This is a cursed cliffhanger

Drains across the Iranian capital Tehran are continuing to explode after earlier Israeli and US strikes on oil depots and infrastructure. Medical experts are warning the toxic smoke and runoff has increased the risk of deadly illnesses, including cancer.

A few years ago I started replacing every "we should" with "I should" and this really helps me to stay grounded.

Hard to make (queer) slaves without drapetomanic discourses.

Seems bad.

Ryan Coogler said, ”I wanted to be a director since I was 17 and found out what it was. But way before that, I wanted to be a part of a union.” Here’s Coogler discussing the influence of his family’s union memberships. deadline.com/2026/02/ryan...

Not a bottom or a top or a side but a secret fourth unimaginable horror

Yes.

In 1915, Clara Zetkin and the socialist feminists of the Second International Women’s Conference declared war on war. On this International Women’s Day, with U.S. and Israeli bombs falling on Iran, it’s time to take up that legacy again.

Yes.

I'm well past tired of lazy "we".

"It is time to abandon the illusion that states serve the peoples. Nation-states are the fundamental pillars of the capitalist system. "Peoples know they are oppressed, exploited, and suppressed... yet due to the illusion that life without the state is impossible, they tolerate these usurpations."

Yes.

It’s already happening. Iran attacked a desalination plant in Bahrain. This war has to end immediately. If it turns into a water war we will be dealing with a whole different level of a humanitarian catastrophe across the region. aje.news/64yl8m?updat...

Nice video of birds chirping in the morning in Palestine. Audio on.

Horrifying scenes from Tehran as oil depots are on fire, poisoning the environment. As with Gaza, the goal is ecocide, to make Iran unlivable. aje.news/64yl8m?updat...

Secret reasons are the best reasons.

Listen.

USians really missed this one, I fear. The whole series would go SILLY as a TV show right now.

Last year, we co-authored a child advocacy amicus brief that helped free a detained immigrant teen in New York. Now, we’re sharing a template based on that success to help others fight for the release of children in detention. Download and adapt this resource to support youth: https://bit.ly/3MTaeUw

If this were a competent, trustworthy administration committed to imperial dominance at all costs, it would be concerning. And to some extent it is. But the lack of competency, trustworthiness, and the added internal competition among (MANY) self-interested people makes it functionally a demotion.

Yes I am a master gardener and yes I will make you look at my zucchini! Enjoy and appreciate them! 😘

I still stand by this, btw. Chicago bout to show y'all the way. 😤

🗣️🗣️ THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT!! 👏🏾👏🏾

Black queer communities on the South and West Sides of Chicago are determined to thrive across generations despite the aftermath of widespread loss and disconnection. https://www.citybureau.org/newswire/2026/3/4/how-two-public-health-crises-fractured-intergenerational-black-queer-mentorship

Jesus.

Yesterday and today we helped welcome 1,000 Chicago high school students to the polls for the first time. Democracy looks good on Chicago’s youth. Thank you Chicago Votes for making it happen!

The kids are all right!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

Let us make a quilt. Quote tweet or reply to this post (or quote/reply to the quotes/replies) with things you've read or heard from others about Jesse Jackson and the impact(s) he had. Not his quotes. Quotes of those he helped, nurtured, or shepherded. Include links if you can. #JacquardForJesse

It's so encouraging that this piece starts with Jeanette Taylor. Phenomenal woman. capitalbnews.org/jesse-jackso...

TOAD WILL NOW DANCE, AND HE WILL BE WONDERFUL.

Let me start a belated thread of Aotearoa New Zealand silvan birds. To lead things off, a New Zealand Bellbird photographed on Kapiti Island.

In order: Pink Panther, Tweety Bird, Strawberry CRUNCH, Lemon CHILL

This and anticommunism. Without the commitment to antiblackness a few of us would probably be living part-time on the moon. Without it and anticommunism I feel very confident in saying we'd have colonies on Mars.

Even in this photo you can see a kind of quiet desperation masking deep, deep insecurities. It's in the eyes. It's always the eyes.

blown out from dumb shit

My friend the climatologist tells me what worries him is the climate. My friend the epidemiologist tells me what worries them are infections. My friend the historian tells me what worries her are the people who aren’t worried.

Now that Noem is Hoem, I think I'll mosey on over to one of them apps and find me some mischief.

A group of tenants in a building just blocks from the Obama Presidential Center, which is scheduled to open in June, are fighting to stay in their homes after learning the foreclosed Woodlawn property could be sold.

35 years ago, Sonny Burton robbed an AutoZone. He didn't kill anyone. Yet the state of Alabama is set to execute him next Thursday if Gov. Kay Ivey doesn't intervene. Take action here: www.charlessonnyburton.com www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/o...

Disappointing but not completely surprising. With enough time and/or pressure any system will crack. The trick is making sure your fallback option/response also dovetails with a larger strategic plan.

Geo Group, CoreCivic (formerly CCA), CACI, and G4S all have EXTENSIVE histories of propping up carceral infrastructure and detention in this country. Not at all surprised to see them here.

IF Y'ALL AREN'T GOING TO ERASE ALL THE DEBT AND CHANGE CREDIT SCORES FOR THE BETTER, THEN STOP HACKING!!!!

Be rich must be part of the answer cuz I don't see ANYTHING special. 🫣

A lot of y’all argue with and about white people like it’s your job, and I implore you to stop. You’re too smart for it. They’re energy vampires & you’re feeding them a full course meal. This does not mean ignore serious world events. Instead, decenter whiteness from your response to the events.
