i would simply invent a spiraling that is upward

A dazzling ocean of tulips stretching endlessly in Hokkaido, Japan...

a million people is 1.5x the entire population of Boston proper

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

Let’s talk about yesterday. During a Department of Homeland Security press conference in Los Angeles led by Secretary Kristi Noem, Senator Alex Padilla (D‑CA) was forcibly removed, forced face-down on the ground, and handcuffed by federal agents. Here’s what to know:

House Dems are demanding that Noem testify before Congress after Sen. Padilla was detained by federal agents at her DHS press conference in LA.

The same guy who tells us LA is on fire is at the Kennedy Center watching Les Miserables, and if that isn't ironic, I don’t know what is.

yes. i think the only thing the white house has accomplished this week is dramatically grow the crowds against them.

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

Shut down the Senate.

House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

NONE OF THIS IS NORMAL. Thank you Senator Padilla for defending your constituents and showing exactly what Kristi Noem and this administration stand for.

"Liberate this city from socialists and burdensome leadership." If that's not regime change, I don't know what to tell you. The inflection point is now.

Call your senators, demand they shut the Senate down.

Pretty sure this should tell you all you need to know about the veracity of the DOJ's charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I have VERY VERY mixed feelings about the NY Post but this rules

My portfolio watching the leader of the free world openly feud w/the leader of the 7th biggest company in the stock market:

Trump is attacking Harvard & other nonprofits because they disagree with him. This is about punishing dissent. It’s about silencing nonprofits that serve vulnerable people & our communities. It's about sowing fear. This is authoritarianism, plain & simple. And it's unlawful.

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

I’m officially running to be the Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee. These are not normal times—and this cannot be a business-as-usual moment. Read my full letter to my colleagues here: crockett.house.gov/media/press-...

Yikes

Terrifying stuff. Sharp decline in insect numbers tied to global heating. They are at the base of ecosystems and their decline will reverberate upwards. The fact that this is probably going to happen in my life time. We really need to stop burning fossil fuels today!

BREAKING: Chief Judge James Boasberg finds that those people sent to CECOT under the Alien Enemies Act on March 15-16 had their due process rights violates and certifies them as a class. He orders that the government "facilitate" the ability for them to seek habeas relief.

They're literally doing the meme

1. Missoula, Montana has cleverly voted to defy the Pride flag ban by making the it "an official city flag." This comes after a law banned the flying of the flag but made an exception for "official flags." Now, the Pride flag will fly defiantly in the state. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Remembering Chevalière d'Éon for Pride. A transgender woman in the 1700s who was also a spy and who turned double agent, extorted an entire monarchy to get her gender marker changed, and lived her life as a woman in a time when such was thought impossible. We have always been here.

The anguish of gay Americans who were called “sexual psychopaths” in Congress and fired from their jobs fueled the first public demonstrations for gay rights in the nation. The fight for dignity continued through the AIDS epidemic and the battle for marriage equality.

Hey, so that’s a headline you don’t love to see.

NOW— Mass ICE arrests happened/are happening at the Manhattan immigration court at 290 Broadway on the 20th floor. I was just outside the building and an observer came out crying, confirmed they witnessed people getting detained outside courtrooms while families watched and wept.

All Black people deserve access to services that will help them thrive. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, we released two toolkits with Bazelon Center to support advocates in ending police violence against Black people with disabilities. buff.ly/3RWRlaT

Republican support for gay marriage has fallen to 41%. For those in the LGBTQ+ community who do not believe they are coming after gay marriage next after their draconian anti-trans restrictions, you're in for a surprise - we are all in this together.

NEW: Of the 238 men deported to the prison in El Salvador, DHS data shows: • 130 had no U.S. criminal histories aside from immigration violations; • 32 had been convicted of crimes in the U.S.; • 6 of those were violent crimes.

Trans youth deserve our care and support. 📸 Jordana Bermúdez

Another win!!! Now release him. A federal judge just ruled that the law used to detain Mr. Khalil is likely unconstitutional. Why? Because it’s too vague and was never meant to apply to someone like him a U.S. resident who never left the country.

This is a first for me: an actual, honest to cod COVID memorial in the park by my parents' house.

In advance of yesterday's Why Make Zines in 2025 event, @marc-fischer.bsky.social made a zine of his responses to the question. He shared free copies with everyone in attendance yesterday. I loved that. I brought zines to give away too as well as some buttons and stickers.

Pedro Pascal proves that sometimes the most masculine thing to do is to be vocally and unflinchingly supportive of vulnerable people.

The fact that we’ve just collectively decided to ***ignore*** this is insane

Gender is mostly about doing bits

This is an absolutely insane way to run a country
