Yes, this has been driving me batshit for months. *Any* good faith observer should be able to identify Israel’s actions in Gaza as a gross injustice.

A system where mass murder via paperwork and policy is legal but existing while Black and homeless is punishable by vigilante killing should be abolished.

Your periodic reminder that your social media posts are and will be seen by American law enforcement. Don't create the evidence for your own trial.

Yes I will lose followers for this, I do every time. No I'm not a cop.

All of that tough talk by Mace and the police, and the protesters just got a ticket for obstructing public property like any other protest.

They are paper tigers and their threats are empty. Stand to to them. Courage is contagious.

I just found out that around 20% of the neanderthal genome still exists today in living people!!

No individual person has more than 3 or 4% but we don't all have the same bits. If you add up all the bits we've found, about a fifth of the Neanderthal genome is still present on earth today.

Students should study the humanities not because it makes them better workers but because it rips you open and breaks your brain and changes everything you thought you knew. I *promise* you this. I *promise* it has this ability, no matter how smart you think you are. I have seen it countless times.
Hearing the president of KU say that the way the humanities can protect itself - a question asked by a humanities professor of Spanish - is that her field should direct its public voice to how the Spanish language can impact AI versus the third study of an obscure play…. Just sigh.

NEW: Trans people centered themselves in a trans case before a very not trans court. Not only was Chase Strangio arguing Wednesday, but a trans plaintiff was in the courtroom, as were many other trans lawyers, journalists, and observers.

"Trans people were not hidden Wednesday, and that matters."

Let today’s Capitol Hill bathroom sit-in spark an era of radical defiance. Trans folks refuse to bow to hate and bigotry. We demand dignity and respect. We will fight like our ancestors. We are building with our elders and peers. And trans youth will inherit a better world.

I am such a believer in this. Down-ballot is the way.

It’s also how we build a sustainable future of good leaders and infrastructure to elect and support them, as well as the movements they represent.

We don’t just need strong candidates. We need strong organizers, managers, CoS, grassroots, etc.
I’ve been organizing in rural areas since the first Trump administration. Rural Dems can make the difference in races at the top of the ticket.

Republicans have all of the electorate they’re ever going to have. Organize to turn out 5% to 10% more Dems in rural spaces. Watch what happens…

Georgia and Syria are showing how it's done. Down with the tyrants and oligarchs.
It's gearing up to be an eventful weekend. Protests continue in Georgia, after the newly-installed government (believed to be responsible for electoral fraud in last month's elections) suspended the country's bid to join the EU. Riot cops are responding with force.
