are we going to settle for this in perpetuity? do you want to do this ad nauseum, ad infinitum? is this the limit of our collective political imagination, of what we want for ourselves and our neighbors and our children and our planet? is this what you want? is it? THIS?

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

Gathering a fully remote office together once a year is lovely and worthwhile and also my social battery is officially dead and in need of a week+ of recharging time.

If judges can refuse to officiate gay weddings, gay defendants should be able to refuse to be heard by those judges. If they can’t be compelled to perform the most heteronormative of functions, why would anyone believe they are capable of putting their biases aside for something with higher stakes?

Early mornings in our house are always amusing.

It's never a bad time to bring up that we

a b s o l u t e l y

have the resources and ability to provide housing, food, clothing, healthcare, and education to everyone at no direct cost to the individual; and we just choose not to do it.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

If you're in Illinois and facing criminal charges from protesting ICE, or if you were attacked by ICE or law enforcement supporting them, I might be able to represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

Congrats, Maria! Such a gorgeous cover, too.

Human rights defender Greta Thunberg: "I am not scared of Israel, I am scared of a world that has seemingly lost all sense of humanity. What we are doing here is trying to show there is some humanity left. That there are still people willing to step up when all other means fail." #3E

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide!

It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.

It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!

So all the fascists are getting “raptured” today? Yes, please.

The ebike is absolute peak urban transportation. I can wear normal clothes, carry plenty of stuff, make it up hills with ease, and I even beat the bus on the way home today.

If you haven’t, there are only three days remaining to submit a comment on the planned rescission of the roadless rule in the National Forests. Losing this means a loss of biodiversity, wilderness areas, and recreation.

Even though I love the Vuelta, I love these protests more. Seeing so many people turn out in Madrid in solidarity with the people of Palestine is beautiful.

People are complaining that the Vuelta isn’t the time or place for protesting Israel’s genocide of Palestinians. But every time is the right time to oppose genocide. Every place is the right place. So much respect for the people of Madrid!

Exactly. The pearl-clutching has felt particularly pointed and obscene. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians dead, Spain announced sanctions again Israel, IPT shouldn’t be there, full stop, but HOW DARE THESE PROTESTERS DISRUPT A BIKE RACE. The horror!

I’m beyond ready for Roll to retire. #Vuelta

We’ve been cheering every protest, every Palestinian flag, every line of chalk. What’s so clear: The US announcers are ill-equipped to comment on anything to do with people opposing genocide & related sports washing—Bob Roll especially. Utterly tone deaf comments reeking of white privilege all tour.

A screenshot of the shared article that states that Florida Republican Brian Mask [House of Representatives] is a former soldier of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF)—the very entity bombing and sniping and kidnapping, torturing, and murdering Palestinians in Gaza [all documented, horrifying realities]. The screenshot also links to a previous statement that Mask made that babies are “not innocent Palestinian civilians.” Last but not least, the screenshot includes text about how the bill has little reason to exist, save for allowing Marco Rubio unilateral power to strip passports/citizenship of people without them actually having been convicted or even charged of a crime.

This is definitely someone who should be in the House of Representatives, def. someone who should be able to introduce a bill that would essentially qualify anyone voicing their support of Palestinians/their opposition of the Israeli military murdering hundreds of thousands of them as “terrorists.”

Hi, this is (so much) fascism.

He was an advocate of violence against his political opponents and took positions like “the civil rights act should be repealed,” “the Jews are replacing white people,” and “Ukraine is an evil country and we should let them die.” Kirk’s entire career played a nontrivial role in getting us here.

The conversation we’re not ready to have yet is that having empathy for a white supremacist is part of what upholds white supremacy.

And by that measure alone, it fails to be empathy at all.

“So what if he disagreed with you, he didn’t deserve to die”

But he thought I did.

This isn’t disagreement. It’s someone who was not only opposed to my existence but was called a good and faithful servant by the church for doing it.

I don’t have to mourn that. And asking me to is violence too.

It's honestly so infuriating to read comments like, "The protesters have a point, but do they have to be so disruptive?"

You either think the cause of protesting genocide is worthwhile or you don't. Like, I'm sorry you wanted Tom Pidcock to win, but there's a bigger fight here.

Sylvain Adams is *literally* using the world's biggest bike races to try and launder Israel's image. If people can't protest during those races when *can* they protest?

Sports *are* political, especially when we have a peloton full of corporations and state-sponsored teams doing sportswashing. Maybe read what Sylvain Adams has said about his goals for Israel-Premier Tech
