lol the same people telling Black folks to stop making it about race keep making it about race. Funny how that works.

From what I understand Hantavirus is not very communicable and the risk is mostly where people are in overcrowded, poorly maintained, unsanitary surroundings like America’s VA facilities, prisons, detention centers, and schools.

Nobody told him.

Hooting and screaming and waving around a fistful of cash like the spectators in Bloodsport as I watch The Redistricting Race.

"It'll be okay as long as we still push through a Democratic majority." No, bitch, it will not be okay. It will never be okay that Black Americans do not have a voice and have to depend on the kindness of strangers who have shown repeatedly that they do not give a shit about us in the voting booth.

Organizers in Whittier, California, think the GOP has historically dominated local elections because they take place in April, separate from state and national races. “Off-cycle elections are a form of voter suppression,” said a candidate for mayor.

The only minority that our political system protects is the wealthy.

Citizens Bank has helped GEO Group and CoreCivic access billions in financing, including a $100 million expansion to GEO's revolving credit facility in January. Here's what GEO Group CEO George Zoley had to say about it on the company's earnings call yesterday. #deicecitizensbank

FTR I will not be voting for any candidate who asks me to vote early. Wait. Watch. Win CASOS.org No freakin way am I going to risk two Repugnican candidates on the ballot in November.

there's simply no adequate political response to this that isn't based on fully destroying the people and party responsible for it

BREAKING: Another appeals court rejected the Trump administration's policy that subjects millions of people to mandatory immigration detention, in violation of immigration laws and due process. This ruling is a critical victory for immigrants' rights.

Rutgers School of Engineering canceled a commencement speech by Rami Elghandour—an alum and executive producer of an Oscar-nominated film about Hind Rajab, a Palestinian child killed by Israel—because "some" students complained: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... His response (via X):

And now so shall I.

Bryant Rousseau, named in this story as the NYT editor whose work history matches the anonymous coward in the complaint, is selling AI-generated art and music on his website. The copyright watermarks on work he didn’t do — with fake NYT quotes! — is just chef’s kiss narcissistic entitlement.

They call them "data centers" because “mass-surveillance centers” would be harder to sell.

A thoughtful if infuriating read on what it’s like in the alleged progressive bastion of the East Bay. Reminds me why I get so annoyed when folks say we need a strong local conservative party to keep the local Democratic party in check — we have that, they just also consider themselves Democrats.

one of the funnier things that could happen is if giuliani died and trump died right after that, overshadowing giuliani

Booking the funeral home now.

My 107-pound Wonder Mutt is a lapdog.

Brad and everyone like him are idiots and the sooner we treat them like idiots and not innocent hardworking decent people who were just confused the sooner we can get this country back on track.

Every so often, I challenge my husband's beliefs. And I win, of course. But I still remain married to someone whom I despise.

get in losers, we’re rebranding trafficking

Israel and Max Makoka are free from ICE custody and home because their community in Hancock County, Mississippi—a county where 79% voted for Trump in 2024—rallied to their cause and demanded action from their Republican U.S. senators. And their senators responded. Don't write anyone off. Anywhere.

Nice work, @insidehighered.com This is a perfect headline & lede.

My #Mayday was spent away from home, but seeing all the fabulous @probonophoto.bsky.social photos makes me feel like I was there.

Shame on anyone who thought it wouldn't go this far.

🎉 Today is my birthday! 🥳 If you'd like to help me celebrate, here's a list of charities working to make the world better that could use some more support. 🫶 www.astrokatie.com/birthday

Rand reverts to form. The GOP is now pushing on all fronts to ram as much horrible shit through as quickly as possible to capitalize on the destruction of the Voting Rights Act.

Youngest (now 24) gave me this bag last month because he remembers (quite fondly) me reading The Monster at the End of This Book to him whilst speaking as Grover.

Haven't shopped Amazon since November 2016. They are evil and there is no excuse to still be shopping there.

How about, fam, I can't be all right now? WTF happened today? Your future disappearing, my friends.

Our sweet Loa passed today under an old, tall crabapple tree, on a bed of blooming violets. She was with her people. I miss her very very much. And I wrote about her here.

what is the fucking point of an opposition party that acts like this

Despite creating a billion-dollar franchise - with a new $200M budget Hollywood blockbuster launching in a month - the creator of He-Man's family were unable to afford his dementia and care facility costs, and had to setup a GoFundMe. Mattel gave $5,000.

"I will leave when I think it's appropriate to do so". Follow up: "By staying aren't you denying Trump the majority on the Board?" A: I'm staying on because of actions that have been taken; they've left me no choice. He is the GOAT, plain and simple.

I see our current Supreme Court is still firmly on the path of re-establishing racism as the law of the land. No depth too low for these six Grand High Wizards to sink to.

86 47 AND 25th 47.

Notice how a book can make you gay, a vaccine can make you autistic, a mask can make you sicker, and a poster of the Ten Commandments can make you moral, but guns don’t kill people.
