Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as β€œpulled a Target.”

They pulled a Target.

I really appreciate this TikToker with Tourette syndrome, Shay, for taking the time to educate so many of us (including me) about her disability and coprolalia in light of what happened at the BAFTAs with John Davidson when Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were on stage.

I learned a lot.

If you're thinking about the BAFTA situation and trying to navigate the intersection of Disability, Race, and systemic rather than merely individual anti-blackness, I highly recommend watching this video (part two as well), from @jumaane.bsky.social D. Williams.

Written English has barely changed in 300 years. If you can read Harry Potter, you can read Robinson Crusoe (1719).

Texas Universities Going All In On Censorship And Anti-DEI Policies The racism and disrespect are real in Texas, as the University of Texas adopted policies rooted in anti-Blackness and authoritarian control.

β€œThe people who claim kids are being indoctrinated in school are the same people who only want one narrative taught about gender, race, U.S. history…” said Colton Llenos, a UH graduate. β€œTo them, simple exposure to other forms of thinking counts as indoctrination.” πŸ”₯

Our latest mushing newsletter gives you basically a "day in the life" view of just that during the UP200.

Third American death linked to ice uncovered by Newsweek While the 23-year-old's death was reported in March 2025, it was not made clear that a federal agent fired the fatal shot.

β€œA federal agent fired shots through the driver’s side window”.

Sound familiar?

That’s exactly how Renee Nicole Good was killed.

This 23 year old lost his life and ICE’s involvement was covered up for a year.

They’re killing people and hiding the evidence.

Could Leech Facials Help Cure My Phobia of Them? I’m terrified of leeches, but desperate to stop avoiding lakes. So I called a leech therapist, learned what a leech facial actually involves, and discovered that exposure therapy isn’t always what you expect.

They're Coming for Our Daughters The conservative plan to shrink girls’ futures

The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to β€œsave America.”

The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there.

Perry: Abolish ICE? How about DHS altogether. "We have models for how to structure federal immigration oversight that doesn't rely on an unaccountable masked secret police force running rampant in our streets," David M. Perry writes.

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)

Today marks the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wadeβ€”a ruling that affirmed women’s right to have control over our own bodies.

Four years ago, a MAGA-influenced Supreme Court overturned it. Women now have fewer rights, and many have died after being denied essential reproductive healthcare.
