can we PLEASE correct the timeline and after his late show exit, get the return of The Colbert Report, plzzzzz 😩

I think Kimmel walked a magnificent tightrope tonight, with just the right amount of Fuck You, Make Me wafting through the circus tent.

If you’re wanting to know more about the deeply entangled history of American animation and vaudeville minstrelsy, here’s a deeply informative thread. I only learned this because animation was my major. And I didn’t even have the time to learn all of it. (But that’s a whole other issue.)

after today, I’d say we’re at least at 4.5 watergates. so close my people! so close.

I hope this helps others also see how I believe Palestinian Statehood will lead to Haudenosaunee, Diné, Cherokee, Dakota, Lakota, Pueblo, and so many other overdue formal Statehoods here too. None of us are free until all of us are free. Land fu-ducking-back baby.

DECOLONIAL THREAD: Many struggle to understand the difference between Native Americans and Mexican or Latino people with Indigenous heritage. People ask: aren't we all Native to the Americas? Why are we not called Native American too? If we take the literal word then: yes, they are. However- (1/7)

hey there everybody, I was voted onto the WGA Board of Directors, thank you so much for your support! if you didn’t support me, it’s fine just no eye contact for a bit

btw: THIS is where your "ethically sourced sage" comes from at your local "spiritual" shop, people! You should not be buying white sage. *Ever*. It should be gifted or self-grown. It is one of the most ILLEGALLY POACHED AND SOLD medicines. And when poached, it becomes sick too. Don't buy it.

its not surprising Americans are going through spiritual psychosis. we have removed all nature, all connection, and all spirit from ourselves to create what this country represents. It requires insanity for its foundation. we feel insane because we actually are.

I love how the government is going after the two biggest threats we face right now. The two groups responsible for the most violence, the most death and suffering here in the United States. You know the ~checks notes~ Trans folks and autistic people.

YouTube removed a channel that was dedicated to posting AI-generated videos of women being shot in the head following 404 Media’s request for comment. The videos were clearly generated with Google’s new AI video generator tool. 🔗 www.404media.co/ai-generated...

Our Police serve the Police-state, which is a surveillance state made by the Rich to exert control on the Poor. Their point is to violate of our freedom, life, & happiness to keep us in line. Police uphold the State, which is racist, violent, & genocidal. To change this, the State must change.

This thread tracks completely with my long held belief that America needs to sit down and have a serious conversation about what we want police FOR. And then to invest in them and other non-police programs appropriate to those duties. Because police aren't the best solution for many things

People are dunking on this, but having worked in the field of police oversight for the last four years, listening to residents from every part of a major U.S. city, it doesn't surprise me at all. A few points 🧵

When you realize the parallel that Israel's ethnic-cleansing of Palestinians is the same as the United State's ethnic-cleansing of Native and Indigenous Latinos, the more you'll understand how interconnected this all is and how essential it is to collapse. We're so close to connecting the dots.

hell yeah

i'll take "duh, it was going to lead to soulless, exhausting, and time-consuming proofing for everyone" for 1000 please

A new study, based on a survey of 1,150 workers suggests that the injection of AI tools into the workplace has not resulted in a magic productivity boom and instead increased the amount of time that workers say they spend fixing low-quality AI-generated “work.” 🔗 www.404media.co/ai-workslop-...

the real rapture was the cults we exposed along the way

reveal: the rap-ture is just cardi b's new album slapping hard

not to get dark, but there are incinerators at "Alligator Alcatraz" DHS on 8/14: "Incinerators are not being used for nefarious purposes... Any allegations of inhumane conditions are FALSE." we've seen how people have come out of there. the second statement is a lie. which means, so is the first.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

there's someone on the internet i came across and developed a stupid parasocial crush on but then they had to go follow me back and then liked my joke in their DM and anyway just me blushing over here, nothing to see, CARRY ON (the chronically online understand... 😭 - I an INNOCENT SAPIO BABY OK)

it's called demo-cratic for a reason! time to demolish and start something new! the french get it! oui oui!

Glad Disney reinstated Kimmel. It’s now up to everyone to prove to Sinclair they’ve made a horrible mistake. This means calling their advertisers, boycotting their channels, and protesting outside their stations. It can’t stop here. We did it with the Tesla Takedown. Time for Sinclair Takedown.

