I like that picture, trotting a tightrope. 😂

That’s the way I felt when I heard about the reboot of naked gun. That turned out funnier than it had any right to be.

Graphic of headline that reads, "Judge restores lawmakers’ unfettered access to ICE detention facilities. It was U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb's third time blocking or limiting DHS's efforts to prevent unannounced lawmaker visits." Full text of story linked in reply.

BLOCKED: A federal judge has ruled that lawmakers must be able to conduct congressional oversight of ICE detention facilities without being barred. We will not allow Kristi Noem to operate behind closed doors as ICE thugs kidnap immigrants from our communities.

Calling AI "slop" has been one of the most effective instances of the public rebranding a product and it pisses them off.

me too. she has such a sense of fun.

won't you celebrate with me by Lucille Clifton won't you celebrate with me what i have shaped into a kind of life? i had no model. born in babylon both nonwhite and woman what did i see to be except myself? i made it up here on this bridge between starshine and clay, my one hand holding tight my other hand; come celebrate with me that everyday something has tried to kill me and has failed.

Missed a week with my 8th graders due to the storm, so one last Black History Month poem as a bridge into Women's History Month.

This one is by Lucille Clifton, which has a line I think about often:

"come celebrate
with me that everyday
something has tried to kill me
and has failed."

No one could have played that as well as CR did in that scene

An effective crop can make a perfect picture! #SNL #HeatedRivalry

I was seven, and I thought about it all the time for years, the crushing suffocation. Thanks for the reminder : )

exactly that. It's one thing when they're coming up with "cool" names for the cyber-trucks of the world. But when we are bombing and killing people, maybe "cool" isn't what we should be going for. It's so gross.

"Epic Fury."

No one who would think up a name like this should ever be in a position of power.

Real concern. Heal well, sir.

Waking up to “Operation Epic Fury,” and turns out that the most powerful military in the world being controlled by the stupidest, most morally corrupt administration in history has horrible repercussions.

Miles Davis, Kind of Blue. John Coltrane is great on that. But also, I love The Mighty Mighty Bosstones' a Jackknife To A Swan . . . if you like skacore.

TRANS HERO SAVES DROWNING BABY

This story should be everywhere.

That's why these guys love their AI "girlfriends," who agree with every lunatic thought they have, and don't have to deal with an actual person who exists apart from them, and calls them on their ignorant nonsesne.

The timeline and strategies on stripping away rights is also very similar to what’s being done in public health. We are far enough removed from serious outbreaks and implications of measles, polio, etc that we’ve forgotten how bad they are, how desperate people were for care before vaccines.

this DS9 picture is the best thing I've ever seen.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

Columbia President with NEW details:

5 DHS agents entered a residency with no warrant.

They said they were police looking for a missing kid.
Security camera even captures them showing pictures of the "kid."

A campus officer asked for a warrant & their boss.

They ignored him & took the student.

The playbook for every "concerned" legislator is:

Invalidate trans people, and make them criminals by default, all in service of making them non-existent, erasing them from society and history.

If you work in a company, let's say a publishing house, and there's been a quiet roll back of trans inclusion and you have not stood up or blown a whistle you are complicit. There's no room for error anymore.

We can still keep our trans homies safe. But only if we fucking fight, and that means risk

All hands on deck, folks. This will effectively eliminate all books by queer authors and about queer lives, even books with secondary characters, books where the author or a character uses they/them pronouns. This bill will erase identities and harm kids. And it won't stop at public schools.

Fucking dystopia.

wow we are so fucking hot that our mere existence is sexually explicit. me walking down the street needs a big ol censor bar. i'm so sexy it should be illegal.
