Hello friends. I know times are dark but it is incredibly important not to lose hope. And, this week there are signs of hope and it paramount we recognize that hope, not let up and build. A thread on this if I may. You may appreciate this on a Friday. Come along with me. 🧵 (1/10)

Sure would be nice if the U.S. continued funding stuff like “vaccines for pancreatic cancer.”

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

Hegseth is going to fire every woman or Black person in military leadership.

it is really notable the extent to which state Dems have been significantly better than federal Dems at telling Trump to go fuck himself

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Very much like the Iraq War, somehow "I thought Elon Musk was a genius until a couple years ago" is now considered the more respectable and serious opinion than "I knew he was a fraud for a decade and was never fooled by him."

Spoiler: The glue is failing in freezing weather. Because they used glue on the Cybertruck.

Fuck Trump

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?

Working from home actually helps the productivity & bottom line more often than not — but C Suite Executives have been brainwashed by Republican media into a culture war against remote working. Even the CEO of Zoom demanded a return to office. And why is it a culture war? Because workers like it.

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games! Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI. You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:- www.polygon-treehouse.com/no-gen-ai-seal

You don’t need to overthink it. Trump has shown contempt for democracy since his first campaign. The people around him read Yarvin and think he should be a king. It is what it looks like.

ALERT: US government is planning to take down the free COVID tests site tonight! Order now! covidtests.gov And the US government is looking into destroying $500 million in stockpiled COVID tests! They should NOT destroy these tests! wapo.st/42VLGQh

Musk’s staffers are accessing the heavily guarded Internal Revenue Service (IRS) system, which contains detailed financial information on every taxpayer, business, and nonprofit in the country.

Mask bans kill disabled people. It’s a eugenics tool. By others not masking in solidarity, you’re saying your comfort and convenience is more important than our lives. Abled comfort and convenience do not outweigh disabled lives and safety. Does your “we keep us safe” include disabled people?

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

School play gets canceled for "inappropriate content". In response students write [REDACTED], their own anti-censorship play skewering the school district, sells out performances, and ultimately takes gold at the Lenaea High School Theatre Festival. www.kqed.org/arts/1397192...

Weaponized unreality is about to be in everyone’s lives in truly extraordinarily damaging and dangerous way. Fascist revisionism on tap coupled with increasingly photorealistic image generation and audiovisual generation are about to swamp any ability to understand our present or past.

We have to start changing how we talk about these facilities. The Guantanamo 'detention centre' is a concentration camp. The proposed 'wellness farms' would also be a concentration camp. This isn't about making America healthy... this is eugenics and fascism. Call it what it is.

Another lie 🤥
