Haven't received as many contributions as usual for this year's lists--could be many things, but one aspect is surely that our ability to get this in front of people is much diminished. If you know folks whose stuff should be on here, please suggest it! contingentmagazine.org/yearly-pub-l...

I'd like to see some kind of quality assurance seal on creative works that were made entirely without robotic input.

I wish it didn’t feel so unusual and inspiring to see a leader treating everyone like they matter and saying that we have a responsibility to help each other
Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

We’ve known this for so long
Anderson Cooper: So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?

Answer: Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing… #HousingFirst
100,000 Homes: Housing the homeless saves money?
Giving apartments to the chronically homeless can save taxpayer dollars, advocates say

I will add the following: our students lack the research skills required to audit an LLM essay for errors. They don’t arrive on campus with these skills; we teach it to them over four long years. So throwing freshmen in the deep end and saying “swim your way to a shore of rectitude” is folly.

"Look we've really stretched the air safety system to the breaking point so if you're going to get on a plane you should dress in the suit you want to be buried in."
Trump's Transportation Secretary on how to improve air travel:

"People dress up like they're going to bed when they fly... We want to push people as we come into a really busy travel season, help people out, be in a good mood, dress up"

My friend's daughter is part of this program here in NYC. She was in their first cohort last fall and she's thriving. bhsec.bard.edu/brooklyn/ - It's at no cost and I'm not sure how many families are aware of the opportunity.

A 40 pound cattle dog I know is going up for adoption on the Multnomah County Animal Services website. This is a once in a lifetime dog and anyone who adopts her will be very lucky.

spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.

KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.

His reply was a doozy.

Pro Tip: If you're traveling the next few weeks on the Northeast Corridor, book whatever seats Amtrak has left at this point ASAP before prices go way up and availability disappears.

While the feds continue to play stupid games, SNAP recipients are set to lose food aid for the next month. In the Bay Area, a growing number of restaurants are stepping up to help, and we're maintaining the list. Share with anyone who needs it. www.coyotemedia.org/these-bay-ar...

Preemptive reminder that Samaritan's Purse doesn't follow disaster relief and recovery best practices, not even in Franklin Graham's backyard of Western North Carolina, and they're not a good organization to donate to for Hurricane Melissa recovery.

NOAA hurricane hunters flying aboard a P-3 Orion aircraft ("Kermit") are monitoring Hurricane Melissa as most aircraft steer clear. The storm poses a catastrophic threat to Jamaica and Haiti.

The crew are among the many federal workers working without pay during the US government shutdown.

As we watch #Melissa in the coming week+, make sure you're getting reliable information.
Definitely go to www.nhc.noaa.gov, but also follow experts who don't get into the hype and can offer valuable insights. I have a starter pack of trusted "hurricane gurus" to help with this: go.bsky.app/88mXQKD
