On this Chairteenth, we celebrate the good folks of Montgomery, especially our guy AquaMayne. Special shout out to the folks who, within 72 hours, recreated this in their apartment complex. A COMMUNITY!! 💀

Hey congrats to everyone who took the soft anti-vaccine stance of “mRNA vaccines aren’t 100% effective and aren’t useful against future variants so the mRNA vaccines aren’t good, we need to mask forever”, your stance has been noted by RFK Jr. to kill mRNA technology in America.

’We couldn’t live without it’: the UCSC Genome Browser turns 25 After a quarter of a century, the website remains an essential tool for navigating the genome and understanding its structure, function and clinical impact.

The UCSC genome browser team are a great lot and it’s nice to see them celebrated in this article. There are a couple of quotes from me in there, although Michael picked my more reserved comments - I recall gushing quite a lot more about magnificent genomics hippies

Happy Juneteenth

well at least this site still works… still hasn’t captured the zeit unfortunately but the other always seems moments away from collapsing

Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

No war with Iran, fuck Israel!

🧵 We just released our 2022 - 2025 Main Political Report: our official organizational assessment of the key social, political, and economic developments of the past 3 years. Here are 6 key takeaways:

tickled that the new subject of the right wing is the failed white athlete. parents spend tens of thousands on private training, equipment, schools of choice, etc only to come out decisively middling. sports didn’t work, now you must hang with dorks like Charlie Kirk for a living

Miller is best understood as a would-be school shooter who had the discipline to bide his time

Up with the people of LA, down with Trump’s fascist regime.

Among many problems of the left, the wholesale adoption of Canva-core infographics and flattened Corporate Memphis aesthetics by social justice organizations represents capitulation to hegemony. Bland, bloodless design, "for all" but nobody in particular, representing no threat to the oppressor.

The tick that causes Lyme can also spread babesiosis — and researchers fear doctors in the mid-Atlantic don't know about it.

Mohsen was just released by the federal judge in VT!!

About 30 minutes afterwards, some different CPB cops came and told us it was ok to film (duh), had to tell the ICE cops in the building the same. Local news came out to film while all this was happening lol

fortunate to have one but a shorty AKSU would complete me

They seem real scared of being watched, especially by “men of fighting age”

Today’s Chartbook features the coming trade crisis. The US Commerce Dept. plans for tariffs of up to 3,521% on imports of solar panels from four South East Asian countries just one year after several major solar equipment producers asked the Biden administration to protect their US operations.

Local organizer said they get nervous when it isn’t just old church folks out there doing this. Honestly piggo seemed more nervous about me than other way around when he threatened. So, be sure to do your part for this kind of thing, especially if you are privileged. They are scared of free people.

Went to support local immigrant rights group monitoring immigration office, was threatened with arrest from an ICE agent… Accused me of filming personnel (I wasn’t) and said they were concerned that posting footage on social media could lead to violence. Told me to “stay off the property” or else 🙄

Kinda insane and shows how afraid the networks are of upsetting this administration that a guy who killed 7 people and wounded 48 with “47” literally tattooed on his face has all but been forgotten like there’s still not a very serious threat emanating from every pore of this pathetic cult

“The reason we’re here is because the government of the United States wants you to leave the United States,” Judge Ubaid ul-Haq, presiding from a courtroom on Varick Street, told a group of about a dozen children on a recent morning on Webex. “It’s my job to figure out if you have to leave,” ul-Haq continued. “It’s also my job to figure out if you should stay.” The parties included a 7-year-old boy, wearing a shirt emblazoned with a pizza cartoon, who spun a toy windmill while the judge spoke. There was an 8-year-old girl and her 4-year-old sister, in a tie-dye shirt, who squeezed a pink plushy toy and stuffed it into her sleeve. None of the children were accompanied by parents or attorneys, only shelter workers who helped them log on to the hearing.

Children as young as *four* are being put in the position of representing themselves without lawyers/parents present in front of immigration judges in cases that will determine whether they are deported.
