MINNEAPOLIS - TODAY This is urgent & a huge opportunity to draw public attention to demand our city & Target to stand with immigrant communities. If you've seen folks talking about how quiet & empty Cedar-Riverside &c have been in the last 48 hours & are moved by that, find a way to show up.

"(Video is AI simulation)" Excuse me. What?

In Sweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song, Sweetback beats a cop unconscious with the handcuffs the cops put on him. I think the State Senator should think about what ought to happen to people who keep slave shackles as souvenirs.

When all is done, the OU undergrad will have scored a 6 figure right-wing media contract, the higher ed press will still be talking about grading rubrics for conservative views, the trans grad student will still be getting death threats and have her life/job ruined. And everyone else will move on.

this is extraordinary. too many people in my profession have circled the wagons around someone who lacks the moral sense of a child

This may be the most depressingly accurate description of how worthless Trump is. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

have you heard this

My biggest issue with that song is the deception. Obviously, it's awful- that goes without saying. But the disrespect involved in making someone think they are going to get to hear Warren Zevon, and then they pull open the curtain and it's stupid Kid Rock.

every time i see that water tower i remember the animaniacs are trapped in there by david zaslav. Yet every story leaves it out

Just decided on Christmas breakfast: ricotta pancakes with stone fruit compote. Side of protein to be determined.

Call me Garlic! I am an amateur, late blooming artist (32) and I am going to make a comic!!!! I have absolutely no experience!!!! It's scary, it's fun and I have no idea what I am doing!!! I haven't even scripted anything, I am just playing it by ear and working with a lot of ideas I have had.

no it’s “all summer long” by kid rock

They're like children. They stand there with false smiles, the uncomfortable weight shifting, looking to others to gauge how they should react. They know that he's deranged, that he's demented. They know that he's a creep & a cretin, a fraud, yet they cannot pull themselves from the tease of power.

Not wrong to say that MAGA is a cult, but it's also not wrong to observe that people fall into cults because they find them seductively attractive—which suggests that those who fell into a white supremacist cult like MAGA did so because they already found white supremacy seductively attractive.

Don’t do this shit. Stop acting like this gives you credibility. It just makes you look like a simp.

wearing a suit while i drive the worst car ever invented

The Oklahoma House of Representatives gave that girl an award for writing a terrible essay? For getting a trans person fired? This whole thing is an op.

I didn't mention it in my bit on this story from earlier this week, but one of the most dispiriting things about this, beyond how predictable it was, is that all these elected officials care much more about doing shit like this than they do about the University of Oklahoma continuing to exist.

Sleve McDichael, Bobson Dugnutt, and Dwigt Rortugal disagree, and that’s the important part here.

A happy trans woman anywhere is a threat to fascism everywhere.

Last week of the fantasy regular season. Make sure you're prepared with my PPR rankings, featuring these must-start players: - Jared Goff with no Amon-Ra St. Brown (!) - Omarion Hampton in his first game back (!!) - Emeka Egbuka despite six bad games in his last seven (!!!) - Brenton Strange (!!!!)

One more step toward the imminent collapse of elder care in this country.

"...cats meow more frequently when greeting male caregivers. The team hypothesized that men 'require more explicit vocalizations to notice and respond to the needs of their cats'...suggesting that many cats have concluded that men don’t always listen, and adjusted their behavior accordingly."

sometimes, which what i’ve learned from, of when’s all comes down to yourself — indeed, i might add — has always been them into some

the men who compensate for their small dicks by buying giant unnecessary pickups are ruining parking lots.

just for anyone who lost track; The inch bigots were given a decade ago has turned into several miles and my friends are suffering for it.

Rates are "competitive" (read: low just like everywhere) but this might be a good opportunity for some folks!

During NBA games, once in awhile they will show a video of an NBA player when he played in middle school. And he's like two feet taller than everyone else and scoring 70 points a game. Isn't it funny how sports are just so fair for everyone?

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

When writing this piece, I kept thinking back to this Instagram post I saw from a trans woman the other day. This is what I'm talking about. Watch this:

This is a big part of it. "I already wrote that story." Also that they're all right wing fucking scumbags.

I love this

12 copies of the book were sold in November! I want to thank everyone who bought a book, and if they enjoyed it, please give a review on social media or at Lulu.com. Thank you all so much!

I can’t promise that this is the first time a Canadian publisher of a beloved children’s book series has publicly condemned the bloodthirsty US secretary of defense’s use of its imagery to smirkingly defend heinous war crimes. I mean who can say.

"the essay sucks ass" is no doubt true, couldn't be bothered to read it, but consider that the essay may have been written to receive an F in order to instigate a campaign against the trans TA. in any case it's not a great dunk because this isn't about the essay, it's about purging trans ppl

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

OH MY GOD

How do people not see that the entire OU essay thing is just an attempt by this girl and the Turning Point chapter to turn her into another Riley Gaines grifting on trying to push trans people out of society?

A college student complaining about a grade on a paper is not national news. Not even close. The details have minimal import outside the class itself. Well-funded political activists targeting profs and TAs—in this case because they're trans—with the help of elected state officials? National issue.

I think an under-discussed issue in this country is that many adults seem to believe they no longer need to learn anything new because they aren’t in school anymore

"I shit on trans people and got called out by a trans person here's why that is an unacceptable violation of the social contract" buddy, go fuck yourself inside out

I think discriminating against right-wing viewpoints is a positive good. If we’d done a lot more of that 70ish years ago maybe the country wouldn’t have become the hellhole it is now.
