The prototype for that game is in one of those CPG gray videos no? I feel E. could invent this game

After Reconstruction, the media refused to believe that white supremacists were massacring entire towns of Black people attempting to claim local sovereignty over their own lives. It is not true that violence, even when it's "plain as day," necessarily moves public opinion.

i don’t really understand why this made me start bawling i just really love seeing people try to help each other in creative ways and that this shit is necessary

proud of my friend Colston and everybody else who took part in the flotilla and hope they are released soon and unharmed. also he was editing pieces from the boat right up until the Israelis kidnapped him 👑

Remember the great meg wolitzer novel "the wife" where the novelist pretends he was asleep when he gets the call because you look like an asshole if you're waiting up for it?

thoughts and prayers.

MoE for total sample +3 pts. Chart: Marta Biino/Semafor • Source: Middle East Understanding Policy Project/YouGov SEMAFOR

71% of Democratic voters say they'd favor a 2028 presidential candidate who has previously "voted to withhold weapons from Israel."

55% say they would prefer congressional candidates who supported the “Block the Bombs Act,” co-sponsored curriculum by just a quarter of House Democrats.

Israel killed 66 Palestinians in Gaza TODAY.

Lest we forget that other ICE supervisors, like this woman, feel emboldened enough to pose with a lollipop for the camera in between kidnapping innocent people. The SS of our time should not feel so invincible to broach human rights violations. I hope soon we all realize what we've done.

AMANPOUR: “Seriously?”

it's also, on what basis do you engage? I will work with people in my communities on concrete things even if we may have deep disagreements - that's very different from taking bad positions in the vague hope it will win people over

I think many of us would say there is a role for writers/thinkers to support social movements and ways of opposing the regime that aren't Dem. strategy but also aren't just a testimony for future generations .. .

I have the same childhood copy of the milne on my kid's shelf - they are too old but can't bear to take it off the shelf. when kiddo turned six, they made up their own rhyme of "now we are six" with more poop jokes
