Portland has had this for about 10 years now. The Tillicum Bridge is a beautiful and fun addition to the city. It's a great spot for watching the city

Went to the MA statehouse today to educate lawmakers about the massive concerns with H 5366, the social media “ban” legislation that just passed the House.

Everyone I met with said they were getting a ton of calls on this.

She had a plan for everything!

I worked at an Amazon warehouse for 14 hours & quit after returning from the bathroom to find our trainer lying face down on the floor, her face smashed from passing out.
These events - deaths & injuries are very common at their warehouses.

The “Calvin’s dad explains two types” meme, inspired by a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. Clockwise from top left: 1) Calvin’s dad walks into frame to find Calvin trying to operate a record player. The dad says: “There are only two industries left in America: gambling, and fraud.” 2) The dad shows where the record goes, and how to turn on the player, while Calvin watches. Dad says “Derivatives? Gambling. AI? Fraud. Video games? Gambling. Social media? Fraud.” Calvin says “yeah”. 3) With one hand open palm up, Calvin’s dad cheerfully explains to Calvin out of frame below him, “The stock market looks like gambling, but it’s actually fraud.” 4) In bed in a dark room, Calvin clutches at his pillow, eyes wide in existential terror. There is no text in the panel.

URGENT! The Massachusetts House just passed a "social media ban" that would force YOU to upload a government ID or submit to a face scan to post online. CALL YOUR STATE SENATORS! 978-485-4694

Okay bluesky I need your help

I live in Massachusetts. You might think we're a bastion of lefty intellectualism but our state government a clusterfuck of post-puritan real estate bros

Reskeet this. Text it to your "friends from home"

Help this find every masshole poster who will know what to do

But I'm gay and have a trans child so maybe that explains a bit of me.

I just turned 60. America doesn't have a politician left enough for me. I voted Republican once (I'm still embarrassed to admit I voted for Reagan when I was 18. I think I might be trying to atone for that.) Just give us universal healthcare, no wall street home ownership, universal basic income.

‘Everyone is Replaceable’: Death Rattles Oregon Amazon Facility A worker died at Amazon’s Troutdale warehouse last week. Employees were told to look away.

For more than a week, Amazon has managed to keep a death at its Troutdale, Oregon, facility out of public view.

Workers I spoke to are pissed.

There appears to be a pattern of sorts happening in the U.S. The national media isn’t covering many of these fires happening across the country. However, local media networks are and you have to search for them. This is what I’ve found so far.

Absolutely remarkable statement from Pope Leo today.
One for the history books

He says that like he thinks that's a normal thing to do. Fucking cops.

Breaking: Trump orders the dismantling of the US Forest Service.

All regional offices are being shut down and the research program destroyed.

Formerly domestic rabbits have taken over several towns on the Oregon coast. It's quite a problem but too big to simply catch one.

You can't separate anti-immigrant and anti-trans politics from what is happening with Iran. When MAGA picked transphobia and nativism as its organizing principle, it selected for the capacity to treat entire categories of people as civilizational threats whose elimination is an act of self-defense.

Any day on the OR coast is a good day!

I'm still a 413!!

It made a positive difference in the life of Massholes on day one! (I couldn't think of what word to use to identify people from MA - I mean no disrespect - I was happily one for many years. Massachussetions? )

Unforgivable.

Erin is getting pushback for this, but she's not wrong. Mamdani could be doing more.

People seem to be confusing their personal agreement that robustly supporting the trans community would be too politically risky for Mamdani and not worth it with Erin being wrong about what he could do.

The Horrors That Could Lie Ahead if Vaccines Vanish Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria were no longer available.

We decided to illustrate it.

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Trump pointing upward at text on a green background with a gas sign behind him. Text reads: "March 2026. New Record: Largest Monthly Increase in Gas Prices in History."

Trump did that.

Oh hello it's Trans Day of Visibility and, like many trans people, I'm only visible if I say something.

If you think you don't know anyone trans, you probably do.

If you want to read my post about how I understand my gender, it's at daniellaurison.com/n...

4 frame comic. first frame shows a swimmer with a one piece bathing suit. 2nd frame shows an enthusiastic kid with a shirt written waterpolo on it. 3rd shows a man with a shirt that reads "someone I love is trans". 4th frame shows a girl with a trans flag. text reads, across the frames : Being visible or outspoken as a trans person will make you a target of violence and hatred. but it will also show every other trans person that it's possible to exist in their space. visibility empowers and changes heart. I believe in a future in which trans people aren't forced to live in fear, shame and secrecy.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility. May all my beautiful trans siblings continue your work to shape a world of gender liberation that others could not even dream of.

I really needed to read this reframing of ADHD. As a person who is extremely curious it resonated and helped me connect some dots: It's not that I'm incapable of focusing, but there's so much to learn and explore! When my brain is not learning, it wants to move on! Great piece @neuranne.bsky.social
