Excellent read and deep dive on these subjects!

Hmmm

Not my favorite style of #pizza bc I'm not sure I always need my mouth ground down to a nub by razor sharp shards of corn meal but this was better than I remembered and much better than some of the other late night spots in this area (& with fewer incredibly inebriated patrons)

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

Do not let anyone play games with you.

*or comment or argument you engage in, etc. You decide. Seriously, we are going to get steamrolled if we're mostly just resharing the same sh*t and pushing reaction buttons. The people on the front lines of all this backwards bullsh*t are already getting crushed.

Countless emails asking how Americans can directly aid Ukrainian soldiers. Here’s an easy answer:

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

I saw them in Tallahassee the day after the show on this flyer. We mostly went to see Breeders but I am SO glad we went and stayed for the whole show.

Something that isn't bad news for a change. Found the one on the left on the street and the other one on #Etsy

"Nothing is inevitable."

The Logic of Destruction And how to resist it

This is a great read that goes beyond the most breathtaking awfulness of the day to provide analysis and action.

Pictured here is a self portrait in which the artist has depicted himself as a cyclist who apparently encountered a pinecone while riding his bicycle. Lines indicating motion suggest that the cyclist is in the early stages of a spectacular wipeout. One could surmise that there is some metaphor implied in the illustration in that 1) the cyclist isn't wearing a helmet, which is stupid and 2) it was completed in January 2025, or as many people are calling it "Year of the Pinecone."

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

ICE agents rarely have judicial warrants, so they need consent.
They use ruses to gain entry to homes without judicial warrants.
One common ruse is where ICE agents pretend to be local law enforcement.
