Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

made in a lab for me. Quite possibly the find of the year

If resistance history were a franchise studio, this would be its Fantastic Four.

Need to petition the city to preserve the historic Rite Aid and parking lot that's at the edge of my neighborhood

just got raptured ama

it's just a fact. you can't have a global hegemon who every few years is at risk of electing a lunatic government that will undo treaties, start murdering people in international waters on a whim, stop aid programs, and slap wanton tariffs on the world capriciously. we have no credibility anymore

dudes rock

Hakeem Jeffries voted for Charlie Kirk Day but still isn’t sure if he’ll endorse Zohran Mamdani. This is why the approval rating of the Democratic Party is lower than Trump’s or the GOP.

guy at hotel breakfast looks like Oliver Reed. Extremely blessed omen

the history will continue until morale improves

to state the obvious: everyone in the regime believes it is someone else's kids who are going to be stitching the shoes together in the factories. but i think the majority of their supporters also think the factories are for others' kids. there's only so many jobs where you go to yale law like JD

They fired someone famous and well-liked in defense of a guy most people don't know and most people who do know him dislike, on the orders of history's most unpopular president

$11. Bless the Broad Street Market

This explains it better than I can

The most disturbing part of this is how the student talks about "President Trump's law" while referring to an executive order that has very little to do with what is happening

Lions game stream just died, which is probably for the best

Detroit Lions 0-17

god damn it

Detroit Lions undefeated season 🔮🙏

Aaron Rodgers takes the sack

suck it, RFK

woke up with the urge to go for a run and I’ve already come to my senses

I know it’s not the point, and everyone else has already noted the depravity of these fascists, but they couldn’t even bother branding this latest atrocity-in-the-making with a war America officially declared or actually won

Last week, there was an ICE raid outside of my friend’s kids’ elementary school. Several parents were abducted and the other families are raising funds for legal fees. Please donate if you can gofund.me/c3d10ca2a

My daughter was one of dozens of students arrested at Columbia and then suspended from her PhD program for two years in response--a clear project of the Palestine exception. Jessie runs it all down here. Paywall but you can see a preview at least. zeteo.com/p/columbia-u...

he looks great!

In addition to the corporations trying to destroy the NLRB and 90 years of labor law, don’t forget a university is also helping, just to fight their own faculty and students.

Griffin’s definition of fascism as palingenetic ultranationalism—specifically a reactionary nostalgia for a lost history of the nation that never existed—remains undefeated. A nostalgia for a type of bread that is ubiquitous, created in the 20th century, and rage towards bread as old as civilisation

late to the party, I know, but “Alien: Earth” is somehow as good as I’d hoped for

someone will let me know, right?

very sad to say I don’t think it’s happening this weekend

“It’s Alright”

i am worried that much of the political opposition is looking at a bombed out tea house and instead of planning a full rebuild, is planning a child’s tea party in the rubble, sipping from tiny empty cups and biting plastic cookies

I work at DOL and my job is considerably worse now. I have additional bureaucracy to deal with because of DOGE. I have to cover for the 15-20% of people who left the agency because of the DRP. I am not allowed to telework unless I have a doctor's appointment. People can now proselytize in my office.

I hope everyone has a great first day of school tomorrow 😇

You could call this poetic justice, that the university that did more to foster extreme neoliberalism than any other is now being punished by that very ideology coming home to them, except that the UChicago economics department will be protected at all costs. It's the others who will suffer.

Words/phrases Democrats should never use: * bipartisan * my Republican friends * real, valid, legitimate, serious, important (to describe issue raised by Republicans) * yea (when voting on Republican bills) * distraction (to describe bad thing Republicans did) * woke (in derogatory sense)

incoherent gibberish. Is this a distraction or a crisis? Are the Chicago police good? What does “playing games” mean? Can you say anything that didn’t come from a focus group?

A proposal to address student cheating, improve instructor-student relations, and push back against carceral pedagogy: radical honesty. 1/18

looks like shit

This kind of thing is so effective and destabilizing for these clowns, especially the ones from out of town who think they're going to be greeted as liberators.

This is just textbook 1930’s fascism

there’s a direct line between the decades long militarization of law enforcement and the willingness of a large fraction of Americans to accept armed troops occupying American cities in the name of “crime fighting” and both parties bear the weight of that sin

Apocalypse Now. 1979. The kinetic energy in this sequence is insane — the arrival of Kilgore. No CGI, no post production cheating. The entire backdrop is constantly *moving* — a la Akira Kurosawa. The coordination it must have taken; Coppola even cameos as a filmmaker barking directions. #filmsky

my secret to aging well? Working fifteen-hour days
