Hey friends, I am debuting new work in progress tmrw “at” the U Chicago’s Ctr for the Study of Gender & Sexuality. Hear fresh writing from Europe & Africa which no one has heard before. It’ll be on Zoom, free and open to the public - 12 Chicago/7 South Africa events.uchicago.edu/event/254560...

CW: protester being struck in the head by a pepper ball Footage I took earlier of the moment Reverend David Black, a regular protester outside of the Broadview Detention Center, was shot in the head with a pepper ball by ICE agents on the roof of the facility.

I listened twice. He said 300 *million* people died from drugs last year. If that’s in the US, that’s 88% of our population. If globally, that’s 42 times the number of people who have died of COVID… since the beginning of the pandemic. The man just throws anything out there. Disgraceful.

Is there a reason why like 7 companies just sent me notifications about updated terms of service?

This sucks so much. We are being cute of from the rest of the world and it’s so dangerous.

Anyone wanna be an assistant bedbug?

Clicked through out of curiosity and it’s for… Bret Stephens 😭

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

Why aren't there more support for Republicans among academics and scientists? We may never know.

The White House’s official X account has a long thread in which they’ve posted pictures of people arrested during the feds’ occupation of the city. Every single person in the thread is a person of color.

Corpobot is a snitch?!

I mean, come on...

If Dems have half a brain they should be SCREAMING about the Epstein files rn… Tr*mp is 100% on them and is extremely panicked. He literally just implicated himself, it’s over for him

RAGE THRAD: Our colleague, CSUCI prof. Jonathan Anthony Caravello, has been kidnapped! This vile framing @ktla.com is grotesque - He did not "throw a tear gas cannister" at police, he removed it from under someone in a wheelchair! ktla.com/news/local-n...

Alas, he dead as hell

These DC bureaucrats need to learn how the world actually works: by having things handed to you because your dad was a Senator.

Wake up babe. New merch from the Republican National Party store just dropped.

Pretty disgusting waking up to blatant propaganda in my inbox from the government.

This is an abomination.

Imagine spending your whole life cos-playing and fantasizing about fighting the federal government sending troops in against its own citizens only to root for the government when the moment finally arrives

Here’s a funny story. When Eli Roth premiered “Cabin Fever” at TIFF, he put David Lynch’s name in the credits as Executive Producer without telling him. David found out and asked to have the film screened. He watched and then abruptly told Roth to take his name immediately off the film.

oh wow this just keeps happening

REAL IMAGES from today's peaceful protest in Los Angeles…there was even a musical performance! Legacy media needs to start covering the reality and not just the provocative bits. @meidastouch.com

1 in 12 Americans live in California. 1 in 35 Americans live in LA County. LA is America

For sure Trump hates women. www.aclu.org/press-releas...

every single NYC Democratic primary is always like one sensible leftist, three dull technocrats, and then five or six of the biggest freaks and sociopaths you’ve ever laid eyes on

The current percentage of LGBTQ identification is in line with the findings of the Kinsey Report based on behavioral research in the 1940s. What’s changed isn’t that there are more homosexual or bisexual people but rather that people no longer hide it. Happy Pride 🏳️‍🌈 news.gallup.com/poll/656708/...

Worst Musical Ever

Stop what you’re doing and watch this immediately. Canadian doctors returned from Gaza and are sharing what they witnessed and lived. They are demanding action from Mark Carney. Their testimony is our failure.

It shouldn't have to be said but if you're law enforcement and you have to cover up your face while doing your job, you are not the good guys in this situation.

got yours?

This is fascism.

This is such good news. Judge Sessions orders the immediate release of Rumeysa Ozturk! zeteo.com/p/breaking-t...

Wake up

Most predictable thing ever happened. arstechnica.com/security/202...

WOKE POPE!!! WOKE POPE!!!!!

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

I’m seeing a lot of outrage about this story but honestly it’s preferable to the old way of doing this which was both disrespectful of the deceased and traumatising for the puppeteer

92 years ago today, the Nazis raided the Magnus Hirschfeld Institute for Sexuality, where the first study of trans people was conducted, and burned all of its contents. Fitting that today is also the day SCOTUS greenlights the project of the eradication of trans people from society in the US.

THE PENTAGON BUDGET JUST HIT A TRILLION DOLLARS. Not a single pundit from either political party said “how are we going to pay for it?!” Don’t dare tell us we cannot ALL have healthcare, housing, and education.

Everyone in the past was neurotypical, which is how we got things like this single-author, eight-volume encyclopedia of ferns

seems like the administration is objectively pro plane crash www.washingtonpost.com/transportati...

It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen

In Canada hecklers are supportive. OF COURSE THEY ARE.

If you’re too young to remember 9/11, one of the things about the subsequent 3-4 years if if you lived by The World’s Biggest Fork, people would be like “we need to be careful, that fork could be a target, terrorists hate our fork”

yeah i am pretty much on the side of primary everyone

Despite seeing several people I totally trust say this was real I still felt I had to verify it with my own eyes. And having done so I still can't believe it's real.

personally would like to see every store show what part of the price increase is due to tariffs bc if these tariffs ever come down, i need to see that price go right back down
