"Where are all the campus protestors?" ask the grinning ghouls who cheered on the brutal suppression of campus protests

source call out for a Guardian story: I am pretty sure a lot of progressive/leftist Christians follow me... if that's you and you're involved in faith-based organizing and mutual aid right now, please get in touch over Signal @ lex_mcmenamin.68

This kid has since developed a crew of other runners he encourages who aren't as fast as him, a one-sided rivalry with someone I've heard bitterly vow to outrun him someday who he doesn't seem to acknowledge at all, & came back from the spring break timeskip in a new outfit with a new color scheme.

do not let the abuser take credit for the situation they controlled

I'm the daughter of an Army paratrooper who refused orders during our illegal invasion of Vietnam back in the day. He went to LBJ military jail. Dad taught his girls this: "Just following orders" is NEVER any excuse for anyone who's complicit in war crimes. You MUST refuse heinous orders.

We've had an update on Joe today. He's had a tracheotomy today to move him off of the ventilator at last, and he's recovering well. Things are going slower than originally anticipated, but the doctors are confident he's on the right track slowly but surely. Thank you all so much for supporting him.

KSENIIA PETROVA (Harvard clawed frog embryo computational biologist) wins her Vermont habeas case on partial summary judgment: the Court finds the cancellation of her visa was arbitrary and capricious and must be set aside, and therefore the revocation of her visa is set aside.

And here’s the eclipse photo from Artemis II. I am in tears.

i think if you tweet "a whole civilization will die tonight" you shouldn't go to the hague, the hague should get to come to you

We have let the experiment run long enough but I think we can agree that inventing billionaires was a mistake and we should shut them all down and put them in the bin.

Reminder: All the amazing high quality video you’re seeing from the Artemis II mission is being transmitted back to Earth using a laser communications system first tested with a video of a cat named Taters youtu.be/GvJtVOmFs5Q?...

get that creepy man away from the space polycule, what is everyone thinking

The reaction of Dr Kelsey Young at the Science Desk was one of the best things in the feed but I'd also like to acknowledge the dude in the lower left corner of the control room view doing his own little dance of joy during Jeremy Hansen's discussion of his corona observations. #Artemis

Someone with the handle @velocity69.bsky.social is sharing a video with the caption: "The highest quality video of the moon was just released… so beautiful * Artemis II" It's gone viral, but it's not from Artemis II. If you've shared it, you might want to un-share.

"And to all of you, down there, on Earth, and around Earth, we love you, from the Moon." Victor Glover, Pilot, Artemis II Earthset.

New week, almost 50% there. Joe is legit one of my favorite humans and he's already been through a ton of crap, the last thing he needs is medical debt up the wazoo.
