At some point they’re going to go after Wikipedia and the Wayback Machine. More decentralised global efforts needed. “He who controls the past controls the future.”

Spent my weekend doing shrooms & watching time loop movies. Mental vacation with my other half. Created our own couch-time dilation of phenomenal, dendritic, dissociative silliness--extra cozy with blankets & snacks. Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

There's a lot that needs to change about the food system and how we relate to food, but that MAHA bullshit isn't going to help anything. Health grifters, labor exploiters, and finance parasites aren't going to address food deserts, unsustainable farming methods, and public health in any good ways.

Tee hee 🤭

I've grappled with such deep frustration about this, while microscopically ruminating on my failure to become the teacher I naively envisioned. I could never find a way to say or present so succinctly how: (🧵 A rant/ TED talk on how hero industries prey on the idealists who want to help)

That this is even written as a potential matter of legislature to be considered is such a huuuuge nefarious red flag. They wanna cry and whine about "lawfare," then turn around and use an amped up version of lawfare against the people, like cartoon villains. An incredibly DANGEROUS stepping stone

“What’s the point of celebrating a dog’s birthday? They don’t even understand it!” Oooh yeah, I would hate it so much if the hyper-intelligent creatures that loved me and took care of me made me have an awesome day for no reason. That would suck so bad oooohhh. I would hate having a special cake ah

I have started teaching Sara Ahmed’s the organization of hate routinely as I deal with a decidedly more right wing student body post Covid and nothing has been more effective. To explain that love- of a sovereign community abstract, unreal and narrowly defined- is the beginning of hate is effective.

Nature is cruel. Perhaps the ultimate tradeoff is cold, inescapable Natural Selection? Cruel, abusive, and avoidable... But maybe that lesson needs to be learned firsthand by the people refusing to listen to collective learned science 😔

Dunk on all the hot takes you hear around the dinner table today. We've got cold, hard facts for you. youtu.be/bFDUHTqYN40?...

Fluffbrains angry about drag queens influencing their children in libraries--as if they could walk into any library (bet they never do 🤷‍♀️) & see such a thing. MEANWHILE, the GOVERNMENT is in libraries restricting their kids' freedom and telling them what they can and can't read.

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

We don't know what it's going to look like when grumpy trumpy gets sworn in and "immediately enforces a state of emergency." Keep big government tf out of your community.

JUSTICE FOR P-NUT THE SQUIRREL, RIGHT BROTHERS And SISTERS?!?! But not this tho. This is of little importance.

2-month-old Destinii Hope and her mother Maria Pike were murdered by Missouri police after a trigger-happy cop couldn't handle a mental health call. Police are trying to claim the woman had a knife, her husband who witnessed everything says that is a lie. (1/2)

We can't have access to quality healthcare which would and should include access to abortion, no. But we can have this. 🫡🇺🇸🇺🇲🇺🇸🇺🇲🇺🇸🎇🎆🤠

The freedom of the press is in peril, and we need to do what we can to protect it. This is one step: let your senators know they need to make the PRESS Act a priority before this Congress ends. Language/letter to send via @resist.bot and @eff.org:

The last time I felt this physically ill every single day while looking at the news, was right after 9/11, when all news outlets just kept playing clips of the burning towers over and over, day after day. Week after week. I was 11. I felt so, so helpless and hopeless. It was grief. It's grief.

The problem with pieces like this, which are countless, is the prevailing media assumption that left-of-center Americans need constant corrective instruction about how to be in and engage with the world, whereas right-of-center Americans are simply to be observed in awe, like rainbows or mountains.

Lol @ tightywhitey ppl who ~desperately~ surround themselves with ONLY ppl who think & look like them crying "echo chamber, echo chamber!" at the place where everyone they mock & chase away for being freaks or "dei hires" (🙄🙄🙄😒) in their limited worldview--went to get away from their gross opinions.
