It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.

But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.

Another highlight was @councilormorillo.bsky.social noting that nearly all of the mainstream media celebration about the Mayor meeting his shelter bed goal glosses over that the actual promise was to end unsheltered homelessness, which obviously didn’t happen.

I love that @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social came to the wrong #Portland to study lighthouses.
Just to show you a few recent, cool entries. The blank expression is key, but as to where you pose, you can see a lot is acceptable. (This is not yet a comment on what will be accepted for the book, since we can only use a few.) (Claim your photo if u want, but did not want to preemptively ID.)

The fundamentalist Christian Nationalist insistence that everything revolve around their feelings of self-importance is tiring. Long before Christianity existed, people decorated evergreen trees during solstice. Christians appropriated the practice but they demand only their tradition is valid.

I feel like the fractures we are seeing in the MAGA coalition have some people hoping the status quo will simply make a roaring comeback, and judicial consequences will simply engulf all of the bad guys. There's really no precedent that supports that expectation.

We are destroying shared reality and knowledge in real time now.......... So fun.
Someone on reddit posted an engraved logo of a fedora and a rose, asking what it stood for.

Someone else jokingly answered 'the noble order of neck beards.'

A third person ran the logo through Google Lens just hours later. Google's AI had already scraped the joke answer, and presented it as truth.
