"Hold on, we actually allow a failsafe" The failsafe: Having a birth certificate, ID, and being willing to sign an affidavit on penalty of perjury. This is what gendered administrative burdens look like. academic.oup.com/jpart/articl...

The drunk uncle theory. You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

I was starving after some patio cleaning and pruning and now with a full stomach i’m just sitting in the sun after all those weeks of rain

Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….

Wild that a sitting member of Congress, a Republican no less, feels compelled to post this.

Meta thinks now is a great time to launch facial recognition surveillance tech in their creepy glasses because EFF will be too distracted by fascism to notice. We noticed. www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

For more on how conditions at Dilley are affecting children, read my latest for @nbcnews.com

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

It announces: Heavy restrictions on any social transition (which in any case would be very limited, see above). Social transition to be hardly ever allowed at primary school. Heavily pushed under psychological scrutiny. Supportive parents deemed suspect & linked to need for safeguarding.

New School Guidance announces: Full bathroom ban. Full PE ban. Full school trip accommodation ban. Trans kids will not go to the bathroom, do PE or go on any school trips. 1/

I'm the guy who counts all the threads in sheets

They discussed: — Switching to the U.S. dollar — Border security — Taxes and national debt — Alberta’s pension system — Even creating “an independent military” The group insists: “We were not advocating for Alberta to become the 51st state.”

🇨🇦🇺🇸 Far-right Canadian separatists from the Alberta Prosperity Project (APP) say they met three times with “very, very senior” Trump administration officials in 2025, with another meeting planned, - The Daily Beast

noem and lewandowski are like the most toxic couple you have ever met given full rein of a government agency www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

we live in a country where the secretary of HHS declaring that he snorts cocaine off toilet seats isn't even a news item

Walz: "The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There's going to be accountability on things that happened, but one of them is the incredible and immense cost borne by the people of this state. The federal government needs to be responsible."

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones. Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

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

Finally sunny today after weeks and weeks of rain

i'm not doomscrolling i'm scrollmaxxing

MS NOW: "A congressional official with knowledge of the matter is telling MS NOW the cause of the shutdown of El Paso airspace is a lack of communication between the Pentagon and FAA. The official told us the FAA and DOD are 'not in clear communications with each other.'"

We’ve all had days where we’ve woken up, forgotten to brush our teeth, and closed all El Paso airspace for an hour instead.

uhhh what's going on in el paso

At least two dozen Immigration and Customs Enforcement employees and contractors have been charged with crimes since 2020, and their documented wrongdoing includes patterns of physical and sexual abuse, corruption and other abuses of authority, the AP reports: apnews.com/article/ice-...

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency. She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

The United States is purposefully blockading Cuba from accessing fuel that powers everything from grocery stores to hospitals. People will die. Children will die. What's being done to the people of Cuba is monstrous. The people in power were ok with it in Gaza and now they're doing it to Cuba.

i think this more than anything is what miller wants. vast detention camps with all of the suffering and death that means.

Valentine’s doesn’t have to mean flowers. Sometimes it’s a good book, a quiet walk, and learning about the birds and the bees, purely nature-based of course! 😏 A lovely gift, even if it is for yourself bit.ly/3wmzgTp

it drives you insane how much erosion of freedom is justified by concern for kids when the people who actually hurt them will never face consequences

That moment when you forget about the whole of Eurovision existing

3 years ago I was traveling for work and relaxing in a nice hotel room with some treats

They are saying Kid Rock handed his Grammy to lil’ Kyle Rittenhouse during the halftime show. (Not true. Kid Rock has never won a Grammy).

Bad Bunny’s performance began in the plantation, featured broken electric poles, and ended by centering a hemispheric understanding of “América”—among many other things—and some Anglo journalists are like “his performance wasn’t political.” This is why we need to be telling our stories.

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most American cities.

And this one!

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

A beautiful reminder of how big America is

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit
