Seen at my train stop the morning.

Orange tile wall. Two blue signs. One reads "no smoking," the other "no loitering." A handwritten sticker is on the first sign. It reads "no one voted for Elon Musk."

If you're a journalist in the US and you're not speaking out against the ongoing killing of Palestinian journalists, at record levels, by a US-funded foreign military, then you should hang your head in shame.

Cancelled ours recently after switching to the commercial plan and learning not all titles are available on it. This makes me feel even better about the decision.

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

JD Vance claimed on X that “Slava Ukraini” protesters followed him & shouted at his daughter. Guess he didn’t realize it was caught on camera. No one yelled at his kid, and they didn’t follow them. Vance & Musk need to quit using children as shields. The public isn’t backing down—we want answers.

Tori Amos gave us new music last Friday. Ghost is giving us new music and Papa V tonight/tomorrow. Lady Gaga is giving us Mayhem & SNL this week. If Beyoncé or Depeche Mode dropped something this week, it would be too much. My head would explode from happiness and dancing. #ToriAmos #Ghost #LadyGaga

I'm at an Oscars party and don't know most of the people here. I cheered and clapped when this won, and no one else did. So, at the end of the speech, I cheered and clapped louder. #Oscars #FreePalestine

'Our horror is greater today than before,' says German foreign minister - @apnews.com

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said “a new era of nefariousness” had begun in the wake of Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy at the White House, but vowed that it would only increase her country’s commitment to Ukraine.

“Many of you will have slept fitfully tonight in the face of the unspeakable videos from the White House. Frankly, so did I. Unfortunately, this was not a bad dream, but a violent reality,” she told reporters on Saturday. “Our horror is greater today than before, but so is our commitment to the people of Ukraine, to our own security and to peace in Europe.”

She described Ukraine as “part of free and democratic Europe” and said there is no question as to who is the aggressor and who is “the brave defender” in the war.

I couldn't watch the Oval Office video. My anxiety wouldn't let me. But I just read the entire transcript, and it was even worse than I imagined. I had to take a break after the "offer some words of appreciation" drivel. What an embarrassing display from our so-called leaders. Just fucking awful.

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

The documentary mentioned in the start of the article. I remember sobbing when we watched it. So beautiful and powerful. A must watch for everyone. I was really rooting for it to win the Oscar that year (no offense to the lovely little octopus that won).
