If you are surprise Pikachu that the OG Nazis learned a lot of their shitty shitty ideology and methods from the United States, you need to start cracking books.

Genuinely excellent to see journalists on major media platforms calling this out. Here’s one summary of years of work looking at how police tactics can kick off the violence they are officially there to prevent:

Texas is seeking to improve higher education by checks notes creating a HUAC-style ombudsmen to ensure professors don't indoctrinate students and at the same time require checks notes again that professors only work from 8-5, M-F, assuring a MASSIVE hourly wage increase. #SB37 #SB2615

Bad news from TX AAUP: "Tx SB37 passed the House Committee on Higher Ed along party lines by a 6-5 vote during yesterday evening's business meeting. The committee clerk will file a report on SB37 & then it will head to the House Calendars Committee to be scheduled for a debate & vote by the House."

Unfortunately SB 37 was voted out of committee last night (under very shady circumstances). However all is not lost. Texas faculty contact your House reps and tell them No on SB37! @texasaaup.bsky.social @aaup.bsky.social @utaustinaaup.bsky.social

Ending every post with "Thank you for your attention to this matter!" is one of those small but infinitely aggravating things, like someone who sucks their teeth loudly. Like it's not a big deal, but, goddamn, it just sends me into an incoherent rage.

A budget is a moral document. Trump and the Republicans are set to make ICE the highest funded federal as enforcement agency ever. $12 BILLION to lock people up while his Core Civic buddies get rich. Twisted.

I hope future history textbooks record this as the tipping point on public sentiment against the Trump regime

My Great Aunt Georgia lived in Seattle at the time of the Mt. St. Helens eruption. She sent everyone in the family little jars of ash. Been on every desk I’ve had since then wherever I’ve gone.

I am continually astounded at how much of our federal governing laws were always based on a gentleman's agreement and the public keeping POTUS in check.

This is such a garbage poll. It doesn't get into what Trump has specifically done to trans people. apnews.com/article/tran...

Dixy did not. In fact, she sang a very different tune ten years later. Additionally, she says that Truman "made it a game" to see if people could go around roadblocks. That's unequivocally false. She hated the press as Governor; honestly, that's where her real grievance lies—real jagoff behavior.

The Senate plans to vote on the SAVE Act this Thursday. This is a profoundly regressive act that will disenfranchise millions of Americans, included married women, trans folks, and anyone without a passport. Please review the details here and then call your Senator and demand they vote no.
