yes! congressional control of the purse applies to the white house as well. you can defund stephen miller.

It was never about “freedom.” It was always about who was in control.

Extraordinarily corrupt. I watched FCC chair Brendan Carr's full interview on Hannity. Carr basically said straight out that coverage of Trump he deems overly hostile can be decreed contrary to the "public interest," and thus grounds for yanking licenses:

Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading.

Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own.

Just. Keep. Reading.

Cas’ birthday is today. 17 years on earth. Next year, he’ll be eligible to vote.

Happy Birthday Castiel! We’re celebrating 17 (earth) years of you! 💙🍰🎉

This is all he said.

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments.

that fox news host still has his job.

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

I’m canceling my @DisneyPlus subscription “indefinitely.”

If you're considering RSVPing to a demonstration to protest the regime that is currently asserting it's about to crack down on "leftist groups" I encourage you to just not fucking do that. Go to the protest, yes. Put your name on a list, absolutely the fuck not.

The appropriate expression with which to meet sort of 90% of the news right now. …Maybe more.

To our trans community:

We know it’s been a long year, and that the news cycle and hateful attacks can take a toll. We feel it too.

You are not alone. You are loved, you are seen, and we will never stop showing up for you.

OTW Recruitment

Do you have experience copyediting or proofreading academic journals? Would you like to wrangle #AO3 tags? Can you read and translate from Chinese or Italian to English? Do you have experience in managing or leading people? The #OTW is Recruiting! otw-news.org/w8thejrv

Join me in condemning this kind of statement and this kind of hate.

What started as targeted attacks has now spiraled, nearly any politically charged post can become a trigger.

Our recommendation:
- Lock down your privacy settings
- Remove your employer from your profile

Requesting your library buy books is great! You help authors and also get to be the first to read the pristine BRAND NEW BOOK! For FREE!

If money is tight, remember that you often can borrow DVDs of recently released movies (that wonderful people have donated) - if your library has a wait list, get on it - as well as older films and TV series.

Even if you aren’t masking anywhere else it still makes sense to wear a mask in medical settings & pharmacies because there’s a greater chance of being close to someone contagious & there are more people who are at higher risk in these places. Masking in these settings both protects you & others.

If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.

Cancel Culture Comes for Artists Who Posted About Charlie Kirk’s Death A “South Park” episode was taken off air, a DC comic series was canceled, and several artists were fired in the aftermath of the shooting.

Writers and artists are now self-censoring on topics like Palestine and queerness in anticipation of these cancelation campaigns. Much more in the story: www.wired.com/story/charli...
