Our own government is now using our own military against our own people! There is NO NEED for this and it isn't legal - this is a show of agression and intimidation by Trump against US citizens. PAY ATTENTION to what is going on right now.

immigrants belong in our community. ICE doesn't.

I think nuance and respectful disagreement can be found on a lot of issues, but ICE isn't one of them. Fuck ICE. I'm rooting for their abject failure and personal misery. May the people of Los Angeles send these discount gestapo hacks packing.

Years of NC State fandom has trained me for today: the correct answer for "are you rooting for Duke or UNC" is "I'm rooting for the roof to fall in".

The War and Treaty. It was one of those shows where you come out saying "okay, it was great but OMG THAT OPENING ACT". Grabbed front row seats the next time they came through town as the main ticket.

As much as they've gutted the US Government, I'm concerned about how long it'll take us to replenish the National Strategic Popcorn Reserve after today.

It’s the happiest day of Elon Musk’s life because he finally posted something people actually want to read

I feel like Musk could really blow MAGA's collective minds just by continuing to tweet out facts the rest of us have known for years but never penetrated their media bubble.

Oh, I’m sorry. Did your rational and logical economic system not account for what if two terminally online men had a falling out?

Who knew that the thinnest-skinned, money-hoarding, drug-addled, malignantly-narcissistic, terminally-online, casually-fascist, profoundly-incurious frail fraudster dipshit philanderers couldn’t stay BFFs forever??

this is a day for those of us who have spent the last six months terminally online. this is for us and honestly, we deserve it.

I think the fetishization of “information” and the promise of limitless and instantaneous access to it go a long way towards explaining how people can regard themselves as near-experts without having the slightest idea how anything actually works or the slightest interest in taking time to find out

Lyft driver picked me up from UNC, turned out he was a medicinal chemistry post-doc in a building near mine, until his grant got cut last month. Worked on novel antivirals.

hey here's something I would love us all to do like RIGHT NOW: find out if your local library is doing any kind of pride programming or display, and if they are, email them to say thank you and why it matters to you. whether or not you're queer. especially if you're in an area where it's fraught

Look, I’m a college lecturer—ie non-tenured faculty, with a renewable contract & “robust performance reviews.” I rely on the university continuing to hire people like me. But YOU DON’T WANT ME TO BE THE NORM—not if you want higher education to matter in any real way

It’s weird that RFK types will invent hundreds of conspiracy theories but rarely are like “Americans would be healthier if we didn’t have to drive everywhere and could walk”. That’s the wild thinking you can’t divulge, walking, not that Bigfoot is behind it all.

In an excellent AP story about Trump’s public health disaster, the name “Trump” doesn’t appear until the 2nd sentence of the 4th paragraph, and it shows up just once in the first 20 paragraphs. Does this let Trump off the hook? No, but perhaps it avoids triggering MAGA’s “fake news” response.

Jonathan Joss (Comanche, White Mountain Apache) did not simply die from a gunshot. He was murdered in a homophobic, racist hate crime by his former neighbors. He died saving his partners life. Honor his legacy-- both queerness and Indigeneity are inextricable to why he was targeted.

I think at some point we have to stop indulging the fiction that conservatism is a legitimate political tendency and isn't simply a grievance cult for those who value the ability to enact cruelty over their literal basic needs.

That’s the thing I love: That Silicon Valley is full of people who “do nothing,” so they fire all the middle managers, who they later discover were doing a ton of things, and now company productivity is in the toilet I have no idea how I’d even know that

We just got an email that Hopkins is freezing salaries, hiring, and some construction projects. In addition to the 800 million USAID we lost, we’ve had another 50 million in grants canceled so far. And a 2/3 year over year decline in funded grants despite an increase in submissions

These families are emptying their life savings and leaving the only home they've ever known just ensure their trans kid can get the care they need. Now ask yourself--would you even think about doing this for health care that was anything less than essential for your child's life?

Never buy fountain pens You’ll get addicted, and want to buy more because they are “pretty”, “write so well” and “oh, but look at this color” and your wallet will suffer. But you will make new friends at the art stores, who are also addicted to it

When left-wing American Jews comment on a rise in antisemitism in the US - without ever mentioning Israel or attempting to scapegoat Palestinian solidarity activism - here are some trends over the course of the decade since Trump first ran for President that they are likely referring to:

American Fascism uses the palace intrigue and reality tv style coverage of Trump and musks actions to keep many people from ever acting to protect themselves as they believe the intrigue is the real story not the shiny object meant to divert from the real power consolidation and damage being done.

The lesson people infuriatingly never seem to master is that there is no creating a police state just for other people. If you create a police state with no due process for immigrants or accused criminals, then that's the system you've created for yourself.

I think what a lot of people really really don't understand is that at places with acceptance rates under ~10% there's ALWAYS going to be some luck involved. Swarthmore could fill its next class with ONLY HS class presidents w/4.0+ GPA & 99th pctile SAT & there would still be thousands rejected.
