People who immigrate to the U.S. come here to find safety and opportunity and contribute to our communities. We should be welcomed with dignity, not demonized.

"Why should I bother to read something someone else couldn't be bothered to write?"

Rev. Jesse Jackson's "I *am* somebody..." remains one of the all-time great pieces of 20th century rhetoric / agitprop And he could deliver it at a Black separatist meeting, the Democratic National Convention, or on god-blessed Sesame Street (see below 🥹) RIP to the Voice of the Voiceless

tfw stealing material history is insufficient

The commander in chief telling troops who they have to vote for is itself a presidency ending impeachable scandal.

Oh my GOD King County Public Health is just wilding out for Valentines Day (and a lovely one).

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

Not only did they murder hundreds of thousands of people. They also stole the money.

DISABLED PEOPLE BEING SEXY! WE ARE SEXY, FEAR US!

What movie moment made you exclaim… “THIS IS CINEMA”

Infosec used to be serious

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

Now watch Ireland thrive and become world leader in the arts. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

NEW: ICE is leasing offices throughout the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. WIRED is publishing dozens of these locations.

Watch with sound up. The music is so perfect!

We should not normalize smashing in people's car windows. That alone is a civil rights violation!

Got hit with a $3000.00 vet bill yesterday. Still looking for work. So, uh, buy my books, maybe? www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/EC2/e...

This is the 38th time that the U.S. military has unlawfully killed civilians on the orders of Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump. At least 130 people — never charged with crimes, their identities unknown to their executioners — are now dead.

I don't care. I do not fucking care. He's a fucking Epstein class human being and I hope no one ever loves him again. I hope he spends the rest of his days in the grey cold ashes of words that also hate him and twist wrongly under his pen until his hands ache

I was away for two weeks and she had OPINIONS when I returned last night

I didn't have TikTok on my phone when it was Chinese spyware, I'm not going to have it on my phone when it is US spyware

Have you called your rep yet?

I realize that dunking on the NYT is passé; but, motherfuckers, the reason Americans consume a shitton of weed is that it’s cheaper than the physical and mental healthcare we can’t afford.

So this article just dropped. www.theverge.com/policy/87495...

I wish it was a cottage industry. But it is everything from the @nytimes.com to @cnn.com. Imagine, just imagine if they covered Trump AS HE IS, not as some white-washed fantasy. Sanitizing him is complicity.

This is a phenomenal breakdown of Bad Bunny’s performance, and the significance of the song choices, set choices, and so, so much more. He definitely went above and beyond with this performance, and he deserves the recognition & respect!
