I skeet about politics A LOT.
I’m a feminist who is obsessed w/the Humanities. All of them. I get kinda (non religiously) preachy sometimes. Apologies in advance.

Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”

For the past few years rather than share Blk history factoids instead what I’ve done is provide a prompt then people can do their own research in their own time. I’ve gotten good feedback for doing it this way
So in honor of Black History month
Today's prompt is Elana Meyers Taylor

It’s pretty amazing how with well these idiots are doing w/radicalizing avg, non political Americans. I realize this is nowhere near their intent which in itself, says A Lot. No one is okay w/Feds tear gassing their neighborhood.
Tear gassing AFTER they caused a wreck? Instant radicalization.

ICE just crashed a car at my intersection (due to their own shitty driving) and immediately got out and tear gassed observers.

I’ve spent years fighting blue state Dems on the fact that most Texans aren’t right wing lunatics. I’ve also tried to explain time & time again that Texas is a blueprint for Authoritarianism. “You should move” is a privileged take but more importantly, why didn’t our Fed Gov GAF about our votes.

I stocked up in advance but was running a couple orders today. It’s not looking good in Texas. No bread, water, lunch meat, only about 20% of produce, etc. Winter freeze 2026.

In our conservative estimate, 41 percent of Grok’s images — or 1.8 million — were sexualized depictions of women. Separately, CCDH analyzed how many were sexualized images across genders and ages. Their findings: an estimated 3 million images, including more than 23,000 of children.

If AI was actually “intelligent” I bet it could help them out with a solution here but that’s the scam, right?
It’s not artificial intelligence b/c it’s “intelligence” is an illusion. AI lacks comprehension & the ability to “think” abstractly. It’s data driven automation. It’s a scam.

Something v strange happened to me yesterday & I’m still v freaked out. It was scam related but they used non public info. Local officer (called to report) sent me to the County but I believe someone on the inside is involved. She confirmed I’m not being crazy. Things aren’t adding up. 🧵 1/7

A thing that might not be clear from the outside is that while everyone here is engaged in this fight, ICE’s use of dystopian technology means that you essentially have to pick a lane between observing ICE and doing mutual aid. They are tracking observers’ cars, and taking pictures of their faces.

ICE/CBP rear ended a woman’s car so at fault wreck. They observed ICE/CBP take her passport (US Citizen) then pull her out of her car, arrest her, & place her in an SUV. Also kneeled on a witnesses head & took them despite medical necessity.
Caused an accident. Kidnapped the driver. Fled the scene.

At around 1:40 this afternoon, I witnessed federal agents with ICE and CBP arresting a US citizen after hitting her car from behind, and then kneeling on the head of a legal observer in the snow, preventing breathing and bloodying their face.
