The dog downstairs is howling again. Unsure on the number of hours now

Aries: You’ll come in second place at a major competition this week! Unfortunately, it’s a duel.

ICE is now asserting it's a federal crime for bystanders to request that masked people in plain clothes show identification as they're handcuffing folks and stuffing them into unmarked vans.

“We're about to hit a level of scarcity at retailers nationwide that will make covid seem like child's play.”

OTD in 1986 absolutely nothing happened in Chernobyl apart from a rapid, unplanned disassembly which resulted in the plant achieving its 10 year energy target in 2 nanoseconds that was according to the plan.

My ancestors crossed the Atlantic three centuries ago and I am an American in the exact same way as the infant child of undocumented immigrants born here yesterday. There is no difference between us, their right to this country no less than mine. We are entirely equal and I will accept nothing else.

The Supreme Court, as told by lackeys.

I have gotten confirmation from sources inside the Coast Guard that this is in fact true and happened in Key West. ICE went into military housing and took the spouse of a USCG member who is currently out to sea.

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of protesters have now gathered outside a federal courthouse in downtown Milwaukee to support Judge Hannah Dugan

We also need to constantly address the ways that criminalization is used to render people disposable. Every response is "well I thought they would only do X to the criminals."

My dad is in hospice

Trump is lying about egg prices

Selfish people are my favorite because you never have to guess their motives.

Call me crazy---I think everyone should be able to eat.

I use the word “absolutely” entirely too much

RFK Jr blames diet, lifestyle & vaccines for chronic illness. Dr Oz says it’s a “patriotic duty” to lead a healthy life & be fit enough to serve in the military. Neither of them are pushing for Universal Healthcare, basic income, an end to food deserts & inequality, clean water etc. It’s eugenics

Exclusive: The Pentagon will resume gender-affirming care for transgender service members, according to a memo we obtained.

Maddow: 88% of the country says no, no, he cannot defy a supreme court ruling. Only 9% say yes he can. And you know, it's not the same thing. But I should mention that 9% is also the proportion of Americans who told yougov this week that they have a favorable view of the black plague

Trans icon Miss Major was just denied entry on to a plane in Arkansas because her ID had an X gender marker on it.

I'm getting nothing out of this webinar

Does your bestie offer to perform petty crimes and misdemeanors on your behalf? Mine does

Fellow authors, I love you, and I know it feels like we don’t have a choice, but B&N and Am*zon both scheduled sales this week to preempt Independent Bookstore Day, a hugely vital source of income for indie bookstores. Please don’t promote their sales; please promote your local indie this week.

FLEXPORT: “.. In the 3 weeks since the tariffs took effect, ocean container bookings from China to the United States are down over 60% industry wide.” #SummerOfScarcity 🇺🇸

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

RFK Jr wants us to believe that chronic illness is a moral failing. That people should “try harder” to be healthy. He doesn’t want us to realize that poverty, food insecurity, lack of universal healthcare, poor public health and other government failures cause more disease than lifestyle ever will.

“The service for LGBTQ youth has received 1.3 million calls, texts, or chats since 2022. In February, the program received an average of 2,100 contacts per day.”

This should be the top story in Axios’s morning read. But it isn’t. It’s the FIFTH top story. @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/04/23/t...

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

"We cannot give everyone a trial," says the president of these United States.

If you won't argue for the unconditional human rights of the worst person imaginable, then you don't actually believe in the concept.

ICE officers are now reportedly required to meet arrest quotas each day, from a few hundred to between 1,200 and 1,500 nationwide. Jonathan Blitzer reports on the mystery of the agency’s unidentifiable arrests.

Laura Loomer—who recently met with Donald Trump in the Oval Office and influenced the firings of top national security officials—suggests that removing people from the United States without due process isn’t so extreme when compared to the alternative: simply shooting them to death on sight.
