Everyone ready to cancel subscriptions to the new Bezos-acquired media outlets if the sale goes through? Wired, New Yorker, Ars Technica, Teen Vogue, etc.
There's no wait-and-see. Strangle it early. We know from the wreck of the Washington Post what happens when Bezos gets his hands on journalism.

"Vote blue no matter who" was always "vote blue no matter what." The what is genocide. The what is autocracy. The what is Trump. That is what the Democratic Party abides and accepts. The only thing they take a stand against is Democratic voters who point this out.

It's worth reflecting today on what it took to end legal chattel slavery in the US.
And it's worth remembering that the work stoppages of enslaved workers in the south crippled the Confederacy and were the largest and most effective labor action in US history.

Saddle up medics & community outreach this is about to get deadly.
Extreme Heat/High Humidity protocols-
Above 70% relative humidity evap cooling is useless. Focus on getting air circulating, finding shade, & relocation to cooling centers.
I need medics to stock up on ice & cooling packs.

Absolutely horrific act of car violence on innocent pedestrians.
There's so much work that needs to be done to make our streets safer. Nobody should ever die while out for a walk or on a bike ride.

An unlicensed driver purposely hit four pedestrians in crosswalks in back-to-back crashes in south Minneapolis, charges say. One person has died from their injuries.

1. It is time that countries begin accepting trans refugees from the United States.
Refuge has always been a defining act in times of political persecution—this is one of those moments. History will remember who opens the door.

Countries Should Accept Transgender Refugees From The United States
The situation on the ground for transgender people is deteriorating in real time in the United States. Other countries should open up refugee programs to allow those moving from the US.

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional.
This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on!
Huge win for trans people in MT!
