Indie Bookstore Day is one of the most important days for your community’s bookstores. Punkass Amazon decided Apr 23 - 28 was when they needed to have their “Book Sale”. It is designed to snuff out Indie Bookstore Day on April 26.

It should be an actual law that if you defend your possible decision to try staying a senator until 87 years old by arguing you can still eat solid food you should be disqualified from running for office right then and there

Deporting people means a judge signs a final deportation order, and the person is returned to their own country. What we are doing is kidnapping a person off the street and paying for them to be held indefinitely in concentration camps outside US courts' jurisdiction. 100% deliberately extralegal.

Two things can be horribly true at the same time. In this case: A) At least 75% of the Venezuelans sent to the Salvadorian concentration camp have no criminal history. B) This doesn't matter in an important sense, since NO ONE received due process. NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM should be there.

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again. This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.

So apparently a new gay bar is opening in Long Beach. Its name will be "Men's Room". Jesus Christ, it's 2025. Maybe a little tone-deaf?
