This is my new favorite thing.

I’ve been having such a fascinating summer of experimenting with life without antidepressants (0/10; would not recommend); but this podcast explores a really big part of what has been on my mind. My attention is too precious a resource to be the pawn of the tech bros. And yours is too.

Most Americans wish they could go back to a time before “everyone was plugged in.” In this episode, Natalie Brennan and @julieebeck.bsky.social explore what’s behind analog nostalgia—and what it means for our relationship with technology in the future.

As others have said, I think of myself as a pretty hopeful person in most arenas. But I’ll take a Mamdani match. Happy Pride, NYC!

One of the people spreading this lie was ANC 7D09 commissioner Ashley Schapitl. If you live in Hill East and want to give your neighbors representation that’s actually in touch, she’s up in November.

There were some ugly claims on X that Janeese was the candidate of white “transplants” while McDuffie was the choice of longtime Black residents. But it looks like McDuffie will only win ward 3 (wealthy, white) while Janeese will carry every other ward (including majority-Black wards 7 and 8).

oh hey, happy pride month 👋 🏳️‍🌈

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.

Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable. We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow. Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

Question for us Kaiser members who want to support the UNAC/UHCP workers! For nonessential care should we be postponing appointments until the strike is over?

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

In addition to abolishing ICE and trying and jailing every single one of those fuckers, disarming US federal law enforcement so they can't casually kill people seems to be a minimum demand for the future.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

“ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do” played over video of ICE engaging in acts of violence should be the wall to wall DNC media strategy right now

Anybody read the latest on Trump’s lawsuit with the Pulitzer Prize Board? Their recent reply asked for Trump’s tax returns, Psychological records, prescription medication history. 😂 Perfect reply. Basically saying “you’re f’ing crazy”. lawandcrime.com/high-profile...
