SCOOP: The Trump admin appears to be going into a visa database to quietly change students' immigration status. It's coming entirely by surprise — setting students up to be detained without warning. It's Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk — on a wider scale.

Elon’s had fourteen kids with four different women, allegedly through sex-selective in vitro fertilization, giving them names like Exa Dark Sideræl and Tau Techno Mechanicus, and it’s amazing we don’t talk about how thoroughly weird that really is.

I’m seeing a lot of negative reviews on games along the lines of “this isn’t exactly what I wanted, even though it was exactly what was promised”. I can’t overstate how much more joy you will have if you allow art to unfurl in front of you, instead of demanding it be what you imagine you want.

Intervention works! These folks know they are doing sketchy crime work - Together? We can interfere, put them off, and freak them out. Alone it is difficult, but together? Together we are strong. (and so many more than them). Practice stepping forward.

As someone who spent most of my career dealing with financial fraud (first as an SEC attorney and later as a banking law professor), I am pretty familiar with the concept of a Ponzi scheme. Social Security? Not a Ponzi scheme. Elon Musk's businesses? Looking more and more like a Ponzi scheme.

This has been a remarkably successful form of contentious politics. I think it helps that it's targeted at a brand not an identity group (see the anti-Netanyahu protests) so there isn't a group that "loses" if the protest succeeds

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies. In Denmark: - Health care and college are free. - The starting wage is $22/hr. - Paid parental leave is 1 year. - Paid vacation is 6 weeks. - All workers get pensions.

‘Princess Mononoke’ re-release is no. 1 film in North America on per-theater basis. The new 4K Imax restoration of the nearly 30-year-old film is heating up the box office.

Social Security—like American democracy itself—has never faced a crisis like Elon Musk. The damage he's doing will be calculated for the rest of this century, but it can already be felt in the hearts of the 73 million Americans who depend on Social Security.

When people say “write what you know,” they don’t mean than only the fictional profession of ‘mech pilot’ can write about mechs. They mean this: that I try really, really hard to put myself into every page I write, and I am glad that resonates and makes us all feel a little less lonely.

Walked past a Cybertruck parked in front of a sidewalk cafe in NYC today. Friend stopped to look for something in his pocket and the owner clicked the fob to make sure we knew he was watching over it. Imagine buying a tank to feel safe in the big bad world and instead you have to keep the car safe.

Abolish ICE is not an absurdity statement. ICE was created in 2003 as a response to 9/11 - we do not need it. We already established that following orders isn't an excuse.

You ever think one of those skiff guards during the Sarlacc fight was really hurt that his coworker was secretly Lando Calrissian and turned on him out of the blue? “The hell, dude? I brought in donuts yesterday, and now you’re shooting at me? I know you ate fucking three of them!”

As Bluesky has grown, I've seen a lot of backsliding on alt text. Please try to be considerate to others and include alt text with all of your images. It helps everyone. Indeed, in the "accessibility" setting in Bluesky you can set it to make sure you add alt text, which is a useful thing to do.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Something I've learned about film this past year is how art is used by people in order to document their lives and experiences. People can try hard to overlook the work, but if or when the work is uncovered, it can speak volumes to people about what may have gone unsaid throughout documented history

Telling how Fetterman's analysis of 2024 is nothing more than the crude identity politics practiced only by the right. Progressives got a Black woman who wasn't in her 80s, ergo, "what they wanted." Nevermind her positions, her campaign, or what progressives said about both; identity is everything.

JFC. Look, a "majority of voters" didn't support interracial marriage or civil rights or women voting etc. This idea that human & civil rights are based on what every dumbfuck bigot does or doesn't agree with is TOXIC. We're toast as a species if we give in on this.

Something that I've noticed get demonstrably worse in my lifetime is the idea that human & civil rights are something granted to us by governments and voters. As in, we only have human rights if other people think we do & vote on it. That is fucked all the way up and bassackwards.

We need every branded account to start developing crass strategies for bullying Elon Musk for easy clout. Chum the water. I don’t approve of brands but if the Charmin account tells him to put a gun in his mouth and that’s the thing that does it I’m exclusively buying that toilet paper for life.

PSA: If you want a comic to keep going, try to leave comments sometimes. Webtoon doesn't show artists who views or likes an episode, so we can't tell who's still reading unless they comment. The pay's so bad that the MAIN reason I still post TENACITY online is because I love reading the comments.
