This makes me sick to my stomach. We got so many damn fighter jets that they're falling into the water, but we can't afford housing for students? In the "richest country on Earth"?

Old but relevant as we get into summer. This is why you don't chuck rocks off cliffs/mtns, or use the golf clubs on top of Borah (or any of the mtns that have them, I wish I could haul them all out). There are people and critters below. www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adve...

Anyone know anything about Chazak Rescue? They're behind Impact Thrift funding Chazak (took Bench Commission spot.) Often I am wary of faith based orgs, but know not all are sus (hey, nuns who raised me were social justice warriors and shaped me). I can't find any controversies. What do you know?

"Our students don’t need us to be perfect. They need us to be present. To care about their ideas. To show up as real, flawed, thinking humans—ones who know when to call in the robot helpers, and when to put them aside and just read the dang paper." lizalong.substack.com/p/chatgpt-th...

They chant 'all lives matter,' while celebrating a trans kid's death. They chant it while we fund a genocide. They chant it when kids are ripped from their parents (and vice versa) to defend whatever the hell a border is. They chant it while screaming "drill, baby, drill," while the Earth cries.

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

Twelve years (and 2.1 billion views) ago, when my brother and I decided that we could make videos that could maybe help people in their high school and college educations and then give them away for free, no one was there to tell us we were crazy, and I am very glad for that...🧵

Exactly. For those who keep saying what’s happening is ‘not like us’…it has always been how the US operates, especially to BIPOC and overseas. What you mean is: ‘this is not the democracy story I was told, and I’ve been lied to.’

The contempt that these folks have for the poor and under-privileged is galling. Yes, it is ethical to buy used books. Yes, it is ethical to borrow books from the library. Not everyone can afford to shop at Barnes & Noble, but everyone deserves the joy of reading.

1/ Thank you to all those who reached out asking abt my family. All are safe. One friend asked if tornados were always like this growing up. Yes and no. Sometimes violent, but not this often. Historic ones are now just the norm. My mom almost got fired in this day: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1974_Su...

1. Far right federal judge Matthew Kacsmaryk has just vacated all EEOC protections for gay and trans people in the work place. He says protections from "being fired" do not mean they are protected from harassment by Title VII. I cover this insane ruling here. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Been thinking about this a lot. We have such a fast news cycle and have developed societal short attention spans that we have forgotten that there are humans perishing in a prison camp that our tax dollars sent them to.

The Trump administration recently notified Klukwan's tribal library that it was canceling two grants that account for the vast majority of its budget. That left the staff no choice but to cancel all future events – and dramatically reduce their hours. (From KHNS - Haines)
