To paraphrase an old hippie bumper sticker: if you’re not scared you’re not paying attention

Exactly. Bye, bye actual fucking news. But ya know…we’re all a bunch of alarmists and everything is just fine.

"Common decency stigmatizes people that do not participate in it—removes them from voluntary association. We indeed have to live with one another, but terms and conditions apply." me on why Ezra Klein should be ashamed / why shame is Good Actually www.bostonreview.net/articles/how...

This is the man I’m supposed to extend empathy to. I’m not gonna say it cause surveillance but y’all would’ve beaten me bloody in the comments if I said what I really think of his death and what I think the appropriate response is Systemic national upheaval involves reconfiguring who your heroes are

I brought exactly two "Try Not To Set Your Dick On Fire" Zippo lighters to Edmonton Expo, so get your butts there early if you want one!

Ed Blum simply will not rest until there are no more people of color in places he doesn't think they should be

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

So…anybody try any good wine lately? We’re really enjoying that 2024 Pinot Grigio from Via Marchesi!

Cory Booker was among the Democrats in this photo with Netanyahu – and has still not said anything, nor answered our questions, about the Israeli settler killing of an American. Booker's book "Stand" (inspired by his 25-hour speech) about "good trouble" comes out this fall.

Every year for the past 19 years, the school district for Sleetmute, Alaska, has asked the state for money to help repair a leaky roof. Again and again, the state said no. Now the school is crumbling. By @emilyschwing.bsky.social, w/ KYUK & @npr.org

Cherrelle Parker sounds like another Lori Lightfoot. Imagine increasing the budget for your own office 151% but refusing to take care of the folks who really keep your city running. I have a feeling Philly will not forget…

If the same folks you’ve refused to ditch (because losing friends over pOLiTiCS is bad) are currently getting off on a newly built concentration camp in Florida…you’re officially the 11th Nazi at the table. It was never about the economy. But you knew that, didn’t ya?

Good to know this drunk, fascist dipshit is who the senile, fascist dipshit at 1600 Penn. is *consulting* about starting WWIII. Seems smart. 🌎☄️

You should have to be capable of finding a city on a world map unassisted before you are allowed to threaten the close to 10 million residents who reside there.

Fuck these assholes, folks. Seriously? Imagine voting for this shit. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Sadly, this seems necessary…

Fuck this guy.

Exclusive: Trump’s NIH Axed Research Grants Even After a Judge Blocked the Cuts, Internal Records Show. By @propublica.org's @anniewaldman.bsky.social www.propublica.org/article/trum...

How the HELL is this even fucking real? Folks…🥴

Stephen Miller is lying through his teeth. The Supreme Court has emphasized for generations that EVERY person gets due process. Here's none other than Antonin Scalia in 1993: "It is well established that the Fifth Amendment entitles aliens to due process of law in deportation proceedings."

May we fight for the missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and relatives. Anti-Indigeneity is built into racist ableist capitalist colonialism, which is why the system itself must be dismantled.

A Cook County Sheriffs Deputy recently sent UR a 46-page exposé testifying to administrative corruption and abuse at one of the most notorious jails' in the U.S. unicornriot.ninja/2025/whistle...

The incompetency of this administration is stunning. Tell me about meritocracy again? www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Shot. Chaser.

FEMA is blocking the reimbursement of funds to local government in El Paso City and County, as well as to local charities, if they do not give the names of migrants who received aid. My story for the El Paso Times.

My kids have measles, my wife’s been locked up by ICE, and my business has gone bankrupt because of tariffs. But at least I know that Trump got rid of DEI.

No surprise. This is their chance to excuse moving even further to the right. There is no fixing the Democratic Party. It’s working as designed. Get ready folks.

Jewish students at Columbia university today organized a demonstration in solidarity with anti-war student organizer Mahmoud Khalil and to denounce Trump's attacks on public education and protest. Photo via @/Columbia_psc

Ohio should ensure that EVERY child has food at school. The Ohio GOP wants children to go hungry. Let’s call it what it is. www.statenews.org/government-p...

Regardless of stances, every single American should be outraged that government officials can take someone away, not for committing a crime or doing harm, but for voicing their beliefs & standing up against indiscriminate violence. If it can happen to Mahmoud Khalil, it can happen to anyone.

It seems bad our world is mostly run by people so arrogant that they believe anything they can't understand therefore can't possibly be important, and so ignorant that they don't understand anything; even worse that they're Nazis and/or a self-worshipping apocalypse cult calling itself "christian."

musk illegally seized control of the treasury and now wants to end social security and medicare and plunge tens of millions of americans into destitution so that we won’t go “bankrupt,” a thing that practically-speaking can’t happen

The 1952 McCarran Act under which these actions are being carried out today was heavily criticized by Jewish groups (including the ADL) as being deeply inflected by antisemitic attitudes. This 1952 piece in the Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle compared the McCarran Act to the Nuremberg Laws.

Scoop: Washington Post editor Ruth Marcus says she’s resigning after a column on Jeff Bezos’s Wall Street Journal-like opinion pivot was rejected by Will Lewis

To my colleagues at Columbia: if you were wondering where the rubber hits the road, this is where the rubber hits the road. I beseech you not to act like this is business as usual or it will indeed become business as usual.

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is. They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there. They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

Rahm Emanuel covered up the murder of a Black teen, and shuttered public clinics and schools. Cuomo covered up COVID nursing home deaths and harassed women. These men heard "now is the time of monsters" and decided to attempt a comeback. They both belong in hell.

Imagine if Joe Biden had reposted a liberal pundit saying ‘shut up about gas prices’ in 2022. It would have led the news, all of the news, for days, weeks, on end.

I consulted with several yacht biologists and apparently yachts just do this some times, it may look sad but it's a natural part of their life cycle

D'Wayne Wiggins, founding member of the R&B group Tony! Toni! Tone!, has died at 64 www.npr.org/2025/03/08/g... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This is the disturbing story of how a handful of neo-Nazi influencers groomed a teen from Slovakia to become a killer. Here's our latest investigation with @frontlinepbs.bsky.social and the Investigative Center of Jan Kuciak. THREAD 👇 (Note: This thread mentions suicide.)

Al Green was the 1 Democrat who protested enough to get kicked out of Trump's speech. In response: •10 Dems voted with MAGA to censure Green •Dem leadership chastised Dem reps who protested Trump Here's the numbers of those 10 Dems—remind them to stop voting MAGA www.qasimrashid.com/p/10-democra...

The same school harassing, evicting, expelling, and attacking its own students for being Pro-Palestinian liberation??!
