If you can, please consider donating to their GoFundMe. The money is going to union members this holiday so they can buy groceries and pay rent while they fight for a fair contract.

If MiUSA means anything at all, it must mean good paying jobs for workers.

The House passed a resolution condemning socialism. Okay.

When are they going to pass a resolution condemning fascism?

@katelynburns.com my organization lost funding for our LGBTQ+ youth drop in center in the new administration. We are currently fundraising in an effort to save it. It’s a great little safe space that is doing much good in our community.

the way I am putting every single author I know in a headlock over the next few months.
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

A party that couldn't endorse Mamdani. . . has room for Marjorie Taylor Greene

The party can burn in hell
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

Ever since someone on here brought up the fact that the media literally just interviews rich people to get their thoughts on random shit, even though there’s absolutely no need to do that, it’s all that I can see everywhere

*Man creeps woman out of STEM*

“Huh, I guess women just aren’t that into… science”
If women are underrepresented in STEM, it's at least partly because men like this offer mentoring, then embarrass themselves by assuming their mentees must be into them, then decide the best solution is to cut ties, which sends the signal to other faculty that the mentee must not be good enough.

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

I think about this all the time
The money we are using to feed ppl in Gaza and Houston, that we are using to pay medical bills, is being stolen by bomb maker and “insurance” companies. It could be used to fund our own rest, care and retirements. We are subsidizing their pockets with our lost retirement funds.

Epstein Survivor Lisa Phillips: Everyone makes it about Trump and Epstein, but it’s about this whole ring of men. That’s what makes me upset, because we know they were there. We saw them. We know there were royalty, princes, very powerful people in academia and tech, and we saw them at parties.

Despite Trump and Hegseth constantly talking about politicizing the US army and staging occupations of US cities, and despite unsustainable bloat of the Pentagon budget, only 19 Democrats voted against the FY 2027 military spending bill.

In city after city, police are the single biggest budget item.

And I don’t mean like 2% when everything else is 1%. I mean like 40%.

Police take priority over drug treatment, psych care, housing, etc etc etc.

And now we are here.

Despite being aware, I keep experiencing the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect.

I treat news stories as authoritative outside my area of expertise until I see one where I’m familiar with the topic and it’s clearly nonsense from an author who doesn’t understand what they’re writing about. Still I trust news
