Bad Bunny “together we are America”

The arrests of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lundy are unacceptable and a clear violation of the Constitution. This is a dangerous abuse of power that threatens the rights of every single American. They must be released immediately.

"We are out there in every place they are, showing them that every person in this city is one of our own, that there is no such thing as other people’s children, that collectively we are not afraid of staring them in the eye," @erikhane.bsky.social writes from Minneapolis.

You will die. You will not live forever. Nor will any man nor any thing. Nothing is immortal. But only to us is it given to know that we must die. And that is a great gift: the gift of selfhood. For we have only what we know we must lose, what we are willing to lose.

Anyone who is part of the federal government who is not doing everything in their power to stop this administration, regardless of the assumed cost to normalcy or career, is a coward and a collaborator.

Trials for every ICE member.

once again i am asking literally anyone in a position of power to do literally anything so that our neighbors stop getting fucking murdered in the street

To quote the guy who rates dogs: "ICE agents, get out now because historically, this ends with you hanging from a lamppost and your body paraded through the streets."

Nuremberg trials for ICE is the moderate position

Nearly half a dozen agents wrestling one individual to the ground and then one of them just starts shooting in the dog pile, steps back and unloads on the guy on the street.

the video of another person being murdered by the state on the streets of minneapolis shows exactly what people are saying it shows. make your own choices but don’t feel like you are obligated to bear witness to it. reading a description is enough.

This is the kind of shit that would make you completely outside the bounds of any ancient society, the gods bestow generational curses for violating hospitality

thats his hole. it was made for him.

Minneapolis.

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

Current-borne, wave-flung, tugged hugely by the whole might of ocean, the jellyfish drifts in the tidal abyss. The light shines through it, and the dark enters it.

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Just have to say that this was an excellent listen and is so worth it for anyone interested in epic SFF

This is like in Peter Pan where the audience tries to revive Tinkerbell with applause. Except, you know, the opposite.

Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

I’m just saying that when it happens I’m jumping out of bed, running to my window, and tossing a coin to a boy to buy the biggest goose in town

Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.

Alright, share your terrible writing tips that actually work. Mine is: stop for the day in the middle of a paragraph, a sentence, even in the middle of a word. It feels SO wrong but it makes it 1000x easier to pick up the thread the next day.

Manosphere should just be replaced with this:

I don't know how it got to be the end of summer but... Hi! I'm the book content editor for Reactor Mag and I'm looking for 2026 sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and crossover speculative books! If you've got an adult or YA SFFH book publishing next year please share the link/info here!

We simply made fun of the guy learning wonderwall to get laid too much.

Holy shit, they did it. They wrote the headline.

I don't really have a complete thought around this, but the slow shift of wizard from a wise person who largely offers advice to a quirky guy who casts fireball once a day somehow just seems lesser

Anyone have good podcast/newsletter recs about the publishing industry? I love Print Run and publishing rodeo, but am really missing the latter these days. #amwriting

Writing whatever the opposite of the great American novel is

i am always blown away by just how far ahead of its time DS9 was. really some of the most remarkable feats of writing in TV history. and the kind of show that could only have worked with 30+ episode seasons

Ah yes, the best candidate: a rizzless vampire

Maybe it was the whole primitive, hateful idea of the feminine as dark, blind, weak, and evil that I saw shaking itself to pieces, imploding, crumbling into wreckage on a desert ground. And I rejoiced to see it fall. I still do.

Started Empire of the Vampire because it had no wait at my library and wow this book absolutely rips. 💙📚🪐

If you're not writing your long book what are you even doing. It's the summer of writing your long book, not the summer of experiencing happiness

Hey #booksky 📚💙 Trying to read a poem a day and this old Robert Frost collection is wearing thin. Any favorite poems, poets, or collections?

Really impossible to overstate how completely this guy has failed at every aspect of being an opposition leader over the past six months. Jeffries is a truly inspiring example for every soulless careerist who would rather be king of nothing than stand for anything decent in the world.

We are on the verge of a medical Golden Age, if we retain the stability and infrastructure to support it.

no more posting about any of those “writing routines of famous writers” unless it’s Edmund White’s

You know what's good? Books.

I’m really only just getting into it but I genuinely love birding as a hobby. The entire goal is to look at the bird. Is there a bird? There is a bird! Look at the bird! If you are very keen you can learn what to call the bird so that you can properly thank it for the joy you feel when you see it. 🪶

Saw Revenge of the Sith in theaters and it is wild how as an adult most of that movie is a mess, but once everyone knows Anakin is evil it's just cinema

The phrase ‘just deserts’ has only one S. It has nothing to do with desserts 🧁or deserts 🏜️. The word ‘desert’ is spelled like🏜️ and pronounced like🧁. It's related to ‘deserve’ and means “reward or punishment deserved or earned by one’s qualities or acts.”

Good morning. Today I have an essay running in the New York Times. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/o...

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." -Pope Francis
