ABC's Linsey Davis just fact-checked Trump:

"There is no state in which it's legal to kill a baby after it's born."

We need to #ENDTB and to do it we must make the best treatments available to everyone who needs them-especially the most vulnerable communities globally.

What J&J has to understand is that John has spent a full year making Tuberculosis /his thing/ in a way that has been clearly a net negative for the amount of attention he receives but a huge net positive for the amount of attention TB receives.

This isn't some whim.

Jesus the Bed Bath and Beyond auction is an even bigger bloodbath than predicted.

Even competent analysts assumed that their BuyBuyBaby subsidiary would get spun off and sold as a going concern with a price somewhere in the tens of millions, maybe even hundreds.

@Taylor____Moon It’s one of those “you stop becoming biology and become physics” things.

5yo: What’s Romeo and Juliet?
Me: Well, it’s a story about two people who fell in love, and…

5yo: Wow.
Me: Yeah. It’s sad.
5yo: Yeah. I can’t believe they FELL in LAVA!

Sometimes a crisis hits so hard that a country needs help from others to overcome it. That’s not one-way humanitarian saviourism, it’s international solidarity. 200 South African firefighters land in Edmonton, Canada to help fight the wildfire. Sound up 🔊

a media executive i worked for called me once in a panic at midnight because he saw a youtube clip of a manatee with eight million views and he wanted to know why our site's videos didn't have eight million views and i said we should pivot to manatees

This Sat, a neighborhood-led effort I’ve been proud to support for years now is launching as Midway Investment Cooperative, a community ownership initiative in Saint Paul.

Please join us & learn how you can play a role in shaping our city for the better. https://t.co/DwnzJQUWq6

Climate change sucks and urban land use decisions make it worse.

In Midway we have too many massive empty parking lots owned by corporations that need to be converted to mixed-use housing/commercial/green space. Without it, these concrete deserts intensify the urban heat island.

Once I went to a burrito place in rural Canada and was surprised to see they had Impossible beef as an option. I ordered it (I’m vegetarian) and the lady was like “just to make sure you’re not confused, Impossible isn’t a mix of all the meats. We have a lot of people think that”

BREAKING: In a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court severely weakened the Clean Water Act in Sackett v. EPA. This is a catastrophic loss for water protections across the country and a win for big polluters, putting our communities, public health, and local ecosystems in danger.

Starting a consultancy that advises brands exclusively on the fact that deranged goobers who make a scene in stores while a buddy films them represent not The Median American Customer but the most widely loathed type of person in society, full stop. https://t.co/DUTaBDYtfH

I'm already calling this year's Pride month a wash. It's gonna be full of brands pulling their meager support over unhinged weirdos' reactions, and I can almost guarantee there's going to be violence somewhere.
