Great reporting on the sad state of media choice and where and what ad dollars are funding.

“I find it frustrating and lazy that men don’t get involved,” Ryan Hamilton said. “Why are you not out here going, ‘How dare you?’ … You’re happy to let your wife or daughter go out and tell their nightmare story over and over again while you sit your lazy ass at home?”

"We reimagine through feminism, always keeping patriarchy in the crosshairs and disarming with beauty – the beauty of purpose and a determination to dismantle all that keeps you from being free. We refuse when we accept anarchism’s invitation to dance."

L to the OG

Definitely got some dude calling my latest article "a hit piece on Trump" when it just explained the actions the administration is taking.

that "only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" quote works another way, too the only thing necessary to defeat evil is for good people to do nothing that evil asks of them psychological force, not physical force, is their primary weapon, and you can resist it

What’s maddening is that these folks are fine with abortion bans because they don’t believe it impacts them. Yet all reproductive health is tied. The anti-abortion movement doesn’t support fertility treatments either. They reject the concept of reproductive health and “unnatural” technologies.

Petition for more babies in congress

It's why I always rage against those family stick people bumper stickers. Why is the man stick figure always in front (and don't give me height aesthetics bullshit!)

Holy shit, that pilot saved a lot of lives.

Proud of this list and the team that put it together! Writers over 40 have so much to say and such rich ideas. Check it out!!

I'm on the BBC homepage today, wish it was for something more uplifting! www.bbc.com/travel/artic...

Everybody watched a literal nobody drag a woman out of a meeting. That is something else.

I've been saying, you can't play chess if the other side is setting the board on fire. You are no longer playing chess. You're now losing at a new game, arson.

So I did this today: banged out a couple hundred words of a pitch while managing lab, sent it to the opinion page editor at the newspaper my parents still somehow get in print, and got back a "yes" in, I absolutely kid you not, under 15 minutes

Dear manager: 1. I have eaten the plums 2. That were in the icebox 3. And which you were probably saving for breakfast 4. Forgive me they were delicious 5. So sweet and so cold

It’s been wild to see so many headlines about the firings at the Joint Chiefs of Staff and none of them explicitly saying “Trump fired the one Black person and the one woman so he could have an all white male Joint Chiefs”

I’ve noticed how often even well-meaning cis white men just *totally miss* that the Musk/Trump regime are obviously driven by overt and hideous misogyny, in addition to overt and hideous racism.

as if nations haven't fallen based on incredibly mid kings and other assorted nepo babies

Such a smart take from my fave medieval authors! This is exactly why I love studying/re-imagining the past.

CIA going into foreign countries like this

I heard the NEA is only considering proposals related to 1776 & the USA’s 250th birthday & I was feeling intensely patriotic, so I’m printing these really big posters inspired *directly* by the Founding Fathers The cut was carved from the masthead of a 19th century newspaper

Even asteroids are like, “Nope, not worth it.” And, honestly, I get it.

Oh cool Trump just re-invented DARE.

everyone talks about obeying in advance in authoritarianism, but i didnt realize how stupid and chaotic that would actually look irl www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Wrote about the morally vacuous, strategically unsound (and also wrong!) anti-“woke”diagnosis everyone’s still sticking with, even in the midst of civil rights apocalypse.

I knew fake quotes would eventually doom us all

They really think women should not be in the public sphere in any capacity, let alone make any money there.

Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

So basically the federal govt is getting Red Lobstered.

If we’re renaming bodies of water based on petty grievances, I propose that this be renamed the Kendrick Lamar passage.

I know we give boomers a lot of shit. But shout-out to all those (like my mom) who called their kids to explain "this rapper fued." Delighted to oblige

Thank you @bradmjohnson.com, a true honor to be asked! The quality of scripts I read for this year's Grey List was truly off the charts. Just another reminder that if you don't place it one year or contest, keep submitting as your work is SO important and SO needed in the world. #scriptsky

I have become pro typo in the ai era

Related, I remember when Tostinos was among the first brands to join Facebook, and it was so bizarre to me, "how can you friend a brand??" Well, here we are (or going fr).

Feels like these guys are cosplaying their GI Joe fantasies

I shared this with some folks yesterday: The academy's inaction protecting Black scholars and scholars that study issues related to Black people paved the way for everything else. What comes for Black folks will inevitably land on your doorstep too. If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready.

The ASL version of “Not Like Us” is magnificent.
