I stand with County Executive Calvin Ball as he signs emergency legislation today prohibiting privately owned buildings from being used as ICE detention centers.
Howard County chose dignity, accountability, and its people. Tune into our event now:

You know I've thought about it a lot and I really do think getting drawn by yoji shinkawa would basically be the best thing that could happen to a person in their lifetime

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

The glibness with which these people are dismissing what is, fundamentally, an extensive record of elite atrocities makes me think it’s better if I don’t finish this sentence
raise your hand if you are not, in fact, in the Epstein files

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

“There will still be assholes in communism” nobody said there wouldn’t be. But they’ll be living in an apartment like everyone else. Using the same healthcare system. And not have a trillion dollars of private capital. I don’t care if they are rude

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

This is why, during the time when MeToo had traction, I came to accept that the culture would be fine if we ostracized all the sexual abusers. Because it would open the world to all the brilliant women and girls who are now thwarted and driven away.

Relatedly I love how staunch pro-Palestinian GOAT Norman Finkelstein was invited to pedophile island by a colleague, and responded by saying Epstein should be strangled to death and CC'd this reply to his colleague's wife and daughter. Legend. 🔥

Holy fucking Jesus.
RGG Studio not only cast Kagawa despite his actions, they are specifically taking advantage of his image as a creep to sell the role.
Guess that’s that. #REMOVEKAGAWA

![A shot of Teruyuki Kagawa as Goh Hamazaki in Yakuza Kiwami 3 with his face mosaic blurred out, accompanied by an excerpt from a GAME Watch interview with Ryosuke Horii on 2026-02-05:
Horii: “Rikiya and Hamazaki are both key characters to the story, so it would certainly be safer not to recast them and avoid online criticism (laughs). But we felt there was no use being afraid. We based our decision on what excited us and made us think, ‘This is who we want to perform,’ or ‘What if we cast this person?’ […] Hamazaki is a sleazy, persistent, and militant yakuza, right? Since he isn’t an explosive character like Kanda, when we tried to think of someone who makes you go, ‘This guy’s a creep,’ naturally it was Kagawa-san. The biggest thing was just had to see that. Kagawa-san’s acting is fun to watch. Even when he’s chopping a pig’s feet off with a chef’s knife, it has a slimy feel.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:miwrulrgrudgnchcqgcpxgth/bafkreianho4oe2hx4rmjbrd65x22prtp53ol6fm5ljlqdnjmxkjx2bnpme@jpeg)

Really nuts how many men were like "Me Too went too far, and I need to email Jeffrey Epstein about it."

It feels worth saying that the thing that unifies men as disparate as Noam Chomsky, Deepak Chopra and Trump is patriarchy. Patriarchy, hatred of women, and the need to dominate them, persists across race and class status. Left movements refuse a robust analysis of persisting gender violence.
