I need to take ALL of my practice quizzes and make flashcards and get into study study mode, BUT... I have finished taking notes on all of the EA Part I exam information. Testing opens up September 1. 😬🥳

Perez Hilton live-streamed himself engaging in self-harm and clips of it are now circulating on social media.

Oh I mean THAT shit that you're about to put on television is going to be talked about plenty too. Don't you worry your little head about that. 😹
“If you hear something and it matters to you, come ask me and I'll tell you what I know," Nick Bilton told 60 Minutes staff. “Otherwise I'd like this place to be talked about for what we put on television." New from @oliverdarcy.bsky.social www.status.news/p/60-minutes...

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.

Ooooohhhhh. Its getting MESSY! 🍿
the executive doesn’t seem very unitary today
This story is so absurd that I think it didn’t get enough attention. Chicago police is violating the law to the tune of hundreds of thousands of secret traffic stops that it’s not reporting as the law requires. When Pascal discovered this, they said they’d fix it… but secrecy has only increased!
Chicago Police officials said they would address the 200,000+ secretive traffic stops I had uncovered two years ago that were hidden from oversight. But now as CPD Superintendent Larry Snelling retires, the issue is worse— *half* of all stops in the last year were not properly documented
RFK Jr. is working to obtain identifiable private health information from people in the U.S. in an attempt to falsely “prove” that vaccines cause autism. Governments of other counties already have this information, because they provide healthcare to their citizens. No association has been found.
Glad this case was tossed. Jim Stewartson is STILL a conspiracy theorist.
A federal judge has tossed Kash Patel's defamation lawsuit against blogger Jim Stewartson, who accused Patel of being a "Kremlin asset" and suggested that he helped plan the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

Remember how Trump promised dozens of times that he'd end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours if he won the election? Pepperidge Farm remembers. www.cnn.com/2025/04/25/p...
Trump on Zelenskyy: "I'd like him to end the war. I get along with both ... I said just, 'end the war.'"
A typically massive strategy failure from Trumpseth. When the US started illegally blowing up small boats off Central and South America, drug smugglers diversified into more effective routes. The supply and price of cocaine has not been affected, the DEA found.

This is AMAZING!!!
Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...
Part of the end of this era has to include reparations and citizenship for everyone detained and/or deported by ICE. Every Dem running should start saying it. Abolish ICE is the floor.
Per the police shooting in Madison, WI today, this bears repeating: ICE, CBP, local cops; their violence is all connected. ICE represents an escalation of that violence to be sure. But we wouldn't be here here without years and years of collectively tolerating "regular" cops killing people.
This normalization is taking place more easily precisely because we've also normalized a carceral system that has fed on millions, disproportionately Black and brown people. U.S. police killed 11K+ people in the last decade alone. And we are collectively numb to it:
Can anyone connect me to resources/organizers who have gotten Flock out of their city? Please share far and wide as I think I have an opportunity to do the same in my community.
