What folks are getting a tough lesson in right now: Institutions are people. They are not abstract forces that exist as firewalls or safeguards. They are just people who play a role and who perhaps have abided by norms, but whose decisions minute to minute shape the role those institutions play.

Black history isn’t confined to a month—it’s woven into the fabric of American culture every single day. From music to movements, innovation to influence, Black contributions shape the world. Erasing a date on a calendar doesn’t erase history. It’s here. It’s now. It’s always.

Dear politicians: You sold us out to Zuckerberg & AIPAC for less than $10k/vote. Now we know the going vote price. So tell us—how big would the GoFundMe we start need to be for you to impeach Trump? Name your number.

Similar surveys have been done in the US in Canada. It seems like dumbing down the generations is really working to the advantage of the Nazis.

The number of people who think that the Nazis only put the Jews into concentration camps is alarming.

People mocked mail-order bride programs for years. Makes me wonder if anyone’s developed the reverse—Americans seeking international arrangements. Global dating, but make it… transactional.

I wish every Dem office would read this and internalize it. "The only sensible and dignified course of action is to accept that Republicans are in charge and to focus in on making their unpopular actions as painful as possible...The job of the opposition is quite literally to oppose. Get to it."

As fires continue to burn in LA County, and are erupting here in San Diego County, the Trump Administration is so focused on rewarding the oil & gas industry that they are denying the damage climate change is doing to our world.
On behalf of future generations that haven’t even been born yet, fuck the Trump Administration. 🖕

Donald and his billionaire buddies are just going to loot and pillage while the climate spirals.
Climate Change Will Accelerate During the Trump Years.
Trump and his billionaire buddies are hell-bent on cashing out while they destroy the climate.
