Not sure what was worse. An 80s childhood where the only choices were Scooby Doo or Family Feud. Or our new reality of AI slop everywhere you look.

The reason why most women my age couldn't care less if Bill Clinton goes down with the ship is that we were teens & young women when the Anita Hill and Monica Lewinsky scandals happened. It's rotten to the core. All the way down. Your "lost" era is not ours.
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?

Greetings from StP #Midway, MN

WAY too much light pollution to see the aurora with my own old eyes in Midway. But I guess the AI assisted night mode on my phone's camera could see it. Which made me realize nearly all the other pics ppl post are the same thing. No more beautiful than an Instagram filter basically.

Imagine having to work without pay for 40 days and the only thing that came out of it was a ban on weed drinks.

I reached out to federal delegation to get some answers on this project. It’s a surprise and a very unwelcome one.

No home for ICE and CBP in Saint Paul.
From a St Paul Dept of Safety and Inspections email: construction permit for a new $11m CBP building construction permit at 670 Bayfield Street next to the downtown StP airport. Note location right near the runways. "Great" place to deport from! @mollycoleman.bsky.social @melvincarter.bsky.social

I'm no expert but if I were going to spam #SaintPaul FB groups with a line of embroidered hoodies, I'd include more than just the wealthy white neighborhoods.

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Is the Roberts court in thrall to Trump or corporate billionaires? Today we begin to find out.
A different kind of Supreme Court oral argument preview:

The tariffs case isn't a hard question on the law. It is a hard question if you're a GOP-appointed justice caught between your billionaire patrons and Trump's authoritarian ambitions:

On tariffs, the Supreme Court must choose between the president and their plutocratic patrons
This case is all about power and loyalty.
