My dad lives in SELA. He is a Mexican immigrant with an accent. He is sad and angry and afraid to travel. But he wants to protest and I’ve had to talk him out of it; I’ve had to tell him that they will crack his head open and it doesn’t matter that he’s 74 or a U.S. citizen.

The evolution of people earnestly posting and talking to each other just to talk to each other and the self-branding, self-promotion thing, really is striking. And the people who complain about not being the center of attention on new platforms almost always fall in the latter iteration.

the cumbia, mariachi, folklorico dancers at protests aren't like...fun add-ons. in the same way that drums and dancers at Indigenous protests aren't accessories. our cultures are part of HOW we protest. it brings people together, it makes space for something besides fear, and it grounds people

Proving once again that certain people get called "experts" without any scrutiny while the rest of us are forced to jump through flaming hoops and conquer byzantine challenges to grudgingly be called a person with relevant experience

the "experts" are: —two guys from something called the Network Contagion Research Institute which only punches left and is funded by an Israeli surveillance entrepreneur —a grad student who disagrees with the premise of the article —a guy from CSIS, which has zero expertise in domestic policy

Guess I'll find out soon if my theory about LeeBeeBee's role in the narrative, related to why she was written into the show, is correct. Honestly though, I don't think they needed to make her sexually harass SecUnit in ep5 to accomplish it

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack “free speech” guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.

Every time I remember Greta Thunberg exists, every time I see how young she is, how many battles she has become embroiled in, how completely reasonable and fair the things are says are, I think of how fucked her media treatment has been.

No matter how much our loved ones love us and support us in living with chronic illnesses, it can still feel incredibly, crushingly lonely handling all the things just to wake up another day. This has been me too many days and nights to count. If this is you today, please know: you are not alone 💗

Snake folks, help me out! I just saw a small (8-9 inches long) and slender black snake with long pink stripes going down the length of its body. I'd say it was an eastern ribbonsnake, but the lines weren't yellow. Suggestions? I live in the Houston area, if that helps.
