🤔 Could you tell which party you’re voting for on the sample ballot below? According to the DOJ’s new lawsuit, having Daniel J. Sullivan on Alaska's ballot could confuse voters who want to vote for the incumbent, Sen. Dan Sullivan (R). 🔗: https://demdock.com/4zVexBh

Right? Its bodily autonomy all the way down.

The closest I’ll ever get to being up in lights in Times Square That phrase isn’t Keelah Se’Lai It’s the Quarian phrase I created for #MassEffect Annihilation. The name of my ship Not “by the homeworld I hope to see one day” but “by the homeworld I hope to find one day” I have a lot of feelings…

Wow, does this sound terrific or what?

99% of GOP talking points can be knocked down if reporters do third grade level research and pushback. It rarely happens, which is why it's so jarring when you actually see it 🙃

I've been dealing with book bannings for over half a decade now, but this one is hitting me hard. I think it's the combination of blatant discrimination, dishonesty, and the fact that it's in my own neck of the woods. theauthorvillage.substack.com/p/banned-by-...

So EPA staff warns--above-don't strike comprehensive fenceline EtO monitoring from the rule. Bad idea. Industry wants it gone. What happens? Szabo instructed the staff to remove fenceline as across-the-board mandate. Massive industry victory. We got the draft decision (not yet public)

The fact that we've agreed to call these gambling sites "prediction markets" furthers their bullshit. They predict nothing and it's a disgrace that news orgs have partnered with them and pretend they have news value. THEY'RE JUST A BUNCHA LOSERS GAMBLING.

Banning trans kids from sports is fucked up. And you better believe there are terrible people and parents who see "Fairness in youth sports" as a much bigger battlefield that will include girls who are too tall, black kids who are too fast, etc etc

Check out how easy this is.

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

In Michigan, Musk paid for calls targeting Muslims that painted Democrats as pro-Israel, and also paid for calls targeting Jews that painted Democrats as pro-Hamas.

This is fucking lunacy. The only people getting robbed in D.C. restaurants were those prodigals patrons leaning too hard into the overpriced wine list.

New — I wrote about Vivek Ramaswamy’s weaponization of Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse and how it’s only the latest symptom of a Republican party flush with rape apologists, led by an adjudicated rapist:

It really shouldn't require people to debunk this sort of absolute gutter racism but Somalis are strikingly hard-working people and this was noticeable basically as soon as they started arriving. They came legally, they're hard working, they learn English, they make their kids do their homework.

Absolutely disgusting, but what can we expect from an adjudicated rapist and a congenital liar?

reminder that this is the last weekend for this sale!

To folks who follow me on Bluesky & appreciate the journalism I do. Can you please read the EPA story and post on social media platforms if you are so moved. This kind of work is important. But it only matters if people read it and engage with it. Here's the link. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

Jfc—Cuba in the crosshairs like attacking Venezuela and Iran isn’t enough war crimes and warmongering?

"When my Chinese colleagues sent me a full-size 3D print of this skull, I couldn’t believe it. I’ve seen hundreds of fossil human skulls, and this was the biggest I had ever set eyes on." 🧪🏺

“We thought the funding the administration offered us for the illegal secret deal was from Jared’s secret illegal Gulf state influence find — but turns out it was from a sanctioned Russian company” is the price you pay for dealing with these turds www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

Is it a neighborhood near you? Here is the map, with names of the polluters and locations. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

Most surprising moment of this reporting effort was when we pressed the Russian energy company to concede it was financing a US gas project in Alaska, which has promoted itself as a patriotic push toward U.S. energy dominance.....

A Russian energy giant secretly funded an effort for an Alaska gas project. The deal has been discussed in talks to end the war in Ukraine.

Hey all, yell louder about this, please. I can't, for work-related reasons, but yell.

The next time you complain about the endless deluge of fundraising texts & spam email from Dem campaigns, keep in mind that it would take *40,000* $25 donations to cancel out 1/445th of what Elon Musk has spent this cycle.

Not a single parent has filed a book challenge in Palm Beach in two years. The district just removed 1800 books anyway, because AI told them to. There are many reasons that is unthinkable but let's not forget AI DOES NOT HAVE INFORMATION ABOUT THE BOOKS. IT CANNOT READ THEM. It just makes crap up!

Three years ago, my dad said that all fish are the same shape. Out of spite, I decided to draw all 478 families of bony fish listed in Nelson 2016. There's still some stuff I need to edit and some fish I want to redraw but, after 985 days, I finished my big dumb fish project last night.

Enormous news. A melanoma vaccine, one of the most deadly cancers out there. Science is good and helpful and there should be more of it. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

So Eloisa James's latest book was given a cover made with GenAI. The publisher has withdrawn it and commissioned a new cover with a different artist. Props to the author for putting her foot down and the publisher for withdrawing it promptly.

To use #science for evil is a deliberate choice! Eventually, people will suffer because of the billionaires' poor judgement and psychopathy, and the unwillingness of our leaders. But hey, can't wait for the next time I hear "science shouldn't be political"! 🧪

The deal came together at roughly the same time as equity investments from Skydance’s other investors, including board member Laurene Powell Jobs, according to people familiar with the matter. Read the full story from Rohan Goswami: www.semafor.com/article/10/2...
