A UK high court decision has implemented a full bathroom ban on trans employees. It does not apply to the public. So a trans woman working at tesco could be fired for using the bathroom at work that would be ok for her to use on her day off. Absurd. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/02/comp...

No thrones. No crowns. No kings. No negotiation. No surrender. No fear. Just us. And a few million of our closest friends. March 28. #NoKings2026

First shot: sugarcane The backbone of Puerto Rico's agricultural economy since colonial times Still used to make rum of course!

Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) says he was uninvited from a bipartisan White House dinner for governors "As the nation’s only Black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight — whether that was the intent or not"

You definitely want to learn to stop saying, "I am SO OLD!" long before the people to whom you're saying it just look at you in response with expressions that say, "I mean...yes."

Prisoners in Minnesota are earning less than a dollar an hour making products for Disney. Organizers and former inmates gathered at a press conference to share what they’ve learned — or experienced firsthand — about the exploitative prison labor system in Minnesota.

Incredibly bleak. Well worth reading.

The guy who owns Amazon shutting down the books section of the Washington Post is beyond parody

It’s important to realize that the subtext of Trump freaking out at Kaitlan Collins when she asks him what he’d say to the Epstein survivors is that she may in practice be asking what he’d say to the *Trump* survivors, and they both know that. A well worded question

This should be a more common breakup strategy.

Fuuuuuuuuck he's all out of titles and now there's nothing more to do but be arrested like one of us plebs.

This is how Tom Homan reacts to losing a court case to free a medically fragile 5-year-old who was used as bait to lure his dad so they could be imprisoned in a measles factory. Fuck any de-escalation stories that come out.

In Oberlin, Ohio, after peaceful attempts failed, abolitionists stormed hotel, found 18-yr-old John Price (who had escaped from a Kentucky enslaver a few years before). Took him to Canada. 37 of the rescuers were arrested for violating the Fugitive Slave Law. www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/ob...

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

ICE are slave catchers and y'all want better trained slave catchers? Y'all want slave catchers with better rules? Fuck out of here

I really need to get off the internet for a while if only because the number of times I have to stare directly at the camera like jim in the office is legit hurting my fucking neck.

dig if you will this picture

Sixty eight million dollars. That’s the penalty for listening to us 24/7 without consent just to feed the advertising algorithm. Despicable.

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"? Well, it happens they were doing exactly that. www.cbsnews.com/news/google-...

the prompt when you click on the DOJ Epstein links is high comedy

CRYING FACE EMOJI

Abolish prisons, except for fascist creeps

just saw 4 ice agents go up to a house and knock and within 1 minute there were 30 people out whistling and they left. we will not take our foot off the gas

Reactionaries are such cowards they can’t even imagine someone displaying courage

“An administration official gave away the game to Punchbowl News, admitting that these “de-escalatory measures” are about placating Senate Democrats so they don’t seize this moment to demand restrictions on ICE as part of any government funding package.” newrepublic.com/article/2057...

This is why I have real fucking problem with blithe criticisms of "polarization" or "congressional dysfunction." We have a Republican member blaming his colleague for being attacked. The problem isn't polarization or dysfunction. It's the Republican Party.

Another ploy getting hot again is the “America’s always been this bad, nothing will ever change,” which always has a silent “kneel and surrender” on the end. The good Americans have always been fighting the bad Americans. Yes. That is not a reason to stop or despair.

It is vitally important that Democrats (and the media) frame this properly. If the government gets shutdown it is because the GOP insists on DHS, ICE and CBP continuing to occupy American cities and trample the rights of US citizens.

To be absolutely clear, Alex Pretti’s gun never discharged. All shots were fired by masked state-sponsored terrorists. The observers are peacefully exercising their rights. Trump wants protesters shot in the streets, he just doesn’t want the backlash to slow down his wrecking ball.

Don’t buy the spin from DC. The same thugs as yesterday are on the ground today, and no training in the world could reverse their thirst for blood. Abolish ICE.

Whiskey Fridays with Buster Bluth

I’m shocked, I tell you, shocked!

Keith Faber disqualifies himself to serve Ohio as Attorney General in this editorial. She engaged in good faith conversation as an observer with govt employees pursuing misdemeanor offenders with deadly force, who destroyed the scene and smeared their victim. www.dispatch.com/story/opinio...

Disbanding ICE is the moderate stance at this point.

"ICE OUT" on Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis, as seen from my flight leaving MSP airport

Know your rights. (From @aclu.org ) www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

Just kinda seems like refusing to tell us which ICE agents murdered Alex Pretti undercuts the idea that they’re wearing masks to protect themselves — rather than to be able to kill people with impunity.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

Walz: "If it was the intention of Donald Trump to make an example of Minnesota, then I'm damn proud of the example that the world is seeing"

Protests happen, but most of what is happening in Minneapolis isn’t protesting. More accurate terms: - observers - witnesses - volunteers - neighbors - residents - people

They say “where’s the gun?” — After the shots Because they don’t realize one of them had already taken it — before the shots

Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

the "and you're surprised by this?" guys have never been less vital than they are right now
