Podcasting was once a rebel medium for diverse voices. Now it’s slowly being consumed by big media Podcasting was once the underdog of the media world: a platform where anyone with a microphone and an idea could share their voice. With low barriers to entry and freedom from institutional gatekeeping, it promised to amplify marginalised voices and allow underrepresented groups to tell their own s...

🧵Masked ICE thugs attempted to abduct the school nurse at Cooke Elementary School, located in the densely populated Adams Morgan section of DC. Workers at the school intervened, demanding a warrant and holding up their phones and ICE scurried off without making their arrest.

Jesus Christ. We’re here folks.

Here is a mystery: If sweeping through the door of my heart there moves continually a genuine love for you, it by-passes all your hate and all your indifference and gets through to you at your center. You are powerless to do anything about it.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Kristi Noem refused to say who financed some of her travel. It was taxpayers who were on the hook An Associated Press analysis of recently released travel records found more than $150,000 in expenses tied to Noem’s political and personal activity.

Kristi Noem billed South Dakota taxpayers more than $640,000 in personal travel-related costs, including a six-day trip to Paris, a bear hunt in Canada, a trip to Houston for dental work to fix her smile, and a book tour. But she can afford a $50,000 Rolex for a prison porn photo op in El Salvador.

Government abductions are unconstitutional.

Denying anyone the right to due process in America is unconstitutional.

If you’ve rationalized your silence or support for any of it because it’s happening to those you disagree with, give it a minute…

They’ll get to you soon enough.

Fucking. Dystopia.

Yes, tariffs are a tax, but people don't mention often enough that they are a regressive tax. Taxes on consumer goods tax the poor at a higher rate, as basic necessities are a much larger part of their spending.

If food goes up by 20%, it is a tax on the poor. Rich people won't even notice.

Greenland for the win.

Crossing the Rubicon – Thoughts on Courage, Democracy, and what we can do. In 49 BCE, Julius Caesar stood on the edge of a small river and decided to cross it, a decision that made him dictator for the remainder of his life (which was only 5 more years). Photo source In 4…

This seems unthinkable, but it's not... Have the discussions now about what you will do if ICE shows up at your hospital, clinic, or center and then have courage to protect your patients, your colleagues, and our democracy.

Journalists killed, aid workers attacked, children starving. They're trying to make us internalize that some people are disposable. Don't accept this. All of humanity is precious.

This is beyond infuriating—it’s suffocating. Our freedoms are being ripped apart, shredded by a system that’s starting to feel more like a dictatorship every damn day. We’re trapped in some twisted panopticon, watched, controlled, while dissent gets snuffed out and people are disappearing.

LET’S. FUCKING. GO.

‼️Call to Action‼️ We have a constitutional crisis in progress that demands an urgent response. Use Resist Bot to send a letter about this to Congress: resist.bot/petitions/PJ...
