DUDE! This is huge! The endless complexity of biology is mind-blowing.

Hundreds of Fake Pro-Trump Avatars Emerge on Social Media

So you understand why Trump wanted Ellison to control #TikTok and Dina McCormick to head #META. You can read and share this without a subscription.

The A.I.-generated fake influencers have surged on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook & YouTube to hook conservative voters.

BLAMING PREVENTABLE DISEASE ON IMMIGRANTS IS SOME NAZI LEVEL BULLSHIT.

When we say that RFK Jr. is a eugenicist...this is what we mean.

Audre told us.

Red States Thought They Could Stop Abortions. They Ended Up Stopping Only the Lifesaving Ones. Abortion bans are failing.

Abortion rates in red states have not decreased, aside from medically necessary ones. Pregnancy has become much more dangerous. slate.com/news-and-pol...

He is also promising people a "glorious future" where there will be "one person, one-billion" companies instead, which people will run while "sipping wine in Napa valley."
And that the job displacements are just the prices other people must pay for his/other entrepreneurship/profits.

Palantir effectively declared war against the global majority. Eugenics, genocide and racial caste are clearly at the heart of its ideological project. AI and mass surveillance are merely the weapons to materialize its project against humanity

Tech really wants to continue the racist colonialist agenda. Now they are saying it with their chest instead of pretending to want anything progressive.

I’m excited to watch Cory Booker absolutely fail to become president.

Maybe instead of complaining about the last election the Democrats should consider running candidates who people actually want to vote for? Who actually align with the electorate?

You know when you consider the alternative is fleeing to Hungary and getting paid to fluff an authoritarian dictator, reacting to your divorce by hitting on drunk secretaries at the bar at Applebees doesn’t seem so bad any more does it

Attacked

This thread. I hated teaching online and not being social but I’m glad I did my part to keep my community safe. It seriously affected my mental health. But I’d do it again to keep people safe. 😷

They are still relitigating the last election instead of currently laying the groundwork for winning the next one.

And all of the candidates who need non-white supremacist, non-ableist, non-transphobic votes are very busy bashing the marginalized & disenfranchised.

That’s how you lose again.

Academic/art friends and comrades, I’m beginning to circulate a new talk for AY 2026–27 and would be glad to bring it into conversation with departments, programs, centers, classrooms, workshops, and reading groups. Drawn from my forthcoming book, *Breathing in Common*, the talk asks what it means to sustain life in common when air itself has become a site of governance, risk, exposure, and abandonment. Thinking with contemporary art, disability justice, abolitionist medicine, and COVID-era aerosol knowledge, I trace how breath functions as shared infrastructure under empire, and how queer and trans artists of color theorize collective survival through opacity, luminosity, care, and improvisation. I’d be especially glad to connect with those working in feminist studies, queer and trans studies, critical race and ethnic studies, disability studies, medical humanities, environmental humanities, art history, visual culture, and abolitionist thought. I’m open to virtual, hybrid, and in-person invitations. For in-person events, I’m happy to participate, provided thoughtful safety precautions are in place. If you’re organizing something for the coming academic year, please feel free to DM me or email me. I’d also appreciate shares to colleagues, programs, and organizers who might be interested.p

Academic/art friends & comrades, I’m beginning to circulate a new talk for AY 2026–27 drawing on my book in progress, *BREATHING IN COMMON.* I would be glad to bring it into conversation with departments, programs, centers, classrooms, workshops, & reading groups. Please help me circulate this note!

Penis costume protester prevails in court Alabama officers said the woman's costume created a public safety threat and arrested her at an October

I'm just here for the headline

In 1933, the nation's wealthiest people (including George HW Bush's grandfather) conspired to overthrow the government and install a fascist dictator who would reverse the New Deal and return the US to the gold standard. FDR swept it under the rug in return for the conspirators' compliance.

Man, when you compare the bravery of every day Minnesotans to the overpaid cops it’s astounding

the hitlerian victims of communism foundation on twitter: USSR pin awarded to farmers for "Mastery of Cannabis Breeding". Are these your "Marxist" values??

happy 4/20

Wild to keep hearing anti-AI sentiment described as an "echo chamber" by people who pretend there's never been a coercive dogshit marketing campaign actively pissing people off about it for two years or any no-opt-out half-baked shovelware making everyone's PCs and phones worse

Ever word of this.

The Shreveport Mass Killing Isn’t Just About ‘Mental Health’ When a man shoots his wife and children, the term you are looking for is patriarchy.

"A rise in femicide is the predictable outcome in a country turning back the clock on women’s rights...These killings are the natural outcome of a country enamored with patriarchy, determined to make sure that men can dominate women."

An underrated 21st century skill is knowing what level of digital friendship you should have with somebody. Getting that Instagram request and being able to say, "no, LinkedIn mutuals is right for us." Tough when you realize belatedly that you don't actually want to know what your gym trainer thinks

It literally happened to you! How can people ignore the evidence right in front of them 🤦🏻‍♀️

The media blackout of Jared Kushner’s historic, ongoing corruption scandal As Trump's son-in-law returns to Pakistan for more talks with Iran, major news outlets are largely ignoring an egregious conflict of interest.

1. As Jared Kushner heads to Pakistan to represent the United States in critical talks with Iran, the media is ignoring a historic corruption scandal.

Kushner is serving in this role while on the payroll of the Saudi government.

Let's look at the data.

#OtD 20 Apr 1914 US troops opened fire with machine guns and set fire to tents in a camp of striking miners and their families in Ludlow, Colorado. They burned two women, 11 children and shot 13 others. None were prosecuted stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9243...

Power without accountability: The Palantir manifesto The problems with our tech philosopher kings

New, from me: Take the Palantir manifesto seriously, if not literally.
It reveals that our tech philosopher kings want public money, but without public accountability. This creates a dilemma for governments unaligned with its techno-fascist vision. 🧵

As many have already pointed out: more people would be ‘defecting’ if there were jobs for them to go to.
Also! It’s not ‘safe’ in blue states. The shit they have been doing in FL, TX, WV, KY has already started happening in NY, CA, etc. We were the canary in the coal mine and y’all didn’t listen.

Exactly!

We all understand that when a ceo ‘predicts’ cutting their staff by 20-30% it’s a hope not a prediction. They want to cut costs and increase profit. They also have seemingly no awareness that their company too will fail if there are no customers because no one has a job.
