Bruenig's just making up types of child care fraud to push his preference for women staying home on the other site.
Matt Bruenig tweet: Much of this fraud clearly would not occur if there were a home child care benefit. What you have are home caregivers who are eligible for child care subsidies but only if they use center-based care. So they pretend to do that so the center can get reimbursement and then split it

DHS now says it's aiming for 100 million deportations. In an amazing coincidence, there are 104 million Black and Hispanic people living in the U.S. right now.

Closing the CA5 year with another disagreement about qualified immunity: this time, another person shot while fleeing or maybe not fleeing.

In dissent, Judge Oldham complains that police are being subjected to "NFL" style replay.

who could have guessed that these social media companies owned by Trump donors in the US don't want to share their data to study misinformation and election interference

like most large industries, tech has discovered that anti-democracy is good for business

Also, this just in -> the latest bizarre AI fever dream is AI-controlled trivets, staplers, and coffee cups on wheels. So we'll be chased around by inanimate wheeled objects clamoring for our attention.

Sundays in America are great because people can go to church and learn why god can't stop horrible things from happening and then they can go home and learn that god loves to help football players score touchdowns

[at]womensartbluesky.bsky.social cleared their blog of TERF dog whistles (see rationalwiki.org/wiki/TERF_glossary) but still no distancing from TERFs or clarification of trans-inclusivity - 🚩🚩🚩

better alternatives exist:
@womensart1.bsky.social and @womensart2.bsky.social

screenshot of a post on another social media platform, dated 30 Sep 2020. The post reads "My tweet about womensart being a TERF account is still making the rounds. If there's still any doubt in your mind after their repeated refusal to feature trans women, this is from their about page. Please stop promoting this trans-exclusive project, friends." and it shows a screenshot of the website womensartblog.wordpress.com: "specific exploration of the artwork of women has enabled insights into areas including capitalism, migration, class, globalization, ethnicity, disability and so on, from an unusual, uniquely female perspective. In doing so this has exposed a subtext of experiential and biological connections between women, as issues relating to girlhood, motherhood, abortion, body image, pregnancy, infertility, social role, violence against women and so on, are highlighted as common historic and global themes in their work." screenshot of a bluesky post by @womensart2.bsky.social, date: Nov 17 2024. It clarifies confusion about the various accounts with similar names. Along with a photo of the account with the handle "womensartbluesky", it says "This is the TERF account. Their original username was womensartl and this page was created as a parody, now both @womensart1.bsky.social and @womensart2.bsky.social are run at least in part by trans women."
