Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who spared a thought for my country today, who amplified information about the coup d’état attempt, and worried about Brazil’s democratic future—the world’s democratic future. We won! Women won! The Amazon won! Young people won! Democracy won! Hope won!

Q: There's a report that FEMA is telling states to prepare to handle disasters on their own. Any reaction? OSSOFF: So the Trump administration is telling folks across the country to prepare to fend for themselves while taxpayer dollars are sent to back Don Jr & Eric's mining interest in Kazakhstan?

He stopped Ukrainian interceptor drones in flight, letting Russian missiles and drones through that were aimed at civilians.

This is asking for a lawsuit. Wow.

Business schools drive income inequality: "firms that appointed managers with business degrees cut wages and reduced labor’s share of income. Yet these companies didn’t become more productive, nor did they grow ... any faster. What registers as managerial acumen turns out to be wealth transfer"

Sen. Ossoff: "Congress is full of congressmen's sons who are only in Congress because their daddies were congressmen, just like Mike Collins, who are perfectly happy to send other people's children to die in a war. How is this war a success, Mike?"

Someone just left this sweet kitten on my doorstep, but I'm allergic! 😭 Does anyone in Brooklyn want to foster a kitten? Seems to be about 4 months old, clean and well-cared for, and very docile.

The @houstonchronicle.com posted this video and it's pretty jarring. No matter that he was fleeing, law enforcement officers may not use deadly force on someone who poses no significant risk of death or serious injury to others. Deliberately hitting someone with a car is a use of deadly force.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

RFK is a dummy and you are too if you believe his nonsense. No idea how we get through to these people.

The “jaw-dropping” El Niño currently heating up the planet has burst through the highest temperature ever recorded for the phenomenon, several months before its expected peak.

The president is just such a stupid asshole. I know we try to ascribe motives to this guy but he’s at the end of the day, when the story is written, just a dumdum idiot with a tiny brain that don’t work so good.

This is awesome.

Have seen this Nature piece about the effects of X's algorithm mentioned again and it bears repeating; exposure to a right wing algorithm makes you - measurably and predictably - more right wing, even after you stop using it. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

remember when Meta completely lied about user engagement with videos when they were only counting the two seconds of auto play before the video was paused as someone actually watching?

Yikes. Women accounted for all of the job losses and all of the labor force decline in July, according to @nwlc.org

"If there is a question to ask, then, it is this: Why does Musk get a pass? Why do politicians, journalists and commentators treat his far-right racist radicalism as a sideshow rather than the core of his political, ideological and industrial project..." www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/o...

Big news for nerds: The Department of City Planning updated their city planning children's book (original was put out by the LaGuardia administration in 1937) They are giving them away at upcoming Summer Streets events across the boroughs.

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

What the actual fuck? Look, I'm sorry to keep saying this, but the president is clearly a dementia-ravaged necrotic husk of a man whose addled rants bear no actual resemblance to reality and I, for one, think that is concerning.

🤣🤣🤣 Ladies, please form a single-file line!

Imagine that

That’s my mayor

"More than half of those fired or removed by Mr. Hegseth from promotion lists have been female or Black."

We’ve opened the strait that was never closed, ceasing a ceasefire for a war that was never a war, stopping Iran from charging tolls because tolls are illegal, all so Trump can charge his *own* tolls because *his* tolls are legal. This will hurt affordability which is a hoax anyway

*meredith brooks voice* im a mitch im mcconnell i help trump comma donald ive a turtle for a head im probably really dead

"A better and more honest conversation on this subject would be welcome. But at this point, only the terminally naïve could think that Musk is interested in such a conversation. What he mainly seems to be interested in is making it okay to be racist."

ugggghh

"The only trait that consistently predicted objections to remote work was narcissism — the tendency to be self-centered and entitled." Good to see research back up something I've been saying for years.
