Excellent description by ex Olympic rower of the symptoms known as PEM experienced by people with ME and LC - debilitating , and she’s probably only classified as ‘mild’ case

these organizers have more guts than every single billionaire combined

Can you spread the word about weaintbuyingit.com? This is one of the easiest and safest ways possible to fight back against the current administration. If you've been saying there's nothing you can do - you're wrong! All you have to do is not buy from Amazon, Home Depot, or Target for five days.

It sometimes feel unbalanced to care for the rights of the people, while most of those people are going unmasked everywhere.

A professor at Harvard released a study that indicates that the death toll on Gaza is close to 400,000 people. Incredible. Just insane. And the USA enabled and sponsored every single death. One of the most disgusting things to happen in my lifetime.

Storms that battered Alaska’s western coast this fall have brought renewed attention to low-lying Indigenous villages left increasingly vulnerable by climate change.

basically every federal law enforcement agency has broadened its mandate to include gross surveillance of American citizens and the right to impede their movement throughout the country

Remembering this sweet boy today, who was shot and killed by cops within seconds of arriving at the park he was playing in. It was a toy gun. He was 12. 11/22/2014. Let’s say his name. 😭 #TamirRice #BlackLivesMatter #Pinks #SheShed

This is what is happening.

no sorry you’re right this technology is absolutely worth depleting our water supply

Gift 🎁 link. I wish the public would pay more attention to what ICE is doing to these folks - our gov. is signaling what it will next do to us. "Ms. Rosa...has been a lawful permanent resident of the [US] since she was 9....Just weeks [prior to detention],... 1/2 www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/o...

I actually thought I had shared this on here and I hadn't. But if you want to look at why Tehran has to move it's climate change, yes, but it's genuinely fascinating as a failure of long term planning/ not understanding water supplies.

This story is nuts. "ICE agents then surrounded the judge’s car and demanded everyone to exit the vehicle, threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply."

More than 65,000 people are in immigration detention, a 67% increase from the average daily population in detention centers of 38,990 last November. www.notus.org/immigration/...

Border Patrol reported that they woke up to their tires slashed on multiple vehicles at their hotels on Tuesday morning. Resistance growing as NC fights its first week as ICE’s latest target.

Again, I don’t want to get too personal but the most tepidly political, structurally vulnerable people in my life were protesting ICE all week. The juxtaposition here is just wild.

I wrote this piece because I only learned about pelvic floors a few years ago, despite having had one all my life. And then it turned out to be where I store all my issues. And then that turned out to be true for a lot of people www.wired.com/story/the-pe...

A senior ICE official just admitted in an evidentiary hearing in Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s case that someone else drafted his declaration in the case and he didn’t know what certain words meant.

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

Mother Jones has been on fire on the John Roberts beat and, man, I'd love to see our national press pick up this ball. "It’s impossible to imagine today’s crisis without the Roberts court having first undermined the foundations of our democracy." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

For decades, scholars have argued education’s hidden curriculum is about disciplining and socializing children as future workers, and they just….tweeted it out

My hometown absolutely floored me this past week. FLOORED. For safety reasons, I haven’t said much about it. But I’m so damn proud of my family and friends. So proud.

My book on the social conservative shift in our Christmas media from the McCarthy era was just published on Monday, and I'm currently working on an op-ed on GAC. I take a hard, hard stance that Christmas is as pluralistic as the American people and Christian traditions are only a small part of it.

Curmudgeonly compaint to ignore: Even as I recognize its necessity, I don't like "we're going to win" rhetoric. I think it implies "norms" can be restored, that there'll come a day when this is "over"--vs. a long struggle in which there're victories but no final victory, because this isn't a movie.

Some important information almost zero people in my tax bracket will understand how to operationalize:

"Microsoft warns that Windows 11's agentic AI could install malware on your PC: 'Only enable this feature if you understand the security implications.'" bro what-- what are we doing here, exactly, how can you--anyone be okay with this?

If you're posting tributes to Alice Wong but aren't wearing a well fitted respirator indoors when sharing air with people outside your household AND outdoors when it's crowded than I think you misunderstood the assignment. You care about others? Prove it. Wear a mask.

RIP Sister JoAnn Persch, immigrant advocate who, alongside Sister Pat Murphy, prayed the Rosary in English & Spanish every Friday outside Broadview ICE, no matter what **since 2007** She was still attempting to minister to people inside Broadview Nov. 1.

Every single day ICE agents are threatening people and terrorizing communities. We’ve seen ICE pepper spray babies, disappear US citizens, slam distraught mothers and fathers to the ground—now they’re terrorizing St. Paul. ICE is out of control and should be abolished.

Look. I know some people want the US of their childhood back. It’s not gonna happen. The actually existing Democratic party is not capable of achieving even 10% of this stuff. Wishing harder won’t make it so. We need to get serious about what is actually required to beat fascism and billionaires.

Universities whose workers understand this and build unions on this basis survive. Where that doesn't happen, the university ceases to exist, replaced by a vaguely sad eldritch horror wearing the campus buildings as a skin suit.

This is the dystopian bullshit so many of us feared. It's not coming, it's here.

Over 20,000 students stayed home from school Monday in Charlotte amid ICE raids, representing 15% of enrollment The district is nearly one-third Hispanic, per WBTV www.wbtv.com/2025/11/18/n...

ICE has been raiding my neighborhood and surrounding ones for the last couple of weeks now. They commandeered my local church (against the pastor's will) for a staging site and raided supermarkets, parks, Goodwills, bus stops, you name it. The national media's been silent. So has @mayor.lacity.gov.

just learned we won an award for our blog post about Tom Holland and stormwater management. remember, when you see an article about stormwater management, you repost it. i don’t make the rules.

In 2028 I will vote for whoever will send Stephen Miller to The Hague.
