Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Elon Musk is perpetrating a digital and financial coup. This is not hyperbole. This is not euphemism. This is what has happened. 🧵

This amounts to the most significant data leak in cyber history. Private individuals in the data business now have access to your Social Security information. This violates privacy laws in every state. Hopefully, state AGs will file suit & pursue criminal charges. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

Each of the VLA’s 28 antennas is an 82-foot dish w/ 8 receivers tucked inside. The wider an array is, the bigger its eye is, and the more detail it can see out in space. The “Y” shape provides 3 long arms, w/ 9 telescopes each. They lengthens each leg from 2/3 of a mile to 23 miles every 16 months.

This headline stack is one for the time capsule. First, analyzing Harris's message discipline, which is common to normie politicians, as if it's uniquely revealing and shifty. Second, framing Trump's openly racist, completely dishonest stump rhetoric as if it's quirky and full of subtle meaning.

the *childish* thing to do is assume the oil industry will invent a magic button. the *pragmatic* thing to do is to assume that the companies and political actors who have fought tooth and nail against solutions are not going to suddenly be helpful in solving the problem.

Some evil Republicans (but I repeat myself) are still capable of recognizing that electing Trump Round Two is equivalent to handing the national car keys to a drunk driver on the brink of the Grand Canyon
