“We’ve been asking this question, but now what are they doing illegal?” one Texas Department of Public Safety officer asked. “What?” asked another DPS officer. “What are they doing illegal now? What if this was after a game or something? This many people [are] out … after a basketball game. We do this after the Aggie games?” the first officer asked. “No,” the second officer replied. “All right, let’s shit or get off the pot,” a third officer said. “We’re going to do it so they won’t get agitated,” a fourth officer said.

BREAKING: Ten days before trial, all charges have been DROPPED against animal rescuers (Eva Hamer, Paul Darwin Picklesimer, and Wayne Hsiung) who saved three beagles from Ridglan Farms, a factory farm that breeds dogs for experimentation. This case has been pending for years and we believe this dismissal is coming after pressure and press coverage made it clear that there is public support for animal rescue. Unfortunately, the Dane County District Attorney’s office is still failing to prosecute Ridglan Farms for criminal animal cruelty. It is more important now than ever that we keep the pressure on to get justice for these animals. Stay tuned.

Writer Refaat Alareer was recently killed in Gaza.

And 'Amar Akbar Anthony' represents an India that is being destroyed.

Twitter thread in which the late Refaat Alareer says the following about the 1977 Bollywood movie "Amar Akbar Anthony": Amar Akbar Anthony is a favourite of mine. What a beautiful movie! I wish one day I could write about Bollywood's impact on the Palestinian first Intifada.
