Was having the tiniest of pity parties being mega frustrated with my very cute 2yo who insisted on scootering in spite of the piles of snow still on the ground here in NYC(I have no clue where that stubbornness comes from 🙃). Ended up carrying his 40lb hiney and the scooter parts of the way.

i think this gets at something important which is that normal people are rightly pissed off that they’re having normal time stolen from them by this ravaging horde of jumped up mall cops. everybody has to work in the morning! why is it THEIR job to hold their community together in such a basic way!
🔥 From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social : “This is nuts. What the fuck is going on? I’ve never protested in my life… they tell you it’s immigrants — it’s fucking anybody. They’re just trying to scare people. I’m not paid to be here. I have to work in the morning. This is wrong.”

I am happy to pay $30 a year for USPS Prime, which delivers mail daily to my home
The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Democrats will stop talking about needing to move towards the center, maybe when there is nothing left of the party. Y'all been tryin' that for the last 20 years. It's been a losing game(and sucks).

Maybe try actually supporting what working folks need? Like, the massive majority of Americans?

Concerning, bc it indicates that the extent of the concentration of power in the hands of a few hyperscalers is way less widely understood than I’d assumed. Which bodes poorly for our ability to craft reality-based strategies capable of contesting this concentration & solving the real problem. 2/

Everyone, I wanted to let you know about the sad news that despite everyone's best efforts Bluestockings will close at the end of the year: www.bluestockings.com - I want to thank every single person who sent books to them through my book drive [will share more later]. A tremendous loss to NYC.

Everyone seems allergic to the word, but Charlie Kirk was not an activist, he was a propagandist. Turning Point was a meme factory backed by a billionaire designed to steer kids towards Christian Nationalism. He didn’t advocate for policy; he spun narratives to change beliefs. Propaganda.

Via @stateline.org: An Aug. 1 jobs report that enraged President Donald Trump showed the United States had 258,000 fewer jobs than initially reported in May and June. It was the smallest monthly job gains since pandemic-era December 2020 and the largest jobs revision, outside recessions, since 1968.

I have kids. They will be college age eventually(very much in spite of this hellscape). We are saving for college.

At what point is this going to be a total waste because the institutions are all bending over and making terrible, autonomy reducing deals?
