I haven’t seen the new episode of #theboys yet, but finished my workout with my prediction for the episode (skullcrushers)

WE HAVE A LAUNCH DATE FOR (NEW) FANSPLAINING! And it is very soon: next Wednesday, April 29th. 🎉🎉🎉 We (@elizabethminkel.bsky.social, @lincodega.com, and @bookshop.bsky.social) are so excited to share everything we've been working on these past few months!!

I’m ok with this Sadie being more famous than me

Hey fans of The Boys, check out this little video I made with the #geekscape podcast network! youtube.com/watch?v=mDHS...

I have this theory that movies do this on purpose to force scientists to come out and identify themselves, just like in that scene in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit"

I know there's a lot going on But what the US is doing to Cuba is unconscionable

Soooooo excited to fly out of Chicago for a work trip tomorrow… 🖕🧊

For people who are concerned about having their devices seized at US airports starting Monday when ICE "assists" the TSA, EFF has this guide: www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

Fight Song for #TheAnteSocial posse Silly Goobers keep fighting!

In a post apocalyptic world, I think we all know the best currency is something you can save or use. And without plumbing, bidets can no longer save you. Introducing our ideal currency for #theAnteSocial, à la Silly Goobers possee

Meet the mascot of the Silly Goobers of the apocalypse! #theantesocial 😉

I've interviewed more than a dozen hydrologists and climatologists across the West the past 10 days. A sense of panic is starting to set in. Wildfires and water shortages will start mounting this summer. Adverse impacts are expected from not only this heat wave, but the historically warm winter.

Announcement!!!!! The first cohort of my new course, Strategic Communication for Participatory Science Practitioners, launches April 17. (My birthday!) Share this with someone in #CitizenScience or #CommunityScience! Learn more and register here: participatorysciences.org/resources/st...

Hey Chicago! Have you voted yet?

Chicago! What the hell is going on this weekend?!

Love when my boss brings up that she’s friends with the Padaleckis, but has never seen #Supernatural at the start of a meeting. Like I’m not going to be lowkey distracted for the next 30 min? 😂

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas. "He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger." www.bbc.com/news/article...

I've driven up and down Cermak road in Chicago so many times and I knew that it was named after a former mayor but I didn't know that that mayor, Anton Cermak was SHOT by an ASSASSIN who was trying to KILL FDR, but a woman standing next to the gunman grabbed his arm and he shot Cermak instead.

youuuuu are getting sleeeepppyyy sleeeeeeppyyyy Your eyes are getting heavyyyyyy And now you're going to think about that one problem you're dealing with.... www.sciencenews.org/article/slee...

Chicago has the largest Mexican-American population outside of the southern border states. Which is probably why this happened. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

this is a subtle but IMO wildly underappreciated problem

douglas adams was our most accurate futurist

Court battle over surveillance footage at the Broadview ICE detention center reaches new levels of kafkaesque absurdity: The DOJ claimed it *couldn't afford* hard drives to put video footage on. Plaintiffs bought THE US GOVERNMENT hard drives. ICE "lost" them. www.404media.co/government-l...

Artificial light at night may extend pollen season by 1–2 weeks, raising allergy risks. Researchers say light pollution is a public-health “blind spot” urban planners should consider.

This is the Yale professor's explanation for why he described the physical attractiveness of a student in an email to Epstein. He explicitly says he regrets nothing about their association. Again, I'm so happy Yale hired David Brooks to restore trust. yaledailynews.com/articles/gel...

Best part over January: that it’s over Worst (personal) part of February: our kitchen sink’s porcelain bowl cracked from the drain all the way up the side & is unusable 🫠

'measles outbreak at the child prison' seems entirely avoidable, it's really the kind of thing that only happens if you do several unthinkably evil things on purpose all at once

Academics vying for a spot in Epstein‘s world. There are so many. I feel the need to make a thread, so I don’t keep confusing them. 1/

But don’t worry, we hired a bunch of thugs with no background checks to tear gas our schools and murder citizens. I hate it here

This kind of thing is a double defeat. Not only do you settle without getting anything new. You also concede the reality that they've been acting illegally to the false claim it's all been legal until now.

Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...

he just…tweeted it out etc.

“[Liam] keeps asking about that hat and that backpack that are in the picture,” the congressman said. “I think they took that from him.” www.cnn.com/2026/01/28/u...

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

You know you worked out hard when your socks are soaked through with sweat 💪🥵

‘Terrible things are happening outside… Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared. Women return… to find their families gone.’ Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

I spend more and more time wondering how it felt to live in Germany as an average citizen in the 1920s. An imperfect comparison, but one that can’t seem to leave my mind.

So excited to see this new iteration for fansplaining! 🎉

I think people underestimate how big this is. Like a city-wide strike is not something that has happened in the US for nearly 100 years

the more interviews I see with Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams, and with Sam Reid and Jacob Anderson, the more i wonder if the solution to the male loneliness epidemic is for men to get naked and make out with each other, platonically it feels radical but the evidence is mounting

living in a world where the only two jobs are “gambling” and “murder” isn’t nearly as cool as Cowboy Bebop made it out to be

I've seen people say that the officer who murdered Nicole Good should be charged with murder, and to that I add that every officer who kept medics from arriving, who barred doctors from helping should also be charged under conspiracy doctrine.
