Wow what a courageous decision to leave Yale for professorships in Toronto what exactly are the rest of us supposed to do

American Pope sounds like a Troma film

If you're going to Coachella this weekend remember it's not too late for you to become a person of substance

We should be smart about how we communicate and conduct certain actions, but feels like "security culture" among activists is making us worse at it. Particularly insistence on anonymity when people who are relatively safe are doing public-facing, legal demonstrations.

Annual reminder that sharing false information on the internet is sociopathic behavior

Letterboxd interviews would have me believe that everyone is sitting around watching Goodfellas all the time and I simply do not believe it

This is about mutual aid

Rental brokers are the dumbest thing ever

It is like Trump help up a piece of paper on day one that said “racism and transphobia are good actually” and every hospital, university, corporation, government agency, and the entire Democratic Party were like welp it says it right there what can we do

World has serious early March 2020 vibes right now

NPQ nails it here. The problem with "the list" at the Chronicle is it gave no context or analysis, and no thought to consequences. Gotta do better than this.

The Times is really going to keep writing like these are serious human beings calling Elon "world-famous and often undisciplined billionaire" it is so embarrassing

They all think that if they confess that they believe in anything they’re violating their little fraternity's oath of objectivity. That entire standard is just made up! It's not real. www.welcometohellworld.com/youre-perfor...

Go ahead and do that one-day boycott if you are so moved but please do not give that guy your money. Donate to literally anything else.

I've always found the Chronicle's ever-neutral, bridging divides stance to be problematic. This strikes me as what happens when a news outlet won't take a stand.

What's worse than complying with fascists? Overcomplying!

There are evidence-based policies that actually work, but Dems and Reps keep doubling down on punishment and incarceration. newrepublic.com/article/1911...

Many of the cruelest policies criminalizing poverty and mutual aid are coming from deep blue cities and states. Must read by @rickpaulas.bsky.social for @lukeoneil47.bsky.social www.welcometohellworld.com/hurt-the-hel...

Entering the constant condolences era (giving and receiving)

The daily plane crash

in his statement "cancelling" congestion pricing, sean duffy calls people who ride the subway "an elite few" and i just feel as a communication professional that they gotta decide if they're going with that or crime-ridden drug den homeless shelter

This is an unenforceable executive order that's been blocked by the courts. The way these institutions are abandoning us in the face of threat.

“What I hear” is an odd way to counter the only data we have on what Tucsonans want. Did @timsteller.bsky.social talk to more than 358 people? If he doesn’t like the sample size, seems like more public engagement is the answer instead of man on the street divination.

Tucson if you’re out there vote no on Prop 414. It sucks

In addition to being one of the best family restaurants in Tucson, La Indita prepares Indigenous foods and has hosted dinners for immigrant rights activists. It's a beloved pillar of the community and it's being targeted for that reason.

“I’m getting more and more furious,” Mr. Schumer told me. “At first the voters were just down in the dumps..." Imagine thinking that Americans have been just kind of bummed out since the election like he was thinking of sending a fruit basket at first

"...they’re rolling over, like a submissive dog showing its belly, and alternately casting this posture as either a principled commitment to constitutional order or as an unfortunate inevitability for which they can’t be blamed." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

You could honestly address this to most columnists at major publications these days and half of the staff of The Atlantic

Does anyone live in New York without inheritance or trust fund I assumed not at this point

Maybe the best sports anime of all time.

Something must be done about the proliferation of voice memos

I just called a doctor to make an appointment and the recording was like sorry no can do I love living in america

I learned a lot from this movie

Proposition 414 shortchanges community needs, hurts working class www.tucsonsentinel.com/opinion/repo...

This is a fantastic opinion piece on Tucson's Proposition 414, whoever wrote it.

Imagine going to see that new marvel movie

“I’ve always been very, very lightly edited on the column. And that stopped being the case. The editing became extremely intrusive. It was very much toning down of my voice, toning down of the feel, and a lot of pressure for what I considered false equivalence" and attempts “to dictate the subject.”

Chuck Shumer sitting with Alito, Don Jr. and Tim Cook is certainly something.

Just as powerful on rewatch and filled with magical little details to notice for the first time. Five stars!

On the first day of the new Trump administration I went to order groceries online and the eggs were completely out of stock, which felt a little on the nose

I don't know how to keep using social media right now and not completely lose my mind. Just throwing that out there on social media.

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

Careful where you direct your rage this week

just a quick note that if you’re trying to assign blame for a law promoted, passed, and signed into law by Democrats to someone other than Democrats, you are not a savvy politics knower, you’re in denial and it’s embarrassing

You don’t have to love TikTok to recognize that this is oppression and that millions of young Americans are realizing they do not live in a free country.

Moving to china brb ✌️

When I was 8 my parents went to see Blue Velvet and came home and said it was about a guy who finds a human ear in a field and they didn't like it because it was "seedy." Years later I got my first job at blockbuster and watched every David Lynch movie they had starting with Blue Velvet.
