It’s been a long day of bargaining with Vox Media, fighting hard to get a fair contract with better salaries, AI protections, the inclusion of the Dodo in our union, and much more. Come tomorrow, there’s only two days left in our contract — Vox Media, stop dragging your feet.

The relevance of this quote from almost 20 years ago, played as warning and cautionary tale (on one of the best TV shows most of you probably never saw) has felt more and more relevant these last few years and today more than ever.

Our response to the U.S. tariffs is to fight, protect, and to build. That means building the infrastructure to help diversify our trade partners, create good jobs, and grow our economy.

Zelda Williams (the daughter of the great Robin Williams) sure had a lot to say about the “Studio Ghibli style” AI images that have been trending recently.
I think those people should read these posts and really think about what they’re doing.

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

why is everyone picking on just Biden and Obama for not speaking out right now when literally ANYONE from EVERY prior administration should be raising the alarm about how improper all this is? Cabinet, Joint Chiefs, etc... they're all not meeting this moment.

White supremacists hiding the achievements of non-white people is a pretty good indication that they know white people aren’t supreme.

The fascism we are experiencing is an EMERGENCY. It needs to be responded to with lightening speed.
The courts are helping, but lightening speed is not their thing. They weren't designed for that.
So we all need to do more to respond. Get angry. Get organized. Get creative. Get vocal.

America could be executing people live on TV for the crime of criticizing Trump and all of the country would still say it’s “approaching fascism” and “dangerously close to a constitutional crisis.”

Canada issues new 5 year Canadian bonds $3.5 billion, but sold the bonds in US dollars. The bonds were 4 times oversubscribed, so there appears to be no lack of confidence in the Canadian economy.
That’s just the beginning.

I’m sick to death of people saying we’re “descending” into fascism. The fascism is ALREADY here. THIS IS WHAT IF FEELS LIKE.
And if you’re not feeling it, it’s probably because you’re one of the “good Germans.”

This is the law “best known for its role in Japanese internment” per the Brennan Center.
It just gets worse and worse, day by day.

“The Trump administration is expected to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a sweeping wartime authority, in the coming days.
The move is designed to speed up the president’s mass deportation pledge.”

Send an email to a writer or leave a comment on something of theirs you've read this week that's touched you in some way or made the weight of your world a little easier to bear. It's always worth doing, and makes both of your day a little better.

I was recently floored by a line of dialogue in a children’s book—“We don’t ignore bigotry, Jack. That’s how cowardly bigots turn into brave bigots”—if you were wondering why children’s books are important, and why there has been so much concerted effort to ban them.
