It's been ages since I saw Jaws, but IIRC, it's about a looming environmental danger that's an immediate threat to human life. Scientists identify it quickly and beg the government to take action, but the government opts to ignore it in favor of profit. Is that right?

I forgot about this song. It is SO good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kVS...

🚨 ICYMI 🚨 Spent a year investigating a Christian Nationalist organization operating in my state! Their aim is to control every library in the state of Louisiana. I uncovered their: - tactics - origins - donors - Collusion with state lawmakers And more. Read and share below!

Exactly! Free them all. Not just those who are high profile. Do right by everyone.

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

I am breathing. I am breathing. I am breathing. I am breathing the crystal air.

Well, damn.

This is a very important thread ⬇️

Word is that DC folks have been diverted to Philly, and I've already been passed by full trolleys even though it's raining. So welcome to the country's OG capital! It's gonna be big! #NoKings

Happy No Kings Day, US friends. No kings, no church law, and fuck white nationalism.

They're now admitting that four ICE detainees escaped from Delaney Hall, the detention center in Newark, as just a few dozen protesters seemingly impeded the manhunt with a blockade of the gates. This can keep happening.

Here it fucking comes.

If you see the Newark escapees, no you didn't.

Sorry if original post wasn’t entirely clear: ICE had an accountability policy for handling warrantless arrests and now they do not.

HAPPENING NOW: House Democrats march to Senate Majority Leader John Thune’s office to demand answers as to what will be done in response to what happened to Alex Padilla today (Video: Annie Grayer)

So, like. I'm not there. And obviously I'm not doing anything, because I'm safe in Europe. But... no one is screaming "FALSE ARREST! FALSE ARREST!" and forming human chains? No one is pulling masks down or throwing paint? No one is blocking ICE vans with their cars or pouring sugar into gas tanks?

In case you weren't aware, the greater LA metropolitan area is the size of Portugal and contains 80% more people. They cannot constitutionally do this, but also, they cannot physically do this.

The deadliest hurricane recorded in US history was the one that hit Galveston, Texas in 1900. It's believed to have killed between 6,000 and 12,000 people (probably around 8,000). There is a REASON why the US spends $$ on storm tracking and disaster relief. science.howstuffworks.com/nature/natur...

THEY'RE BRINGING BACK DIVERS! ALL MY HISTORICAL ENGLISH-LANGUAGE TEXTS READERS FRIENDS GET HYPED

"Then they came for the trade unionists"

All my solidarity with the protesters preventing ICE gestapo thugs from dragging away their neighbours. We can always benefit from a reminder that ordinary people have the power to resist

Goodnight from Coldwell St. Mary, where the traditional Ale & Cake festival has once again degenerated into a village wide fistfight involving men wearing antlers. Goodnight from Summer Goodchild, sleepwalking Sage Lane in Moss Maiden company. Goodnight from Hookland.

Very cool and good things happening in the Republic this weekend
