Cop 101: never admit one’s own galactic stupidity.

I actually saw my Elders fired from jobs, humiliated, beaten, bombed, murdered, lynched and assassinated for the right to vote. I have a debt to pay. I repay that debt every Election Day when I vote for the candidate of my choice.

"The Holocaust was not carried out only by the truly evil and those who ran the death camps. It was carried out by lawyers who drafted the legal justifications, businessmen who used slave labor, bureaucrats who processed the paperwork, and neighbors who looked away."

I’m surprised he’s not EATING them. If there was ever a government servant who would be more at home in the freakshow… just looking at him I can smell the raw chicken entrails he ate for lunch.

“We cannot see our way clear to requiring Alabamians to cast their votes in the 2026 elections under a districting plan tainted by intentional race-based discrimination,” the panel of federal judges wrote. Intentional race based discrimination ‼️ #StopTrump #gerrymander #resist 👊🏼

The American Concentration Camp Industrial Complex and its mustacheless leader.

My dad is watching boring car shows and has been all day but he was in the navy for 25 years and isn’t annoying about it and it’s Memorial Day so I guess he can do what he wants

I loved talking to organizers in Menomonie and across Wisconsin about how they're beating back data center proposals coming from shady development companies left and right. One told me, "Organizing swiftly and fiercely and relentlessly is the key.” ✊

“Pope Leo XIV made a historic apology on Monday for the Holy See’s role in legitimizing slavery and for having failed to condemn it for centuries, calling the Vatican’s record a “wound in Christian memory.” And the only people who think less of him are those who long for its return.

The Tar Pits are an amazing place.

You don't usually rely on Iran's Fars News Agency for unvarnished truth-telling, but we can make an exception in this case.

“Success!”

The CockroArcheologists will remember this day!

The Fourteenth Amendment, written in the blood of the Civil War, says in Section 4 that this is blatantly illegal: “[N]either the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States.”

Glyphosate = greed and G R E E D K I L L S .

Sometimes, a scandal is so big you have to pick off one piece of it. So in the case of Trump's insane stock trading, pick this: He did 6 trades of Intel stock. That company now counts the US government as a $9 billion stakeholder, thanks to Trump's intervention. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

AOC: “It is time for the North to pull up to the South and let them know exactly what they have uncorked with this injustice. They think they can draw us out of power. They do not know the sleeping giant they just awakened. What they thought was the final blow is actually just the opening silo”

A visit to Dr Marx. #SocialistSunday

The most accurate portrayal of the pro-Jim Crow, white nationalist Roberts Supreme Court I've seen yet.

This is the way.

"Curzon, my beloved old friend!" "I'm Jadzia now." "Jadzia, my beloved old friend!" It's that easy. Anti-trans assholes, just be like Kor.

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t think california should be granting tax breaks to Concentration Camps that call themselves nonprofits.

Yet another in the long list of President Convict’s business failures: the American Pop Up Concentration Camp.

RICK RUBIN on why Hollywood keeps making soulless movies: "So many big movies are just not good because they're being made by people trying to make something they think someone else is going to like. That's not how art works. That's commerce."

But the genius: Each individual can act SELFISHLY & SIMPLY but still create behaviors that benefit the group. Four rules can simulate bait balls: 1. Cohesion - head towards the nearest ~5 neighbors. Fish on the outside of the ball will head inward. Fish near the middle move outward at random.

⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️™️ 🧵 Black history reaches farther than most people imagine — including the Arctic Circle. Long before the U.S. bought Alaska, Black whalers were already there. True story, fam. Pull up a seat.🪑(cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Everyone’s favorite non-topic… “Whether you agree or not, it is unlikely that ever in history have so many people been eagerly awaiting the death of a single person. Even if Genghis Khan or Joseph Stalin or, yes, even Adolf Hitler were less popular than t rump, which is impossible to measure...” 🍾

Just about exactly what you’d imagine an abyssal creature to look like.

This 1952 memo from the Pentagon UFO files is superb There is no point preparing for aliens ‘because no one of consequence is going to take this rubbish seriously unless it happens. At that point, our policy will be determined in the traditional manner of grand panic.’ 🤣 www.war.gov/medialink/uf...

This is the way.

Something is happening in the Arctic. The Arctic isn't just melting - it's becoming a worldwide target. If we don't act now, we will lose a fascinating world that we don't even fully understand yet. Don’t forget to sign the petition! www.greenpeace.org/internationa...

Sen. Mark Kelly: "If you say something that the president or this administration does not like, they're going to come after you. The president is trying to silence us, and I can't think of anything that's more un-American."

Perfectly on brand for the rapist led GOP.

Norman Rockwell painting "Southern Justice (Murder in Mississippi)." It depicts the final moments in the lives of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner, three civil rights workers killed by members of the Ku Klux Klan over 50 years ago for registering people to vote.

So Megalosaurus. It was the first dinosaur to ever be scientifically described back in 1824. However, it’s fossils were found back in the 1600’s. Specifically a femur bone in 1676. This fossil also has a name. Scrotum humanum. Yep. That was the very first name ever given to a dino fossil. 👇👇

The editorial cartoonist's pen is one of the sharpest tools in journalism, whittling issues down to basics for satire or rage. I'm proud to say that my long-ago colleague, Milt Priggee, is unafraid to shock with a tough point of view.

A lot of Platner hate is because “Random dude decides he should be one of the most powerful people in America and is welcomed as a hero with minimal scrutiny of his genuinely rather troubling background, because he checks a lot of aesthetic masculinity boxes” is a dangerous way to conduct business

BP has just more than DOUBLED its quarterly profits to USD 3.2 billion off the back of the US–Israel war on Iran and the oil price spike it created, while families worldwide are hit with higher fuel, food and energy bills. This is WAR PROFITEERING, pure and simple.

Listen I read a lot, and a lot of it is dull as hell, and I’ll tell you one thing I’ve learned: tedious writing is almost always a product of the writer conveying, rather than discovering. When a writer is discovering, or sharing discovery, no editor on earth can scrub out the vividity & joy.

📌Barack Obama was targeted 11 times in assassination attempts during this two terms. I bet you don't remember any of them because they were handled through proper channels, professionally, and he isn't a whiny bitch.

Right. It’s also worth noting that Republicans have twice chosen a convicted felon, rapist, adulterer, multiple bankrupt, draft dodger war criminal to lead their party. Thank dog for the democrats.

Gonna be interesting to see just how bad the coverage is of a shooting that happened in the middle of the press corps.

Which has traditionally been a pretty good bet. #taco

Oligarchs have always been a threat, but tech oligarchs represent a new level of danger. Their wealth dwarfs historical tycoons and their control over algorithms allows them to curate human reality. They own the digital infrastructure of thought

I love me some unspoken Italian. I believe what she is saying there is, “Bafangool!”

A lot of engagement-farming wannabe weather influencers out there trying to convince you they know more than NOAA's Climate Prediction Center: www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/ana...

“…I had an unsettling revelation: This is the hubris of accomplishment. To be declared a genius at one thing is to begin to believe you are a genius at everything.”

Gulf of America, meet the Gulf of Iran.
