i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

The vile attacks on Amy Acton need to be seen in the context of a party that *needs* people to believe women fabricating sexual assaults is common as rainwater. Because it’s pretty much the only way to evade the conclusion that the president is a rapist.

I've spent deeply happy hours here building tables. Thousands of kids have learned craft here. One of the world's great concentrations of wealth, and the Bay Area can't keep a community gem like this going? The second biggest cultural institution in Oakland? www.sfchronicle.com/entertainmen...

Surprising no one given the current state of the CDC.

JD Vance concedes that Trump is a tinpot dictator.

I'm glad Koenig got a post-Trek turn as the mysterious telepath spymaster Bester on Babylon 5. A whole clutch of Easter eggs—named for a great old sf writer, did the Prisoner "be seeing you" thing, and was, well, him. Like an elder blessing the show.

Hey I'm back haunting Business Insider today with some thinky thoughts about Hollywood drawing its latest crop of villains from Silicon Valley...and why the fun show "Cupertino" is evidence the techlash has spread to your grandma's living room. www.businessinsider.com/hollywood-vi...

There's an interesting and dismaying timeline here, in which the company, the FDA and USDA identified the problem weeks ago but no public recall of the tainted chicken wraps was ordered by the government. The information they've shared appears to be due to excellent reporting by @usatoday.com.

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

Thank you, ladies.

Hi. I, a trans woman, am the Executive Producer of this show. I wrote the question. He called trans girls men. He has now said it in three different places in the past week.

In a just world, taxpayers choose elected representatives to decide how their collective tax dollars are spent, but billionaires think that by virtue of being special little boys who get away with breaking the law, they alone get to decide how billions are spent and we should worship them for it

Congratulations to my friend Lula on his electoral victory. Democracy and multilateralism have won in Brazil. Europe’s partnership with Brazil is thriving. We will remain by your side for the years to come.

Don't Obey In Advance means also Don't Doom In Advance. Don't do fascist's work for them.
