i think in the name of fairness the producers of the baldur's gate tv show should demand that tv writers do at least a year of running around in circles doing unpaid writing tests before they're allowed to write for the show

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

an alarming amount of the internet runs off AWS. the somewhat-recent AWS outage a month knocked out online ordering, card transaction processing, 3rd party payroll providers, and slack for what seemed like most non-corporate food service places in Austin. divesting is simply sensible.
AWS generates an estimated 50-70% of Amazon’s income according to most sources, which I feel compelled to remind people trying to organize an Amazon retail boycott meant for Bezos. We have to think more critically about how we apply pressure to corporate powers.

Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

The war on work from home is in large part a war on women having a career btw
Roughly half a million women in the US exited the workforce in 2025, and 42% of those who voluntarily left cited their caregiving responsibilities as the main reason, according to a recent survey from Catalyst.

42% of women are leaving the workforce over lack of caregiver support

Don’t ever let people forget this.
And one of the first survivors to step forward to try to stop Epstein? A trans woman, who was promptly mocked and villified by the New York Post, New York Magazine, the courts and law enforcement.
