You know the drill. Every time someone posts that *older* voters are more likely to be GOP, I'm going to re-share that that is not true. *Whiter* voters are more likely to be GOP.

Daniel Penny murdered Jordan Neely yet it’s Neely being criminalized. It’s interesting how a white man kills a Black man + so begins a national debate about crime that never centers on the white man who committed the crime or his crime.

The Murder of Jordan Neely
Daniel Penny choked Jordan Neely to death on a Manhattan subway. Instead of being charged with Murder, Penny was framed as a hero in the media while Neely, the victim, was vilified and blamed for his death. This is the result of the dehumanization of Black and homeless people and the policy choices of Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul.

Pilots at Southwest Airlines voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike.
98% turned out to vote, and *99%* voted to authorize.
The union is now able to call a strike, putting pressure on Southwest to meet pilots' demands.
Reskeet if you love hot union summers!!

It’s clear the goal with Yaccarino is to bring back advertisers, but they’re worried about being on a platform full of hate speech that both she and Musk fully support. Plus, the everything app idea is ridiculous — it’s not what most people want from Twitter.

India’s religious AI chatbots are speaking in the voice of god — and condoning violence
Claiming wisdom based on the Bhagavad Gita, the bots frequently go way off script.

For Bluesky to thrive, it needs sex workers and Black Twitter
If Bluesky wants to be a genuine rival to Twitter, it needs to protect sex workers and its Black community.

Adobo Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
These cookies amaze with a salted caramel richness that comes from bay leaves, soy sauce and vinegar, key ingredients in many savory Filipino adobo dishes, bound by toasty brown butter This chocolate chip cookie recipe is adapted from “Mayumu: Filipino American Desserts Remixed” (Harvest, 2023) by Abi Balingit In it, she writes of her “insatiable desire for new combinations of sweet, salty, savory, sour and umami in desserts,” and this cookie hits all of those notes
