It’s 2026. There is a measles outbreak in the prison for babies

Sincerely love that the chuds think this is all based on folks in Minnesota reading the works of Uncle Ho, rather than being built on the same social structures that organize the annual spaghetti fundraiser

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias has issued a warning about license plate tampering and has launched a reporting hotline to address the issue.

Whether it’s conservatives complaining about a redesign of Cracker Barrel’s across the country, or liberals complaining about President Trump bulldozing the East Wing of the White House, it’s clear both sides are engaged in a new political battleground over architecture and design

Nessel says state needs to prepare for National Guard troops The Michigan Attorney General says the state needs to get ready in case President Donald Trump tries to send national guard troops here. Colin Jackson has more.

Michiganders need to decide what they will do when the military is deployed in Michigan streets with the full throated support of fascists like @RepMattHall & @matthewmaddock.

@dananessel is preparing.

The cadence?

My first feature of the season for USCHO! We've moved away from weekly conference columns to free up writers to explore topics related to the conferences they cover. Big help from @b1ghockey.bsky.social, Notre Dame and Minnesota hockey.

I had to protect my Twitter account today. There are strange things afoot at my day job, so I locked it down. Fascism is real.

It's USCHO's 29th season and I began with them about two weeks after they started publishing, so I've been there since nearly the very beginning. It's my 30th season of covering college hockey overall, which is wild to me.

Can't wait to see what this season brings!

Hey, I know the world is dealing with big, serious issues right now, but I try to find joy where I can -- and writing this preview of Big Ten hockey (@b1ghockey.bsky.social) for USCHO brought me big joy.

My dream is for it to happen like it does to vampires.

When the leader kicks the bucket, the rest of them burst into flames.

These US military mobilizations combined w/federal law enforcement deployments in LA, now in DC, & potentially elsewhere aren't intended to fix anything. They're intended to normalize Trump & his team's authoritarianism & give Stephen Miller the tinglies. 15/

Fuck Putin -- and Trump.

I keep wondering how long my absolute raw anger can sustain me.

Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"

yet we can’t fund public schools

they fired people contributing to cancer research

Dipping in for a moment -- and I'm sorry good people that I'm not here more often. I've dialed it back on social media this summer because I reached a sort of personal bandwidth limit. Just needing to recharge for the months ahead. Love and light to all. ❤️

Those who don't contribute in any meaningful way sure do like to rail against the sick and the poor.

Boy, if only someone would have told Epstein everything was fake and a creation of Obama and the CIA and deep state, he wouldn’t have had to take his own life or have it taken by imaginary people

I'm not sure how bonbons were considered so good they got two bons

This Fourth of July, I’m celebrating the fact that this fledgling nation has put off tyrants before, and fought enemies both foreign and domestic.

They chose “fuck them poor people” w/ a big side of “especially the brown ones” as their policy. Masks off, cool. Now the job of every opposition-minded person in the USA is to make sure those affected understand & vote accordingly. Like their life depends on it. Winning comes down to COMMUNICATION

My current favorite quote: "That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."

That part about the consent of the governed is playing on a loop in my brain.

This is an absolute gift.
