This is exactly the article I needed today.
Éire go Brách 💚 saoirse do chách.
“Almost all the 165 people killed in the attack were girls aged between seven and 12, according to local officials. There were around 170 girls at the school in southern Iran’s Minab at the time.“
A double-tap strike on little girls at school.
Idk if I would use the word "new" here?
I just need someone with fire power to follow Trump's example.
It was a trick used by Christians to downplay women's power and the power of magic & prophecy in the late Middle Ages.
“man bad, we killed man, that makes us good” is real baby-brained stuff
Yes, but also how do you feel about polyamory, long distance lovers, and historians who care about environmental justice & Palestine? (shooting my own shot, not asking for a friend)
I see only a problem a wealth tax could solve
Are there charismatic communists available? Every communist I know is very much not charismatic, myself included. Is there a bat signal we can use?
"The contradiction is impossible to ignore. In the future The University of Texas at Austin is curating, Latinos are present as demographics—but absent as intellectual architects of the public good."

Settle in for story time, Bill spins us a true tale of yesteryear
Y'all know Camden is in Camden County, right? And Camden County is literally the Philly suburbs? Sure South Jersey is heavy on the republican, but Camden County as a while leans heavily blue.
Calling the requirement for a judicial warrant before entering a person’s home one of the Democrats’ “new restrictions on federal immigration agents” crosses the line into outright falsehood. It’s in the Bill of Rights! A rule as old as the republic.

A vibrant, wide-angle photo of a colorful outdoor mural promoting the "Super Bowl LX Apple Music Halftime Show." The mural is painted on a long blue wall in a sunlit, tropical setting with real palm trees and bright pink bougainvillea flowers cascading over the top. The artwork features a playful, surreal collage of cultural and football-themed elements: Central Text: The Apple Music logo in bold yellow and red 3D lettering is flanked by "SUPER BOWL LX" above and "HALFTIME SHOW" below. Iconic Imagery: Large illustrations of a golden trumpet, pink sunglasses, maracas, dominoes, and a cup of coffee with a musical note in the foam. Football Elements: Brown footballs are depicted growing on palm trees like coconuts and resting on the ground. Foreground: A young girl in a yellow dress walks along the sidewalk in front of the mural, passing a small goalpost illustration where a green parrot is perched. The overall aesthetic is warm, festive, and celebrates a fusion of Latin-inspired culture and American football.
I'm going to do a thread of all the references and context behind Bad Bunny's performance and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see this on the biggest stage.
The opening title screen is a street mural in Puerto Rico that comes to life with footballs as coconuts.

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.
“No matter how Ring and other surveillance tech companies may downplay it, there’s no world in which finding lost dogs is the final end-use for this technology.”
We definitely don’t have money for USAID, or to buy and stabilize American crop prices, but we certainly have money in the banana stand for a Gulag Archipelago.

"True affordability and support are not found in a voucher. It is found in a fully funded public school in every neighborhood. Gov. Pritzker — don’t let Illinois be sold on a program that leaves the majority of our children behind."
I tell you what, Ring figured out exactly how to weaponize white people’s empathy in service to a corporately controlled surveillance state.
Tell them it will find your dog.
We’re a few legislative sessions from these schools being targeted for closure imo
While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.
Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.
Dulé Hill is a fantastic suggestion. All three are, but I was not expecting him and I fully agree.
who called it Heated Rivalry and not Fuck Ice
The really appalling part is that the supposedly “originalist” justices on the Supreme court completely ignored both the text of the constitution and the history.
They stand exposed.
