EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: “I was literally begging the agent who was holding me back to let me do CPR,” she told The Intercept.

Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Can a LetterBoxd review win a Pulitzer?

I’ve never met a child that belongs in prison, because all children should be free. Abolish all child cages + jails + prisons (so-called juvenile halls, camps, correctional facilities, detention centers, et al.) They are an expensive stain on our community.

🔥 “To me, when we're talking about what justice looks like, it's ultimately getting to a place where every single fascist agent and the leaders that directed them to do what they did are held accountable to the highest degree of the law. And that means prosecution.”

he is obsessed with me

you should let me in your remote locale for three reasons 1) im hot 2) i‘ll do what i said i was going to do 3) if i don’t do what i said i was going to do, i’ll do you one better

i do love that after Grant Application Season it becomes Residency Application Season so i don’t have a moment to wonder at the status of my Grant Applications. too busy trying to justify why i should be sitting in the middle of goddamn nowhere with an honorarium, indigenously

What the last two centuries have taught us is that capitalism is a system which exists to create and maintain oligarchy, with an oligarch defined as one who steals/hoards resources on a grand scale while blatantly transgressing social norms in the most disgusting ways imaginable to prove their power

I don't know who needs to hear this but Johns Hopkins is hiring two writers for their president and the pay for the senior writer position caps out at 130k

Ahhh I can’t believe I get to host my own HAD sub call!!! I hope you all send something my way!!!

very very excited (& nervous! stage jitters!) to share news of a project that my person & I have been working on for so long now we're starting a tiny artist residency here in Baltimore; say hello to The Doll House! www.thedollhouse.studio

i have never been this accurately disrespected.

this is comically evil. brazenly anti-social. just absolute black-pilled nihilism. we will not have a republic, we will not be free, until we regulate these companies to the point where — at a bare minimum — they're too afraid to put stuff like this down on paper. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/t...

GRWM (get rabies with me)

NIMBY, but make it antifascist

The inversion of electorial responsibilities by American libeerals is extremely bizarre to me. It's a mentality that Democrats cannot fail voters, the voters fail Democrats. If "your guy" didn't win it has nothing to do with the guy and everything to do with a disobedient electorate.

Working class people of all kinds have way more in common, even with all our beautiful diversity, than we have with the white supremacist capitalists that work hard to distract us from their evil by setting us against each other. Solidarity has never been so essential. Radical love is revolutionary.

Happy birthday to one of my favourite haters, Charles Darwin

This is one of my favorite stories. I wrote it during the early days of Covid when it was just me and my elderly cat. I knew she was going to die soon and the idea of facing that alone was, well, hard to face. I made it weird. I tried to make it beautiful. But it is still that horror underneath.

Excessive insecurity is its own form of narcissism

every time i feel like the laziest piece of shit in the world I stop and remember I still have never used generative ai to shortcut a project and suddenly feel slightly better

These are tiny fractions for a movement of this historic size and geographic dispersion. This discipline is part of why clear instances of lawless brutality by govt authorities tend to backfire—a dynamic that @owasow.bsky.social recently described in the NYT: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/28/o...

The volume & geographic distribution of protest nationwide during year 1 of Trump's second term was extraordinary.

finally got my physical copy of PERSONA which is good because i am coming down with a terrible sickness and need something to make me feel worse

streaming platforms have robbed us of the randomness that used to be both an essential property of tv watching and a quality that mitigated its addictiveness somewhat. we were wholly beholden to whatever happened to be on! if we didn’t like any of it we were obligated to go do something else!

i wrote about the loss of randomness from music-listening and TV-watching www.patreon.com/posts/139812...

since moving completely to the sunbeam f1 horizon bluebird i have found myself needing to “kill time” in the old ways, which means i am now drawing again, if you can believe it

I don't know if it's really clear, outside of coverage of Mpls and pockets of organizing elsewhere, that hundreds of thousands of people are actively and at every level of society fighting our government as it abducts and imprisons and torments our neighbors.

It’s because the goal is not safety but policing, and that has more to do with control than anything else. Groups of people gathering, the very basis of community, is by default seen as suspicious. That’s why their preferred designs all have to do with limiting human interactions.

"Maybe all we do is frustrate," Star said. "Give someone one more day with their daughter or their dad. "But if you lost your dad, or you lost your daughter, you would give anything to have one more day with them. And that’s what we can do.” My latest for Slate

You should be able to find jobs by searching "guy who shows up on time and generally does what he's supposed to"

Emerald Fennell they are obliterating your ass on Sesame Street. They're telling kids to eat veggies in the new movie "Wuthering Bites" by Ruby Rutabaga.

It should be illuminating that prosecuting sex trafficking, the thing that prosecutors and police across the country have been using as a cash cow to fund surveillance and weaponry, is actually not something government prosecutors care about at all. The system does not hold people accountable.

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

Every fucking company is like "hey guys you know that thing we make? That we are famous for? Well we're not doing it anymore. Here's a chatbot that'll tell you to drink bleach instead. You're welcome"

my takeaways reading about a bunch of horrific shit in history is that the things you want are: -to have hiding spaces -to not let the state disarm you (small arms genuinely matter even when artillery exists) -to maintain access the means of communication -to build diplomatic ties with outsiders

build these. i'm not joking. the more I read history the more I read how often hiding spaces save lives.

we're such disgusting oligarchs, swilling our juices and eating our chicken.

“why are our higher-ups so EVIL?“ - grandma

tiny victory, my grandma said she saw neighbors she hasn’t seen in weeks come outside just to do some normal errands. she prays that she’ll “live to see the change, the change for the better.”

There’s a sentiment among some locals that eyes on Minnesota are waning. The situation has NOT changed here. Local resistance is tired, but of course never giving up. Please stay plugged into the news of the Minneapolis ICE occupation and donate where able. We need endurance in this moment.
