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!!

When secret police agencies in other countries do what ICE is doing (abducting people off the street while wearing masks, throwing them into vehicles, transporting them to undisclosed locations, and not filing any criminal charges) we call it "disappearing" people. That's what's happening here now.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general. If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.

Historian of fascism here. It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too.

You can't shame MAGA. It's impossible to shame shameless people. I go on and debate them, trust me. They will make excuses for and glorify Musk's Nazi salute and Trump pardoning violent insurrectionists. But remember there's a world out there - and the majority opposes it. Be loud. Don't be silent.

We're going to normalize Nazi rhetoric, symbols, slogans, conspiracies and eugenics within 2 weeks. I predicted this would happen by 2024 a few years ago, and I take no joy in being right about it. Corporate media will sanewash it. You think I'm being hyperbolic but you're not paying attention.

Your Daily Affirmation: Even though everything appears to be on fire, I am chilly. Even though the world is awash in heinous fuckery most foul, I am decent, kind, and thoughtful. Just because this is the current normal, does not mean it's normal, and I can make it better.#chill

So it's dangerous for China to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps. But it's okay for America's billionaires to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps. Do I have this right?

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...
