Opening Keynote, Dr. Sawsan Jaber! @sjeducate.bsky.social

She is a multi-award-winning educator, best selling author, community activist, and consultant. Her tireless fight for freedom of speech, civil rights, and equity for all serves as an invaluable example.

Consuming manosphere bullshit about being an alpha provider while you act like a weak piece of shit who needs violence to get pleasure instead of just fucking being someone who attracts pleasure is not it. Get help. Humanmaxx instead.

Doesn’t matter if is 62 million or 1. If you fantasize, post about, talk about, plan, or actually assa*ult women, or anyone, you are not a man. You are a predator. Get help.

An mRNA treatment for PANCREATIC CANCER was in trials, among many other uses. Choosing to end this research is choosing to sentence millions to an early, painful death

Awesome filing taxes seeing in real time what horrific violence, greed, and utter stupidity my contribution is funding.

We could and should be building.

Michigan House blocks funding for Flint water crisis programs Republicans in the Michigan House voted to cancel $8.3 million of funding for programs aimed at supporting Flint water crisis victims and potentially the RxKids expansion.

The cuts affect support services for Flint students, including psychologists, nurses, social workers, and counselors

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

So… this is happening. 🥹

Contact | U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer of New York The Official U.S. Senate website of Senator Chuck Schumer of New York

I wrote to him and you can call or write him too, especially if you are a NYS voter.

It is long past time Chuck steps down as Senate Minority Leader. Frankly, he should resign. He cannot meet the moment and endangers us all.

I am so incense at @schumer.senate.gov’s lack of leadership. Record public sentiment in favor of Dems not even one week ago and he can’t hold the Senate caucus together. He just nullified the fight and risk the House Democratic caucus has undertaken AND sold out the American public’s healthcare.

We sold out 2 tamale vendors, bought out 2 more vendors, and absolutely swarmed a family owned bakery. It was a good day with some the very best of #BikeChi 🥰 for the 4th installment of the Street Vendor Bike Tour. We persist. ✊🏽

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

‘You Are All Terrorists’: Four Months in a Salvadoran Prison

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

Wow, really appreciate this deep reporting on how Equifax stands to reap considerable gains under Medicaid work requirements — including some new visibility into "prices per ping"

Speaker Johnson is putting House in recess for another week IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SHUTDOWN. Instead of GOP members returning on Tuesday, they now won’t come back until after 10/19.

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

ICE agents raid South Shore apartments; Trump says Chicago could become military training ground ICE agents raided a South Shore apartment building overnight as the city braces for a possible military deployment.

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’”

It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

Graphic for PEN America report titled 'Banned in the USA: The Normalization of Book Bans'. Features a stack of colorful books in front of a blackboard with '22,810 books banned in U.S. public schools, 2021-2025' written in chalk.

🧵 In 2025, book censorship in the United States is rampant and common. Never before in the life of any living American have so many books been systematically removed from school libraries across the country.

If you're a government employee and you want to talk, you can reach me at Vittoria89.82 on Signal. We can speak anonymously.

Dr. Goodall was speaking in defense of climate justice and peace until the very end. Grateful we lived in the same time as her. She inspired millions to see intelligence and grace in the animal kingdom and how interlocked humans are with nature. We must fight on.

Rest in Power Dr. Goodall.

Adams dropping out of a race he had no chance of winning so he can make Trump happy perfectly sums up what it was like to have him as mayor.

I wonder what it's like to be as shameless as Eric Adams. Just going through life openly being a corrupt piece-of-shit. Truly a wonder to behold.

While it’s not surprising he is doing this, I was holding on to hope that his ego kept him in just to spoil Cuomo chances even further.

Indeed.

LLMs are LLMs.

Machine learning is machine learning.

AIs are Astro Boy, Robby the Robot, Cmdr Data, the Ghost in the Shell Puppet Master, etc. I will not use the term for anything less.

Don’t feed the hype machine. Don’t call it AI.

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar
