Can we nip this "Alligator Alcatraz" shit in the bud? We don't need to adopt their cutesy marketing when talking about the concentration camp in the Florida Everglades

Photographed in colour 115 years ago, I have cleaned-up this gorgeous autochrome plate by Julien Gérardin, photographed in France in 1910. It is original colour, not colourised.

It should be a legal requirement for mattresses to have handles.

The pattern we're apparently not yet tired of:

1. Trump announces dumb thing that hurts ppl
2. Trump totally caves on dumb thing
3. Entire world laughs at Trump
4. Trump loudly declares victory
5. Men who can’t spell “you’re” praise Trump’s genius

For everyone who said “We need to keep the filibuster to stop bad Republican bills!” the Republicans just casually nuked the filibuster to pass a bad bill they wanted.

Opinion | What you — yes, you — should know about interacting with ICE A legal expert explains the rights immigrants — and U.S. citizens — have when facing immigration officials.

In a world where anyone might be shipped to a foreign prison without a hearing, some advice if approached by ICE:
1. Don't say anything.
2. Don't sign anything.
3. Talk to a lawyer ASAP.

If @msnbc is going to have random physicians who have never treated Biden speculating about him, maybe they can find some to speculate about Trump’s apparent medical issues.

Opinion | Is that guy with a gun an ICE officer — or just a guy with a gun? Masked federal agents aren’t exactly Trump’s secret police. But they are hiding from accountability.

Having masked men in plainclothes pulling out firearms and detaining people introduces a lot of problems for democracy beyond the obvious ones.

Let's be clear: Republicans don't want more 'parents' at home. They want more *women* at home.

If you think this isn't about eradicating women from the public sphere, you haven't been paying attention

And when enough people let them get away with it.

Hey! Press covering Trump!

The statute that lets him impose tariffs at will? It EXPLICITLY excludes movies.

He has no authority to do this. Not just bc of an absence of authorization, but bc the law says “you CANNOT do this.”

Do NOT say “Trump has imposed movie tariffs,” bc he did not. He CANNOT.

once again: just because the clown car goes very fast does not mean it isn’t full of clowns

if high food prices under a Democratic president led the DNC to suggest people adapt by eating more tofu you would run 187 think pieces about how out of touch with Real Americans they are

Putin breaking his own truce?

Wait. Let me find my shocked face.

Men who live-action roleplay as women are men.

That is all.

You guys are rock stars and have already donated enough to hit the first goal, which will cover all of Mom’s vet bills and end-of-life care for Davy. GoFundMe automatically extended the goal amount, so anything over will help mom catch up on bills.

A top anti-abortion leader in the state says abortion patients should be prosecuted under his new bill to classify having an abortion as homicide: “Women openly boasting about abortions...those women are not victims. Nobody by nature of being a woman should be immune from prosecution.”

these same assholes wouldve called this “trump derangement syndrome” a week ago

Evergreen reminder that academic acumen is no indication of any other kind of acumen.

I've known academics whose scientific prowess left everyone in the dust - people I looked up to as a junior researcher - who were also staunch climate change deniers.

Rationality doesn't always travel.

Just the most startling collapse in basic intellectual standards. He literally campaigned on tariffs you mad obsolete bastard. You didn't need to deploy any sophisticated political analysis, just listen with your human ears.

Absolutely this. Congress’ role- what it should be and what it actually is- is being very overlooked

Senator Cory Booker has now broken the record for the longest Senate Floor speech, previously held by Strom Thurmond (24 hours 18 minutes).

Peter Capaldi's album "Sweet Illusions" is really good.

Musk’s X suspends opposition accounts in Turkey amid civil unrest Suspensions affect accounts spreading information about the widespread demonstrations.

Free speech latest.

I remember it being unpleasant & a lot less fudge-y.

Every day and in every way, Trump and his cohorts take another shit on the Constitution they have promised to revere and defend.

Chuck Schumer was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. Eventually the wheel of karma will turn again in the favor of sensible people, but God, am I tired of waiting.
