i early voted today in the usa because i figure it can't hurt

reading this, recalling how quickly the killing of Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman slipped out of the news

Your spooky season reminder that there is a ~40% jump in pedestrian fatalities on Halloween compared to control days (and a 10x increase in risk for little kids). Closing streets is a great idea. It’s also an excellent night to avoid driving if you can. Source: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

i would recommend hiring someone who is festive and also hitting them protein goals

For many years, ICE didn't have its own medical claims processing for detainees, running 3rd party medical bills through the VA's system. Last year, right-wing influencers convinced the Trump admin to abruptly cancel this contract. With no replacement, ICE specialized medical care has gone unpaid.

just blocked someone who posted a deepfake bikini image of Seattle's mayor here, so people are definitely continuing to be very normal about having a millennial woman in charge

yes, lake ontario should be renamed to ontario. ontario makes more sense. lake ontario is like atm machine. it already means lake or water. JUST ONTARIO.

ye olde dial-up internet noise is practically silence compared to this

On today’s grim one-year anniversary of the Trump administration’s boat strikes campaign — which has snuffed out at least 227 lives — it’s more important than ever to insist that the strikes are not simply inhumane and ineffective, but illegal. My reflections in @thehill.com :

as a voter in somerville, ma the primary we just had was amazing and honestly i am really happy to see more elections with challengers. so many people who care so much . . . it can only be a good thing.

"This film broke my heart for a generation of queer kids in the folds of repressive forms of faith, reaching out for connection and being met with fists, folded arms, and silence. We need each other. It is not good to be alone." 💙

How can we think is OK? Surely this must demand some pretty fundamental questions about the society we've built. As IPPR says, we can not blame young people, and must look to structural and social issues shaping childhood and youth, and, importantly, must respond with more than "youth policy".

I agree that all sport leagues have to protect their people--sports betting, misogyny and hatefulness are not fancy and new.

soooo coool that these vaccines are stable at 30 C!

hikes should be to the needs of the weakest hiker. its better to be prepared and then bail to keep your group together so everyone gets back to the start safely.

Remarkable how little political noise it's made here in the US that a major American naval base in Bahrain was basically destroyed, and that this was kept quiet for five months www.nytimes.com/2026/08/14/u...

narcan slander is making the rounds. narcan saves lives. there are rare instances where someone is truly allergic. people can still experience negative side effects, but bonus will be alive to deal with them.

woke 1.0! i love that we call that time that. aren't we due for woke 2.0?

Can’t find us at an event? Look for the big pink tent

lilliputian bottle of soda, child is smaller than a field mouse

but . . . those light cycles are less than 2 minutes each? at worst it should take 10 minutes unless you're already a part of a tracfic jam in which case, there are other ways to avoid those lights. i figure the reason for the change is unalived child because it usually is.

"Drivers struck and killed 7,080 people walking in the United States in 2024, 72% more than in 2009, when pedestrian deaths were at their lowest."

"I want you to panic." But not from @thunberggreta.bsky.social —this time from a firefighter whose face betrays his despair—he understands all too well how deeply political denial still hinders action. He was @zackpolanski.bsky.social s press conference. We need more of this involved people at mics.

Camels may not survive new heat in Sahara.

you have been rendered incapable of not using AI: that's what billionaire ghouls have done to us all. if you're alive in 2026, you'd have to go beyond being off-grid. you'd need to lockdown every area of your life.

NEW: This week we broke down five ways Trump could rig the midterms. Meanwhile, his DOJ is now 0-21 in its crusade for state voter rolls--0-22 if you count an appeals court loss. Also, we're officially in the "quiet period" when states are barred from systemically removing people from those rolls.

also young men. i'm happy gen z is normalizing mobility aid usage.

I ride this stretch regularly, and it’s bitterly gratifying to get this written confirmation that Lynnway sucks because community leaders in Lynn give no shits whether I live or die.

I understand that funding bodies want to go all in on AI as the shiny new innovation thing. But if all the grants start going to AI at the expense of everything else then the research sector is going to end up looking like a farm with dozens of threshers hacking away in a field with no wheat.

Congratulations to everyone who worked their asses off for something that any semi-decent and ultimately self-interested government should have done in penance www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/b...

@thembta.bsky.social great job with the QR codes on sandwich boards! we hit the need for a greenline shuttle today and got the cross streets for our shuttle
