etc.
ALSO. If you do an absentee ballot, mailing it is NOT your only option. I get mine and then hand deliver it to the polling to save some time and it’s prevented issues. Not saying one method is better than the other, but it’s been easier for me and many people aren’t aware you can do this.

Can’t eat a sandwich until you subscribe to sandwiches. Can’t eat today’s sandwich until it has applied daily sandwich updates. Sandwich now has adverts even though you paid for ad-free sandwich. Can pay again to have less sandwich adverts. Now you can eat the sandwich, but it’s smaller.
If I answered each question with "potato" I'd be held in contempt, is this correct?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoMURRAY: The Trump admin falsely labeled birth control as abortion. Do you agree that an IUD is an abortifacient? OVERTON: If confirmed, I'll be fully briefed M: That's not an answer. The prospect of an FDA commissioner who doesn't know that birth control isn't an abortion is deeply alarming O: 😊
The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

I watched a pal go from being a blast on game day, cheering the team on & getting all of us hyped, to being obnoxious and getting pissy every other play, no matter the outcome of the play itself.
Sean@stholeary.bsky.social · 2d agoYou can trace the decline of American society through DraftKings/FanDuel ads. In 2015 when they first infected sports, fans were so mad they stopped. In 2026 every league & network gets a cut, so fans are still mad but we're forced to suffer. The customer is always wrong, now.
Lots of so called MAGA adherents now think Trump sucks but that does not mean that they see their interests as aligned with the groups they consider to be subservient to them.
