I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them
What a moment.

Dear Amazon or whoever: please pay Rosamund Pike her going rate to record the rest of the Wheel of Time books, thank you.

While you're at it, we could use about 5 more seasons of the show.

People act like I'm naïve when I say I don't think they're going to cancel elections, and like no. I'm not?

I'm grimly pragmatic about how hard they have been making it to vote this whole time. They are *so good* at voter suppression, a lot of folks have just had the luxury of ignoring it.

it took longer than expected but this did eventually get to Trump re: Elon! it has the added benefit of being even more true for Miller than it was for Musk
he’s the shadow president and we should start saying it loud enough that Trump becomes Shakespearean tragedy level convinced of the truth that Miller is usurping him

this is a nightmare fascist regime made up of the worst people alive but Miller is above all the driver of the worst of it and as long as he remains they will regroup and try again

he's enough of a Trump whisperer that his fall will likely never happen, but he's the key

Trump is nothing if not ready to sacrifice anyone and anything in order to save his own ass and the single most important thing that could happen right now is someone convincing him that the biggest driver of his unpopularity is not just Bovino and Noem but Stephen Miller personally
Feels like Trump is pretty much unconditionally surrendering as support collapses

Anyone can stand up, at any time, for what is right.
Today we said goodbye to Claudette Colvin, whose act of courage at age 15 was almost forgotten, but spurred Rosa Parks and one of the greatest movements for change. Claudette knew that injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. I was honored to speak at her funeral. RIP my friend, RIP.

i have been reading Tom Ricks’ “Fighting the Good War” which is a military analysis of the civil rights movement, and one thing that comes abundantly across is that movement leaders and ordinary people made it a practice to refuse to fall into despair and cynicism.

You have to block them immediately. The full nuclear. They are only here to make folks angry, and that can’t happen if we lock them out.

No, Amazon Studios, you left something unfinished.

Pick it back up where you paused.
Start Season 4 of The Wheel of Time.

The audience is still here. Waiting.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

The fact that The Wheel of Time doesn't have as much of a following as Game of Thrones used to have in it's prime is baffling to me. This series is genuinely amazing.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face.

If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.
