You know who should be on TV 24/7? The handful of Appalachian writers who called out Vance's BS a decade ago when elite media liberals were drooling all over him for his "brilliant insights" in Hillbilly Elegy.

They can’t just let people live. They can’t let people be happy. And the libertarians are silent at best.

What are their names?

One thing I see liberal outlets giving ground on that I feel the need to correct: it’s impossible to “dox” a paid public official By simply reporting their name, institutional role, and political affiliations

This mathematician’s story remained hidden even after the book and movie “Hidden Figures”! 🧪🔭 www.nytimes.com/2026/01/27/s...

This needs to end with this vile creep in an orange prison suit.

Similarly, I believe in the personal right to keep and arm bears. Preferably polar bears. I hear they're good at dealing with ICE. 🐻‍❄️🔫

Sal Buscema, beloved comics artist, passes away Sal Buscema, a veteran comics artist and part of the famed Buscema family of Marvel artists, has passed away. He was 89 years old when he died on Friday, and the news broke today, on what would have been his 90th birthday.

I was once at a unit where the CO assured everyone that it was fine to do illegal shit, because he had their backs. Then he got relieved (thrown under the bus for higher-ups). Whole lot of people had their "come to Jesus" moment after that. It drives home the message, "Everyone is sacrificial."

Cuyahogice!

Damn 😩

Union strong!

When the CBP or ICE agent that Stephen Miller is trying to get killed dies, it is extremely important that every member of the media be told, repeatedly and loudly, that they wanted this and that people called it out in advance.

Taps the sign

A 2-year-old. There is no limit to their depravity.

FFS getting each kid to the right practice alongside the regular shopping is, yes, professional grade logistics. Of course MPLS parents can manage this.

Again, @usrepkathycastor.bsky.social, I ask you to bring articles of impeachment for Noem—and Trump too.

yes, and: any legal regime that does not consider this actionable libel for which the person's family can seek eyewatering damaging on an accelerated schedule is insufficiently punitive for libel

I photographed tonight’s Winter Storm Fern in Akron, Ohio and this is what I got

I tend to think Alex Pretti was murdered in cold blood by ICE, but admittedly I don't have much evidence, only multiple videos of the shooting from multiple angles that all draw the same definitive conclusion. Yeah I know, not much to go on.

Very interesting to me that Kristi Noem just said in her press conference that Alex Pretti was presumptively trying to kill federal agents because he was (legally) carrying a gun. Now apply that standard to every Republican voter legally carrying a gun in public.

“Are you okay?” What words to die on. What a life to have lived, that his last words were concern. Not for himself, but for a stranger. May we all live with such honour. May no more have to die with such honour.

you don't become a martyr because you were a saint, you become a saint because you were martyred

In my ongoing attempts to give you a break from *gestures widely* THE HORRORS: Let's talk about the utterly bizarre science of cats' purring. Here's a weird starting point: There are NO cats (Felidae) that can BOTH roar AND purr. Cats that roar = genus Panthera Cats that purr = genus Felis

They put Geraldo Lunas Campos in a chokehold and compressed his chest until he stopped breathing. And then they lied through their Nazi teeth. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Afraid to go home because the agents of the state are looking for her after she witnessed them execute a man.

Come, you masters of war, you that build the big guns You that build the death planes, you that build all the bombs You that hide behind walls, you that hide behind desks I just want you to know I can see through your masks

They cannot believe that white people would put themselves in harm's way to protest the atrocities of ICE. They cannot believe people would go out in subzero temperatures to protest their brutality. They cannot believe that people would organize to let the world know evil has no place here.

In a totally unexpected development the dhs explanation of why ice murdered this guy doesn’t appear to hold up to the most basic video analysis

[cough]

I cannot comprehend this media landscape in which no reporter is even personally ambitious enough to call out officials blatantly lying about something clearly recorded on video and widely available. We made so many excuses for the media not using the word “lie.” Turns out they just didn’t want to

not sure what the administration is thinking, but if they're getting this kind of pushback in minus twenty weather in January, I don't imagine the spring and summer of 2026 are going to be any *easier* for them.

Ohhh... my heart ❤️ May the Force be with you, Minnesota. ❤️

If the Solicitor General is to be called General—when really Solicitors General are Solicitors, not Generals— I think it only appropriate that we henceforth refer to any Associate Justice as Associate.

Sorry we can’t afford universal healthcare right now because we're spending all our money on a secret masked goon squad to terrorize our own country. ~ The Trump Administration DEFUND ICE NOW!

You can remove as many exhibits as you want. That doesn't change the fact that slavery is a fact of American history. In fact, you cannot understand American history without understanding the institution of slavery.

How it’s done, folks.

My course syllabi now contain a link to this document, "why Professor Holliday Doesn't Use Generative AI". Feel free to share/repurpose or just check out the links for your own reference. It won't stop some of them, but I want students to know why. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I am sharing this with everyone I know who teaches...or doesn't really understand genAI and its issues.
