And I do think some of it is shock. The kids were really quiet as they shared. They know how awful it is. All of it. Just so, so sad. So so heartbreaking. Those children. Their sweet faces. A teacher. A mother and brother. That little girl in hospital. The situation. It’s just so painful.😞

cool, cool. so we are sort of like citizens, but not really?

I’m still in shock about Tumbler Ridge. 1 of my kids said 2day, I don’t want to look @ the news anymore. 1 said, Can we just be normal for a bit? 1 said, My ❤️ doesn’t usually break when things happen in the 🌎 because there’s so much bad stuff, but my ❤️ did when I heard. They talked, I listened.

I'm just going to say a thing. What a person looks like is not reflective of their soul. Insulting the appearance of bad people who do bad things as an outcome or indication of their rotten hearts perpetuates the notion that conventional beauty = virtue, a myth that's led to untold human damage.

Had the funniest moment ever in my career as a teacher 2day. A kid did a big ‘ol Freudian slip outloud & we cackled so hard I was 😂. The kids near us were laughing, 2. Then she says ‘Thank goodness u laughed, Ms F, because I would’ve been MORTIFYINGLY embarrassed if u hadn’t’. I do ❤️ the kiddos.

Yet another indictment of the United States health system that James Van Der Beek’s wife and six kids need a gofundme because his unsuccessful cancer treatment destroyed them financially www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Oh. Good. Just what’s going to help bring people together.

Wow is right. Full on surveillance.

Damn straight.

Thank you for making listening to the hockey games so vivid and exhilarating, as if one is watching the game as it's happening. 🫶🏻💔 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

When it’s happening in Finland, it’s happening everywhere X10.

Sending prayers and strength to those grieving the loss of loved ones in #TumblerRidge. An unimaginable pain and grief is happening there tonight and in the days, weeks, month, years ahead. I cannot fathom what they are experiencing. They need to be remembered & supported.

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

I’m sick. Again. Spent most day coughing up a lung - and trying to stay hydrated and unstuffy. Been scrolling too much. And, also, tried to do a bit of work (even though my brain is moosh). Tomorrow is another day - of likely feeling not great, but hopefully better than today.

People on Reddit are getting Amazon to refund their Ring products because of their partnership with Flock and that creepy Super Bowl ad www.reddit.com/r/FlockSurve...

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Speaking of spaces that help hide and keep people safe…. This is such an important piece of history.

Good. This is how it gets done. Block it. Block the ineptness and madness.

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

Oh! And ‘Resistance: They Fought Back’ was really good, too. Incredibly brave what people did. Resistance looks like all kinds of things. Helping folks survive is exactly that.

For anyone interested, there r a few docs that deal w this, including ‘The Invisibles’ & ‘Into the Arms of Strangers: Stories of the Kindertransport’. ‘Arms of Strangers’ was nominated for an Oscar & is powerful. It shows ppl’s attempt to save children. The one I watched a few days ago: Unbroken

This is why primarying people matters. Suddenly everybody involved in this race is in a firm spine contest.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

Sport will always be a platform for politics and power. Glad some of these athletes are speaking a bit of truth to power.

Bad Bunny, Kendrick Lamar, and Beyonce are three of the most globally popular artists rn. We are so lucky they are so smart and work so hard to use their art to teach cultural history lessons through music, dance, and visually magnificent sets when they could just stand there in jorts and lip sync.

The IOC would like to remind you that sports are non-political which is why everyone competes under the banner of a political entity and also why you can't call Taiwan, Taiwan.

Jon Stewart nailed it tonight when he asked why is it the Super Bowl halftime performer’s responsibility to unify the country and not somebody else’s.

If you havent figured it out by now... "Avoiding politics" is not impressive or something to be proud of. Its literally what's got us into every single mess we're in as a society. Pay attention. Stop being silent...

Was it just me or did Pedro Pascal look GOOD at the Super Bowl halftime show? The longer hair, glasses (love me a man w some glasses) & that cream-coloured suit was on point. Also, he looked like he was having a good time & we all need that kind of joy right now. #pedropascal #SuperBowlHalfTimeShow

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. Please write in pen & double-space. Don’t forget to write your name at the top of the sheet.

Her community rallied so fast and so diligently. This is a victory to uphold and celebrate. Reminds everyone that it's worth fighting back.

I made the BEST 🌮 salad - & even though my appetite isn’t doing great, I ate well today (I don’t often, as I’m too busy). It was healthy-ish. Salad, 🍅, 🥑, 🫘, brown rice, low fat sour cream, pico de gallo, vegan 🧀, green onion & cilantro. My son ate 2 servings. He said, so good…10 out of 10, mom!

Lindsay Vonn gives her first statement since her devastating crash in the Olympic downhill

You know what they’re going to store in those warehouses? People

Kind of brilliant and so smart. So smart and symbolic that they’re not going to get it.

To reject the US as a fundamentally American country with a deep shared history and commonality with the rest of the Americas, including that Spanish has long been our de facto national second language, is on a deep level anti-American. It's hating actual American culture and history and tradition.

what a shot

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

There are a lot of people who are going to complain about being unfairly vilified by that halftime show and it's because they know in their hearts they're on Team Hate.

Unidos somos América.

From Bad Bunny's #SuperBowl halftime performance.

They sang “American Idiot”

The ending to Bad Bunny's halftime show: "The only thing more powerful than hate is love" "Together, we are America"
