I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.

Latest article for @ForeignAffairs The US can no longer be considered a friend of democracy, as such the existing democratic states need to think strategically about protecting themselves and even starting a fightback. There is no point in pretending everything will be ok.
“There is a seeming logic behind Trump’s decision to turn away from democratic states and toward dictatorial ones: a desire to establish three spheres of influence that encompass most of the world,” writes Phillips O’Brien.
How to Build a Post-American Liberal Order
The world’s democracies must work together—and constrain Washington.

"In a sworn deposition in 1989, Ivana Trump detailed her husband, enraged by a painful operation to remove a bald spot, violently assaulting & raping her. Ms Trump alleged the now-president ripped fistfuls of hair from her scalp during the attack"

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.

In a worldwide sex trafficking ring, little girls were sexually and emotionally abused and discarded by the richest, most powerful MEN on Earth, and the only one being punished for it is a WOMAN.

🧬 Glowing mice, no injections needed

A new study created the first mice that glow all on their own, no chemicals or injections required. By adding bacterial light-producing genes, these 'Lux mice' emit a soft glow, powered by their own cells.

Autonomous bioluminescence emission from transgenic mice
By insertion of six bacterial genes into the genome, autonomously glowing mice were generated.

With the tragedy in Texas it’s worth remembering that anti-environmentalism isn’t ignorance or a flaw, it’s the whole point. It’s key to the agenda lionesslair.substack.com/p/we-must-ho...
We must hold dearly to our sweet world
In a battle of cyborg vs nature, we must radically appreciate the gift of our humanness and the floating paradise in space we get to call home.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
