Meera

This is one reason why everyone with a bar license should be lining up to do pro bono habeas petitions for detainees right now.

I know so many people who are doing this. A few hours of training and you will save lives and families.

Jerks: AI might have consciousness

Me: Don’t think so

Cybertruck: I AM AN ABOMINATION… PLEASE LET ME DIE…

The machine god is screeching at us "you are wrong to have made me" in the only language it knows, and we refuse to listen

not a democracy

this would fix us

Who the fuck is demonizing homeowners? It's landlords we hate

Stuff like this is just designed to further normalize gAI use to write; to numb us to criticism; to humanize LLMs and dehumanize actual authors and artists: I detest this kind of bs

A+

Imagine being so entitled that you get offended by not being able to bring dirt through someone else’s home

Denmark responded to 1973 oil crisis by reducing car-dependency. Let's do that now. - Streetsblog Chicago "The government had to introduce car-free Sundays. And then people realized that the car-free Sunday was the best day of the week."

FYI the 1970s oil crisis was the impetus for Copenhagen turning into a cycling city

Crustose lichen mix: Candelariella (yellow), Rhizocarpon (dark grey) Dimelaena (off white) and Acarospora (brown). Photo covers about 6cm, left to right. NWT, Canada. #lichen #fungi #fungifriends

as someone who has a really strict pro-social code for herself: it’s hard to convince people to obey the social contract in the name of fairness and honesty when literally every interaction every American has with ANY system is designed with the intent of screwing them over for money

58% of likely 2026 voters want Democrats to keep control of the Washington State Legislature in 2027, a record in NPI's polling - NPI's Cascadia Advocate A historic percentage of voters in the Evergreen State plan to vote for Democrats to be their state legislators in the 2026 midterms. It's a watershed finding in the history of NPI's generic legislati...

Democrats are in no danger whatsoever of losing control of #waleg in 2026. So if a good policy proposal didn't pass this year, it's because Dems just didn't want to do it.

This also suggests Dems will not lose seats for passing an income tax, just as they didn't in 2024 or 2025 after raising taxes.

Screenshot of four different jobs from the NY Mag feature about what people make in NYC: "Home Health Aide $23,000 I've been a home health aide for ten years. My main patient last year was in Brooklyn. I spent most of my time taking care of her. I worked two days a week, and I was being paid for 13 hours of work each day - my agency, Loyal Home Care, budgets eight hours of sleep and three hours for mealtimes into our wages. But I was basically working 24 hours a day. She was active, and I was worried she would fall, so I would watch her all day and night. This is a pretty common experience for health aides. The agency can deny our overtime, but you can't deny a patient. When they say, "Oh, I need a drink of water; I need to use the bathroom," how could you possibly say "no" to them? Bronx Day-Care Worker $31,000 $16,600 from day-care profits $14,400 from trainings and consulting Last year, I lost a lot of kids. I live in the Bronx, and a bunch of families in my neighborhood lost their child-care vouchers. We're talking about people who make as much as I do; most of the moms I work with are home health aides. They can't afford full-time child care. If I have 16 kids, I can pay myself for 40 hours of work. But last year, I didn't, and obviously I'm still doing the same amount of work. I've been running the day care out of my home for more than seven years. It's a profession I entered out of necessity and have stayed in out of passion. I pay for everything - food, cleaning supplies, toys - and we have to meet the same requirements as a large company in terms of paying for liability insurance, which can feel pointless in this industry. I mean, if something happens to one of my children, I lose my license. End of story."

It's all so clear

I miss being anon. An “ally” photojournalist told the feds who runs the @eyerolls accts (knowing I have a trans teen at home) and it’ll never be the same.

There are so many reasons we should be allowed to be anonymous online. Freedom of speech being just one of them

“I support Newsom having equal access to everything but oxygen.”

Last year, Live Nation donated $500,000 to Trump’s inauguration fund.

NO NO NO YOU DON’T

The spider distribution system is similar to the cat distribution system, but distributions take place much more frequently. Any spiders you find on your person/inside your home have been sent by the universe because you need each other. Such spiders are now your responsibility, and rule your heart.

Yep. You’re going to say “fuck tha police” one day and a month later you won’t be able to get through TSA.

I must point out that gas prices in germany currently are 8.70 USD per gallon lol. I know the price is largely composed of taxes but it is truly insane how cheap gasoline is in the US, and how normalized it is to drive 80 miles to work and back every day

Though it is day, the sun cannot be seen in Tehran today because of all the smoke following the US and Israel bombing Tehran's oil refineries. People on the ground describe it as armageddon. History will not forgive Reza Pahlavi, Masih Alinejad, Nazanin Boniadi, and all other "leaders" who tricked Iranians into thinking this war would set them free.

Oh my god: this is *daytime* in Tehran.

That time when I took a professional exam in a major city and was told I could only bring in my ID and must leave everything else “in your car.” No one could answer what to do for someone with no car. Ended up taking the train there and just stashing cash and a house key in a pocket but WTF?

Postal Workers Demand to Kick ICE Off Postal Property As federal agents laid siege to the city of Minneapolis, rank-and-file postal workers in the Twin Cities organized two anti-ICE rallies. The first, on December 15, was held in response to ICE agents u...

"As workers who serve our community and are out walking every day, we wanted to make it clear that postal workers are not associated with ICE, and that we want them off of postal property," writes letter carrier Emmett Bongaarts in Minneapolis labornotes.org/blogs/2026/0... 🧵1/5

BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.

This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.
