in your next zoom interview have not only a cup of ice coffee but seven or eight different cups of various beverages just off camera and casually drink from each of them throughout the interview the drinks should have fancy straws or colorful parasols or large pieces of fruit on the edge of the cup

We never punished the people who authorized torture and the last 20+ years of our politics are a consequence of that.

This whole “dog autism” discussion drives home: Autism is not an illness. We aren’t sick or dying. The disability is social, including economic: We can’t network, or get & keep a job. It’s a mismatch between our skills & what’s expected of us. It wouldn’t disable a dog, who’s “just here to vibe.”

I actually asked my vet about this--that is, I asked her why she thought someone would even care if their dogs had autism, and she looked me straight in the face, and said, I quote, "because people have lost their damn minds"

Understanding that fascists are serious—they genuinely want a world where anyone who isn't straight, cis, and white is dead, and are actively working to build that world—is what drove me to change my career from physics to journalism, and start investigating and exposing as many of them as I could.

I grew up in Kyiv, 10 mins away from Babi Yar. In 1941 Nazis told Jews to go to the ravine to check in and maybe get deported. September 29–30, 1941 almost 34,000 people were shot and dumped into the ravine instead.

Everybody, let's keep eyes on Memphis. Their occupation under ICE is flying too low under the national radar. ICE is actually killing people there & has the whole city under siege. And we're not seeing folks care about Memphis like other places.
