“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I miss the days when YA drama was like "This person in my debut group one-starred my book on Goodreads" and not like "this school district in Florida set a bunch of books on fire and also the FBI now has me on a list for writing about Black people."

Here's your Yooper TGIF sunrise. This is from the northwest corner of Lake Michigan. #mymichigan #906Life

Born on this day Texas legend Barbara Jordan 1936 As a politician, she dedicated her life to public service & in doing so broke through countless barriers for both African Americans & women. Today we celebrate & honor her legacy as a trailblazer & a true fighter for Texas families. #BlackHistory

who’s gonna do it, who will be the hero we needed

And who they didn't like

Overflow angry crowd for town hall with Glenn Grothman in Oshkosh this morning ... www.wpr.org/news/glenn-g...

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

Hello! My name is Ellsworth. Good Evening or Is it Good Morning? Rachel Maddow is now on again right now in case you want to see it. Me and my spouse braved the snowy driveway to go grocery shopping today. The store was a mob!!!!! We barely got out there alive! The puppies are doing great!

In my occasional photo series of deadly icicles of the Junction Triangle, I have two new submissions:

#MAGAts are turning on Musk/Trump -- do it! And I'll rise up, I'll rise like the day I'll rise up, I'll rise unafraid I'll rise up And I'll do it a thousand times again And I'll rise up, high like the waves I'll rise up in spite of the ache I'll rise up And I'll do it a thousand times again

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Ain't that the truth! youtu.be/SUpLi6njfkU?...

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

I can’t wait to see these old, fat fuck Trumper’s around me locally….having to get up on a ladder in the June heat…and and roof their own houses…because the migrants are either gone, or too afraid to work and get caught. I’ll honk, wave, and say, “Damn! It sure is hot today, eh?!

I want to do an experiment where I don’t read, consume, or learn about any news for a week. But the challenge is I would have to remove myself from email and text messages entirely….because I get so many texts from friends about news. Hmmmm….

John Fetterman’s staff are leaving him in droves and there are awful rumors about how he treats them. Are we sure he’s not just three Kyrsten Sinemas sitting on each other’s shoulders in a hoodie? Our latest:

DOGE = Department of Gross Errors

I've seen an old misunderstanding going around; that libraries don't benefit authors. But they do! A lot! Here's how:

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Why is @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social on book tour instead of doing a fight back tour?

firing for "too much DEI" is plainly firing a woman and a Black man on the presumption only white men can be qualified. this is disgusting biogtry.

Minnesota is now South Manitoba. I don't make the rules.

Why are we here in a world where American oligarchs are buying our politicians and getting to run amock in the government? One of the worst decisions in Supreme Court history: Citizen’s United.

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

Friends, we're ok This night russian scum attacked with 160 strike& various decoy drones from russia Also 2 Iskander ballistic missiles hit Odesa region from Crimea 87 drones were shot down, another 70 lost in location I heard loud explosions during the night Today I work remotely

Heard a song from the 80s reference a "long distance call" and it occurred to me that this is a concept that no longer holds any emotional currency whatsoever
