Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.

It’s time to fight back.

There’s a nonzero chance you will die from a cancer that could have been curable because people who couldn’t pass 7th grade biology and are scared of things like “mRNA” and “riboflavin” and “walkable cities” decided to make their ignorance everybody else’s problem

Bondi reportedly put 1,000 people in 24-hour shifts for two weeks in March to review the Epstein files. She made them flag mentions of Trump.

And then ...

There’s no movie I love more deeply than the original. But yesterday I saw the most fun, most comic booky Superman movie ever made. And it made me so happy. What a dazzling delight. Can’t wait to see it again. Congrats, bravo and thanks @jamesgunn.bsky.social @stefceretti.bsky.social 👏💛🙏

the multiplex overthruster crew took one for the team this week - that’s right thrustericans, this week @robogeek.bsky.social, @okbjgm.bsky.social, and the ever-so-hip @producerbrad.bsky.social go peak eighties as silvester stallone directs john travolta in a sequel to “saturday night fever” ouch!

A 1940 newspaper clip from the Springfield Leader and Press, declaring: Superman Poisoning American Children, Irate Nazis cClaim."

"Superman Arouses Teutonic Anger" reads the headline in the Amarillo Daily News"

The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before?

That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators.

My how times change ...

You know it’d be really cool if there were also a companion book about Donner’s Superman, hint-hint nudge-nudge. :)

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

We have had nearly two decades of panic about Free Speech on Campus and not a single case, not even the ones they made up, were as bad as what's happening now

The best, simplest, smartest argument I’ve ever heard on this.

Opinion | America Is Pushing Its Workers Into Homelessness (Gift Article) The working homeless are casualties of our prosperity.

Things didn’t used to be this way:

“Today there isn’t a single state, city or county in the United States where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a median-priced two-bedroom apartment.”

“Since 1985, rent prices have exceeded income gains by 325 percent.”
