This 1975 Christenberry photo of a grave marked w/ a cross made of egg cartons in Christenberry’s native Hale County (same as of Evans’ photos & RaMell Ross’s documentary) is anything but nostalgic. Sociologically & theologically it’s devastating, or ecstatic, or both.

So I FINALLY figured out who I've been hearing in bands like #AllThemWitches and #TheBlackAngels. This is from 1974. #RobinTrower influenced a lot of musicians (whether they know it or not) & deserves more attention when folks start talking great 70's rockers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLyE...

The Roberts Court, the Trump White House, and the national GOP are acting like this is their one big shot. Either they secure the lasting end of US Constitutional democracy, or they’re in very serious trouble from the backlash. And they’ve already gone so far that there’s no other possibility.

One reason FDR's court-packing plan failed to catch on is that the Supreme Court was perceived by many Americans as apolitical and therefore a victim of unwarranted aggression from the president. This court, however, is nakedly partisan. And any Democrat in power should be saying so early and often

SCOTUS is staging a coup & we should call it that

I still can't believe that not one single news outlet did a story on this. That's just amazing to me. Every scientist I know who works in the life sciences thought it was fascinating and had a million questions. 🧪

You do not hate the DOGE people enough. Boys with toys breaking things they were too arrogant and lazy to understand.

Around 1009 CE, English king Æthelred II minted coins featuring Christian motifs that he hoped would protect his people from Vikings. Vikings turned the coins into jewelry.

Yup. Your job as regular person is not to parse whether particular policies are 'realistic' or 'possible.' You are supposed to actually demand what you need to live a dignified life.

Trevor Project released its annual LGBTQ youth mental health report. The results are shocking. 40% of trans youth seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year. Trans youth who wanted hormones but couldn’t access them were nearly twice as likely to attempt suicide than those who could.
