This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

I kind of like seeing people bid farewell to tiktok on tiktok. It's closure, ya know? We never held a funeral for Twitter. Maybe that would have helped.

If we can take one thing from the way lynch talks about art I think it should be to never again dilute your vision and don't put off any art you want to make because it all dies with you, there's no other way, there's no one else

The take I am most certain of that gets me in the most trouble is just "The reason homes are so expensive is because there are not enough of them, so we really really really need to build more of them."

When I complained to Theodore Sturgeon about trouble I was having with a scene, he looked at me and said, "I give you permission to do it wrong." Most liberating thing I ever heard.

Ok, folks. Buckle up, because I'm about to give you a very long thread of guidance about internet privacy and safety in an evolving landscape. I am a security architect with more than twenty years of experience in this maelstrom, so hold on tight. 🧵 Odin is as tired as we are.

Watching the 2002 Count of Monte Cristo. I forgot that in this version Mondego read the letter from Napoleon and knew it was treasonous. But when confronted by Dantes he says he turned him in because of jealousy. Dude! Just say you turned him in because he's a traitor!

Findings from the Senate Judiciary Committee's probe into the Supreme Court's 'ethical crisis': • Scalia accepted lavish gifts from billionaires and others with business before the Court for over a decade, in violation of federal law, including 258 personal trips, dozens of which weren't disclosed.

just blurted out in class "yes, you have to cite where you got your info. in a world in which lying loudly is the only thing that seems to get rewarded, citing your sources is an act of resistance" and folks, I really believe that.

it is kind of fascinating to watch a segment of the OECD population get into the idea of subsistence agriculture, the thing that our ancestors (and many of our contemporaries) spent their lives trying to escape.

Return-to-office (RTO) mandates lead to abnormally high employee turnover, especially for female/more senior/more skilled employees. It also takes significantly longer to fill these job vacancies after RTO mandates. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Remember that alarming story circulating recently about the dangers of black plastic utensils? Well, the risk they identified was 10 times higher than it actually is, because the authors of the study made a multiplication error. nationalpost.com/news/canada/...

When I was a kid in middle school, other kids said "White Christmas" was a song about race. I remember thinking they were being ridiculous. Every year I hear this song I reconsider. Regardless of the original meaning, to me it sounds more and more MAGA these days.

It's hard to see a Trump administration militarily supporting Taiwan if Xi were to attack. They'd probably impose an embargo and call it a day. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

This is madness. If other countries want to sell us solar on the cheap so we can expedite adoption of clean energy, let them. Either climate change is a crisis, or it isn't. www.reuters.com/business/ene...

Testing the echo chamber hypothesis: The USA owes reparations for more than just slavery. When folks make reparations about the feasibility of reparations for slavery, they're shifting focus away from reparations that are owed to the living for policies enacted within our lifetimes.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor. I spent my childhood behind barbed wire. My parents lost everything. 1/

This is a photograph of my great uncle, Jim Ida, in 1942. The photograph was taken by Dorothea Lange as part of her documentation of the Japanese American incarceration. He is sitting with his family’s bags, waiting to be taken to an internment camp. (Tanforan, I believe.) He was 17.
