LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

This man is relentlessly weird, undeniably gross, no good, very bad, just fucking ughhhh

xyz “with no criminal record” … just stop it. The targeting and detention are the criminalization. let’s banish the police from our hearts and minds

(re)reading Anna Tsing's Supply Chain Capitalism essay.

Bamba likes French rap 😂

It's TIM SCOTT

insert jokes about soggy bottoms here

I've been mulling if Hollywood will make an ICE movie or TV shows. I don't think the agency will be named ICE. But I'd bet my last dollar that Hollywood WILL soon make a movie about a tormented Latino guard from an unnammed immigration agency—and how torn he is when he has to deport his own kin.

Please don't register for in person events as placeholders. It really really has a terrible impact on organizers.

same bad writing too

Three thoughts. 1. It’s always been about the white nationalism 2. He is returning to the old favorites because his support is waning 3. He dabbled with this trope before but would always leave a hair of deniability. Going straight there also seems like a sign of weakness

I know she's out of her mind but she also says that Bad Bunny should be more like U2 (in 2002) girl wut

He wrote FUCK ICE with his own urine.

It feels like it's been impossible to get people outside of higher ed to understand that eliminating staff/programs/majors is primarily an ideological project, whatever claims are made about finances. What's happened at the Post is what's been happening in higher ed for ages.

sure, it's just that you haven't advertised on instagram yet! one of the core classes includes a lecture called, "Why Capitalism Rocks!" fellow_kids.gif

wtf

"it was far from clear if the mind truly commands the body, or if Trump was, in a distinctly non-cartesian sense, a passenger in the flow of reality and therefore not responsible for the wildly racist thing his physical manifestation posted"

The entire anti wokeness nonsense of the past decade was about making this kind of gutter racism broadly acceptable again bsky.app/profile/adam...

Also it’s not even clear who Lupita is playing in the movie … is this a PR stunt? (And for whom?) 😝

Often think about the day after 2008 elections, my friend saying, ”today it’s tears of joy and togetherness, but they’ll wake up tomorrow or in January and be freaking out over a Black First Lady.”

Seeing it tomorrow and cannot wait. A friend called it a great antidote to MARTY SUPREME.

Soon-Yi called T Chalamet a prick. like, what is going on 😂

Happening now in Silicon Valley: marchers have surrounded the Palantir building and are holding a prayer vigil for victims of ICE, while video of ICE and Palantir crimes is projected on the building. #abolishice #iceout #palantir #paloalto

The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion. In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%. (Published May 2025)

But not Matt Damon playing Odysseus lol You should’ve heard me when I was watching the trailer with my spouse. “Matt Fucking Damon?” (Who still owes me a classroom visit tbh)

All the same kind of ‘science’

This is my friends’ 73-year-old dad. He was protesting against DHS’s murder of Alex Pretti when ICE goons broke his jaw in three places with a flashbang grenade. “I wanted to go [back to protest] this morning. … they need to be told that what they’re doing ain’t going to happen here.”

Medgar Evers was assassinated in his own driveway while his wife and kids were inside the house. Klan member Byron De La Beckwith shot him in the back and it took 31 years to get a conviction!

OK Lincoln Lawyer #EndOfWorkDay

However did the country survive its first 225 years without the Department of Dick Cheney's Dark Surveillance Fantasies

News: I was cut yesterday in a newsroom-wide layoff affecting 300+ staff at The Washington Post. I spent the last decade leading and building the award-winning Graphics team. I'll miss them. I'm now exploring senior graphics, cartography, or leadership roles. Intros welcome. timmeko.com

Recalling a recent conversation wherein the prospect of tenure no longer existing in red states was called alarmism

omg this

Crystal Dunn is one of the most versatile players in American soccer history. Her career will, and should, be remembered as such. Her retirement at 33 should also serve as a reminder of those who failed her. ✍️ @tamerra-griffin.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/702...

OMFG

I tried to help a woman in a parking lot; she had a flat tire with an audible leak, but refused to accept this diagnosis because ChatGPT said that wasn’t the problem. There was an AutoZone full of Fix-A-Flat *right across the street* but nooooooooo. Anyway, AI makes you stupid, film at eleven.

i hate how predictable and avoidable this shit is and yet we don't avoid it at all, because some people see the opportunity to run little authoritarian fascist domains on their phones and their eyes roll back.

A 40-year-old recording of then-Mayor Harold Washington leading the Refrigerettes in a rousing cheer for the NFC Champion Chicago Bears just weeks from their only Super Bowl victory is one of 800 newly digitized audio clips showcased on a web page unveiled by City Clerk Anna Valencia.

The opening ceremony for the Milano-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics is tomorrow. In my latest with @edgeofsports.bsky.social we press past the five-ring spectacle to shine a light on the underbelly of these politically charged Games. For @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

“On Friday, I was teaching. On Saturday, my own government was calling me a domestic terrorist, and I was in federal detention centers with the bullet holes all over my body.”

There was a relatively low-budget sci-fi movie in 2011 with this basic premise, Sleep Dealer. Immigrant labor without the immigration. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbJG...

I talked with three Minneapolis organizers, including Andrew Fahlstrom and Susan Raffo, about community defense in Minneapolis, the social fabric of collective care under federal occupation, and how people around the country should be gearing up for the long struggle ahead. Audio + transcript:

Bitcoin under $65k today from a high ~$125k. Private credit is falling apart and institutionals are trying to fight their way out of private equity exposures. Tell me again why this administration is encouraging plan managers to pawn these assets off on retirement savers? tinyurl.com/3js6eyru

They are so exhausting

„Taken together, Bach’s communications with Epstein reveal an entire architecture of thought increasingly common among Edge participants: biological hierarchy; racial destiny; gender determinism; genetic optimisation; population culling; fascism as efficiency.“

today's report: our "adopt a rent" venmo campaign paid 43 families rents who were at risk of evictions, including several moms of 4+ children this is the way to get rent paid fast. like. 1000x better than any other way.

Not everything I dislike is Nazi propaganda, but is Nazi propaganda even one of the things you dislike?

In one of videos, Sveum mentioned enjoying our running trails, which led us to find his Strava account. His account was public (no longer), so we can see he was talking about the Des Plains River Trail and he stayed at the Lincolnshire Marriott. We only found this after he left Chicago. But...
