This is false.

Jamal Harrison Bryant, a Megachurch pastor, has said the boycott is over. He is not leaders, plural. He and his church were not the ones to start the calls for boycott.

Nekima Levy Armstrong, who founded the Racial Justice Network, and other Minnesota civil rights activists were.

I’m sorry, the commercial for Alexa AI is that Chris Hemsworth thinks Alexa might kill him and his wife just says β€œyou’re crazy” and that’s… it? This is the sales pitch?

If I didn’t know better, I would think I worked here and put this sign up.

If an official commits an impeachable offense and nobody acts to impeach, it is no longer an impeachable offense.

People who oppose impeachment as β€œpointless” because it seems unlikely to result in removal do not understand this very simple point and seem unwilling to even try to understand it.

It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.

NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE

then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"

and i was like.
oh!

"free/cheap/non-toxic youth sports" feels like one of those skeleton keys that would have knock-on effects accidentally fix 100 unrelated things about America

or, you know, even if it didn't, at least a bunch of kids would be able to have fun playing sports

Did you know your SUV is classified as a non passenger work vehicle? Also it’s terrible and I hate it.

If you hear a politician claim there really IS a β€œwar on cars” in your city hall (and we don’t mean in an ironic way, like @thewaroncars.bsky.social does it), you have full and enthusiastic permission to steal @brenttoderian.bsky.social’s reply below. #UrbanTruth

One of the more depressing aspects of the GLP-1 stuff right now is how utterly inescapable it is. Whatever you're doing, wherever you are, there are people shrinking at alarming rates, and endless discussion of said shrinking. There's seemingly no place to just *rest.*

The other day I saw a Nextdoor post saying that people needed to β€œprotect” the city from β€œpredatory high density housing” and I can’t stop thinking about it.

Did you watch all the curling during the Olympics? Are you queer? Do you want to hang with other queer folks and allies playing this fun sport?!

I have a newsletter for that! Subscribe on substack.

The same way you don't want people bombing you and your loved ones is the same exact thing that other people feel where they live.

Nancy by Ernie Bushmiller.

First panel, Nancy talking to a logger sawing a tree and pointing to a carved piece of trunk.

Nancy: Can I have that piece? My boy friend carved it.
Logger: Sure.

Second panel, Nancy is watching the log burn in the fire place.
Nancy: I'm mad at him.

Every once in awhile I think about this Nancy comic and it makes me laugh every single time. Absolute perfection.

β€œThat’s so gay!” is a textbook microaggression: There is nothing homosexual about a making a bad play during a video game, but to call it β€œgay” reinforces the falsehood that being gay is bad. Still, unless you want to explain all this to the young men upstairs β€” who may not have considered the homophobia embedded in their expression β€” focus on the noise problem, instead.
