When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

Something lost a bit in the amazing images released earlier: Vera Rubin Observatory is a steely-eyed asteroid hunter! It's already found thousands of new ones in just a few nights, and is predicted to find *3.7 MILLION* more.

THREE POINT SEVEN MILLION

Vera Rubin Observatory will find millions of asteroids. Millions.
That’s a lot of space rocks.

The Ku Klux Klan Acts (passed in 1870 & 1871 to protect 14th amend rights) were particularly focused on masked gunmen who violated the civil rights of Black people. We should remember this history when masked law enforcement ofcrs are deployed in our communities.

On National #IndigenousPeoplesDay we take time to honour and celebrate the history, languages, cultures, and contributions of all First Nations, Inuit, and Métis.

Today, and every day, we commit ourselves to the work still ahead on the road to reconciliation.

“There is a vast chasm between the concept of freedom inscribed on paper and the reality of freedom in our lives.” Revisit Jelani Cobb‘s piece, from 2020, on Juneteenth and the meaning of freedom.

Juneteenth is a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come—and how much further we still have to go.

It marks the moment freedom finally reached our people right here in Texas. Our people took what was withheld and built something powerful: resilience, pride, and a legacy we carry to this day. (1/2)

People get weird on social media because the system is weird. It's not just narcissism when people chase numbers, repost jokes, or track followers, it’s what the system trains you to care about. That’s not personality, that’s conditioning.
shit that always strikes me as obsessive on social media:
- "why don't you follow me/why have you unfollowed me?"
- reposting your own jokes like they matter
- giving a crap about "tweet theft" etc
- trying to do "numbers"
- strategically trying to build your "audience" (narcissist/grift alert)
posting should only ever be done for the love of the game, no point putting even one more minute of thought into it than necessary

That X thread is also ironically a really clear example of malinformation, as described in the very presentation they're referring to.

If the universe of space expands to a gluon dissolving tear, I wonder if the point of inertial finality antipodes the spark of its anti spin conglomeration, resulting in an antipolar increasing ramp of density.
