Why is anyone debating whether or not to “let Marjorie Taylor Greene into the tent”? She has not asked to be in a tent with you. Nothing indicates that she wants to be in it. She is positioning herself to appeal to people who hate your tent, and possibly to peel off a few people at the edges of it.

Modern technology could learn from older stuff that does what it's supposed to and doesn't bother you. My toilet just works and never sends me emails like "Good news! Flush® is now Floosh®"

Speaking of chins…

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this. I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.

This is a very cool thread (which is still unfolding as I post this). Oral histories and behind-the-scenes accounts always have amazing lessons and secrets.

Virginia Supreme Court declaring Democratic gerrymandering illegal while Republicans are literally wrapping themselves in Trump flags while disenfranchising black southerners is the most on brand moment for the modern USA.

Awesome 🧵 here on the importance of fashion and the influence of the Met Gala.

I think a lot of people are underestimating just how politically radicalizing this stuff is, when you see what the right is getting away with, including with the blessing of the Supreme Court majority

Today, the Court erected a new standard: Prove the green segment in the below is not part of the yellow circle

Put another way, gutting the Voting Rights Act was to gut Black representation in the government. Proposed solutions that don’t center that representation aren’t really getting at the problem at hand.

ICYMI — After Republicans stripped majority-Black Memphis of representation, this was @brotherjones.bsky.social in the rotunda. Damn. (From NC5)

"Rather, it’s about providing an antidote to the cultural poisons we were exposed to in our youth – a culture that emphasised thinness above all else, and told women they would get “bulky” if they so much as eyed a barbell." www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

the more I think about it, the more I feel like “Odysseus is from Boston” is true in a sort of ecstatic truth way

Rutgers School of Engineering canceled a commencement speech by Rami Elghandour—an alum and executive producer of an Oscar-nominated film about Hind Rajab, a Palestinian child killed by Israel—because "some" students complained: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... His response (via X):

To hell with CNN. As any kid who grew up in the South in the 1980s knows, Ted Turner's real legacy is the goddamn Superstation.

I bet they have the same foul stench.

Ok fuck yeah disability REPRESENT People with disabilities can be fashionable and stunningly beautiful too.

Calling AI use “gambling behavior” is so right in so many ways. I hadn’t quite clocked it such a manner but boy that ain’t wrong.

Teachers: "Please help us get AI out of schools, it's ruining education!" Students: "Please don't make us use AI, it's ruining our lives!" Politicians: "We hear you and we want to help you harness the power of AI." #NihilismAndTechnology

And a lot of that had to do with PBS tbh

I never really thought about how in abundance and enjoyable (that last part is key) these types of shows were back in the day… until they suddenly weren’t

New: I’ve spent the last few days talking to Black women in Congress about the VRA decision and what it means for them “We’re gonna hang strong and make sure that we fight against this,” @repterrisewell.govpeeps.us told me 19thnews.org/2026/05/blac...
