THE PORN BAN GUY FROM TUMBLR IS GOING TO RUN THE WASHINGTON POST.
Look I've been pushing back on the idea that Bezos is intentionally sabotaging the paper but COME ON this is a man who thought he could just take the boobs and dicks off of *Tumblr.*

I got in SO MUCH trouble for this hugely viral tweet back in 2018 (from MAGA types mostly) but I stand by it (and in fact at the time the Auschwitz Museum defended me when people yelled at me that Auschwitz was a “death camp” not a concentration camp). My DENTIST congratulated me for this one

In the past week we've learned ICE has secured property to build human warehouses in Merrimack, NH and Williamsport, MD. Just some facts I think bear repeating.

a woman reached out to donate 500,000 delta skymiles to get people home to MN as they are released from custody in TX.
we're getting flights booked today. it should be enough to get at least 15 people home.
delta should be doing for free since they take ICE money.

Concentration camps by any other name are still camps.
BIG news from @bloomberg.com, which confirms that ICE has gone ahead and *purchased* multiple commercial warehouses with the aim of converting them into mass detention camps.
This is likely to be the big detention story of 2026 — literal warehousing of people.

I will go further and say that people using the "r"-word are hoping that bringing it back opens the door to bringing back the "n"-word, and is strongly correlated with the people who want to carve off trans rights as a stepping stone to claw back gay rights in general
I assume anyone who says this word is probably okay with the n-word, too. Or, more charitably, doesn’t understand why they shouldn’t say it just that saying it would get them in a lot of trouble.

Now that TikTok has changed ownership in the U.S., it's as good a time as ever to again say how much I truly hate algospeak euphemisms like "unalived" and whatnot. I wish people would knock that off.

Also, the arctic vortex wandering south like this IS an indicator of climate change, as it is due to the destabilization of the jet stream and oceanic currents.
Yes, it’s cold across part of the United States today.
This does *not* mean the global-scale patterns of long-term warming linked to climate change are not happening.
The United States covers only 1.8% of the planet. And a few days is only 0.03% of the 30 years we average for climate statistics.

Akemi-ya's in normal. Hole in the wall Japanese joint run by a little old lady. Their fish delivery came in on Weds, so half-priced sushi on Tuesdays.
My LARP group went every week. I switched between unagi rolls, teriyaki chicken bowls, korroke, and sometimes just plain rice and miso soup.
