Feeling for him right now

What the fuck

I don't understand why everyone is falling in line. This man is sauceless. Juiceless in his own state. He's not the most popular New Yorker. Not the most popular Black member. He's not the most charismatic. He's certainly not the toughest. Is it because he has the ear of billionaires?

Just to be 100% clear, when I say that you should not be talking to the police, I mean specifically that you should say, “I’m invoking my fifth amendment right to remain silent.”

We, the Free Des Support Committee, remain steadfastly by Des’s side. We’ve been there from the beginning, & we’re not going anywhere, until he & the other Prairieland defendants go free. Zines are not a crime. Solidarity is not a crime. Free Des Revol. Free them all. freedes.net @free.des.revol

also not lost on me that as democratic socialists are winning some elections, a new red scare targeting anarchists, antifascists, and their allies is digging in hard, and today handed down 30, 50, and 100 year prison sentences to activists and organizers

This one goes out to the Historical Society of Michigan on their 195th birthday! 🌊🌊

Lmao what an unreal milkshake duck

I never watched Bill Maher before and he's interviewing Sam Levinson and I want to kill myself

judge expert here! judges only do this when they’re in extreme distress

The profound part of Juneteenth for me is that before this was made a holiday, there was no official celebration of the end of slavery in the United States. When the 13th Amendment passed in December 1865, the legislators who witnessed its enshrinement imagined that the day would be remembered.

JFK why. He would use this as an intro to an anti-Indian curry joke

I love this. Unmute.

Really need people to stop saying that the Minnesota 15 are going to be fine, that their charges will be dropped like ours. That was four days before trial, was NOT supposed to happen, and only did because of persistent, diligent, and incredible work by our lawyers.

It doesn't matter that you think you've done nothing wrong. It doesn't matter that you think it'd be fun to shit-talk the FBI. It ain't worth it. I am not your lawyer but every single lawyer worth their salt will tell you not to talk to the cops and that goes 10x for Feds.

You don't have to answer the door for the Feds. Do not voluntarily talk to the Feds. If they have a warrant signed by an actual judge, then they can do precisely what the warrant says. But DO NOT TALK TO THE FEDS. Do not answer the door. If you're arrested, your only words are "I want a lawyer."

It’s so cool that Vox fumbled the absolutely stuffed bag they had

Some years it just feels like a certain team has been kissed by fate, they just can’t lose. This year the Knicks are that team. There’s signs everywhere if you look for them

Ernie Johnson and the Wu Tang Clan

When James Dolan cancels the watch party outside MSG, we bring the watch party to you. Thanks to the @nba.com, Knicks Game 4 is now playing on dozens of LinkNYC screens across our city. LGK.

believe we have definitive proof that wu tang clan ain’t nuthin ta fuck wit

kalshi and polymarket should, flatly, be regulated out of existence I'm generally not big on moral arguments for this stuff but they are tremendously destructive to civil society as a whole

like i think it’s important that allies stand up for trans kids and they can do that by stop agreeing with reactionaries that bottom surgery is scary mutilation that teens should never get. you treat it like you would any other form of healthcare! you fight for access to that healthcare

In a field near Wicken, Cambridgeshire larkspur is grown for London florists along with cornflowers & Nigella. It’s quite a sight just now-some floral dopamine for you 🌿:

Mamdani being a huge coward when it comes to trans youth is genuinely enraging. They will tell us with a straight face how hard it is. Do you know how hard it is for a trans youth who has had to move states and had 3 providers drop them and now has no options? Try that.

I do get emotional at this speech every time I read it

Full statement of Scott Pelley after he's fired from CBS 60 Minutes, detailing the sort of corruption of journalism Bari Weiss has brought to CBS News:

Seeing some queer & trans people talk about suicide as an act of "bodily autonomy" and friend, with great love: When your mind starts to come up with revolutionary rhetoric for queer people dying, it is Time To Go To The Doctor

Marjane Satrapi, author of 'Persepolis,' dies at 56

You’re going to hear a bunch of testimony about how college sports needs to be “saved” and when you hear someone say that about anything RUN

Y'all. Please remember the artists that drew these things when sending around memes. I feel for these artists who NEVER get credited for these (and some, nowadays, are even being accused of being AI!) Here's a few common ones I see (feel free to add others, I want this to be a living thread): 🧵

"Impeachment without the votes is a waste of time." I mean, good? Waste time. Nothing this Congress can do will be good? Be sand in the gears, yell true things, be able to point at how you were right later. If we can weather this.

my favorite team eliminating Liberty on the eve of Pride month

Tennessee Republican Governor Bill Lee says he won't stop Thursday's scheduled execution of Tony Carruthers, a severely mentally ill man who was forced to represent himself *at his own capital murder trial* because the judge simply got tired of dealing with him

When Minneapolis felt under heavy siege, people from everywhere helped and reached out and it was really heartening and made a difference. Memphis deserves that too, all the more so because there appears to be a concerted effort to keep their occupation out of the news

one of my favorite facts about the US coal industry is that it employs less people than Broadway

There is nothing that any Marvel executive can tell TONY ****ING LEUNG about Chinese martial arts. About Chinese culture. And saying, "This is Marvel" when an actor is trying to give you the GIFT of making your character more authentic to the audience that said character represents is absurd.

It me

Jason Collins, the NBA's first openly gay player who has served as a global ambassador for the sport, has died from brain cancer, his family said. He was 47 www.espn.com/nba/story/_/...

Rest in peace to Jason Collins, an unthinkably brave person and incredible leader for the LGBT community. Over a decade later and his coming out column is still an astonishing piece of writing. Wish the sport had caught up more and that he could have lived to see it.
