Abolish ICE is not an absurdity statement. ICE was created in 2003 as a response to 9/11 - we do not need it. We already established that following orders isn't an excuse.

Nobody who behaves this way can possibly be intending to let the opposition ever again have their hands on the levers of power.

There’s a word for a person and a movement who has that attitude toward the opposition.

Trump is the author of this hell but he writex it with tools preserved, expanded, and ultimately sustained by first Obama and later Biden. Detaining a legal permanent resident for campus protest, under the flimsy pretense of aiding terror, can only be done with tools Bush built & Obama sustained.

"I've long wondered where my tax dollars are going but haven’t bothered to do the five minutes of research it would take to learn that all that information is already meticulously documented and tracked in numerous publicly available reports and websites."

Major media have found a soft and tidy term for Republican attempts to steal elections: “reversal.”
WaPo says Trump engaged in “election-reversal efforts” in the Jan. 6 coup attempt. NYT says when NC Republicans try to nullify 60K votes to steal a court seat, they just want to “reverse” their loss.

This advice is important now, and will be even more important in two weeks, when the next administration is going to flood the zone with horribleness, with the intent of overwhelming everyone into compliance. Pick your battles and keep your focus. Trust others are doing the same elsewhere.

The Arctic Plague Ship That Disabled A Best Selling Author In August more than one hundred writers, musicians and artists converged on Longyearbyen, the world’s northernmost town, before setting sail around Svalbard, a group of islands in the Arctic circle.

In August 100 writers and artists set sail on a trip to the Arctic circle. The ship turned into a hot bed of covid. Over half of passengers contracted the virus, including the best selling author Isabel Kaplan, who now has serious long covid. I spoke to her www.donotpanic.news/p/the-arctic...

Look bringing back polio sounds bad. But it’s a small price to pay to get rid of pronouns in email signatures and black women in star wars.

Folks, *please* take this chance to materially support Palestinian work + voices + dreams. Dreams on a Pillow could not be more necessary. I'm so moved by Rasheed's creativity, perseverance, ingenuity. This industry and this world don't deserve him, but I'm so grateful that he's here with us 💪🍉

Opinion | There Is No Way to Live a Life Without Regret The panic over transgender children is driven by the fear that they’ll regret transitioning. But freedom to make mistakes is core to being human.

this beautiful, nuanced, deeply clarifying essay by @polgreen.bsky.social on gender, selfhood, regret, choices, what makes a life and what gives it meaning made me weep this morning. I can’t recommend enough you stop what you’re doing and read the whole thing. gift link here:

Univision, the Spanish-language news giant, shifts its approach to Trump The presence of corporate executives at Mar a Lago raises alarm among Democrats who are used to Latino media criticism of the former president’s policies.

If I'm the editor on the Media News' desk, I have "what's going on at Univision" as the number one story right now.

reading between the lines of this memo, traffic was fine, production was fine, the business side was too lazy to sell ads for a women's site

A man fires an arrow at Elon musk’s dumb cybertruck

main thing I want in a vehicle? hmm well it has to deflect arrows, that’s job 1, almost goes without saying; other than that I think it would be good if it could resemble an industrial oven hood as much as possible, and …. that’s about it

An Appropriate Anger On the Christian fascists who want the world to end in fire and their seamless alignment with a system that serves profit and consumes people

All people have an intrinsic and indestructible worth that cannot be measured.

That’s not true of everything. If a car stops functioning properly, it’s no longer as valuable as it was when it was functioning properly.

Not so with people.
