This is extraordinary. I will miss Colbert so much, but he is going out blazing.

“The entire operation is becoming slower and more resource-intensive. There is good reason to believe that more immigrants are with their families tonight because of ICE Watch.”

No more, no more.

ICE has been cracking down hard across the vast expanse of the greater Chicago area, and I wrote a little bit about what you need to understand about what it’s like here now. Plus, I compiled some resources for locals to get alerts and whistles. dansinker.com/posts/202…

Federal Action Reporting Form Federal Action Reporting Form Please use this form to share information regarding federal government action in New York state. Filing a complaint does not start

NY AG has created portal to report/upload footage of crimes committed by the violent bigoted morons of ICE. Every state AG should do this. Fuck ICE & any who offer them even tangential support or ignore their rancid, hateful, cowardly crimes. Repost! ag.ny.gov/federal-acti...

Hell is empty,
And all the devils are here.

The same dudes who fetishize the supposed lost strength and competence of their forefathers want computers to write their emails for them.

Inconvenient truths about the fires burning in Los Angeles from two fire experts For years, renowned fire experts Jack Cohen and Stephen Pyne have tried to shift the conversation on fire prevention strategies. This week’s destruction, they say, could have been minimized.

Some of my LA friends have told me that the problem is climate change, and it is. It’s January for fucks sake. But that doesn’t mean we have to solve climate change to better control fire. If we wait for that, cities will keep burning. There are ways to mitigate risk. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

Wow, thanks Karen!

I have a brilliant plan, all I need is:
- the copyright to everything
- all the money in the world

Donald Trump is now (1) below 50% popular vote and (2) has a margin of popular vote victory roughly HALF of Hillary's victory in 2016. They believe the left has to lay down and shut up because of this "landslide" victory.

Trader Joe’s United said it’s *not* calling for a customer boycott at this time in response to the company arguing the NLRB is unconstitutional. But they *are* asking people to sign a customer strike pledge if they call for a boycott in the future.

Opinion | Why Aren’t More People Getting Married? Ask Women What Dating Is Like. Harping on people to get married from up in the ivory tower fails to engage with reality of life in the dating trenches.

FINALLY A DISPATCH FROM REALITY

"harping on people to get married from high up in the ivory tower fails to engage with the reality on the ground that heterosexual women from many walks of life confront: that is, the state of men today."

Another bad night for pundits. Perhaps they’re asking the wrong questions. Asking “is Biden too old? is perfectly acceptable in journalism. Asking “do you think the Republican party is trying to overthrow democracy so religious creeps can control your life and your body?” is, for some reason, not.

Clinics have months-long wait times. Hormones cost thousands of dollars. Puberty blockers have been prescribed to cis kids for decades. Fewer than 300 kids get top surgeries per year; single digits get bottom surgeries.
