A leaked DoJ memo calls for prosecutors to charge people who film ICE with “domestic terrorism” They don’t want their atrocities documented. They don’t want a historical record. They don’t want the world to know. That’s why we have to keep filming. Keep speaking out.

“It comes down to the fact that the FDA is not doing its job,” a retired cardiologist said. “Everything you are swallowing should be tested — there should be no question about it. You don’t want a bad batch coming to the drugstore.”

people seem to be finding it on X but I won't go there. People are also finding it on archive.org (search "60 Minutes" and sort by most recent)

Canadians leaked the banned 60 Minutes episode! I do love our northern neighbors. youtu.be/VKz9mfHxQlA

60 Minutes, dead at 57. The murder weapon was Bari Weiss.

In a media world full of Bari Weisses, be Sharyn Alfonsi.

The 4th estate, failing us to protect the government. Boot Bari Weiss and billionaire media ownership.

I was going to say 'screw waiting, just get another nation to release their Epstein files,' but since you know they have them, that means they're probably busy protecting their own heads of state and cabinets or they'd've released them already simply out of spite against Trump. I hate it here.

Unburying the lede from my essay on why we all feel like numb frozen crap these days… catvalente.substack.com/p/this-is-wh...

Per @garretthaake.bsky.social, the extremely tacky "presidential wall of fame" that lines the colonnade to the West Wing now has obviously-Trump-penned plaques insulting or praising the presidents.

Honestly, I think my favorite thing about the @vanityfair.com photo shoot is the fucked up baseboard in the JD Vance photo that makes their gilded White House feel even more like a cheap hotel. But my favorite thing changes by the hour, stay tuned.

THANKS CORRUPT ILLEGITIMATE SCOTUS

I know the world is burning, but I have the Flu A H3N3 subclade K variant that dodged the vaccine and had to cancel my plane tixx to Mom, and if the depression was high functioning before, it’s definitely not now.

I need the word for when you're not-okay but not not-okay enough to really bother folks about it because you're mostly-okay-enough. Know what I mean? I bet the Germans have something.

I need @realgdt.bsky.social to consider taking on @lairdbarron.bsky.social's gorgeous eldritch work and make my horror dreams come true

Up late, sick, of course I'm looking at what I'd need to do to get a BA in Art. Or an MA in Sociology. Or maybe an MS in Criminal Justice?

The relief of turning in the last paper for a graduate course that should have been great but was absolute trash. And as someone who teaches and evaluates uni courses, I dont make that accusation lightly. T-R-A-S-H.

Welp. My #poetry chapbook "Damnation Does Not Impress Us" was a semi-finalist with Nine Sylllables Press! Horseshoes and handgrenades, of course, but lovely to know it was enjoyed!! #booksky 💙📚 #writing 📖 @blueskypoetry.bsky.social 📝 📚☁️

This should be front page news and the cover image of every newspaper and magazine, everywhere.

@itvnews.bsky.social @channel4news.bsky.social @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @channel5news.bsky.social This is MAGA USA. Why aren't you reporting it? You must have studied how historical fascism came to power, so why are you failing to call this out? Complicity, partnership, money or cowardice?

If Amazon makes buying easier, you can grab my newest #poetry chapbook out of boats against the current press, Toothache in the Bone, there for a collection that focuses on chronic illness, grief, and the landscape of the body: www.amazon.com/dp/B0FCMCXQST

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

I have to read Paulo Coelho's The Zahir for class and it's like being forced to sit inside the mind of the most narcissistic guy in your MFA. Professor is trying to convince us it's the modern Odyssey. It is very much not.

everything today is terrible, so I bring you Steve Perry's angelic voice from 1981, in which all good things remain possible. You're welcome. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vcjz...

We all suffer and that has everything to do with poetics. Have you ever heard of Modernism? The Nazis called Modernism primitive and the work of the brutes. The only brutes on this earth are the dogs and those are the things that I love. Dorothea Lasky

Perpetrating deanery.

That reminds me, I should write a poem about the year I set myself on fire with the Thanksgiving turkey and ended up browless, lashless, and with a crewcut...

The Long Walk was one of my favorite short stories as a kid. The movie is just devastating. So well done. #movies

Of possible interest @parisnoire.bsky.social

I agree with this so hard.

What a disgrace. And what an embarrassment for @cnn.com.

lol what the wealthy today don't seem to understand is part of staying wealthy in society is not pissing off the masses. There's a reason why Carnegie and the Rockefellers poured money into institutions. Gutting institutions and making it harder for the masses to survive is a...choice.
