I don't say he's a great man. Mark Cuban made a lot of money. Mark Cuban is not the finest character that ever lived. But he’s a billionaire, and a terrible thing is happening to him. So attention must be paid. Attention, attention must finally be paid to such a person.
The recent surge in "Bluesky is dying" pieces appears to have been set off by a Mark Cuban post stating that negative replies and lack of engagement on certain topics were driving users to X. Several earlier articles are reactions to the surge of Bluesky signups that followed the 2024 U.S. election.

Just sit with this for a moment. Israel perpetrated what is certainly the largest single mass killing of trans people in history. And it's basically a footnote in an article in the NYT covered weeks after it happened.
Israel bombed an Evin, an Iranian prison that housed dissidents and political prisoners. They ended up destroying the trans wing and murdering over 100 trans people incarcerated there, many for simply being queer in Iran.
This is unspeakable evil.

Right. This is why the headline read, "Mamdani once claimed to be African-American" instead of, "Many Struggle to Fit their Identities into Simplistic Categories."

It’s weird how the white conservative guys at the NYT get to say whatever they want but anyone else has to watch what they say because it’s “too political”
So, Jamelle Bouie criticizes an attempted-gotcha on Mamdani at NYT, then NYT asks him to remove any criticism from social, but the author of the attempted-gotcha works with impunity? Do I have that right?

No one dares take the suicidal political risk of voting against the Trump bill, the contents of which are unknown to Trump
Extremely dark that the entire U.S. government is lying down to be steamrolled by something called the Trump agenda for fear of some force called "Donald Trump" while the actual Donald Trump has no idea what's happening
Helluva @notusreports.bsky.social scoop showing that Trump has no idea what's in his budget bill. Seems like something that ought to get a lot more attention.
Also this: a republican house member actually admits that they are attacking medicaid. Yes, they are.
