Plus what is bone-petite?
Ready for Thanksgiving
Even more so at a time when women are leaving the workforce in pronounced numbers….
Maybe we should try an even older white man next time?
Exactly
Because their message is simpler
That child barely looks 1!
Amen. Late era Twitter is the suckiest thing ever. BlueSky is great and I am enjoying myself and learning on social media again.
I hope you understand that if you show up at a hospital with an infection no one has ever seen before that the US had somewhere you could call. That place would answer, offer testing you can’t get anywhere else and come visit you to solve if necessary.
As we begin a new month, my law firm is litigation 51 voting and election cases in 25 states. 6 in Arizona 6 in Georgia 4 in Florida 4 in North Carolina 8 involve redistricting
I complain about media outlets all the time, so credit where it's due to @wsj.com for this chart which says more than a thousand words could. There's no dancing around it, no explaining it away, there's just the ugly truth. www.wsj.com/wsjplus/dash...
My cat does this. Totally normal then.
This is terrible news
The fault primarily is that of the GOP controlled Congress who have abdicated their role in determining the Governments direction.
Never liked him as an NFL coach
A lot of folks refused to vote for Kamala Harris, enabling a Trump win, because of this delusional notion.
Pritzker: "We don't want troops on the streets of American cities. That's un-American and frankly the president ought to know better. This one doesn't seem to. He hasn't read any books. He doesn't seem to understand the Constitution or the laws."
This week brought wins on all fronts: Catelin Drey flipped a Trump district in Iowa and broke the GOP’s supermajority in the state senate. A federal judge protected Kilmar Abrego Garcia from deportation. And yes, even ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ is about to be empty. Not bad for one week.
This is preached as a primary message in many churches.
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Fair enough, but for foreign visitors to hear the “President” of a Word Cup host country denigrate their homelands (and violently kidnap black and brown visitors) it has to send a really uniquely threatening message. Why come? Just watch it on TV…
At least SOME countries recognize the value of NATURE and all its offerings.
No matter what @MarshaBlackburn keeps saying, it’s not criminals they’re targeting. www.cnn.com/2025/08/30/u...
“…I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.” My latest in @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/honoring-a...
Do they mean people visiting from what our President calls “shit hole countries”?
"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:
Induction stoves are quieter, cooler, and produce less toxic pollution than gas. On the other hand, they also cook better, as a growing number of professional chefs recognize.
Not a terrible outcome
Drive Tesla into the ground
Cubans would play the same game with Castro into his 80’s.
🤔
Inebriation?
Mediocre is very generous here
Yep
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
Azalea Fresh Market in former Walgreens described as City of Atlanta’s first municipal grocery store
70 years ago, on this date, Emmett Till was kidnapped and brutally murdered by white men. His family, including his cousin who was with him at the time, is repeating the train ride he took from Chicago to Mississippi in 1955 to mark the anniversary
On the same day the FDA restricted access to COVID vaccines, the CDC director was sacked and top CDC scientists are resigning. And it’s barely been two weeks since an antivax conspiracy theorist fired 180 bullets at CDC headquarters. None of this is making America healthier. What a disaster.
Here's some good news: Catelin Drey won a special election this week to flip a seat blue in the Iowa Senate and break Republicans' supermajority.
I fear you are correct. The subject of the interview was good though.
Rock on CDC employees! The majority of Americans support you.
Outside the CDC, people are chanting “USA, not RFK.” They are fed up with having one unqualified person dictate the nation’s health. #USANotRFK
The Trump regime needs the remaining government employees to work for them. The most powerful thing they can do now is walk out en masse.
He’s driving revenue far better now than he ever did in the field…
True
So f-ing stupid
GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Facts are stubborn things… Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas…. Alabama is a top 3 murder state. Where is the President? — He isn’t focused on crime & violence. It’s about an expression of authoritarianism.” (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )
FUCK YEAH SCIENCE arstechnica.com/science/2025...
This is a very sobering, very necessary listen.
