lol I also know it’s impossible to write a concise headline. What this tells me is we need a new catchy word for “men who are anxious about losing privilege”

Yes but even “frustration with equality” is too polite as though they are blameless. More like “men desperately clinging to the unearned privilege they enjoy under patriarchy and white supremacy”

Hahahahaha

This is so cool!

We’re not used to politicians caring and doing good things 🙃

Many years ago I worked in healthcare and my company did a huge campaign called Everybody Walk. The CEO recorded a short video talking about not only the profound health benefits of walking but that it reconnected him to his community. He got emotional and said “walking gave my city back to me.”

Oh look what time it is

10 years ago I went to Taiwan 3x in 5 months as my dad’s health declined. I was wrestling w/ my grief at the same time we lost beloved artists & our country felt headed in the wrong direction. This essay is a time capsule from 2016 & Bowie was my soundtrack www.themanifeststation.net/2016/10/14/d...

Will probably delete this later but it made me cackle

I’m relieved Trump did not destroy an entire civilization last night, but his unhinged threat and illegal war make it clear he is unfit to serve as president.

Trump needs to be removed from office. And we must oppose his administration’s new $1.5 trillion budget proposal for more war.

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)

More context on this #Artemis II image:

* This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right

* The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon:

People who actually write know that writing is inseparable from thinking. AI doesn’t think so its output isn’t writing… AI generates content that *sounds like writing* and sadly most people don’t know the difference 😑

AI doesn’t write; it generates content that *sounds like writing* and most people don’t know the difference 😑

I don't need a summary of what's available online, in biographies, or even in my own notes. I need to comb through and find the great details, decide what interests ME. No, it's not efficient. It's slow and painstaking. But I don't believe in efficiency as an ultimate good, especially in writing. /

Exactly—solves a problem *for them* but not for us, and yet they will do anything to convince us we need it.

Books should take forever to write. They should torture you your entire life and the things you could have said slightly better should haunt you forever. This is what art is for, transferring the discomfort of being human into something relatable to the other humans

A beautiful day in SF #NoKings

The No Kings protest in Portland has begun.

Minnesota sign: "So tired of living in an Onion article."

Virginia sign: "So tired of living in an Onion article."

Austin, Texas sign: Tired of living in an Onion article.

The Onion Should Not = Reality sign

From Texas to Virginia to Minneapolis, people at No Kings protests agree: It is probably not great news that The Onion is doing so well right now.

No Kings in Boston!!

Walz: The president said it's a bunch of radicals. You're damn right we've been radicalized. Radicalized by compassion, radicalized by decency, radicalized by due process, radicalized by democracy.

if nothing else, there is something to be said for spending time outside in the sun with thousands of people who share your anger at the state of things

Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings
