I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.

I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

I don't think it's a "problem" that there are fewer teen pregnancies. I think fewer teen pregnancies is a good thing, actually,

When a person loses 1 sense the others are heightened. That's why people who have no sense of humor have an amazing sense of self-importance.

People sure do knee-jerk defend their decisions to continue going to the Nazi bar when you point out that it’s a Nazi bar.

Today would've been John M. Ford's 70th birthday.

Here are his two most famous sonnets.

I cannot stress this enough: Vegas gave Musk millions to build us a supposed public transportation system. Instead he built basically an Uber tunnel for Teslas that only goes FROM ONE END OF A CONVENTION CENTER TO THE OTHER. Literally just gets you to the other side of a building.

If they ever package and sell the salsa on its own it will be a real shut up and take my money scenario.

Boston-area folks, I need you to know that the peri peri chicken sandwich at Nubian Market is one of the best sandwiches around. It has a “burnt orange salsa” that I dream about.

Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.

Oh, this is good. Idaho passed a bill banning local cities from flying the Pride flag. So the cities decided to wrap the poles themselves in pride colors.

This is amazing.

JUST IN: Liberals have won a decisive victory for the Wisconsin supreme court race tonight.

Chris Taylor will join the supreme court, flipping a conservative-held seat.

This expands liberals' majority on the court to 5-2.

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.

The so-called “strongmen” of the current era — Putin, Trump, and Netanyahu — are not leaders.

They can manipulate public opinion and sustain their bases of power, but they have no moral authority.

Real leadership is the opposite of thuggery.

Kind of petty in the grand scheme of things, but I hate the trend of secondhand sellers on eBay and the like using machine-generated images of fake models "wearing" the garment they are trying to sell.

The number of brilliant people of color in my life who are currently unemployed or underemployed is staggering. The cost of who is denied access to labor markets isn’t just unemployment rates or tax contributions, it’s innovation that will shape our possibilities for decades.

Amidst everything else, the Trump regime has quietly killed off the U.S. Forest Service 🌲

“One hundred and ninety-three million acres of your national forests… just handed, on a silver platter, to the people who’ve spent their entire careers trying to destroy it.”

The whole thing about Democrats searching for a winning message for the midterms is infuriating because it is staring them in the face:

Rule of Law — People who do illegal shit should face consequences.

For insider trading. For illegal wars. For ignoring court orders. For being a pedophile.

The world is stupid, but I just watched a squirrel break into a car in the parking lot below me, steal a package of crackers, and escape to a nearby tree. So at least somebody is winning.
