When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

Susan Collins told Mainers she had ICE under control. She didn’t. Now a 3-year-old girl is growing up without her father. Enough press releases. Enough excuses. Use your power for good.

New Orleans folks: Our cleaning lady and her husband, both of whom had been working and living here for over a decade, were taken while visiting the Tall Ships last month and have been in detention since, likely facing deportation. Remind your people that there's still danger out there.

This is Arlo. He was on a walk when he found a missing and injured dog by following a trail of blood. We're awarding Arlo and his keen nose with our highest honor, a 15/10.

👀 "more black voters (41 percent) now identify the Supreme Court as the top threat to their community than the Trump presidency (39 percent). In June 2024, just 26 percent said the Court was the top threat." The word is getting out re John Roberts MAGA #SCOTUS.

thebulwark.comDems See a Major Black Voter Backlash to SCOTUSThe Supreme Court’s gutting of the Voting Rights Act unleashed a wave of redistricting. Did it unleash a wave of voter anger too?

This is Ramsey. He is a mail delivery dog. Shipping is free, and while packages might not be handled with care, they are handled with enthusiasm. 14/10 (TT: rhiannoninthe904)

This is Maple. She closes her eyes while enjoying ice cream in order to really savor the moment. Also believes it prevents brain freeze. Just can't prove it yet. 12/10 (TT: maplethechocolatesausage)

Paulina Mangubat stands by the "ugly f--k" tweet: “All we did was say what everyone else is thinking, which is, ‘Shut up—that’s not what people care about right now," she tells me: newrepublic.com/article/2111...

Trump has murdered 186 people, most of them fishermen, since September 2025 with no information regarding who they were. He is an evil man.

At least 186 people have been killed in U.S. military strikes on vessels suspected of drug trafficking since early September, according to reporting by The Associated Press. theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/at-least-1...

still not quite over the fact that i watched 15 year olds get sued for millions of dollars for downloading twelve songs and now we all have to accept AI slop because every tech company in the known universe decided that IP laws don't exist now that they're inconvenient for them

They don't care about the animals. They just want to destroy science.

Critics say the proposal was made without consulting experts, does not specify how the transfer or lifetime care of the animals would be funded, and could endanger the monkeys if they’re not carefully integrated into their new home. My latest for @science.org

wow — the preprint host, arxiv, is banning authors for a year if they submit papers with hallucinated citations 🤖

Helen Branswell 🇨🇦@helenbranswell.bsky.social

I find this unsettling: A new study in #Lancet shows that the number of faux citations in scientific articles is on the rise, and #AI is likely to blame. @aniloza.bsky.social reports. www.statnews.com/2026/05/07/l...

This headline from Justice Roberts and the red banner of what Tennessee just did to Memphis after the SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act..

jsxover.bsky.social reposted

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

Ari Berman@ariberman.bsky.social

Breaking: Tennessee Republicans pass new 9-0 gerrymander after SCOTUS destruction of Voting Rights Act eliminating state’s only majority-Black district & last Democratic seat. Splits Memphis, which is 63% Black, into 3 districts to disenfranchise Black voters. Quite literally a return to Jim Crow
