Mike Rogers has the audacity to lie to you about his plan like he didn't vote 4 times to stop you from getting cheaper medication from Canada, take $1M from Big Pharma, and vote 19 times to keep prescription drug prices higher. GTFOH.

One of the main reasons fraternities still exist is that membership signals to potential employers that you’re capable of keeping institutional secrets, even when it means covering up illegal behavior.

🏳️‍🌈 22 years ago today, Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon were the first of ~4,000 same-sex couples to get married in San Francisco. Del and Phyllis founded the Daughters of Bilitis (DOB)–the first lesbian organization in the United States–in the midst of the Lavender Scare, an era of pervasive homophobia.

Republicans redistricted to win five new seats in Texas. All five are projected to be between R+4 and R+8. To achieve this, they diluted their advantage in other districts. A 15-point swing in November wipes out Republican control of the state. A 30-point swing erases Republicans in Texas entirely.

Happy Black History Month from ASAN! Take some time this month to learn about Black history, especially Black disabled history that is often erased.
Black textured background. There are stripes of red, yellow, and green paint going across the page. Text reads: ASAN celebrates Black History Month. The ASAN logo is at the bottom.Black textured background with red, yellow, and green paint stripes in the top right corner. Text reads: What is Black History Month? Black History Month is a time to celebrate the history of Black people in the United States. Black people have many historical achievements that are often less recognized or celebrated. This month is meant to highlight and celebrate these achievements. 
Black History Month occurs every February. This month is a good time to learn about Black historical figures.
Black textured background with red, yellow, and green paint stripes in the bottom right corner. Text reads: Why is Black History Month important to ASAN? 
Black History Month is important to everybody. Everyone should learn about and celebrate Black history. 
Black disabled history is especially important to ASAN. Black disabled leaders have often been erased or ignored. Many disability rights leaders have been Black disabled people. Also, many well known Black historical leaders, such as Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth, were disabled. But their disabilities are often not mentioned or remembered.
Black textured background with red, yellow, and green paint stripes in the bottom left corner. Text reads: How do you celebrate Black History Month? 
Learn about Black history! 
Look for books, videos, or podcasts that focus on Black history. Spend some time this month learning about it and share what you learn with others!
Learn specifically about Black disabled history! 
Look into Black disabled people who have made big contributions to the disability rights movement. Here are a few disabled Black people to learn more about:
Fannie Lou Hamer — a polio survivor with physical disabilities who was a civil rights leader
Brad Lomax — a member of the Black Panther Party who was a leader in the 504 sit-ins
Lois Curtis — she was part of a landmark Supreme Court case that said disabled people have a right to live in the community
Happy Black History Month from ASAN!

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies. I have translated some of the highlights
A screenshot of Lala and Po from the teletubbies. The screenshot is clearly taken from someone's phone, as the borders of the tv can be seen, as well as glimpses into the apartment behind them. Po is in bed wrapped up in a blanket. The text below them reads "I know you were high at my mother-in-laws funeral..."More screenshots from the Teletubbies. Lala seems to be upset with a terrified Po. the text below reads "Did you kill the dog? Why would you do that?!"A third screenshot from the Teletubbies, this time the same scene as before. Po is wearing an apron while Lala seems to still be upset at him. The text below reads "You're nothing but a failure of a man."

Opinion: Hotels Have a Constitutional Right Not To House ICE Agents
The Third Amendment prohibits the government from forcing people to “quarter” troops. ICE is essentially a paramilitary force—so why would hotels let them stay?
