I've talked about Substack (& closed platforms in general) a lot over the years, but *this* was the most fired up I've gotten; I think it's because @anamariecox.bsky.social + @mike-eagle.bsky.social set such an amazing tone for the conversation. I'm so glad with how this came out. Please do listen!

If your friends on Substack don't want to read any of the long essays and articles about The Substack Problem, send them this @anildash.com explainer video. (From his @pastduepodcast.com interview.) It's not just Nazis, it really isn't. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWdS...

Grateful to hear that Philz came to their senses, or came to kindness, or something. All pride flags welcome

I’m stopping in Philz wherever I see them and making sure the customers know about the new policy of removing pride flags. It didn’t go over well in the college town of Claremont #PhuckPhilz

We deserve inclusive workplaces and gathering spaces. Nearly 11,000 HRC supporters and community members have spoken out — join them and tell Philz Coffee HANDS OFF OUR PRIDE FLAGS: hrc.im/philz

This is so depressing

Fifty research lab shuttered. Countless decades-old experiments and scientific records lost. Thousands of forest scientists and experts essentially forced into retirement. The destruction of science on a massive scale.

Feeling very consumery. Want to shop but have no money. I’d this what most Americans feel like? Having feelings that shopping will solve?

One way to explain it to centrists is, instead of killing 100 innocent schoolchildren, what if they had used your tax dollars to feed those 100 kids steak without checking if they were poor? A bomb is like a really, really expensive steak. Maybe even worse.

As I approach 1 year of unemployment, I’ve had to let up on seeing live performances, which was my resolution following COVID. If you can afford it, go!!!!!

I dunno, guys, I think maybe we should stop electing sociopaths.

Elliot@1t2ls.bsky.social

ah yes let’s extort literally one of the poorest countries in the world (per capita GDP in Zambia is ~$4k/year) by denying them medicine so we can steal their minerals. Christian Nationalism folks.

Hi San Francisco! I miss you. And I feel out of place. I’ve been poor in this town before, but that was when I knew the town and how to get by.

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America. And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.

Under a new policy released Thursday, the Trump Administration will test conversion therapy on trans people in prisons. It explicitly states that it aims to help trans people “recover,” all the while forcibly detransitioning them both medically and socially. transitics.substack.com/p/the-trump-...

I did Budget precheck- there’s a sign, but the lane is closed. Instead I’ve had 5 customers ahead off me in the regular line. It’s been over half an hour and now I’ve still got one person ahead of me. Ugh.

Bezos is a douche and giving a bad name to douches everywhere

A few hundred people are gathered outside the Washington Post headquarters in downtown D.C. protesting the massive layoffs that hit yesterday. “Save the Post!” they’re chanting.

Mostly no one was surprised when I came out as #nonbinary about a year ago. I’m grateful for those that came before me who had to bear the brunt of the transphobia for me. I’m sad for those who live in areas that do not accept them. Sending you the love.

apparently “bari weiss doesn’t actually know what journalism is” extends to getting basic facts like the name of a subject right

Brandon Friedman@brandonfriedman.bsky.social

Promoting the editor-in-chief's personal side project. Zero named sources in a story that promotes the editor-in-chief's personal political position. Misspelling the subject's name. It took one day for CBS News to become a conservative blog. www.cbsnews.com/video/some-n...
