The president said "Fuck you" to a citizen and only the citizen will face any consequences

I’m always trying to rise above though my instinct is to sink below

They don't have capacity to terrorize more than 2-3 cities at a time. Which means they rotate teams to new cities without relief. Which means consistent resistance by fresh activists in each new city will break them over time. Which means if you're city's not occupied, rest up and get ready.

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

Reformed January 6th participant (who refused a pardon): “You can't gaslight me. I was there. I saw the officers being pepper sprayed. I watched one of them fall down and hit his head and his back. So don't be telling me it wasn't violent.”

I think it's time to start calling it the trump regime not administration.

Mike Johnson’s office says the legally required plaque to honor police officers who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is “not implementable” and will NOT be hung — despite being mandated by law.

According to a new report, 33 of the January 6 rioters Trump pardoned on his first day in office have since been charged, arrested, or convicted of new crimes. Trump is happy to put criminals back on our streets so long as they are loyal to him.

At what point do we just say invasion? Trump is talking about invading Greenland. Period.

A former leader of Turning Point Action was sentenced to two years of probation and barred from running for office for five years for forging voters’ signatures on his petitions as part of his 2024 bid for re-election to the Arizona House.

Honored that @nimishabarton.bsky.social reviewed my book for the AHR! Such a pinch-myself moment.

When I’m walking and I get to the intersection, I press the walk button at least seven times so that it knows I mean business

My bb invented a new game called how bad can I break it.

Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

If you let him get away with this, he’ll do it with Iran and whatever other neocon bugaboos have been lingering around conservative media since Obama first started running. Maybe Greenland but less intense because white. One of them will invariably respond in the mainland U.S. Stop him before then.

can't believe the guy whose entire political philosophy revolves around domination would turn out to be a hawk

The kidnapping of Maduro inaugurates a highly dangerous era of U.S. empire that for perhaps the first time in an era of mass media is not pretending to be anything other than a violent, extractive enterprise of domination.

And there ya have it… Officials from top Wall Street firms will be traveling to Venezuela to investigate “investment prospects” of the country. “The trip will feature about 20 officials from the finance, energy and defense sectors.”

Democrat leaders on this platform want you to believe they are the party of resistance while supporting genocide, rubber stamping Trump's nominees, folding on trans rights, using far-right rhetoric about migrants, working with mass surveillance companies, getting mad they weren't in on a coup.

Thank god Chuck Schumer isn’t alive to see this.

Yes, this is exactly the time to demand Democrats "do something." They can denounce Trump's actions as unconstitutional. They can state that he must be impeached and removed. They can make clear that all involved will be held accountable. These are the core duties of a role they all signed up for.

Lots of people in Venezuela are hoping that we will stop our government and capitalists from stealing their resources.

NYT gonna NYT: "Both Mr. Mamdani and Mr. Maduro identify as socialists, though they have no relationship.” — would be funny if they did this every time you write about two capitalists. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/03/w...

We’re an occupying force. Again.

I've been tracking the spread of nonconsensual deepfakes on X for more than two years. Here's a timeline of how Musk's leadership allowed the practice to flourish from a once-underground market to a viral trend, with little recourse for victims or legal enforcement. spitfirenews.com/p/grok-csam-...

Flip both houses of Congress so we can defund ICE please.

Same vibe

1. Headlines everywhere today read "Grok apologizes." This is bullshit. A chatbot is not something that can apologize. Pretending otherwise is simple laundering these companies' bullshit about what AI is, while diffusing blame away from the human beings that developed and released this system.

Attention: today I had childcare so took the day off to watch one battle after another. I am pleased to announce that I’m officially ready for Your Discourse and Hot Takes

Zohran is already making Regular People's lives harder...

📣 Proud of our new paper revealing that 2 in 5 renters in cancer treatment can't pay their housing or utility bills, along with 1 in 9 homeowners. Cancer patients need housing supports and a healthcare system that doesn't impoverish families fighting life-threatening chronic illness. #episky 🧪

In celebration of Mamdani's first day in office, the map from our 2016 NYC atlas celebrating Queens as the most linguistically diverse place on earth. (800 languages spoken in NYC, according to NY's Endangered Language Institute, which collaborated with us on this map.

happy Mamdani to all who celebrate!

“Ugh, not another one” -me, ringing in the new year

My bb has developed a system for opening doors. She screams super loud until someone opens the door. It’s genius!

It’s winter break so I’ve been able to immerse myself in fiction once again. But the more novels I read, the more interiority I have. I can’t stop narrating my life to myself.

Some of the characters in these baby books are very one dimensional.

I wish the legacy media would talk about the fact that almost no one under 40 can buy a house, insurance premiums are set to skyrocket, and most Americans are living from paycheck to paycheck instead of *checks notes* the finer feelings of billionaires.

I had the pleasure of reviewing @elisefranklin.bsky.social terrific book Disintegrating Empire: Algerian Family Migration and the Limits of the Welfare State in France for the AHR. Here's sneak preview:
