thank you for the outpouring of support!
those of us laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday are now sharing our GoFundMe to help us cover our emergency expenses now that we've lost our incomes, as we get back on our feet.
If he actually does get a flying Tesla made, I’m sure he’ll forget to add in terrain avoidance to Autopilot. So we might have more cars going through house roofs…
Well, just look at who’s currently promising flying cars today, and that kinda gives a reason why we don’t have them yet.
If you're a writer/other creator in the United States, consider creating an LLC for your business and then signing up for a local area Chamber of Commerce. Many of them have health insurance plans that pool their members and members of other CoCs to create insurance efficiencies relative to ACA.
Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.
RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.
We could have had cancer vaccines, and instead the United States will contribute nothing whatsoever to mRNA research, condemning millions of people worldwide to unnecessary illness and death
I just have to say, as a historian of the Reconstruction-era Klan, that masked paramilitaries are very bad and masked vigilantes are even worse and there are causal links between the two and none of this is good for democracy.
again, don't rank cuomo. just the shittiest, pettiest, laziest person.
@asavage.bsky.social hey Adam, American Science & Surplus needs some help. You’ve occasionally spoken about the shop when you’re in Chicago. Would you help get the word out? gofund.me/f33f44a7
Pritzker would be a better bet. He’s generally done good work as governor. Even pushed a failed State Tax rate change (from flat to graduated). He’s a fighter, and has LGBT family that’s also former military.
Holy shiitake! Trump fired Shira Perlmutter, the Director of the US Copyrights Office apparently because she refused to let Elon Musk raid the place to steal author’s intellectual property rights

The cost of Grok: "I can't breathe at home, it smells like gas outside. How come I can't breathe at home and y'all get to breathe at home?"
It ages me, but my literal first words were “Nanu Nanu”.
20 million Americans might lose their health coverage, just so Republicans can give billionaires a tax cut.
So basically there's a cabal of billionaire broligarchs, far right propagandists, and reactionary centrist journalists all on group chats radicalizing together and exerting coordinated narratives and influence on media and politics

“Everyone should have a plan before travel,” EFF’s Sophia Cope told @miamiherald.com. If an officer wants a device unlocked, “the traveler has to know what they’re going to do in that moment, either they’re going to comply or they’re not going to comply.”
Bear in mind, Judge Wilkinson is a Reagan appointee who was repeatedly on SCOTUS shortlists. This is both an admonition and a dire warning.
This Tufts student was grabbed off the street, cuffed and taken out of state solely because she co-wrote a completely respectful oped in the student paper.
And Rubio’s State Dept now admits they have nothing more damning than that.

PLEASE do not rank him on your ballot, fellow New Yorkers. He's a clown. Put five other names on your ballot, none of them being his.

Century+ duration electronic data preservation is in fact an unsolved problem, but magnetic tapes set read-only are as close as we have right now. This is a massive, active research problem at Amazon, Google, Microsoft, others. www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear... Some tape can be replaced, not all.
Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator.
In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”
Apparently DOD went through the web pages for Medal of Honor recipients and marked those of non-white dudes as "DEI", which also broke links.
The shameless racism is nakedly on display.
Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.
The Trump administration is explicitly targeting libraries, museums, and the press in the latest executive order.
This is not paywalled and I need you to actually read it.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Gov. JB Pritzker
Gov. Tim Walz
these are our party leaders now, ignore all other opinions
