From a reddit post discussing ICE moving into Charlotte

It's very simple. You buy anything HP, you are funding her evil shit. Keep your "yeah but no but" to yourself. I don't want to hear it.

It is my birthday, please celebrate according to tradition: as a skeleton screaming for 30 seconds

Just read an interview on CBR with @helenmccarthy51.bsky.social. It made me anticipate reading her upcoming books and disappointed with having to wait until next year! www.cbr.com/helen-mccart...

Managed to get my hands on an ARC, and it’s engaging, humorous, and enlightening. Highly recommended, and I can’t wait to hear the audio book.

Look, I know you guys are in all kinds of trauma right now but let's not forget all the Presidents who actively encouraged the eradication of the First Nations and supported slavery. America before Trump wasn't a freedom-loving egalitarian Golden Age. Myths like that are what got us where we are.

Seeing @mariabamford.bsky.social and @jackiekashian.bsky.social tonight in Parker, CO!

You know what to do.

Not exaggerating when I say I would like a personal, handwritten apology from every pundit who barfed out a dozen "the left wants to change the way you talk!" op-eds based on non-mandatory guidelines in obscure PDFs.

Do you live in a US State, District, or Territory? Get specific with these “NSF in your state” sheets. Here’s an example from Kansas. new.nsf.gov/about/fact-s...

Pass it on...

Incredible.

Thank you, Canada!

This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility

“People in Scotland have a queer idea of the arts. They think you can be an artist in your spare time, though nobody expects you to be a spare-time dustman, engineer, lawyer or brain surgeon.” —Alasdair Gray, LANARK (Book I, Ch. 20: “Employers”) Not just Scotland: 👇

DEI does not mean hiring unqualified folks simply because their skin color isn't white or they don't have a penis. DEI means reaching out and making sure that QUALIFIED folks from marginalized communities are given the same opportunity to fill an opening.

TFW you think there’s something you’re doing the next day and it’s not on the calendar and you can’t remember and maybe there actually isn’t…

Woke to the sad news we've lost Jules Feiffer just a few days before his 96th birthday. I can think of no better way to honor his passing than by sharing this cartoon from half a century ago which described a different president, who I thought back then was the worst we'd ever see. I was wrong. RIP

This academic paper lays out exactly why Trump believes every conspiracy theory he’s ever heard:

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

It’s amazing how Mark Zuckerberg looked at the mass exodus from Elon’s Twitter in large part *because* its now become 95% deranged hate speech, and went “we’ve gotta allow more deranged hate speech on our platforms” Good luck with that, you dead-eyed ghoul.

I do worry for myself. But I am vastly more worried about marginalized people, who have been directly villainized. Trans people, LGBTQIA people, immigrants, people with disabilities, chronically ill people, ethnic minorities and more, all explicitly targeted. We have to stand up for them.

According to the latest CDC COVID-19 wastewater data, we are currently in the second-biggest surge of the pandemic. It will peak in the next week, with ~2 million infections per day. During this surge, ~100 million people total (~1 in 3 people in the US) will likely get COVID.

Just released a new YouTube video about why we're all still trapped on Twitter even as the platform continues to circle the toilet drain. (Yes, I know, the irony of posting that here...) www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-tU...

It’s interesting what being Christian means to some people. Apparently to the women one of whom was wearing a shirt indicating fearing God was the way to go, it means lighting up a cigarillo to pass and forth on a BART train without concern of anyone else around.
