The Sheriff of Sundown City - Truthdig
As the final regulators burn out of the machine, Trump's mental retrogression has no limit but his expiration date.
"The grandma who starts smoking or drinking again; the grandpa who starts trying to feel up women in public. Itโs terrifying even when theyโre powerless, knowing that a familiar mind is gone, replaced by an ungoverned one, driven by an adolescent array of misfiring impulses."

๐จ#BREAKING: The University of North Carolina Asheville has completely REMOVED all of its "ALL-GENDER" bathroom signs.
It has replaced them with "SINGLE OCCUPANCY RESTROOM" signs.
There's a post over on Twitter that I've been laughing to myself about. Some right-wing guy is celebrating that a school took down "All-Gender" bathroom signs and replaced them with "Single Occupancy Restroom" signs. And like... it's the same thing, man. You're celebrating a pointless relabeling.

Bronze plaque saying "A Letter to the Future. Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it. August 2019. 415ppm CO2"
TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjรถkull to Ok (jรถkull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

If you can convince the lowest white man that he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell give him somebody to look down on and he'll empty his pockets for you" - President Lyndon Johnson
You start out in 1954 by saying, โN****r, n****r, n****r.โ By 1968 you canโt say โn****rโโthat hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, statesโ rights, and all that stuff, and youโre getting so abstract. Now, youโre talking about cutting taxes, and all these things youโre talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.โฆ โWe want to cut this,โ is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than โN****r, n****r.โ
Exactly! I'm so tired of folks trying to pretend it's about VP Harris, or the Democrats, or anything else. It has ALWAYS been about racism. Too many white folks on the left need a reality check. Lyndon Johnson explained it, Lee Atwater explained it. Nothing has changed, because WF don't want it to.

and the rooms where they were killed.
36 years ago today, 14 women, most of whom were studying engineering, were killed by an anti-feminist gun man at รcole Polytechnique in Montreal. I was a young graduate student studying physics at the time and I will never forget. #MontrealMassacre #NeverForget ๐งช ๐ฉโ๐ฌ โ๏ธ ๐ข #AcademicSky ๐จ๐ฆ
