CBS didn't run the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT, but over here at @propublica.org we've been working on the story since March, including finding out who each and every man sent to that maximum security prison was. You can see our reporting here: www.propublica.org/series/depor...

Important context here: when Peter Thiel and David Sacks began their war on diversity as undergrads at Stanford, thirty years ago, the very first tactic they adopted was to normalize slurs that had already been stigmatized out of mainstream society. This return of these hateful terms was a key goal.

I have a Lost Boys Sinners cross over trying to form in my brain and I honestly blame my misspent youth

So does anyone remember the fairy tales where the heroine would spit gold and gems? I want that to happen. I want racists getting hit to make their victims some money. Make racism painful and expensive

A guy I went to school with is mid harvest & we ain't shit so we're watching and laughing. You fell out with a woman who loved you through everything because you wanted to be outside. Outside robbed you, your ex has moved on and you can not get so much as a call back without paying for it. Good luck

A gross historical fact about white slavery panics (that's all those narratives around trafficking going back 100 years that blame Black & Brown men for the trafficking of white women) is that anytime you dig into actual trafficking cases there's rich white men in the mix as purveyors and customers

I had these pineapple chicken wings at Mahari in Hyde Park yesterday and I need them again.

I have never laughed so hard at a terrible plan www.tiktok.com/t/ZTrnLFTud/

Every picture from this has been hilarious

“Gantchev suffered from type 2 diabetes and told his wife no diet accommodations were made for him. She and Anna said the small amount of food that is given to people detained at North Lake was not enough for maintaining Gantchev's blood sugar levels.”

I turned this down and regret nothing about that choice

lol when a rich, powerful white man begs for higher taxes, you know that vibes are about to shift towards eating the rich:

Drugs and AI did this, it is the only explanation for this ad www.redfin.com/IL/Chicago/5...

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

ICYMI, I wrote about Yglesias making common cause with the right-wing moral panic over critical race theory. His supposed defense of liberalism is deeply illiberal. @liberalcurrents.com

god, what a monumental waste of everyone's fucking time and effort How many of my friends' careers did I see get pointlessly tanked from this shit, still yet to recover?? As if "one" wouldn't have already been too high an answer

This explains everything about the pics and verifies my suspicion that much of what we're seeing is hate rooted in insecurity and jealousy.

The sound I made about this place despite the fact that I know I don't want a 3rd floor walk up. www.redfin.com/IL/Chicago/U...

It all makes sense if you perceive all AI content as the work of grifters

Capital & Main's multi-part series, Locked Out, investigates how major landlords exclude section 8 tenants. The yearlong investigation found that some of L.A.'s largest rental property owners skirted anti-discrimination laws. capitalandmain.com/how-some-of-...

Dropping this the same day as the sad white guy essay is diabolical work from Reuters and I salute it.

You have greater strength than any of us. (I might be eating one right now)

So not to excuse this, but when I started seeing the daily influencer hauls from people with seemingly no PR packages I did wonder if they were selling the stuff or boosting it and returning it for cash. My guess is door #2

Amazing how many articles are just “I’m a white guy who didn’t get the promotion I wanted and the only answer to this problem that concerns every single one of us is to re-segregate the workplace”

It's structural racism for the future

The rest of the media was totally irresponsible for not running with this headline: novaramedia.com/2025/12/15/n...

Maine coons are aliens pretending to be cats

Costco has these blueberry cheesecake croissants and we got them to try since we're out of breakfast ideas. Y'all...y'all

The rationalizing of misogyny and racism...whew shit. Racist incels existed before the internet, before capitalism, before America. Misogyny has always been about the idea that women are property to be owned and controlled, not people

That definitely didn't happen.

For those asking for the link to Ko-fi here ya go!! your on going support keeps us housed and able to work. Every little bit helps, thank you so much!! ko-fi.com/tessfowler

Please note that this is a set up for denaturalizing citizens and setting up deportation camps for anyone who disagrees with Stephen Miller. Also please note that these fascists are bound to lose. Find your organizing home, join your neighbors, and stand up to these clowns wherever you see them.

This one is going to have people mad, but honestly paying relatives was the norm. You might not have known Grandma got paid but weekly childcare for free? The village has a life. www.reddit.com/r/AmItheAssh...

Everyone who participated in the firings, prosecutions, blackballings & penalization of the people who found it ironic that the 'Sin of Empathy' and 'Gun Violence Is The Cost Of Freedom' guy got shot in the neck (including moderation here). You guys are fucking clowns.

I can't even muster the energy to hate people I know, never mind people I don't.

The Equal Credit Opportunity Act is next on the DEI chopping block. You're going to think this is hyperbole, but baby it is about to get really ugly in here www.reuters.com/legal/transa...

We went out with friends for dinner last night. And y'all I know our waiter was probably confused because we ate half the menu.

The funny thing about this is that Twitter had declined well before the sale. It's death throes are a mess

It's me. I can't even say I care who wins. Just no more of them.

I sprinkled a little taijin on these and now I need a new bag

Some day we will talk about our cultural hatred for children and teens and the way it ties right into every conversation about crime

I'm assuming this is fake, but the baby said this is that bullshit from the gate

I didn't know there was a blend option for swag. Interesting. He still looks like him, just with a better barber and tailor

NPR: “Head Start early childhood programs are being told to remove a list of ~200 words and phrases from their funding applications or they could be denied— "accessible," "belong," "Black," "disability," "female," "minority," "trauma," "tribal" "women…” www.npr.org/2025/12/11/n...

Bully them everywhere.

Yes. Exactly

Remember when they were selling veneer classes and claiming if you could do nails you could do veneers? A dentist on Tiktok was warning people that charges would happen eventually. Guess we're going to see a lot of these cases

I just had the same flashback because it took me forever to get something done about mine
