Thank you, Fran. For building something so special. For always speaking with moral clarity and genuine love. For doing, rather than talking. We love you.

The news that the ICE shooter in Maine is violent, dangerous, and a domestic abuser is a massive problem for Susan Collins. In early June, Collins voted against an amendment requiring ICE bodycams. Then she voted for $70 billion in ICE funding with zero guardrails. newrepublic.com/article/2133...

ICE brutally murdered Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a father of three Americans. Like they've claimed before, ICE alleged that he rammed his vehicle at them. And once again, witnesses and video evidence indicate that ICE lied. ICE's brutality must end. There must be accountability.

Trump could have multiple Supreme Court vacancies to fill in the next two years. If we don't replace Susan Collins in November, we could have an extremist Court locked in for a generation.

Science-fiction writer Octavia E. Butler was born #OTD in 1947. A multiple recipient of both the Hugo and Nebula awards, she became the first science-fiction writer to receive a MacArthur Fellowship (1995). #booksky #litsky #scifi #SpeculativeFiction
A color portrait of Octavia Estelle Butler (1947–2006), the visionary Black science fiction author and pioneer of Afrofuturism. She looks directly at the camera with a calm, deeply thoughtful, and serene expression. Resting her chin on her right hand, her fingers curl gently beneath her jaw. She wears thin, metal-framed glasses and a colorful, multi-patterned blazer featuring bold geometric blocks of red, yellow, purple, blue, and black. The foreground features a neatly arranged horizontal line of books facing forward. Prominently displayed are four teal spine copies of her acclaimed trilogy compilation, Lilith's Brood. To their left are other sci-fi and speculative titles, including Bitten and Catch the Lightning. The background is softly out of focus, revealing tall library bookshelves tightly packed with vibrant book spines. The vertical composition, rich colors, and academic setting create a warm, intellectual mood. This emphasizes her historical significance as a ground-breaking, award-winning literary figure.

Has any other prominent American politician flipped from being at least a nominal LGBTQ ally to an obstacle to progress in the last decade? We know why -- Susan Collins didn't actually care; her pro-LGBTQ posture was purely transactional -- but still, what a sordid, shameful journey. #MEpolitics
