Any #eprdctn folks here? DAISY best practice for video in EPUB is to put the transcript in
element, but details is a known problem in several RS (always open in some; can’t open in others). So what’s best way to handle? Hyperlink like is used for long descriptions? Other suggestions?

Finally, Republicans in congress draw a line with Trump, and it’s to stand against even remotely affordable healthcare. What a fucking country.

Have given up on all social media, but came back here after multiple anonymous No Kings Protest texts to say Saturday protests accomplish nothing. It’s just some feel-like-I-did something weekend warrior shit. A week day? Maybe would move the needle. Happy to be proven wrong.

What’s more absurd, countless articles wondering if CBS moving on from Colbert is political(he’s highest rated in his slot, only one to grow in viewership the previous quarter) or the salary for this #eprdctn position requiring a good bit of technical knowledge? jobs.up.hcommons.org/job/virginia...

Just a reminder that Trump was going to announce his sanctions on Russia for not negotiating “in two weeks” about 3.5 weeks ago.

Forcefully stopping and detaining my constituent and interrogating him about which hospital he was born in solely because he’s Latino is blatant racism. ICE's racial profiling is terrorizing communities, targeting U.S. citizens and making us less safe. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

If we’re going to slide back to the same levels of racism, misogyny, and homophobia, can we just return to 70s? Payphones and paper maps were fine.

This new war works out *so beautifully* for Trump and his family friend Netanyahu.
This war will divide U.S. progressives, provide cover for domestic fascism as eyes turn elsewhere, and give Trump endless "commander-in-chief" earned media to blame Obama and Biden for a war he and Netanyahu plotted.

The innocence at the end of this is heartbreaking: “the lawsuit could set off something bigger: state probes, decertifications, even criminal investigations.” Like any of that will matter.

Wait till he finds out we fought the British. Mind prepare to be blown.
Trump: "Russia fought with us in WWII and everybody hates them. And Germany and Japan, they're fine — some day somebody will explain that...Everybody hates Russia and they love Germany and Japan...It's a strange world."

“Nice” to see so many coming around to what’s been clear all year: we lost. For real. Sad to see supposedly rational pundits decrying Dems for not being “authentic” like Trump. Bless your little minds. Good luck everyone. Death squads, coming soon to a democracy near you.

Conservatives have zero credibility denouncing attacks on the police when most of them said nothing after Donald Trump pardoned cop beaters on day one. They can shut the fuck up and sit this one out, as far as I’m concerned.

This is what's been driving me f'ing crazy about the Democrats. They ceded the immigration debate to the GOP for no reason. Immigration is a net positive to this country and it's not even close. We have a broken immigration system but the problem isn't the immigrants, it's the politicians.
kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

The COVID-19 vaccines are the closest humans have come to a scientific feat like blowing up an asteroid headed to Earth in real time and saving millions, if not tens of millions, of lives. And conservatives are like, "Witch!!"
Once viewed as the path out of the pandemic, mRNA vaccines are now being vilified — & not just by fringe figures. The attack on this important platform could render the US far more vulnerable in the next pandemic & trailing China in the field of scientific advances. www.statnews.com/2025/06/02/m...
mRNA, once lauded as a scientific marvel, is now a government target

WTF? Amazingly, “loosen radiation limits” might not even be the scariest quote here?
“There are no independent agencies” is not the same as there are no apolitical agencies. We’re governed by folks whose intellectual capacity maxed out at sophomoric, who were voted in by cretins and ding-dongs.
