Perfection.

No Kings in Utqiaġvik (Barrow) Alaska!

we are not going to outchud the republican party and theirs are not our values

🧵 White supremacists love to judge who is “worthy,” and somehow only find people just like them are worthy of help or even compassion. A toxic idea baked into American culture at every level.

it's funny how many people want the dems to turn on the trans community more than they want air, but dems keep not doing it. anyway, good for dems here.

And government officials in charge of funding and communicating about public health are making sure the next pandemic (not to mention annual flu, ongoing COVID, and now measles) will kill even more. A tragedy on every level.

Performing virtue is good, actually.

19 March 1920 | A Pole, Bolesław Baran, was born in Będzin. In #Auschwitz from 5 January 1943. No. 85452 He perished in the camp on 10 April 1943. --- 📖 "Poles at KL Auschwitz”: http://lekcja.auschwitz.org/en_2020_06_polacy/

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH

At the beginning of the pandemic some disabled people felt hope. We saw inclusion and accessibility improve overnight. We saw accommodations put in place that we had spent years begging for. We saw the world adapt. That hope was ripped away during the rush back to normal. It still hurts.

My middle school nieces were at a suburban water park with their Jewish day camp over the summer. People yelled at the (child) campers ”Hitler should’ve finished the job!”

Imagine what it’s like to go through metal detectors and bag checks on your way in to your religious services. Jews don’t have to imagine. It’s what we always do.

His indifference to violence and death hoo boy.

More than half of the country lives in cities and yet every political ad has to go country and "heartland."

When Jesse Jackson was born, he couldn't register to vote. When Jesse Jackson died, he was eulogized by a Black president & vice president. The man kept hope alive even in death.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were. These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War. Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35 Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42 Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39 Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH

A Democrat just flipped a 🔴 Arkansas state house seat - and it wasn’t close. Alex Holladay ran in 2024 and lost by two points. He just won by … 27. In Arkansas. Run everywhere, friends. Run everywhere. 💙

Tell all your IL family and friends to vote for Juliana Stratton

everything about this is so unspeakably evil and rage-inducing, but the fact that a non-zero number of Republicans believe Ayatollah Khomeini and Ayatollah Khamenei are the same guy makes me want to S C R E A M

meanwhile, war rages on at home.

Five members of the US Men’s Gold Medal Hockey team have refused Trump’s White House invitation. Four of them are from Minnesota. This is how you resist. You don’t participate in misogynistic locker room talk. You don’t disparage other members of your sport. You don’t visit fascists.

Mostly I’m just embarrassed

If there was one thing I wish everyone would understand, it is how our definition of “religion“ is itself Christian.

Each Olympic host country faces the daunting challenge of how to stage a closing ceremony more perplexing and impressively weird than all the ones that came before.

The Olympic closing ceremony parade docent outfits tonight are even more perplexing than the opening ceremony silver sleeping bags.

Many disabled and chronically ill people are demonized for not working full-time jobs, when the truth is they can be forced out due to inaccessible policies. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I’m tired, hoss.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

This men’s long program is *stressful.* I think everyone needs a do-over tomorrow. #FigureSkating

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

I think we should put an end to the storyline of “you’re being told this to trick you away from paying attention to that.” It’s its own form of conspiracism that doesn’t alleviate the core issue of *crafting conspiracies to make sense of things that are confusing and overwhelming*

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

The idea of a bill rendering people deportable for following religious law should make every Jew ill

NEW: ProPublica went inside the detention center for immigrant families in Dilley, Texas. Children held there told us about the anguish of being ripped from their lives in the United States and the fear of what comes next.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

Of course the cretins who pretend to care about waste think nothing of taking 14 planes to Italy on the taxpayer’s dime. 🤮

AWFUL news tonight. This blesses the “mandatory” detention in the 5th Circuit without bond (and little chance at habeas) of every undocumented immigrant who originally entered across the border, no matter how many decades in the past. It will fuel ICE’s push to transfer people to Texas immediately.

Here's a basic fact: most conspiracy theories tend towards antisemitism. Yes, that one. Mmm hmm, even that seemingly harmless one. Flat Earthers? Moon Landing Truthers? Antisemitism. Q-Anon? 9/11 Inside Job? Antisemitism.

It’s weird how the White House can just blame a “staffer” for the racist post as if just any low level flunky can pretend to be the President of the United States at any random time.

Jeff Bezos' wedding last summer cost somewhere around $50M. That, alone, could have saved all 300 positions cut today at The Washington Post for a year. Of course, he wouldn't have to choose. He could do both because he's worth $250B, which is nearly the GDP of New Zealand.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH

Yes. There are millions of things to rightfully hate about Donald rather than reverting to schoolyard taunts about diapers.
