Worth noting that in 1921, the American Yiddish-language press described the anti-Black Tulsa massacre as a “pogrom,” because they knew that was the word that would best make their immigrant Ashkenazi Jewish readers understand what happened. ingeveb.org/blog/the-mos...

What if -- here's a wild idea for you here -- the State did not execute human beings at all and these so-called pro-life monsters actually fought to preserve life, safety, care, and wholeness for all human beings?

day 377 of the millennial song wars opens with a burst of machine gun fire from the other side of no man's land. A trench spotter calls out: defector from an MGMT camp sighted fleeing in our direction. The lieutenant asks, Electric Feel or Kids? Response: the soldier wears the tattered olive gray uniform of a Kids-aligned faction. No quarter will be granted. We raise our rifles over the trench and sight our target.

Wow. Chaos on the Tennessee House floor. Tennesseans yelling in the gallery and Democrats locking arms in one final stand, as Republicans vote to advance new congressional maps that will carve up the state’s only majority-Black congressional district.

Ravenous @weareravenous.com · 06/05/2026
After many months of planning, meeting, writing, and learning a lot more about finance than any of us thought we would in our careers, and after April’s month-long subscriber drive that has brought so many of you to us, we have officially arrived at Day 1 of Ravenous. We have two stories for you.
A graphic with the headline: “This Is Day One of Ravenous” with a subhead that says, “We made it.” The background is a painting called Pronkstilleven by artist Adriaen van Utrecht, made in 1644. It shows a lavish banquet with lobster, fruit, ham, and more, with a monkey grabbing a berry.

The fact that I have heard so much more from groups like the ADL and AJC about Zohran Mamdani, who is not in any way antisemitic, than I have about Platner, who much more plausibly is, is also pretty revealing!

this line from alito’s opinion, that the question before the court was “whether compliance with the Voting Rights Act should be added to our very short list of compelling interests that can justify racial discrimination,” is truly orwellian

Jim Crow was in my dad's lifetime. Mass incarceration and the drug war continue in mine. The Interstate highway system and urban renewal destroyed -- and continues to destroy -- billions in heritable black wealth. And that's just the most prominent, state-endorsed, institutionalized stuff.

@yelix.bsky.social I'm hearing from sources that the upcoming game "Saros" was initially called "Samsung" but they forgot about the phone company. When they remembered they had to change it. Are you hearing anything similar?
