This is beautiful. Tragic, inspiring but most of all, so deeply human and not at all voyeuristic, absolutely brilliant. Brilliant. ❤️

#NOKINGS Beverly MA. Hard to know what was more terrifying. Antifå or the T-Rex.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Obscene ideas are injected into public life with "humour" ... and then enacted. My column this week is pegged to the recent calls in the Spectator to murder people at Glastonbury, and on GB News to starve and shoot disabled people. You could call it wink murder. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; a day that reveals to him, more than. all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which lie is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license;

NYT: Tesla’s business tanked again last quarter. Must be the autonomous car focus. The rest of the world: Musk is an insane fascist enabler who seems to hate women and any non-white person. Why the F would I buy a car from him?

Hey, Bud, Mr Cuomo. It’s time to write a book, teach a class, join a think tank. You’ve had your time in the sun and it’s over. Time to get on with your life.

What better way to observe the end of slavery than a rich old white man yelling to work harder.

MAGA is so upset about the new Pope, you’d think they’d just watched someone give food to a starving child.

I’ve been so irked by the stupid May 4th White House post that I busted out my nonexistent meme skills just for this. 😂

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

A French researcher was detained on arrival in the US and his computer and phone were confiscated. Texts criticizing Trump's cuts to scientific research were deemed by DHS agents as "hatred of Trump …described as terrorism." He was deported.

I look at restrictions on trans people’s access to medical services & the freedom to occupy public spaces as practice. This is a test, banning a group, not on criminal acts, but on their personhood. After this, these techniques can be applied to non-Christians, women, non-whites, liberals etc.

1/48th down, 47/48ths to go. If we’re still gonna have elections…

Why does President Musķ care so much about cutting taxes? Does he want to pay less than zero on business like Tesla? If you don’t pay taxes you shouldn’t be in charge of restructuring the tax code.

Saw this over at the bad place, and it made me laugh.😂

House Resolution 7. And so it begins. Good to know women’s health care should address the needs of men.

Reading North Woods by Daniel Mason on a drizzly day in Maine. Wow. This is quite a novel. 👍👍 I strongly recommend. Just make sure you have some apples on hand. #booksky

You know who I wish was still alive today? Ann Richards. Would have loved to hear her hot takes on this 💩show.

Making the move to the blue. Been blue my whole life so should track.
