A reminder, because it is almost that time of year: More children are killed by cars on Halloween than any other day of the year, by far. www.vox.com/future-perfe... If you're a parent, I hope you'll do what you can to keep kids safe. If you're driving on Saturday, PLEASE exercise extra caution.

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

If you encounter ICE, here's what every New Yorker should know.

100% this and proud to have @lydiakauppi.bsky.social on our team.

I'm a doctor and a dad. I rebuilt Detroit's health department, led Wayne County's Department of Health, Human and Veterans Services. We put glasses on kids, took on corporate polluters, eliminated medical debt. It just shouldn't be this hard to get by in the richest country in the world.

it would actually be tremendously helpful if elon decides to publicly pick a fight with democrats to the point that they can’t help but impose real consequences on him

just so unbelievably fucked up

AI shouldn't be able to fire you, fire a weapon, or deny you healthcare.

does the media ever—ever—ask republicans to disavow this open white supremacist?

I mean if he wants every American to have stake in SpaceX I guess we better go ahead and nationalize it.

when critics of bari weiss say that she is not a journalist, we mean that literally. she does not respect or even appear to understand the values of the profession. everything for her is propaganda. www.semafor.com/article/10/1...

fun thread

Does arresting the wife of an enlisted man and mother of four US citizen children, a person who’s been here since she was 6 years old, make our country great again?

I’m sorry to have to be the bad guy here but we need to recognize that we live in a compressed air thrusters world now. If you’re not finding ways to teach the critical use of compressed air thrusters in your classroom, you’re setting your students up to fail when you could be setting them up to fly

this goes incredible places and I love everyone involved

This is the result of 7+ years of Trump's attacks on @repilhan.bsky.social, Somali-Americans, & the Muslim community. Everyone, regardless of party, must speak out against this fascistic abuse of power. If they can do this to a sitting Congresswoman, they can & will do it to anyone.

Always wet! No Survivors!

Two points I want to make about this: 1. Democrats should immediately threaten to deport Elon Musk and Melania Trump for *actual* immigration fraud once they retake power. Don't @ me about how we're not like them. Do politics. Make the threat. Force Republicans to react and defend their decision.

Bryan Cranston pays tribute to RJ Mitte

nothing foreboding about that

The targeting of one data center is proving a really useful natural experiment showing which sites and ideologies are an echo chamber of Russian propaganda

good lord how can anyone be this whiny; are you not ashamed

This is shameful. It speaks to a character that enjoys turning power into violence. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Man who won’t give his employees piss breaks claims many piss breaks on the horizon

this is so fucking sad

Trump: *says horrible thing* the media: he didn’t actually mean it Trump: no I definitely one hundred percent meant it

This is sexual violence as a form of terrorism. It is political violence and it is chilling and horrific, and AOC was absolutely right to be terrified that the goons (now pardoned) laying siege to the capital would rape her if they found her. Small changes won't fix this. FLIP THE TABLE NOW

You hysterical idiots. Donald Trump wasn’t asking Iran to attack LA or San Diego, he was just talking in a completely incoherent way that we have chosen to interpret as saying it would be bad if that happened. And it’s actually good that he talks like that,

weird to not just say 'the US is losing/lost to Iran' but ok

There is a suspected outbreak of the plague in Russia. Yes, you read that right. And we cannot trust RFK Jr. and the Trump administration to be prepared to deal with this. We need a Democratic public health doctor in the US Senate.

Oh brother.

can’t think of a better example of AI being mostly a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist also it can’t help when this is your user base
