School vouchers are an incredible example of "what if, instead of doing the obvious thing that works, we did an extremely complicated thing that doesn't work"

"Diagnosis, not transgender status" is the wedge that will be used to ban gender affirming healthcare for adults and if you think it won't be - you're not paying attention, you don't care, or you're a fucking loser.

“The police violence was totally unprovoked and has been the worst I’ve ever seen it in all my years of covering protesting,” said photographer Kemal Cilenigr, who documented the day’s shift from peaceful to besieged. lataco.com/no-kings-pro...

There are more of us than there are of them. There are so many more of us than there are of them. That has to be worth something. That's worth something right? You would think someone could do something with that fact. www.welcometohellworld.com/there-are-mo...

Arturo Obrego, a 77-year-old army veteran who hitchiked from Huntington Beach is going viral for getting hit with wooden baton by officers on horses and knocked down during today’s peaceful “No Kings” protest in DTLA. @TheGlutster ran into him at Union Station a couple of hours after the incident.

You’re seeing a lot on TV rn about force and misconduct in Los Angeles sheriff department's role. Well, here’s what happened when someone tried to get serious about bringing accountability to the department: she faced huge pushback… and now she faces criminal charges. boltsmag.org/the-curious-...

This last week is a real demonstration of how capacious, yet flattened the word "violent" is in our political discourse. Political assassinations are obviously, clearly violent. But the same word has been used all week to describe protestors damaging objects--not people, objects.

as a former Minnesotan: listen to the Strib/MPR on this, not other sources, they're actually on the ground.

NEW & BREAKING For @lapublicpress.bsky.social LAPD mobilizes every single officer ahead of ‘No Kings Day’ protests lapublicpress.org/2025/06/lapd...

Another excellent liveskeet from Joshua; docket is www.courtlistener.com/docket/70496... and Breyer hopes to have the ruling out today (corrected docket link, I grabbed the wrong case)

Shoutout to all the other California 1099s facing the 'do I pay my estimated quarterlies or decline to send my $$$ to an illegitimate occupying force' quandary this week.

🚨 ALERT 🚨 Huge mobilization of feds heading towards Camarillo - 15+ transport vehicles spotted. Multiple sources confirmed, raids on farmworkers in Camarillo planned. Spread the word and stay safe

Hearing from a few reporters that protesters in New York have taken to chanting “LA LA make us proud/burn another Waymo down”

Imagining Huell walking up to the phalanx of National Guardsmen, putting him arm on one of their shoulders and a microphone in their face and saying, "Nice to meet you, sir, now tell me what y'all are doing here today."

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Working hard to defend the rights, dignity, and well-being of immigrants, refugees, and the undocumented, they need our help more than ever right now. You can find this article and all resources to combat ICE on a special link we created. Lataco.com/ice Please share

We made a clip of everyone’s favorite moment from this week’s episode on Amy Heckerling’s LOSER because we love you. #EmoEverclear

"You liberals & leftists need to come back to Twitter, the social media app that will threaten your family & have you arrested for doing something legal"

They Will Call You Violent

Repeating my helpful little mnemonic song from Twitter: If he'll drive you to the criming, he's a Fed 👏👏 If he'll drive you to the criming, he's a Fed 👏👏 If you can't get there without him And you don't know much about him If he'll drive you to the criming, he's a Fed 👏👏

Musk was never gonna go dem, he was always going to try to reshape the republican party in his image. In a toxic break up, you don’t date their eneny. You date one of their homies and then turn the rest of the friend group against them It’s Toxic Couple theory

the president wont see your cheap dunks against jeffery epstein . But your friends who have ties to state sponsored pedophilia will

I have to say that it seems like lots of AI power users are in the gamified machine zone — attracted by the constant attention of feedback loops, agnostic of what that feedback is. The casino has come for the minds of the C suite.

Did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave summoned one thousand imps, and she named them all Dave?

i know technofeudalism is the hot term but for a while now i've been thinking the plantation is the better model for what these interests are actually pushing. i suspect even the monarchical fantasia of Thiel et al is an attempt to disavow this reality

May we see the Empire's weapons crash and become useless through our actions.

My thoughts on the Take It Down Act as someone who used to handle copyright takedown (and other) requests at Google. 🧵 As many have said, this law will be used as the ultimate weapon for the Trump Admin to censor speech from their political opponents (and more). www.theverge.com/policy/62497...

when i say homestuck made this world i am talking about things like this: "Increasingly, the only way to interact with commercial LLMs is to command them imperatively, obscuring their actual workings as text continuation machines."

And this is why we don't use follow farming or followback hashtags, so automatic followback, or follow someone just because they look like they're on your side

Happy one year anniversary to Taylor giving me the excuse to finally write this article

For as long as I have lived here, I have considered the Public Storage building on Beverly to be the scariest building in LA and I’m just now finding out that it was also home to booze and dance crimes la.curbed.com/2020/4/1/211...

Remember when I said don’t post anything on social media that you wouldn’t want coming up in a court of law? This is why. www.404media.co/this-college...