The homeopathic cure for autism already exists

This morning, we joined Congresswoman Laura Friedman to condemn ABC’s suspension of #JimmyKimmelLive. This afternoon, the show was brought back. 👏

There are many reasons preordering a book is great. One of those is sometimes, booksellers send your book out to you before the book is released. Sneak peek for you ;D. (If you haven’t preordered, we’re two weeks out!)

i would not be shocked if jimmy kimmel's return to the air isn't accompanied by a slightly less noisy announcement that rates for "returning" streaming service customers will be raised twenty percent.

tfw i come on here to tell everyone i have a new, obscure soccer history deep dive coming soon

“It gives the illusion I was standing as some lone warrior in a cloud of gas,” Evans said. “It just happened to be the way the photo was framed. But people got hurt, people were hurt purposefully.”

There’s a certain type of poster that seems to think it’s helpful to stamp out anything hopeful in the name of being realistic about how bad things are. Don’t be that poster. We know how bad things are. But for most of us, hope helps a lot more than your cynicism. Rebellions are built on hope…

OLIVER: “In Russia, when Putin rose to power, TV satirists were among his first targets… Putin was driven to madness by how he was mocked on a puppet show… the lesson is it’s not safe to let one show slide because there are currently others.”

Voting closes tomorrow at noon Pacific time. PLEASE don’t forget to vote. Every WGA election, turn out is dismal and this only hurts guild members. If you’re a lower or mid level TV writer, your vote matters now more than ever — we have NO representation on the BOD. Change that by voting!

Sounds like the segregationists in Connecticut are having a grand ole time “While waiting for the police to arrive, the old Karen’s friend said, ‘You’re not the minority anymore.'” www.blackenterprise.com/alex-okeefe-...

This is why respectability politics was always a losing game. Nothing we do matters because it will always be an issue. There is no conforming or changing we can do. We're back to the truly emboldened making efforts to put us "in our place". So don't tell us we're overreacting; never have been.

Arrested because a white woman demanded he change the way he was sitting and when he didn’t, she complained to the conductor about his posture. His posture.

if you’re feeling anxious over the state of the United States, please watch the Bad Bunny concert. especially if you’re white. that shit is pure, gold, ancestral medicine 🇵🇷🌺

bad bunny is the reason im gonna end up learning spanish as a northeast Native girl - BET

If you’re on Threads and spreading your social media intake across platforms but want a solid list of Native Voices to start with, I made this Feed (AKA Starter Pack) over there too!

While ppl are boycotting Disney a reminder that Sinclair and Nexstar are also the problem. They started this. Canceling Disney subscriptions hurts Disney but does nothing to Sinclair/Nexstar. We also need to boycott companies that advertise on Nexstar and Sinclair stations.

Keir Starmer set to announce UK recognition of Palestine later today - UK politics live

“With a single post or video, we can influence thousands of guests to try a food, drink, or experience in the parks,” she says. “I couldn’t, in good conscience, keep giving them free publicity knowing they don’t support free speech and are willing to bow to fascism."

The Disney & ABC boycott is WORKING 🔥 Let’s keep going! We the PEOPLE have the power. Sinclair, the broadcasting company that owns hundreds of ABC affiliate stations, has BACKED OUT of airing a remembrance of Charlie Kirk, posting a YouTube link instead. #BoycottDisneyABC #Sinclair #JimmyKimmel

see with inflation in 2025, we need at least 7.96 watergates to get 1 watergate from 1971

"They’ve externalized their inner world of fear, fragmentation, and unresolved pain into the political realm, believing that control would finally bring the internal stability and coherence they crave. But a win in the external world cannot resolve an internal war. The void remains..."

This is an interesting read

This is vital reading, friends. Us settlers must not think these points relate only to the MAGA extreme. We all have work to do to examine our ancestors and what psychological aspects of colonialism we still cling to.

They say they are not their ancestors. But they are their ancestors pain. They are their ancestors guilt. And that fear will never subside, no matter how many people they terrorize or kill for it. The only way out for them is through.

I don't think people acknowledge how amazing fandom is enough. Fandom is inspiring, comforting, energizing, and galvanizing in a time of extreme pressure and uncertainty for so many folks. It brings about connections that otherwise might never have clicked due to circumstance.
