One of the last bastions of real journalism in America is being destroyed.

These people were the heirs to Lee Miller's WWII photojournalism when she showed the world things they didn't want to see and did it in Vogue.

Thank you for all you have done folks.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

For 40+ years, evolutionary ecologist Craig Benkman has tracked crossbills across North America—showing how these finches & conifers evolved together in a remarkable coevolutionary dance. 🌲🕊️
Their bill shapes even match the cones they feed on.

MSNBC just had a panel of two anti-Mamdani people--including former GOP congressman--and no other people, to discuss the NYC mayor's race.

I don't have to tell you how it went.

Come on MSNBC, cut this crap.

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.

She was later released with NO CHARGE.

A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

You decide…

My great-grandparents and grandparents worked for the railroad.

My mom worked as a maid.

I'm the only one on the Los Angeles side of the family to finish high school. And the only one to go to college.

There won't be a fourth generation to pass down the insistence of getting an education

Arrianna Marie Planey, PhD MA @arrianna-planey.bsky.social · 23h

I'm 4 generations removed from chattel slavery. After two generations of sharecropping, my grandparents insisted that their children go to college and get jobs in education, healthcare, or finance. Or join the military.

And the next generation was taught the same.

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · 1d

“Humans can just go get manual labor jobs if desk jobs are repaired with AI” is both not going to suffice to provide enough jobs and is also going to result in massive societal anger because manual labor jobs often *are terrible*, which is why people have worked hard to avoid them for generations.

They're shutting down every enclave of independent and critical thought in big media.

From Vogue's announcement of its takeover:

"Teen Vogue will focus its content on career development, cultural leadership and other issues that matter most to young people."

In other words, teaching compliance
