a heavily armed paramilitary force with legal immunity is occupying a city and going door to door kidnapping non-white adults and children in furtherance of an explicitly white nationalist political project

Enough is enough: ICE agents do not belong in our communities.

Black graphic that reads "ICE Out For Good". Underneath the text is an image of two signs reads "No ICE in our City" or "No ICE!" Underneath the images it reads "Take to the streets to protest ICE in our communities this weekend in over 1,000 rallies across the nation."

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

Mind-blowing science fact of the day: 800,000 years ago the ancestral species of modern humans almost went extinct. That species, our forefathers and foremothers, lived on Earth on the precipice of extinction for over 100,000 years.

If a military parade marches down a street and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead: House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

The brain drain will be when scientists are forced into other careers/jobs so that they can keep paying the bills. They will never return. There aren't enough science jobs in other countries to absorb even a fraction of those laid off.

This should be amplified across all media outlets. They have no understanding or care how much damage this bill will do if it does in fact become law. All the millionaires in congress cannot relate to 'food or meds', not to mention the loss of services. It is the Murder Bill.

Also one of the things about a lot of intersectional research is that it helps a large swath of people or provides insights abt a broader scope than the particular people/groups studied. The classic example I know of is disability studies where design for disability turns out to help the gen pop +

He stood there on Jan 20 and falsely mouthed the words to protect and defend our Constitution. Asked now on Meet the Press if he thinks he needs to uphold the Constitution, he says, “I don’t know.” Translation: No. Woe to America and the utter failure of putting this man back in our Oval Office.

Tonight the news about the disappearances to El Salvador prisons reminded me of the Holly Near song, Hay Una Mujer Desaparecida. “And the junta, and the junta knows And the junta knows where she is And the junta knows where they are hiding her, she's dying Hay una mujer desaparecida”

On my quest to read every book she ever wrote since discovering her last summer, I just finished reading another Ursula K Le Guin book! This was a short one, and is a very obvious allegory for the Vietnam war. Her writing was once again infectiously good, and the concepts in the book are amazing.

A photo of the cover of the book. It's yellow with a forest art piece on it.

Science in America: What’s Going On?

The White House is attacking American leadership in science because it can, because it wants to, and it won’t stop until the public, litigation, and elections force its hand.

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.