The erosion of basic principles like due process and the expanding use of our military on domestic soil puts the liberties of all Americans at risk, and should concern democrats and republicans alike.
Taking a step back: The embrace of the unregulated wellness industry and anti-vax hokum was probably inevitable for the right. As the representative of big business interests, it has long had an antagonistic oppositional relationship with science and expertise. Think tobacco and climate science.

Maybe they’ll try to ship him to Uganda tho
I might have to eat at Subway tonight.
Four more top #CDC officials have submitted their resignation in the past few hours - Debra Houry (chief medical officer), Demere Daskalakis (director of NCIRD), Daniel Jernigan (director of NCEZID) + Jen Layden (director of OPHDST) www.nbcnews.com/health/healt... It is horrifying
No, it's not any of that. It's the guns.
It blows my mind too
America in Reverse The ORANGE IDIOT in the White House wants to put America in REVERSE. “Rivian CEO says it 'blows my mind' that the US auto industry is reprioritizing capital toward gas-powered vehicles.” By Henry Chandonnet www.businessinsider.com/rivian-ceo-u...
Is there a catalog of ALL the folks that have been kidnapped? I feel like every single time I hear another story, it’s always the very best kind of people we are forcibly removing from this country.
Yes, yes, of course.
Whew. I can’t imagine that moment.
Isn’t that a Meatloaf song?
I think because he has tried to move past the just talking about it part
The only thing Trump has liberated Americans from is healthcare, education and fair elections.
Japan has just opened its first osmotic power plant 🌊⚡ This works by mixing fresh & salt water across a membrane, creating pressure that drives a turbine to make electricity. This site will generate 880,000 kWh a year...while helping run a desalination plant providing fresh water to the city 👏
Oh…..
Fully agree
The best
I think this is right
Pretty soon they’ll be driving Ubers
My monthly investment in Democracy Docket is some of the best money I spend to support democracy in our country!
Of all the climate (and health!) related topics, in my experience people get the most worked up about the suggestion that they eat less beef. I don't know how the conversation goes over the coming decades, but it's one we need to keep having.
And even more good news. "The ecological damage was so severe that lawmakers reversed course and committed to restoring the river’s natural flow." In Florida! "There’s 40,000 acres of wetlands doing its part, like Mother Nature intended, to clean that water before it reaches Lake Okeechobee."
I think that’s right
And made worse somehow because he actually believes that shit
I celebrate every victory for voting rights, but this one is particularly special. No issue has been more hotly contested or more important to PA voters than this one. The DSCC and DCCC fought hard and it is great to see them prevail. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Just after SCOTUS granted it access to Social Security, DOGE uploaded a database containing the private information of hundreds of millions of Americans to an unsecure cloud. DOGE isn't fighting fraud — it's potentially exposing Americans to more of it. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...
New category!
It’s wild.
Brutal
The Christian right (and fundamentalists in general) are not about “live and let live”
Solar power substituting for diesel ... in the Arctic.
You are so brave.
Japan Post just announced they will no longer deliver mail to the United States, joining Germany, Austria, Denmark, Italy, France, and Sweden.
Dear journalists: The President has not fired Lisa Cook. The President is *trying* to illegally fire her. Your words shape people’s reality. Please be accurate in your reporting.
The sheer amount of time, money, and resources this government has spent to torture one random guy is astounding.
Nazis
Damn. That’s gangster.
I like Moore but can we stop using the rhetorical trope that “if only Trump spent time and observed and learned about the reality on the ground” BS? Trump isn’t going to do anything but throw feces and squawk. He isn’t going to learn, or care about you, or care about anything true.
Common mistake
Good luck finding all them spices and ingredients too.
This is extraordinarily lawless and is happening all over the country, and because of the Supreme Court there is no remedy for whatsoever. The Constitution, if you can keep it, huh.
My lab's been attacked by an anti-wind group and their lawyers. They threatened the science funding of my whole university, to shut me and my undergraduate research assistants up. NYT just covered it. 1/n www.nytimes.com/2025/08/25/c...
It’s not even America first is it?
