All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.

Respect recognizes respect.

And to drive it home, in Goldilocks's song "I Know Things Now," she starts by talking about how nice the wolf was, then towards the end, says,
;And take extra care with strangers
Even flowers have their dangers
And though scary is exciting
Nice is different than good'

Stephen Sondheim is who introduced me to the concept of separating "nice" from actual impactful qualities in the song "The Last Midnight" from "Into the Woods:"
'You're so nice
You're not good, you're not bad
You're just nice
I'm not good, I'm not nice
I'm just right
I'm the witch
You're the world'

Kristi Noem has been a complete and total failure at her job. She has violated her oath and has allowed ICE agents to terrorize our communities.

That’s why I’m joining @robinkelly.house.gov in calling for her impeachment.

We deserve better, she’s gotta go.

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

The one on Samsung is just called "Hearing Test." It tests pure-form audiometry and speech intelligibility. Samsung also has native captioning on the screen for anything that produces sound, which I have loved for years. Videos, calls, music, audiobooks, everything.

Is the right wing still pissed at The Boys for being Woke after they self inserted as the villain? Anyway The Boys just named a goat Elon Musk and had a black woman explode it with her mind

In Nineteen Eighty Four all art for the "proles" is created without human intervention at all because they just feed a set number of scenarios and words into fiction machines and songwriting machines, which then create them and disperse them widely to keep the proles happy and FOR FUCK'S SAKE ORWELL

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."

Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.

Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.

We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

"the fossil fuel industry has a real interest in funding panic over transgender people: It distracts the public from the very real and ongoing risks that climate change creates.” 🤬

Kenya transgender rights victory hailed as African first QNews LGBTIQA+ News

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like

"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."

fuck yeah

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

I support the right of readers to give books they don't like low ratings but I honestly don't understand the "this is the fifth book I've read by [author] and I haven't liked any of them," sort of review, my sibling in Christ, stop reading that author, they're just not for you and will never be

In short, force them to try to rule by naked force because they *do not* have enough force and the very nakedness of it will mean they have less and less.

The Civil Rights movement overcame far more with far less, if we had a fraction of their courage, we'll win.

For these you'd have to fold them in the zucchini strips, but you could probably do a very similar arrangement in an onigiri mold. These were only about 1/2-3/4 inch thick so that they would cook all the way through

It really was! And not nearly as much trouble as it looks. I had some leftover filling, and just pan-fried that like a pancake and it was also delicious.

I've been following him for so long and am SO happy that he is finally getting more widespread attention. The way the stories call back to each other is just so well done.
