Streaming used to be cheaper than cable. Now it’s cable with worse interfaces and more ads. Peak innovation.

Learned yesterday that AI monitors Bluesky "Starter Packs" to determine who to cite for academic expertise.

So I'm starting one for Media History.

I'm too busy to search for every name. If you're a media historian nominate yourself in the comments and I'll add you.

When Marcie puts you in her Starter Packs, it is a great honor and it implies a Humble TRUST that you will embrace these friends and do no harm. Thank You for including me in yours!

🦋💙💯🔮

Thank You! @mlipsitt.bsky.social
You are a true 🦋 friend, and resist leader!

When you hear the Chief Liar say, “I don’t care” you know he’s telling the truth.

Rest isn’t just sleep.

Sometimes rest is letting yourself stop performing strength for a minute. Sometimes it’s admitting you’re tired.

That honesty hits different. #blackstandardcollective

There’s something deeply disrespectful about alarms. I set them. I know they’re coming but wake up offended like someone slapped me with responsibility. #blackstandardcollective

I started Democracy Docket in 2020 to be a pro-democracy voice in a sea of both sides coverage. Since then the legacy media has gotten worse. Subscribe now to support its work. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Climate news:

Group project where half the class is begging to start and the other half is arguing about whether the project even exists.

(Second group also: drunk, groping kids, spewing hate, deporting people, spitting).

You better believe Swalwell would still have a shot at governor if he ran as a Republican.

I get that “Mexico now has universal healthcare” sounds exciting, but y’all, Mexico has had universal healthcare for a while. It’s just through multiple systems.

What Sheinbaum did is to allow Systems A & B, use C’s hospitals and viceversa. It’s great, but it’s also not this crazy historic thing.

Best of luck ousting your authoritarian, Hungary! We are watching.

Tragic.

BOOM!
South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.

THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

Good morning!

How the fuck is the president and Secretary of State at a UFC fight in Miami while war negotiations affecting the world economy are falling apart.

And I know that MFer isn’t going to try to play golf tomorrow too.

Well if it's the last one glad I stopped by!

LAST PACK FOR A WHILE.

I have a long night in front of me. But for those asking how to stay informed about Trump's latest attack on voting and the legal cases that will follow, my advice is to subscribe to Democracy Docket. I started it for times just like this. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

BSC? Can you get me in?

There’s a whole generation of Black girls stepping into brilliance with no blueprint, no safety net, just raw talent and stubborn hope.

Imagine what they could do if the world stopped treating their potential like an afterthought? Well?

i want to remind folks that while a third of Americans still support Trump, our history shows that 1/3 of citizens opposed leaving the monarchy in 1780s, 1/3 were good with slavery in 1860s, 1/3 opposed womens right to vote in 1900s, 1/3 opposed civil rights in 1960s.

Still kind of scared of him.."say what again." Love this man when out of character!

Legacy media paints Harmeet Dhillon as plucky underdog fighting ‘woke ideology’ To the legacy media, Harmeet Dhillon has spent her career as an underdog — bravely swimming against the liberal tide.

FLASHBACK: When Pete Hegseth endorsed soldiers executing captured alleged combatants

Pete Hegseth speaking on Fox News in 2019 about an American soldier who admitted to the extrajudicial execution of an alleged Taliban bombmaker: “If he committed premeditated murder … then I did as well. What do you think you do in war?” www.mediamatters.org/pete-hegseth...

It is very funny that Trump is blowing up a possible opportunity for californias jungle primary system to lock out democrats because he can't help himself from endorsing a former Fox News host.

Pete Hegseth needs to go, NOW.
 
Since the start of Trump's war in Iran, Hegseth has — without justification — continued firing some of our top military leaders. 
 
Our service members deserve better than a power-tripping warmonger who thinks war is a big video game.
