The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.

I am working with so many physical books these days and I honestly cannot get over how much better they are than ebooks. Convenience and searchability are nice features but there’s nothing like a words on paper book

I don't know what you're talking about, but way to go Hilary, telling Boebert to ***fuck off***

Operation Epstein Fury

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

After a US-Israeli strike on a girls’ elementary school in Minab, Iran, rescuers dug through the rubble for survivors. The death toll is still rising, with more than 80 confirmed dead so far.

Donald Trump does not care about civilians in the region or the safety of US Troops.

He’s illegally bypassing Congress and starting a war with Iran that has already killed dozens of children. This is unacceptable.

Congress must take action to rein in Trump and save lives.

Compare this with Schumer

It's always the rich, weaselly cowards that are most eager to send our children to war. #epsteinfiles

World War Epstein

A winning message

Just want to note that 3am in Washington is like 11:30am in Tehran. The American people are the ones he snuck up on in the dead of night to conduct this illegal attack, not the purported enemy.

It was a real privilege to do a deep dive into the history of Indigenous slavery, through a new digital archive called @natboundunbound.bsky.social. It felt like a really important topic to me, and a really important project. Thank you for reading and sharing!

Members of the Ottawa Senators Women’s Hockey Club are helping to raise money to bring Indigenous girls from Akwesasne, upstate New York, and Cornwall to the Ottawa Charge’s Indigenous Unity Night on March 4th.

The Mayor needs to level with us about MPD collaboration with ICE – and rescind the orders that continue to allow it.

It's just insane the degree to which the federal government has simply declared war on a U.S. state. A punitive war with no discernible objective other than to immiserate its people. bsky.app/profile/apne...

so fun fact: recently during the fraud investigations being redone by this season’s feds, MN’s rate of medicaid/medicare fraud was well below the national average

nationally, it’s ≈ 6% each year; in minnesota it’s like ≈ 2.5%

we know this is vindictive at this point

...a dish best served cold.

It was just a few years after I graduated from Harvard w/ a comp sci degree + having completed my pre-med coursework, that Summers made comments about innate differences & women's "reluctance to work long hours" that contribute to our underrepresentation in STEM.

The way this man uses the #SOTU to exploit people’s trauma could be studied.

Besides the hockey team, has anyone been invited/highlighted for something positive?
