I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

There is a weird thing in the U.S. where a Democratic President has no power to do anything ever, while a Republican president has the power to do everything and change everything within the first 5 days of being in power.

Many Latino immigrants in Los Angeles worked to extinguish some of the fires with hoses. They aren't firefighters, they were just helping people in other neighborhoods.

Watching footage of Los Angeles on fire while charging a battery pack and buying bottled water in case the power grid fails in Texas again this weekend due to the cold.

The State of Utah banned the words diversity, equity, and inclusion but not the work of representation, accessibility, and belonging. People need to stop acting like their hands are tied. Get a thesaurus. 🙄

Authoritarians thrive on fear... do not spread misinformation.. do not obey in advance
Yesterday, a post went mega-viral on here claiming that the University of Texas was banning any classes that even mention a wide variety of terms related to diversity issues. No source was provided. It turned out not to be true and has now been deleted.

Folks, let's be careful here?

The mandate for academics in this moment is to 1) figure out how their knowledge and skills can be made useful and applicable to the movement to end colonial violence at home and abroad and 2) move as many resources out of the university as possible

We don’t credit people enough who have large capacities to be able to hold space for a lot of different people and problems all at once.

We call them our strong friends. The anchors. The pillars.

But lemme tell you, those folks - us. We need that same love too, we ain’t always strong. 🫂

Injured Palestinian journalist Fadi Al-Wahidi is battling death after being shot by Israeli forces. Despite his heroic coverage of one of this century’s gravest atrocities, mainstream media and journalists offer no solidarity or support. The world owes a debt to Palestinian journalists in Gaza.
