Maybe the MAGAs will care about this (since they don't seem to really care about the more than 100 other precious lives already lost) www.nytimes.com/2026/03/02/w...
To read something profound and deeply relevant that is not just starting at the news in horror - and to be reminded of the power of writing and of reading (which they cannot kill): www.parapraxismagazine.com/articles/whe...
Every teacher fighting against AI and the dehumanization of knowledge right now—meanwhile, the government using AI to murder people at long distance.
These things are not unrelated.
This is all I can say as well. Already children are killed.
The peace president.
Thank you to Judith Levine for taking note and not turning away.

"everyone has to get back to the office because the important thing about business is human interaction" is dying, but "white collar jobs will be replaced by AI agents within 18 months" cannot yet be born; in this interregnum a variety of morbid symptoms appear.
While we brace for airstrikes on Iran, Trump is busy filling his own pockets and bankrupting the nation.
ICE is killing American citizens in the streets and he is openly plotting to steal the midterms.
It will be another crime scene covered by the fog of war
spitting on them should be a national pastime
perhaps! But I don't think you can entirely discount that it makes a difference when the victim is a white man, especially a white man w/ a gun. Still, I'm glad it seems to be having an effect and enraged that anyone has been killed.
These are 80-90s year olds at my step father's assisted living place. Organized themselves in the snow.
The Minnesota civil resistance campaign has been remarkably successful:
- The GOP governor candidate dropped out
- Numerous DOJ officials resigned
- GOP members of Congress are speaking out; business feels pressure
- Noem has been relieved of operational responsibility
The campaign is winning.
Black man killed by ICE, Keith Porter, no one talks about it. Latino men, such as Silverio Villegas González, killed by ICE: silence. White woman killed, outrage only on left. White man killed, Republicans start to crumble. I'm glad they are crumbling. But that's what it takes.
Then there's the 40% of republicans reporting feeling "happy" about Trump and the 20% reporting feeling "enthusiasm and pride." Plenty of people are awesome. But those people suck.

Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.

lies lies lies. Lindsey Graham, only the latest. They make me so sick.
A country that blows up foreign fishing boats for no reason is one that will shoot its own citizens for no reason.
If only we had some sort of historical precedent that could help us understand what might happen when a constellation of highly militarized far right governments, organized around an angry and resentful, blood and soil version of nationalism, emerges and tries to remake the world in their image.
Murderers, criminal, thieves, liars, pillagers of the planet. The deaths of Venezuelans do not count, to them, as deaths at all. The poisoning of our earth is nothing to them. Fuck them all.

The Free Speech wing of the Free Speech party has made it so you have to upload journalism like it's an ISIS video
The University of Oklahoma has stripped the graduate student who gave a failing grade to Samantha Fulnecky of instructional duties, calling their grading in this case “arbitrary.”
This is a disgraceful capitulation by a university to those who seek to destroy it.
Hi Kenneth, If you're up for it, I'd love to converse about this possibility! Feel free to message me, or email me - email is on the website. :)
Any Spinoza experts want to be on my podcast? www.juliecarrpoet.com/return-the-key
At an @agu.org Town Hall today, @ncar-ucar.bsky.social President Antonio Busalacchi spoke to #AGU25 attendees about what's at stake if NCAR is dismantled.
One attendee asked anyone who uses NCAR research to stand up. Almost everyone in the room stood.

I can't wait for Mamdani to become mayor and all the Jews that were told to be terrified of him - by their own rabbis - find out that their rabbis lied to them.
