One of the most iconic parts of US culture, and most Americans aren't even taught the origin of the word "cowboys."
Read the whole linked thread.
Thanks for that. It was eye-opening and I love the detail in it.
pulling this reflection on white silence/fear over here, too:
Your annual reminder for parents giving their children electronic gifts tomorrow: make sure you have enough batteries, and if it runs on software, do them a solid and download those OS updates before they open the gift tomorrow. No kid wants 5 hours of software updates before they get to play
Well, in that case. Good morning!
Believe the survivors. Release the files. All of the files.
Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed?

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
Hey @chrislhayes.bsky.social. Regarding the raids in the US with federal agents, can we ask why does the Trump Admin think that the police aren't good enough and are just bypassed? Isn't the Republican party supposed to back the Blue?
Watch ICE illegally arrested Chicago Alderman Jessie Fuentes inside a hospital emergency room—simply for asking them to show a warrant for a man they detained.
