Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

ok I feel completely insane asking this but like weren't we NOT blowing up rockets, like, 50 years ago. weren't we successfully sending rockets up that did not rattle apart. also weren't we like "ah yeah that was a fail" when the rocket fell apart instead of calling it a "partial success"

I have never seen any example of the left "hating" young men that doesn't distill to "refusal to coddle them/insistence on treating them like adults with agency."

This Day in Labor History: May 26, 1924. The doors of the United States closed to most immigrants as President Calvin Coolidge signed the Immigration Act of 1924. Let's talk about this horrible law and its support from organized labor and we enter into another age of extreme anti-immigration!

The murder of two Israeli Embassy staffers outside the Capital Jewish Museum in D.C. tonight is horrifying. This is what happens when antisemitic propaganda is permitted to go unaccountable. We cannot condone hateful rhetoric against the Jewish community. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/u...

No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

covid threw into high relief how many working class people are absolutely necessary to keeping society functional, and rather than that sparking a renewed commitment to an economy that rewards such workers, we've seen an elite backlash against even modest increases in their market power

I live with two baseball nerds! 😲 With encouragement from his dad, the 14yr old just spent 45mins during dinner telling me about #mookiebetts baseball statistics. Today I learned of the WAR - wins above replacement, DRS - defensive runs saved +++ I now have numbers 4 appreciating #mookie 😳🤣

Un certain sens de la précision (au masculin) ce matin sur France Culture : Guillaume Erner - Qu’est-ce que ça veut dire, néo-féminisme ? Nathalie Heinich - ça veut dire une chose très précise, ça veut dire, ce qui pour moi est un dévoiement du féminisme par communautarisme

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

Defunding science doesn’t just slow research—it shuts doors. I now have limited access to papers and can’t even run a systematic review with Scopus or Web of Science. This is how scientific inequality deepens. I’m lucky to have links to German institutions, but many brilliant colleagues here don’t.

I feel like we've been saying this forever but it's worth saying again. Book bans do not exist in a vacuum. They're not one off events. Book bans are the canary in the coal mine. They usher in an era of censorship, fascism, violent scapegoating. Authors, join the fight: @authorsabb.bsky.social!!
