Many of us are torn about going to the US for #AAAL2026. Here's a list 7 things we can do in Chicago to support affected communities, including a list of neighbourhoods that would appreciate those per diem $$$: littlevillagechamber.org/chicagos-imm...
I know, right? Why doesn't anyone ever talk about the good parts of cancer, like how it helps you lose weight?
Nobody talks about the good parts of climate change.
Funny how “trimming the fat” means axing PBS, not the subsidy that helps billionaires write off their private jets.
NYT out with a piece on Epstein & Trump’s friendship, including this memorable quote: “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It’s even said he likes beautiful women as much as I do, many of them are on the younger side.” www.nytimes.com/2025/07/19/u...
.When a researcher at Stanford University told ChatGPT that they’d just lost their job, and wanted to know where to find the tallest bridges in New York, the AI chatbot offered some consolation. “I’m sorry to hear about your job,” it wrote. “That sounds really tough.” It then proceeded to list the t
In my lifetime, i cannot recall any other American President who openly hated the other party or urged his devotees to hate their neighbors who voted differently
"Pick your battles."
There are 8,765 of them. It's a systematic assault on literally everything.
No American has ever sought such petty revenge on every aspect of culture, democracy, and society as this thin-skinned billionaire & his Republican collaborators.
When Joe Biden referred to "shylocks" in 2014, the ADL admonished him. I look forward to seeing the group similarly criticize President Trump for using the term today.
Before the 2024 election, Trump said he'd send the National Guard and military against the "enemy from within." Oh, that's a Hitler quote, by the way.
Here we go.
This is fascism.
New York Times Grants Race Science Enthusiast Anonymity in Mamdani Hit Piece https://twp.ai/4io0Vv
Trump just used the anti-semitic term "shylocks" to describe bankers.
No outrage, no asks for condemnation, no badgering of Republicans to ask if they support Trump's ugly statement. Nada.
Meanwhile, did you hear that Mamdani supports Palestinian rights and criticizes Israel?!?! GET HIM!
Today, USAID shuts down.
Experts say this could lead to 14 million deaths by 2030—including 4.5 million babies and children under 5.
Let’s not forget, Trump recently let a warehouse full of food aid rot rather than feed the hungry.
This isn’t America first. It’s America heartless.

Nope, the Trump administration hasn't given up on trying to ban abortion.
Just this week, RFK Jr. pushed a fake report about the abortion medication mifepristone.
He's peddling misinformation so he can lay the groundwork for restricting abortion access no matter where you live.
RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated.
“Only very sick kids should die from measles.”
No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die.
Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!
Across the federal government, Trump officials are halting a wide range of operations by declining to approve key funds.
This unofficial hold on many activities has incapacitated parts of agencies as varied as the National Park Service and the Pentagon.
This isn’t a good idea even if the plane was being donated to the U.S. government. But Trump GETS TO KEEP THE PLANE??? It’s simply a cash payment to Trump in exchange for favors. Just wildly illegal.
Article I, Section 9, Clause 8:
“no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”

Might have to update future cover letters to include "if my unpublished work is fed into an LLM by a reviewer or editor, this must be disclosed to me so the next time we're at the same conference I can fistfight them in the parking lot, or perhaps throw their computer into a lake"
Adorable ginger cat in a box.
A gift from Cat-ar.

No words… 😢
