I just sent $20 to Ian to help this family. I'd like you to chip in a few bucks if you can too.

Public pressure means something. Primaries can change policies. In NY-10, Dan Goldman has been running ads for months.
Primaried from his left by @bradlander.bsky.social, Goldman’s ads have gone from β€œAgents should have to carry ID” in January, to big bold graphics this month that say β€œAbolish ICE.”

The Public Scholar A Practical Handbook

β€œthe teaching voice, rather than the scholarship voice, is the best analogy to public writing. And that’s not about dumbing down or saying things that aren’t true; it’s about having a highly developed sense of audience and context” - @lollardfish.bsky.social www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/...

Celts didn’t play brown and queta (who has been exceptional at center). Didn’t matter. Not sure I’ve seen a worse team play than tonight’s bucks.

99-69 Celtics over Bucks with a few min left. Kinda rough welcome back for Giannis.

How many Americans have to get Allahu Akbar’ed before we realize Islam is a problem?

Congressman Brandon Gill @RepBrandonGill How many Americans have to get Allahu Akbar’ed before we realize Islam is a problem?

The way sitting politicians can say this stuff about Muslims while facing zero consequences is an indication of just how entrenched Islamophobia still is in our institutions and culture.

Sent the link for standwithminnesota.com to my friend Emily who just helped a family make rent.

She said via text: "Maybe the best I've ever felt giving money, I love how directly this can help people."
