Absolutely worth watching.
Bessent: "We may unsanction other Russian oil"
Photo of part of an 1827 letter to Rear Admiral Willoughby Lake, squadron commander Bermuda station, from a Royal Navy captain: "There wanted but this additional proof of the manner in which the Spirit of the Law was violated, and of the truth of my information, that by means of surreptitious Clearances, the slave trade from these Islands had been carried on to a considerable extent with the West Indies."
Photo of section of a different letter, 1827: " The triumph of the Slave dealers was complete. It was openly avowed that the traffic in slaves thus mentioned, should be vigorously carried on."
Elders have long argued there was export of enslaved Bermudians between 1807-1834. I've looked for clear archival evidence for several years without success. Today's research: Slave Patrol captain in Bermuda lays out the method and reports on impending voyages to be interdicted. #SlaveryArchive
I know Platner was invited to the conservative shul In Bangor, Maine, but his staff never followed through. That was months ago, in fall 2025. At this point the congregation is not interested.
I really think "Platner's team declined an opportunity to speak to Maine Jews and reassure them" deserves to be a larger part of the story of his campaign than it has been thus far.
Like, I don't know what you think that word means.... but it is not serving the purpose you think it is here....
I have just learned that some US Jewish community groups have been planning trips to India, celebrating Indian Jewish culture, that are called "Jews of the Raj"....
... and I just cannot.... 😬☠️
Trump take gas.
(I paid $75 to fill up today - not at the most expensive gas station - and I don't have an SUV!)
INBOX: @couriernewsroom.bsky.social is circulating a video of #TX23 Republican nominee Brandon Herrera showing off his "1939 edition" copy of Mein Kampf.
But we don't have money for healthcare or education or infrastructure or
records from three additional interviews with a woman who accused Trump of sexual assault were "incorrectly coded as duplicative"? oh for sure, definitely passes the smell test
the biggest coverup of the biggest scandal in Presidential history
Who knew that the Dubya in George Dubya Bush stood for "Woke" all this time?
Yes! Super interesting.
It's so interesting, because I've been using word processing since before it was cool - and so I don't know new features necessarily cuz I'm fine with older ones. And I didn't even know that was there! Glad you've found it useful - and moved on! 😆💙
I'm doing some a course on document accessibility to get some PD $ for research. It's interesting to learn about features of MSWord & Canvas I don't use. Just discovered the Editor doc stats. I'm fine with the grade level of my prose being 10+, but for students it can give a passive percentage! 🔥
I think it reveals the main goal of the c-suite in pursuing genAI is to increase labor precarity. The ability to fire untold numbers of workers because of AI, even if the AI isn't working, is enough.
It’s 100% coded. She has never used this term for any white society woman on the show. It’s as if she is dismissing Boz for being “not authentically Black,“ whatever TF she thinks that is.
Very gross and telling on herself. That’s what she can come up with?! Clearly no Black friends off camera…
Yes, 100% sketch and not cool.
Yes! It’s a very sweet little game. Give it a try if you want a simple game with lots of feels about the creative process!
"It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months."
— Donald Rumsfeld on the Iraq War (7 Feb 2003).
"Deliberately attacking a school or hospital or any other civilian structure would likely be a war crime... If a U.S. role were to be confirmed, the strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the Middle East." www.reuters.com/world/middle...
This story contains scenes worthy of Kafka.
I wrote about the first national book banning bill, which effectively seeks to erase trans people. At the end I include a link to let your reps know that you oppose this bill and all it stands for. lithub.com/why-we-must-...
The Totenkopf, a symbol worn by Nazis, the Waffen SS and Hitler's concentration camp guards. Oh and also by a Democrat US Senate candidate in Maine who I'm repeatedly lectured to that I should not make a big deal about because its irrelevant
Trump on terrorist attacks in America: “Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die."
This is definitely worth a follow!
This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.
you can impeach people after they've been removed from office for the crimes they did while in office and the failure to do so to george w. bush is one of the reasons we wound up here
It is 2026 and we are not fucking doing this anymore. EIGHT WOMEN came forward and told stories of Franken GROPING AND FORCIBLY KISSING THEM. The man was a sexual abuser. He did not and does not belong in congress. Fucking period. End of conversation.
