That men’s figure skating was brutal :(

Great thread

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Had a dream that I was dating Pete Buttigieg — who had an evil twin! Pete was a good boyfriend, though.

consider, they picked whichever Pope would piss off Vance the most

This SNL concert is good and is definitely making me feel my age 😂

Got into the Beyoncé presale but unfortunately can’t afford $1K+ for a ticket. Add that cost to the list of crimes happening.

Opinion | Samantha Power: Killing U.S.A.I.D. Is a Win for Autocrats Everywhere The attacks on the agency are cruel and counterproductive.

“I am shocked by the gleeful assault perpetrated by our own government against U.S.A.I.D.’s programs and the public servants who work on them,” writes Samantha Power, the former head of the agency.

Elon Musk Ignites Online Speculation Over the Meaning of a Hand Gesture Speaking at a celebratory rally in Washington, Mr. Musk twice extended his arm out with his palm facing down, drawing comparisons to the Nazi salute.

15:06 Uhr Elon Musk irritiert mit Hitlergruß- ähnlicher Bewegung In der Sporthalle Capitol One, wo ein Public Viewing ausgerichtet wird, betritt Elon Musk springend und tanzend die Bühne. "So fühlt sich Siegen an", ruft er und reißt die Arme nach oben. In einer kurzen Ansprache sagt er zu jubelnden Trump-Anhängern: "Dank Ihnen ist die Zukunft der Zivilisation gesichert. Wir werden sichere Städte haben, endlich sichere Städte, sichere Grenzen, vernünftige Ausgaben, grundlegendes Zeug.“ Mit der rechten Hand macht er eine Bewegung, die an einen Hitlergruß erinnert.

Awesome. Great.

“They want you to feel powerless and to surrender and to let them trample everything and you are not going to let them. You are not giving up, and neither am I. The fact that we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything and everything we can save is worth saving. You may need to grieve or scream or take time off, but you have a role no matter what, and right now good friends and good principles are worth gathering in. Remember what you love. Remember what loves you. Remember in this tide of hate what love is. The pain you feel is because of what you love. The Wobblies used to say don't mourn, organize, but you can do both at once and you don't have to organize right away in this moment of furious mourning. You can be heartbroken or furious or both at once; you can scream in your car or on a cliff; you can also get up tomorrow and water the flowerpots and call someone who's upset and check your equipment for going onward. A lot of us are going to come under direct attack, and a lot of us are going to resist by building solidarity and sanctuary. Gather up your resources, the metaphysical ones that are heart and soul and care, as well as the practical ones. People kept the faith in the dictatorships of South America in the 1970s and 1980s, in the East Bloc countries and the USSR, women are protesting right now in Iran and people there are writing poetry. There is no alternative to persevering, and that does not require you to feel good. You can keep walking whether it's sunny or raining. Take care of yourself and remember that taking care of something else is an important part of taking care of yourself, because you are interwoven with the ten trillion things in this single garment of destiny that has been stained and torn, but is still being woven and mended and washed.”

A lot of you probably saw these words from Rebecca Solnit today, but in case you didn't, maybe you can take some inspiration from them.

I’m going back to Twitter
