Forensic analysis of objective video evidence. This is how you serve readers searching for clarity.

If we don’t act now, this will become the norm. Must be swift, in large numbers, and have clear messaging that we will not stand for this. Not now. Not ever. Against any minority population.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Hi! Are you doomscrolling? Do you have something fun planned today? Naps and trips to Costco count! If your job does not involve being on social media, I recommend logging off and doing something else. Lots of options, including reading a book, going to a museum and watching the gay hockey show. 🏒

Also, when reporters start talking about the chatbots this way, it is imperative to remind them they are basically asking a toaster for comment. They should be a lot more embarrassed about this than they currently are. “Grok told CNN…” no it didn’t. You typed stuff into an unreliable calculator.

Great.

I…just…seriously?

Treat anyone wearing these mass-surveillance loser glasses as if they're holding up their phone camera a foot away from your face

Minutes ago today the Trump regime abruptly cancelled citizenship ceremonies for several immigrants in Boston. THEY CANCELLED CITIZENSHIP CEREMONIES. These immigrants followed every rule & did everything right—Trump banned them anyway. All are from Black & brown majority nations. This Is Fascism.

So while we’re here, while we can, we fight.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

I wish the democrats liked Mamdani as much as Trump does.

Zohran flip your hair again we need healthcare get him to give us healthcare.

Is this a dementia thing? Did he forget he’s president? Does he think it’s 30 years ago and he has to kiss the NYC mayor’s ass to get building permits?

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

All the querying writers out there are sighing. “Even cheese can get an agent.”

APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN! With the destruction of the U.S. Department of Education and 2026 marking the beginning of student loan caps for American students who cannot afford their dreams out of pocket, my nonprofit continues to step in to ensure women have what the need.

Saturday morning beach clean up (followed by surfing/boogie boarding) A lot of things suck about TX, but surfing without a wetsuit in November isn’t one of them. (Texas got 99 problems, but the beach ain’t one).

Can confirm, I did say this, over on Threads. I stand by it here as well. And everywhere else!

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

None of these people should ever know peace.

I told a college student he needed to avoid using second-person pronouns in his essay. He looked around the room, then at me. “Uhh, I’m a dude.”

For querying writers: I did a critiques today for an SCBWI conf & got questions about what kind of books you can cite as comps, & I think it’s worth distinguishing between *pitching* comps and *selling* comps. A brief 🧵:

Someone else's success in the publishing industry doesn't diminish your own chance of success. Boost fellow writers and illustrators. Try very hard not to compare yourself to others (I struggle with this, too). Focus on finding your own joy at your own pace. #Uplift

Lots of brilliant takeaways about the election results from folks way smarter than me, but I can’t help but feel relief and joy at the idea that maybe most people don’t suck, after all

Monarchs have migrated to my front yard.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same
