I'm not sure there's anything more heinous than bombing a school. GOP: What if I told you we got that target from AI?

Japanese artist Masayo Fukuda hand-cut this life-sized octopus from one sheet of paper. Known as Kirie in Japanese (translated as “cut picture”), the art form involves cutting intricate forms from a single sheet of white paper and then contrasting it against a black background to reveal the design.

It’s hard to describe. It just breaks my heart that they would see someone doing well and think it is because they have some magic that destined them to do well, that to do well in maths you have to win some sort of birth lottery.

After mentioning four dead US servicemen Trump starts talking about his ballroom. In a competitive field, this may be one of the most offensive things he has ever done.

I don't think anyone pretending there isn't an effort underway by Republicans to eradicate trans people from public life can be taken seriously at this point.

I think about this all the time. And, as a public employee, I'm also mad AF about it. Teachers get emails like, "At the 8 hour training tomorrow, please bring your own food and refreshments. There is a drinking fountain in the hall to refill your water bottle."

it's bleakly hilarious to have people complaining that using the word "nazi" to describe people calling for racial cleansing and forced breeding is "rendering the word meaningless," while supporters of the US government use the word "communist" to describe having a functioning healthcare system

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported. He finally died. I am so angry. www.kptv.com/2026/02/21/n...

I get a ridiculous amount of pleasure from this for under 2 minutes a day. This is my best time so far: #ows732 🔎 5/5 (00:45) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🔥 streak: 3 onewordsearch.com

look at my country man, we’re getting out-No Kings’d by the fuckin’ british

On a positive note: we will have enough ICE facilities to hold all of DHS, ICE, this administration and everyone in the Epstein files so that justice will be served. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Wow.

Stunning

This is so fucking evil my eyes hurt.

Assuming a machine trained on a massively cultural database shot through with inequality will not reproduce that inequality is magical thinking on a level that I’ve rarely seen.

I named 46/118 elements in the Periodic Table Endless Mode on C&EN! Can you beat my score? (I missed some realt obvious ones, grr) cen.acs.org/education/sc...

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY. I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

These are warehouses for HUMAN BEINGS: windowless concrete concentration camps. Stephen Miller wants the Land of the Free to be "The Land Where They Stash Humans They Don't Like In Warehouses and Bill The Taxpayer For It." The final boss of capitalism is humans in warehouses. For profit.

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

It's a classic and simple 2 player game. I don't know what other people call it, but I called it the 15 game (not the 15 puzzle, that's something else). youtu.be/UafhPUOCM1E?...

The Crespo-Gonzalez family is home. Our community refused to stay silent in the face of such an immoral, unethical detention. Now, we must continue speaking up for the countless other families and children imprisoned by Trump. Stay loud.

Abolish this

The White House did a dishonest y-axis so I fixed their y-axis for them, you’re welcome White House www.howtoreadthisch.art/lets-conside...

The brilliance, elegance, and beauty of Barack & Michelle Obama.

I'm so excited Oregon has someone so knowledgeable and helpful in this role! Go Jennifer!

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Once again I'm filled with rage and despair at the horrible racist my fellow white Americans chose for the Presidency. I am in awe of & so grateful for the grace and forbearance shown by Black people who don't give up on all of us in disgust.

If a person with 100 followers posted that video to their account, they would lose their job with no questions about intent, and they would deserve it. The most powerful man in the world should not be held to a lesser standard, even if his brain is goo.

UPDATE: lol the Times has rewritten the whole story

it's probably fine

I’m sharing Aliya’s entire opening statement. We owe it to her, and those who no longer have a voice, to watch. youtu.be/zrcW8SZtYpI?...

ICE tear gassed a bunch of children on Saturday. This was a massive escalation of force. They were shooting tear gas at the back of the crowd, it took these unmasked people maybe 3-5 minutes in the cloud of tear gas to escape in without trampling. www.theverge.com/policy/87278...

I'm quoted in this article. I wasn't the one who said "Next time, I'll be back with a gas mask," but she speaks for me too.

I am so proud of Portlanders for continuing to show up in resistance to the federal government's actions, even as it becomes harder to do so due to increasing repression. The First Amendment is non-negotiable, even if they try to obscure our ability to see it with airborne poison clouds. 4/end

Celeste Davis on gender and college celestemdavis.substack.com/p/why-boys-d... Matches my anecdotal experience.

The Trump admin’s whole case regarding Haitians in Ohio is racism, xenophobia, and lies. There’s literally nothing else to it. Legal status, proper papers. No criminal record. Employers, neighbors, local leaders say they’re a benefit to the community. It’s showy, bigoted cruelty, nothing more.

“ICE must be abolished, and it will be.” Events like yesterday bring us closer to this truth. What I saw with my eyes was thousands of people united in solidarity against this stain on our country, and then their children were assaulted with chemical weapons. That’s not something you move on from.

Some signs from the union protest against ICE in Portland. #ICEoutforGood

This was not long before the tear gassing in Portland today. It wasn't the protestors who were out of control and dangerous.

100% agree. I'm glad I went and would do it again - but that doesn't mean I'm not incensed (though unsurprised) at how we were treated.

If your children got tear gassed today I want to hear from you, even if you don’t live in my district. You can contact my office at [email protected]

ask yourself who makes these events "dangerous", because it's not the kids, pets, and elderly people with walkers

every single person calling her parents idiots for bringing their child to a peaceful event surrounded by nurses, teachers, and other union members in broad fucking daylight needs to shut the fuck up

that little girl has every right to be on the sidewalk of her own damn city. she lives here. i don't want to hear any shit about how she shouldn't have been down there. she is a citizen of portland oregon and she is entitled to use of our public sidewalks at all times

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson: "Our nation will never accept a federal presence where agents wield deadly force against the very people they are sworn to serve." www.portland.gov/mayor/keith-...

You can see the tear gas cloud by the Portland ICE building. This was before we could feel it. #ICEoutforGood

To be clear, we were thousands of regular folks at an entirely non-violent march that passed by the ICE building. They let loose chemical agents on families with little children. Elderly in wheelchairs. For no reason. The cruelty was the point. Attempting to provoke a riot was the point.

the council has done their part to enable the mayor to start punishing the owner of this building for these offenses, now it's time for the mayor to start using this power to penalize the owner of this building, stuart lindquist, to the fullest extent that his office can
