thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.

Check out how tiny the crowds were:

Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000

Well, that might help explain Joe Rogan and Theo Von, for a start
my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

More than a decade ago, I sat down with @marcmaron.bsky.social in his garage to tape something new called a podcast. This time, he came to me to record his last episode.

We talked about the power of conviction, decency in an age of division, and the true story of America.

Trump finally chiming it. Sounds like he's issuing an ultimatum to Gavin and Bass to either send in the Guard and LAPD or he'll federalize the Guard and send them in himself. We are rapidly approaching a crisis point.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.

That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

I think the pandemic broke an already cracked world in several fundamental ways, and it’s going to be a tough sixth year.
For me, this was the beginning of the #COVID19 pandemic, five years ago today: A tweet from @helenbranswell.bsky.social about "unexplained pneumonias" in China, a report eerily similar to the beginnings of #SARS. What a long, strange trip it has been since then... www.nytimes.com/2020/03/30/b...
