I know everything is on fire right now but we have to call about this, we’re already calling about everything else, just add it to the pile. The grief I feel rn is indescribable but to them it’s just any given weekday.

“Why aren’t college students protesting” stories are almost always wrong (they are protesting), omit crucial context (they were brutally punished for protesting before), and somehow suggest that 19 yr olds have more moral responsibility than elected officials three times their age

I get heavy in this.

Everybody knows the illegal stuff you do through your job magically becomes legal if you quit that job, right

The Artemis II crew took this photo of the Milky Way. Just look at the breathtaking universe we live in.

Eyewitness video from the scene of today's ICE shooting in California appears to (you guessed it) contradict officials' claims that the man "weaponized" his vehicle. The car is reversing and the agents appear to be well clear of it.

How many days has America stolen from us by filling our time with too much terror that we wouldn't be able to actually live or do anything else? Years of my life in Baghdad wasted on being beyond terrified of what America might do to us. I am so tired! I don't deserve this, I really don't.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

irritates me to no end that all of Schumer's office's go straight to voicemail. nevertheless, MY VOICE IS ALL OVER YOUR MACHINES SENATOR

Please call your US rep and senators. Yes, I know it can feel like screaming into a black hole. Still. Call them NOW. reps.fyi 202-224-3121

The genocide in Gaza began with Biden bypassing Congress—at least twice—to send arms to Israel, and ignoring his own people telling him Israel was massacring Palestinians. Hind Rajab was one of those massacred on Biden’s watch. So don’t gaslight me that only Repubs want to commit genocide.

Fuck this war, fuck the genocide he is threatening, and fuck everyone who helped us get here through complacency and inaction. Obviously fuck everyone who voted for that piece of shit, but I'm really serious about the complacency and everyone who tried to convince us this was normal.

What a beautiful moment.

This is outside our normal DHS contracting 'beat,' however: we cannot in good conscience ignore the fact that the president is threatening to exterminate an entire country. This is genocidal and evil. The time is RIGHT NOW for congress to act.

I'm already crying about space so a reminder that @jonbois.bsky.social maybe made the best piece of art of the 21st century so far here www.sbnation.com/a/17776-foot...

So proud of JFREJ! Always ready to throw down for righteousness!

I remember once seeing that Louisa May Alcott received the same payment for a short story that I got for one of mine. Not the same amount adjusted for inflation. The same dollar figure. Once upon a time you could make a living as a writer. Not anymore.

Our daughter already roasts us for posting. "Oh you getting likes? Are people subscribing?"

I think especially because the news media has recently demonstrated what "we think the president is incompetent and that he should not be in office" looks like in how they covered Biden post-debate and don't do the same for Trump

JOHN BROWN: if I burn in righteous hellfire so be it. But I believe it is my sacred duty to cleave you in two with this here blade. JOHN BROWN AVATAR GUYS: being impolite to the police is the main problem in the country

Have you heard the Good News?

For related reasons, I am troubled by how dependent astrophysics is on defense contractors!! We need to start imagining a space program that doesn’t depend on war and the threat of war as a testing ground for new technology.

When we talk about what the NYT is up to now, it’s actually helpful to be attentive to the fact that they have *always* done shit like this

I want New Yorkers to take in the fact that we have to fight for $150 million more dollars to be allocated to our public libraries out of a 127 BILLION city expense budget. I just... [IT MAKES NO SENSE.]

Years ago I saw an interview with author David Bradley who responded to this question by saying, essentially, "Art is always political because art makes you think. And that is a political act."

The US reportedly waited to strike the bridge in Iran a second time until rescue workers and others in the area gathered to help the wounded, which then killed at least eight people. Authorities in Iran are describing it as an act of terrorism.

Well NYC, this is the next step in the budget process! The NYC City Council released its preliminary report, and we have thoughts 🧵

Trailer for my pilot, Deathahedron! It comes out on Youtube this Friday, April 3! It will be here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FNC... The whole movie was made with models and costumes and all kinds of stuff I had to set up in my backyard. Hope you enjoy it! THIS FRIDAY! APRIL 3! THREE OF APRIL!

Nationalism is chametz, during Passover and always! Right now, the Pharaohs of our time are carrying out a campaign of mass slaughter and destruction across Palestine, Iran, and Lebanon — claiming to do so in the name of Judaism.

They have killed at least 28 people in the field and 52 in custody since Trump retook the White House. These are minimum numbers.

It’s arguably less a war than it is just a string of war crimes
