Childhood disease before vaccination is why we don't have a word for a parent who's buried a child. An orphan is defined by lack of parents, a widow by lack of husband, but before vaccines, almost every adult of childbearing age had buried at least one baby, if not more.

Josh Hawley is using the regime’s manufactured crisis to begin criminalizing opposition organizations. He’s launching a Senate investigation into immigrant rights organizations. This is how dictators make it illegal to oppose them.

We're living at a moment when ICE is threatening not only to arrest and deport immigrants but arrest and prosecute everyday people and leaders for educating others about their constitutional rights. Helping to defend our immigrant communities is one clear action that we can all take right now. ⤵️

If something happened in America, it's American history. That includes the parts people don't want to think about. "Knowing we stole land from Native Americans/stole people for the slave trade/stole property from incarcerated Japanese citizens makes me feel icky" is not a counterpoint to reality.

I still cannot believe that women’s sports—a topic literally no one but queer women cared about, to the point that every TV show took cheap shots at the WNBA—was the fucking Rubicon for trans genocide.

Multiple cultures, completely independent of each other: "Hey what if we mixed fish with salt, stuck it in a jar, and ignored it for several months, then put the juice on our food?" Asian countries make sense, there was a lot of trade between them. But ITALY?

I do not understand telling creatives to "shut up about politics." One, this is life in this world. You can acknowledge being part of it, or you can pretend you're immune until you find out you're wrong. Two, there are plenty of creatives doing the latter. If you don't like us, follow them 🤷‍♀️

Folk songs and poetry are amazing ways we can learn from our collective past to shape a better collective future. This Anonymously written poem from the late 18th century was a challenge to the privatization of common (public) resources and green spaces… Sound familiar?
