HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media. Off the top of my head: www.thehandbasket.co 404media.co www.garbageday.email Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.

Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

At Nolan Arenado’s introductory press conference in St. Louis, Bill DeWitt Jr. said it was “incumbent” on the Cardinals to acquire “premium players.” On Tuesday, Chaim Bloom spoke to the perils of “emotion and sentiment and nostalgia.” How they got from there to here: www.bnd.com/sports/mlb/s...

What might account for the abrupt rise and equally abrupt fall, between the 1960s and the turn of the century, of the “golden age” of serial killing? And why were so many of these brutes from the area around Seattle’s Puget Sound? newyorkermag.visitlink.me/GM5SKR
