Ashamed to say I'd never had sweet potato pie before today.

Tried three today: the well-known Patti LaBelle pie from Wal-Mart, a recipe that viewers suggested I make at home, and a slice from Denver's famous Welton Street Cafe.

(You're dismissed now, pumpkin pie. We're done.)

One way to fight fascism is to not let it take away our sense of hope. Our sense of wholeness and our sense of humor.

Data centers are important for many reasons BUT consumers should NOT have to pay higher bills to facilitate the huge amounts of electricity they eat up.

The richest companies on the planet are building these centers and they should bear the costs — not you.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Don't forget: President Trump relentlessly attacked @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social & did everything to stop his win.

It's funny how his tune changed when confronted with Mamdani’s actual focus on affordability — something Trump claims to care about.

Let this be a lesson: Always stand up to a bully.

NEW: The Tate brothers, who have been accused of sexual misconduct in three countries, had their devices seized by law enforcement when they arrived in the U.S.

Days later, a White House official told DHS to return them.

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:

Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.

So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.
