They wanted to address "toxic stress" in students...so they are closing their school and abandoning students. Students are not experiments. #edusky

Reading the story about the woman in Georgia who is brain dead and on a vent but not allowed to die with dignity because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she was declared brain dead. Even in death, our bodies are not our own. State-owned property.

"And then I see people [on social media] say, ‘Why didn’t they come out [with these allegations] immediately?’ It’s because people like you don’t believe them!” 🎯🎯🎯

Black people and women are more likely to select into public sector work partly b/c of the stability, but also (and related) b/c of stronger protections against discrimination built into public personnel policies. The massive federal cuts and instability will affect them disproportionately.

When we call for politicians to "do something," this is what we mean. Not speeches or op-eds or campaign rallies, but using every tool available to disrupt the advance of fascism.

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

On this Good Friday- a reminder. Most evangelicals will be moved to tears as they remember a humble man who gave his life for others. Yet- they VOTED FOR AND STILL DEFEND this piece of shit who mocked a man with a disability. Their Easter celebrations are tributes to their hypocrisy.

Sorry, America. We can pay cancer research teams or we can pay to fly Trump and his entourage to a UFC fight in Miami. We can’t afford both.

"Either he (Jesus) I didn’t care about the poor, the marginalized and the oppressed — in which case we’ve built our religion on a hollow figure. Or he did care, deeply, and we’ve chosen to ignore that part because it challenges our comfort, our politics and our priorities."

The lesson for universities is you may as well fight back. You'll lose the money either way. The only question is whether you keep your dignity.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

Telling how Fetterman's analysis of 2024 is nothing more than the crude identity politics practiced only by the right. Progressives got a Black woman who wasn't in her 80s, ergo, "what they wanted." Nevermind her positions, her campaign, or what progressives said about both; identity is everything.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”

The thing about Trump’s team is that we learn how many morally bankrupt, marginally intelligent, men of utterly average substance have walked among us, seemingly successful, running money-making firms, CEOs and venture capitalists - even the richest man in the world. They have been unmasked.

I know using alt-text for images isn't yet habit for a lot of refugees from Xitter. I get it. But ESPECIALLY when sharing anything related to political activism, please use it. Disabled people, including blind folks or those w/ low vision, are targets right now. They must be a part of your activism.
