those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

The incredible, indomitable, inspirational Alice Wong has left us.

I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making.

May we live up to her example.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

🐍Jungle carpet python (Morelia spilota cheynei).

This subspecies has a max. size of ~2.6 m (~8'6"), but is usually smaller. Females tend to be larger than males.

Found in rainforests in northeastern Queensland, Australia.

I'm thinking today of all my fellow veterans but especially the more than 5,000 trans service members and their families who were kicked out of the military this year despite being highly qualified and serving honorably. This injustice will be a stain on our nation's history.

And because of the way our education system works, and what immigrants must do to become U.S. citizens, I daresay naturalized citizens know far more about our country's tenants and how this country is supposed to work than most people whose families have lived here for generations.
Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

Hey, maybe we should start doing senate home office protests

And if you can you show up at your senator’s home office (in-state) and protest. On weekdays. On the way to work. At lunch. Before dinner.

NO KINGS NO SENATE.

👇 THIS has totally backfired. I'm not sure which Senator did what now, but it makes me want to see the entire Dem caucus primary'd. I don't trust a single damned one of them
Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.
The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.

I would be absolutely delirious at the inclusion of the Gories and Dex Romweber in the Rockhall.

I don't know how else we tell the elected Dems that we are not interested in folding to the bigoted, fascist Republicans.

Or in book reviews on the usual sites, maybe.
John Fetterman’s memoir comes out on Tuesday, so if the phone calls don’t work you can always tell him how you feel while he’s on book tour.

I have a half-point because, while I have "blasted tunes from a boombox", I did not put it on my shoulder because I was not a b-boy in the Boogie Down Bronx and would have looked ridiculous.
I have never done (9) (it's anti-social), (13) (Blockbuster never operated in my country), or (20) (those things were *expensive*).
