🧵 I want to reiterate why food shaming of any kind on my feed gets an immediate no-questions asked block. Many food averse people have limited safe foods or are restricted to samefoods, that are predictable and consistent. Many examples are considered “highly processed” (bs pseudoscience).

UCONN!!!!!

Democratic consultants: To replicate Mamdani’s success with the young people we must appeal to their short attention spans with memes and TikTok Mamdani (actual quote): In the fifth century in what we now know as Ireland, a British warlord named Coroticus had laid waste to the countryside

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

Ruin a book or band name with one letter: Ann of Green Gables

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

I'm no fancy political consultant, but, hey, if you're in Dem comms, you should notice that Fox News panicked over Trump wearing a cheap Trump merch baseball cap to receive the bodies of soldiers he got killed for no reason he can articulate, and you should absolutely lean into that.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

This was my must-see TV in college, excited about the possibilities with Coogler at the helm. I think she’ll bring the right energy for Scully (presuming that’s who she’ll be playing). www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/r...

Edge - Jeffrey Epstein's favourite intellectual salon - was sold to me as a gathering of the world's finest minds. The files reveal it was something far darker Extraordinary read by @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social for the Nerve on Epstein, academia and eugenics www.thenerve.news/p/epstein-bi...

This is sickening.

Keep seeing the misinformation that this was Liam on here--has been reported that it was not

Wait… Did Lay’s just make me cry?

No shade to Jon Bon Jovi but was there no one from the New England area who could intro the Pats? Were both Afflecks unavailable?

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

⚠️ New research with HUGE data set (2.7 million): Autism rates are “more or less equal for men and women.” Autistic females present differently than autistic males in childhood. As a result, females are often diagnosed later, so recorded rates are higher for male children but even out by adulthood.

“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Amazing

This witness to Alex Pretti's murder not only refutes the governmen't story, but says she is afraid to go home because federal agents might arrest her. This is what it feels like to live under state terror. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Clarissa explains it all to the DHS Instagram account

I remain absolutely furious that all this shit in Minneapolis started because a barely-literate homeschooled mormon made a video trying to run up in daycare centers trying to find people of Somalian descent doing fraud despite the ringleader (a white woman) being in jail since March. Demonic.

I wrote about Liam Ramos. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

German Jews were citizens of Germany at the start of 1933. By the end of 1933, the Nazis had removed citizenship from naturalized citizen Jews. In 1935, all German Jews were fully stripped of their German citizenship. Citizenship under dictatorships is contingent for targeted minorities.

It hasn’t even been a full year.

"The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first attack on a 'drug boat,' killing 11 ... the laws of armed conflict prohibit combatants from feigning civilian status to fool adversaries into dropping their guard, then killing them. That is a war crime."

The Trump administration is excusing murder by ICE using the same lies as those told by Maduro’s regime. These lies are part of the logic of death squads. Govt controls the story & the next murder is easier. And suddenly this is normal and people simply disappear. snyder.substack.com/p/maduro-in-...

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

Quite the encapsulation of how racism, anti-immigrant hatred, sexism & patriarchy & trying to return women to the home, & the neglect of early childhood/ willingness to harm children, are all bound up in one another. That's why I don't "stick to one topic." These intersect. Fascism relies on all

The story was always already about an impoverished unmarried couple facing a pitiless bureaucracy, having a baby in a barn, and then having to hide from a tyrant. The baby grew up to say that the poor were blessed and the neighbor is he who shows mercy. You can’t hide from the politics of all that.

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given. The same is true for everyone who swear their oath. Hope that clears things up.

Please share. If anyone is to be quoted after Trumps despicable speech, minimizing Jamal Kashoggi's torture and execution, its her. Thank you.

"Democrats will never fully support disabled people because disability is the antithesis of capitalism. It requires we take a step back from always making a profit when it comes to the lives of people who can produce no profit outside of extraction from our for-profit healthcare system." 100% this.

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant” He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

If this didn't boldly say "McSweeney's," you might have sworn this was published on literally any mainstream platform. They out pitchbotted the pitchbot.

"Jesus was not killed by atheism and anarchy. He was brought down by law and order allied with religion — always a deadly mix. Beware those who claim to know God's will and are ready to use force to make others conform, who cannot tell God's will from their own." — Rev. Dr. Barbara Brown Taylor 🌱📷

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy--they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made…”

This is insane. A dear friend’s dad died of breast cancer…to pull the plug on coverage based on nothing more than vibes and a lack of understanding of human biology is a disservice to these folks who defended our country.
