*drowning in a flood because an explosion on the moon has obliterated 10 miles of coastline*: I bet Deutsche Bank feels real silly now.

Not sure if this is the case but holy shit was it the case with Jan 6 when EVERYONE agreed it was one of the worst things Ever and then Dems… let millions of people just lose interest in a matter of weeks

Everyone here has had to decide what they will and won’t do. Will you take someone in your house? Will you bring them groceries? Will you patrol streets with a whistle? Will you do some other kind of work, of which there are many. And how many of these types.

I wrote about these warehouses in the context of Friday's Fifth Circuit mandatory-detention ruling over the weekend here: www.lawdork.com/p/fifth-circ...

the confirmation of contemporary transphobia as a political movement has been the brainchild of a boys club made up of some of the most disgusting monsters in recent memory to explicitly keep trans women disenfranchised so as to subjugate and exploit us for their own sexual gain is like

a lot, dawg

Sense making, interdisciplinary, quantitative, and qualitative research , future studies , design, systems

Are all part of the world . They became very elite studies

And it’s terrible because they are integral in us interacting

Observation: When grief makes us want to recreate the dead, this often drives us to creative impulses. When your mom dies, you might remember her by painting a portrait of her, or writing down your favorite memories of her, or planting a garden because she loved gardening.

Anne Frank likely died in a typhus epidemic that spread through the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp

History rhymes, it rhymes

Close the camps, set fire to the prisons

I really want people to check in with the organizations that have been pushing back on surveillance for 10+ years.

Just to be blunt, there are a lot of folks who realized yesterday that surveillance is bad and many are suggesting well-intentioned but misguided strategies for fighting it

talk to us

no fan of jeffries, but holy shit is this article misleading. in the press briefing he calls for "a prohibition that DHS cannot *detain* or deport American citizens", and his focus throughout the briefing is on the detainment part

Opposition party doing so good that they’re gonna pass a law that exists already and tell us it’s a win 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Um. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social it's already against the law to deport American citizens. What are we even doing here?

Update: The Trans bathroom bounty hunter bill in Kansas has just passed the Kansas House.

They have rushed it to the Senate for passage.

If it passes, the most extreme anti-trans bill in the nation is about to be sent to the Governor's desk.

Live here.

this story quotes:

- A trump ambassador
- A museum run by Trump appointees
- Stop Antisemitism, an organization funded by right-wing donors

... aaannnnddd that's it! Not a single scholar of the Holocaust. Not anyone unaffiliated with Walz' political opponents.

Hey can we also pause and unpack what “quotas” means

gelliottmorris.com: New piece: Most Trump voters did not "vote to deport moms." They voted bc inflation was high under Biden, to deport criminals, or something else. Many do not support Trump's policies. Welcoming those voters back into the tent is key to future Dem victory.

the thing about white liberal Americans is that they'll argue to accept bigots into their tent before accepting the bigots' targets.

the targets that have been on the same side as white liberals from the jump.

I said what I said about the silly people who say, "But there has to be a path back for MAGA folk!🤡" There has always been a path back. It's never been an issue at all. Many anti-MAGA folk spent some part of their life on the hateful side.

But the path back involves repair. Undoing harm. Like this.

bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers

On one side: a thick stack of all the endless paperwork necessary for a disabled person to fill out over a year to get housing, food, meds, etc

On the other side: a few pages of paperwork necessary for MAiD.

As long as no one works to reduce the former to zero, the latter will *always* be eugenics

Sydette does so much for this world, toss into this hat if you can please.

She's amazing.

Marlon and Dorey figure skaters from Finding Nemo on Ice in front a coral reef prop. The costumers have the have the smiling characters faces jutting out of the skater toros with the rest of the fish coming out of their backs. The costumes are full body including the skaters faces. By most accounts it’s absurd looking.

I designed and 3d printed spinner rims for my daughter’s stroller with a custom “dub” x uppababy logo.

Movie poster for 1970s animated film Fantastic Planet, featuring a giant blue humanoid fish creature holding an shirtless adolescent boy in the palm of their hand.

The Fantastic Planet was buried in my brain when I was 8, and then seeing a clip of it in The Cell sent me on a journey.

Apparently an irresponsible NYT movie review in the 1970s recommended adults bring their young children to see this movie.
