I like words.
If I am left with nothing to do but read the books currently in my home, I will be fine, y’all.
Please, for the love of God, leave me behind with all the books because you don’t read. I want to be left behind!
“GOTTA LEARN AI OR BE LEFT BEHIND.” Good. Fuck off! Leave me behind! Enjoy your artbarf rapture, your janky Temu future. I’ll be back here looking at real birds and writing weird, also real, books.

Because it's buried at the bottom of the article and CNN is presenting it in a misleading way: before people worry, the "unknown" part is how the worker was exposed, the pathogen is good old fashioned Y. pestis which we understand extremely well and can treat just fine if caught early

Let's stop using anodyne labels like "the immigration debate" or "controversy over migrants" and start referring to things accurately. "Expelling children who, by law, are entitled to remain in the country" or "imprisoning toddlers in concentration camps" or "pogrom"
"Among the first to appear before the judge was Angel, a 13-year-old. He had no attorney. “Would you like to request voluntary departure, or should I issue a removal order?” the judge asked “I don’t know,” Angel said, bursting into tears: “I have no one. I have nothing.”

Again, to quote the great @tressiemcphd.bsky.social, outrage is a psyop.

Focus, win in November, and let the next reconstruction get going as we head toward 2028.

Jess Rivera over in Wilson County is running one of the most audacious campaigns this year in the North Carolina state legislature, and more folks should listen to what she's saying.

Jess Rivera's got a fight on her hands - but she's used to that. We've got her back.

No worker should be killed on the job, but we still have no enforceable federal heat protection rules. 1/

When I get down about what has become of journalism, of speaking the truth, I think of Jamal.

I lost my Washington Post job.

Jamal lost his life.

Both of us — all we wanted to do was write and help people.

If NFL broadcasters are going to treat Deshaun Watson being ok at QB as a sign that he has been Redeemed For His Past, they must remain ideologically consistent. If he starts playing badly again they have to blame it on his failure to repent for his heinous sexual misconduct
