Found on my camera roll from @lazz.bsky.social’s screening of “Potential History of Francesc Tosquelles, Catalonia and Fear” a few months ago… Radical psychiatrist Francesc Tosquelles cracks a pun & a smile while dropping the secret to collective life ✨🧀

Major breaking trans news: The ACLU has launched a lawsuit on behalf of 7 transgender people affected by Trump’s passport ban. Incredible filing. The Trump admin is now swarmed with lawsuits over discriminatory and illegal executive orders.

Tr**p's proposal to displace the entire Gaza population isn't shocking. He's a billionaire landlord and developer. But tons of Americans don't see a problem with homes or land as financial assets bc they think it could be them one day. The entrepreneurial fantasy is also one of escaping capitalism.

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

Libs of TikTok posts video by an Oklahoma elementary school librarian to mock the librarian for mocking the moral panic about a “woke agenda.” School superintendent reposts it. Multiple bomb threats to the school follow. www.newson6.com/story/64e621...

no rock left unprofessionalized

This time it'll be different, they say to themselves before posting nothing

I wrote this piece in The Nation about the cuts at WVU and how small states will crush their R1 unis to cash grab for big tech. WVU is the only R1 in WV and these cuts will shred higher ed in the state. Please read and share.
