They’re stealing from us. They are stealing from us and we have to put a stop to this. This cannot stand.

SANTA HATES ICE! It was cold up there tonight on Gorman Rd overpass (I-95 at North Laurel, MD), but all the drivers honking and waving warmed my heart! ❤️ @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social

This was us! Gorman Rd overpass over I-95 southbound, near North Laurel, MD tonight from 4-6:30 pm. It was a glorious night up there on the overpass!

Another lit night at Gorman Rd overpass (over I-95 near Laurel, MD)! We know SANTA HATES ICE—and so do lots of honking and waving drivers. @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social

NO FASCISTS NO KINGS light brigade! A lighted sign, a lighted flag, and a lighted inflatable rubber chicken dancing to the music. (Gorman Rd overpass over I-95 in North Laurel, MD last night.) @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social

PROMOTE YOUR BOOKS! EVERYONE WANTS TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR PUBLISHED BOOKS! Do not ask me how my writing is going.

I’m grateful for my overpass comrades—lovely people all! What a joy it was to be with some of the crew tonight for the NO FASCISTS NO KINGS light brigade (Gorman Rd overpass over I-95 in North Laurel, MD). @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social @indivisiblehocomd.bsky.social

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol isn't listening to his workers. So we went directly to his luxury California office. #NoContractNoCoffee

I found a big sign at the thrift shop with some live/laugh/love stuff on it, so I painted over that with my to-do list. Feel free to make it yours, too.

A few thoughts from Chicago.

Woke up this morning with a strong sense of ownership over America. This isn’t “Donald Trump’s America” it’s OUR AMERICA. Coming to this realization brings a sense of ownership and empowerment that comes with the responsibility to hold the people who work For The People accountable.

If you couldn’t make it out to Washington, D.C. today to lobby Congress for the “Remove the Regime” rally, don’t worry, you can still help from home. Check in at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. on Facebook to boost visibility and show support. Even doing this in your PJs makes a difference!

People still seem to be battling with understanding this in 21st century

I know it’s hard. But you can’t possibly go to an academic conference that imposes restrictions on freedom of speech like this.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

NO FASCISTS NO KING in lovely Christmas lights tonight for our “light brigade” at Gorman Rd overpass over I-95! Lots of honking in support, including from many long-haul truckers. #VisibilityBrigade

‼️ACTION ALERT‼️ Eight Senate Democrats sided with the GOP to reopen the government without negotiation. Senate leader Schumer either capitulated or failed to lead his caucus. What did Democrats get in return for their votes? Nothing! 📞 Here’s a snapshot of what we need from you now: 🍃

"We’re done waiting for Dems to find their spine. We can’t afford a weak & cowardly Democratic Party while the authoritarians invade our cities, terrorize our communities, & threaten our democracy. We get the party we demand, & we intend to demand a Democratic Party that fights.” — @indivisible.org

Eight Senate Democrats saw charts like these and decided "oh yes, now that public opinion is on our side and our opponent is facing electoral consequences for their policy choices, now is a great time to give up all of our leverage in health care negotiations" www.gelliottmorris.com/p/donald-tru...

HOLD FAST, HOUSE DEMS!

I am not going to let Schumer and 8 center-right Democrats bring me down. We won on Tuesday. We're gonna keep winning. Just keep telling the stories of what the Trump administration is doing and how it's making lives so much harder, about the corruption, the incompetence, the violence.

Hey Chuck, don’t fucking cave.

Sometimes you just need a grinning grimacing smoking Marcel Duchamp to bless your day—especially when the DC art galleries are still shuttered for the gov’t shutdown. (From the 2019-2022 Marcel Duchamp exhibit at Hirshhorn.)

Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways: First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices. Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.

If Starbucks baristas have to strike, we’re striking too — with our wallets. Don’t shop at Starbucks if baristas are on strike. No contract, no coffee. Period. #NoContractNoCoffee

What is happening at Goddard is absolutely devastating. We are losing history. We are losing an incredible amount of human talent, skill, and knowledge. Rebuilding it will be impossible same for same. Industry can not absorb the people or the equipment. This is undoing space science in the US.

Hundreds of doctors, concerned citizens, public health professionals, and science allies joined us in Washington DC to let the world know: RFK Jr. has got to go! #ImpeachtheQuack @apha.org @moveon.org @physiciandemocracy.medsky.social @pnhpnymetro.bsky.social @drsforamerica.bsky.social and more

“I could smell the onions and mustard.”

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest. The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says. "I could smell the onions and mustard."

It's scary how cute Park Slope was tonight. Happy Halloween, NYC.

oh God, this is like that scene in all the presidents men when woodstein spent a couple hours asking a random lady’s opinions abt watergate in her apt and then finally realize she’s not the woman who works at CREEP.

makes me weep to think of the gifts robbed from us because unaffordable housing has made it difficult for people to pursue their passions and hobbies

The people on this airplane have a sense of duty and self-sacrifice that Donald Trump will never understand. They are NOAA employees flying their plane through the middle of the category 4 Hurricane Melissa south of Jamaica. And they aren't getting paid. I wish them safe flying and a safe return

Hanging out with Sphagnum mosses for a thousand years would be pretty sweet 💚
