This 1980 piece by Roger Ebert on Dolly Parton on the 9 to 5 press tour is so good. www.rogerebert.com/interviews/d...

Dolly Parton: Gee, she's really nice
Update, 2008: This 1980 interview is all quite true, but it entirely misses something. It must have happened at a different time, and I can't track down the

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

@reprileyny.bsky.social Josh, have you tried to use your website to send an email? Needs fixing. Where is your statement about Trump stealing 1.8 billion dollars? There is no middle ground. There is no bipartisanship. Join the resistance or lose your seat. We didn't support you to watch you vanish.

The America I love is the one that welcomes Arthur Liu - a refugee from communist oppression - and his daughter becomes an Olympic gold medalist! I don't love the America that excludes people like him, or deports them back to their oppressors, as right now with many Cubans, Venezuelans, and others.

From a Comrade

One of the nuts things about organizing in the Twin
Cities right now is that even the most long term
organizers who've been here for decades can't keep
track of all the resistance that is going on. There are
so many self-organized crews just doing work that in
any conversation with someone from another
neighborhood you might stumble over a whole
collective of people resisting in ways you didn't think
of. There's a crew of carpenters just going around
fixing kicked-in doors. There are tow truck drivers
taking cars of detained people away for free. People
delivering food to families in hiding. So many local
rapid response groups that the number is uncertain
but somewhere between 80 and the low hundreds-
especially when one considers that several
immigrant communities have their own non-English
rapid response networks usually uncounted in the
main English-language directories. People standing
watch outside daycares and schools.
This whole resistance has so many poles of initiative
and leadership, so many layers of self-organization,
that it's extraordinarily difficult for the state to
repress or for opportunists be they Democrats or
movement-riding parties) to co-opt and control. Of
course, that's built up through many years and
decades of organization, and not only through
explicitiv political campaigns or formations built
during times of crisis and rupture like 2020. It is also
built through day-to-day mutual aid, culture building,
workplace and tenant organizing, and simple, basic
relationship building among neighbors and
coworkers here.From a Comrade

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Amazing that when Trump ranted on the campaign trail that drug addled immigrant were killers and thieves who were taking over the country it was reported as if he was saying that was a bad thing, not making a campaign promise to Elon.

Resolution to Establish a Mutual Defense Compact for the Universities of the Big Ten
Academic Alliance in Defense of Academic Freedom, Institutional Integrity, and the
Research Enterprise
Whereas, recent and escalating politically motivated actions by governmental bodies pose a
significant threat to the foundational principles of American higher education, including the
autonomy of university governance, the integrity of scientific research, and the protection of free
speech;
Whereas, the Trump administration and aligned political actors have signaled a willingness to
target individual institutions with legal, financial, and political incursion designed to undermine
their public mission, silence dissenting voices, and/or exert improper control over academic
inquiry;
Whereas, the Big Ten Academic Alliance represents not only athletic competition but also a
longstanding tradition of academic collaboration, research excellence, and commitment to
democratic values and shared governance;
Whereas, the Big Ten Academic Alliance includes 18 universities with thousands of instructors
serving over 600,000 students;
Whereas, the preservation of one institution’s integrity is the concern of all, and an infringement
against one member university of the Big Ten shall be considered an infringement against all;
Be it resolved that, the Rutgers University Senate urges the President of Rutgers University to
formally propose and help establish a Mutual Academic Defense Compact (MADC) among all
members of the Big Ten Academic Alliance;
Be it further resolved that, under this compact, all participating institutions shall commit
meaningful funding to a shared or distributed defense fund. This fund shall be used to provide
immediate and strategic support to any member institution under direct political or legal
infringement;
Be it further resolved that, participating institutions shall make available, at the request of the
institution under direct political infringement, the services of t…

Dear Secretary Rubio, Hi, Tufts professor here. As someone who was on campus during the time in question, your claims about what Rumeysa Ozturk did bear no resemblance to reality. So did you just revoke her visa because she co-authored an anodyne op-ed that never mentioned Hamas? Sincerely, DWD

Schumer thinks he still lives in a world where political moves now can affect political moves later. He doesn’t. We live in a world where a fucking loon is raping and destroying the country, and the only thing that matters is whether you vote “yes” or “no” on whether he should be allowed to do that.
