Congratulations to our Best of the Net nominees!
There are many things we will look back on with incredulity but what has happened over the past ten days, is absolutely criminal.

I need a substitute teacher to wheel a TV in from the hallway for the rest of 2025 please
"Let’s put a stop to the same old partisan sniping and divisiveness about healthcare, defense, and who’s striking whom with a bulging sock full of US currency."

Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and they’re still miserable f*cks. Joy Reid nailed it.

oh nooo!
One reason I don’t use #AI tools personally or professionally: These data centers are hiking up regular people’s home electricity bills. We’re paying for it. It’s not worth pricing ourselves out of our own resources to ostensibly save a few minutes on an edit... youtu.be/YN6BEUA4jNU?... #amediting
Libraries are nice because sometimes we just need to go somewhere organized, but preferably not someone’s home so we don’t have to feel like giant disaster people for not having it all together like they do
thank you farm workers!

We should not be rejoicing when authors sue a reader over a review.
"The fascists want us depleted, numb, and cynical." - I keep this top of mind daily and I actively refuse.
Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.
i don’t know but i will find out for ya!

Another blast from the past from another zine that I really miss. Thank you to Second Chance Lit for originally publishing this piece back in 2021.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
The move into our new premises is going really well. But can you help us open sooner? We need 6 very specific units to complete the first phase. They cost £25 each. Can you sponsor one on the link below? We will put your name on the unit as sponsor www.gofundme.com/f/secure-the... Thank you

The Trump administration demanded that cities roll back decades of work aimed at offsetting a fraction of the disadvantages faced by minorities or risk losing federal money, and Columbus got right to work. New from columnist Rachel Wenning. matternews.org/voices/local...
Investigating the DC Police. @joycewhitevance.bsky.social has written an important article about Trump's attempt to discredit and punish the DC police force. He wants to show that crime is not down and that the reports and acts are wrong. Please repost. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Go Dog Go ass president
beyond. fucking. parody.
i honestly would have preferred that. this AI was too good. 20 seconds i thought i was talking to a person. gives me the creeps.
just called to schedule an appointment for a home repair and i literally had a conversation with AI. there was like fake background office conversation and keyboard clicking. mimicked human speech patterns with hmms and umms. took me about 20 seconds to figure out it was AI. my blood feels cold now
wow this is so beautiful!
Calling Gov. DeWine to oppose his sending Ohioans to support Trump's authoritarian takeover of DC is a place to start
Ohio folks, anyone know of any plans to protest Gov. DeWine’s decision to support this awful farce?
kids these days. they don’t got the guts
tell me!!!
yeah it’s for wednesday promo!
🪦 see you on the other side
bless you ❤️🔥
Every time I hear about new Taylor Swift news I just feel so happy for @vicnogaywrites.bsky.social.
i dunno we got a dictator deploying national guard on a whim, i don't really mind if you read old sff or new sff or whatever the industry debate is today, whatever expands your mind and makes you critical and active is great, at this point if you're picking up a book at all i am fucking relieved
The road to authoritarianism is littered with people telling you you’re overreacting.

i didn’t work on my novel tonight. i started s3 of TSITP and rotted in my rattan chair with a beer and a bag of chocolate chips. it was glorious.
An easy thing to do from home is to send a note of appreciation when an organization or institution refuses to comply.
lmaooooo this dumb shit just doesn’t fly anymore
so refreshing to hear someone else say that!!! i’ve always felt villainized for being this way! 💞
do not. DO NOT fucking touch the moon.
i’m like you! actual aggressive is much preferred. let’s just say what we mean!
yes i always invite non family who are close to my kids! i don’t think there is an inherent expectation in an invitation, it‘s just a kindness. if they take it as some passive aggressive move that’s on them to deal with in therapy, not on you to tiptoe around.
usually these clips do not make me smile but every now and then they hit just right and i laugh until i cry so i basically end up in the same place. at least this time i got some endorphins out of it i guess
just heard my favorite song in the wild and now i have to stand outside this store and listen to it like i couldn’t play it on my phone or turntable anytime i wanted to

Ohio has given more than $2 billion to Intel to build those plants. The feds: almost $8 billion. Some of us, at the time, said that maybe a for-profit business could build its own damn plants and that public money should go for public goods. We were told we didn't understand how business works.
congrats!! sounds amazing!

WCK can use your donations. They are on the ground in Gaza, doing what they can in the face of a staggering and ongoing crime against humanity.

on that note, (although probably a sign i need to better check my snap judgements of people), a rural construction team of guys were shit talking trump yesterday. not just making fun of him, but discussing his “brainless, unconstitutional orders that are putting us all in danger.” their words.
"Do geese see God?" is a palindrome. ...but do they???
