“There’s a baby!”

Guns drawn. Windows smashed. With a 1 month old in the car. (They did this as he was coming home from an immigration court appointment— which is illegal in Colorado: coloradosun.com/2025/10/01/i...)

Honestly this is so cool. Finally the sheen is coming off this damn company. A great week for OpenAI - releasing the most expensive model of all time that also commits copyright violations as a service, you spent $9.2bn on compute in six months, and you can’t make a product better than the rabbit r1

There have been two hosts in the history of Reading Rainbow. The Legend of Literacy, LeVar Burton! And... me, Mychal Threets, a librarian 🥹🤯

I am a reader, a librarian because LeVar Burton and Reading Rainbow made us believe and see we belong in books, we belong everywhere ✨

Smiling Mychal with hands raised wears an outer space shirt in a library. It is a still from an episode of Reading Rainbow. LeVar Burton smiles with hands behind his head as he lies down on a colorful pile of books. ENEMY PIE book rests on his chest.

great piece from the always-great @pastpunditry.bsky.social and a welcome antidote to vacuous commentators whose historical memories seem to go back no further than the first iron man movie

My best advice for parents re: harmful content: show genuine interest in the stuff your kid is watching and doing online.

Let them talk your ear off about Minecraft and Roblox and the funny video they just watched. Make them feel excited to share with you, vs making them feel ashamed or judged

“The Dignity and Hope Manifesto” describes how Palestinians have been separated by forced migration, bureaucracy, acts of violence, militarized isolation, and forced dispersal..The document states, “In these days, we write a new chapter, a chapter of a united Intifada that seeks our 1...only goal" 🍉

I started reading this earlier at the doctor's office, but then got home, & other priorities took precedence. Given how demoralized I feel, I am returning to it and hoping that posting quotes that resonate as I go may help me with finishing it. Channeling my past self, who read 450+ books in 2017! 🥹

A Colorado high school teacher has been pulled from the classroom after parents complained she shared someone else's Facebook post about Charlie Kirk. The post urged people to “mourn the children he tried to erase, not the propagandist who put them in the crosshairs. ... He can rest in piss.”

This activist's guitar was destroyed by ICE today. ICE fired multiple rounds of rubber bullets at us, and the guitar was struck. I am trying to raise $800 to help replace their instrument, which they rely on for gigs. I bet someone out here can straight up cover the cost. DM me.
