THIS THIS THIS
A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.

Another illegal kidnapping by the Trump admin by masked, plain clothes agents.

They’re terrorizing students to squash dissent because that’s what an authoritarian does.

Rumeysa is now in a detention center like Mahmoud Khalil—both political prisoners who must be released.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

So many myths about homelessness hide the very human stories of the incredible people enduring it. I hope folks will read the new book by @brian-goldstone.bsky.social, which gives voice to many of these souls and exposes our own complicity. Review here: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/26/b...
Book Review: ‘There Is No Place for Us,’ by Brian Goldstone
A new book by the journalist Brian Goldstone puts a spotlight on people who have jobs but no homes, whose struggles remain largely invisible.
