Who will say his name in honor and reverence

Everything is shit, but I made some porcelain tile cookies🌀

I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews.

Dr. Toni Morrison on white women - a whole damn read:

AI’s only general purpose use is to control labor. Thank you.

And again I cite Einstein It’s really racist you think it’s a brain drain for a white man to leave America But not for Black Americans to be denied education and theirs almost no sympathy or even mention of how the people under the fascism we’re treated

They want to track autism, miscarriages, abortion, birth control use but don’t want to track measles, bird flu, Covid or salmonella. Ask yourselves why that is. They’re setting the stage to blame people for their disabilities. To slate them for elimination. It’s eugenics & it’s escalating.

This man has looked the same my whole Life.

Stealing children is a founding practice of the American state

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. First Trump illegally sent a child’s father to be imprisoned without trial or due process in El Salvador. Then ICE grabbed her mother to be deported to Venezuela. But despite the mom saying she wanted to leave with her daughter, ICE is keeping the baby!

I know the people that were chanting deport them now don’t give a fuck- but truly, all immigration policy is at this point is a massive retaliation and control machine.

They're dismantling (what remains of) the social safety net and replacing it with a dragnet instead.

Stating, "There should be no politics in a classroom," will NOT remove politics from the equation. This statement, a call to censor political discussion at universities, is itself a political stance that at this conjuncture sides with authoritarianism.

Living Colour releases their debut LP today in 1988 — with “Cult of Personality”, a song inspired by a chat during rehearsal about what makes a leader charismatic. “Vernon played a riff,” said drummer Will Calhoun. “And next we knew we had a song. All while we were setting up for sound check.”

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen something so simultaneously absurd and disturbing: the House will vote Monday on a bill that would punish Americans for participating in boycotts of Israel with fines of up to $1 MILLION or prison terms up to TWENTY YEARS.

AOC: They want to talk about why America is great or making America great. Our civil liberties and our civil protections are part of what makes America great. When you want to shred up our constitution and eliminate due process, it is attacking what it is to be an American.

It’s not a happy accident that so many intellectuals/ liberals/ leftists Magically can’t talk to Black people but MUST talk to every racist and fool Every moment of every fucking day And contribute to the silencing of Black people

WATCH: This explainer from @PBS shows how newly planted forests become carbon emitters and why protecting standing forests is much more valuable when it comes to slowing the climate crisis.

Update: the Trump administration has proposed cutting the National Park System by $900 million, about one third of its budget.

Even when I try to write about fascism I write about plants

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 49 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Vitamin A won't cure measles. A 'healthy diet' won't stop you from getting measles. "Wellness" doesn't make you immune to disease and disability. The people who push these ideas are eugenicists. They are conditioning you to believe disability and chronic illness is our fault.

And to think I've been an eternal optimist all my life...but in 2025...

Republicans now control North Carolina's state election board, after pulling off the power grab they started in January when Democrats won the governor's race again. Now expect the election board to try to help the Republican trying to overturn November's state supreme court election.

UPDATE from the attacked Gaza aid ship: They're trying to enter Maltese territory because of damage to the ship, and fears of a possible second attack. The Maltese Coast Guard is allegedly blocking them. "I am just following orders from higher authorities," an officer is heard over the radio.

Marcello Hernández Is Comedy’s Lovable Chaos Agent Rolling Stone hung out with the 'SNL' heartthrob and it was as hilarious as you think. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

In between the stories of horrific human rights abuses and trade war insanity I remember that they have also destroyed all our research and data infrastructure and effectively ended any environmental, health, or labor regulation.

Pedro Pascal on Marcello Hernández: “Marcello is effortlessly himself, an identity shaped by Latinidad and Miami, strong women, a hungry brain — all of which are evident in a single gesture or look. ...I think he’s a star.” rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

At some pint, many many people are going to have to ask themselves why they’re so obsessed with punishment, what is the goal, and has that preoccupation made them feel any better or safer.

struggling to find words for the attack on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla… it is an extension of the genocide, an attempt to continue to starve and impoverish Palestinians to death It is horrific and should be a much bigger news story than it currently is

I will use every opportunity I get in public settings to remind people how each ChatGPT prompt they use wastes 100ml water and potentially causes the unaliving of a person in Kenya/India/Malaysia/etc Each.Single.Prompt.

I hope something good happens to you today.

clarithromycin is an antibiotic. Antibiotics kill bacteria. Measles is a virus. While it might be useful for secondary infections it won't treat measles. Also, why are they insisting we get sick when there's an effective vaccine from stopping us from getting sick.
