"If you start seeing people resigning or getting fired, or you start seeing stories that seem off...especially if it involves the left going too far on a topic Bari Weiss cares about, it’s worth asking yourself why that might be...”

John Oliver Warns Viewers to Keep a Close Eye on CBS News in Wake of “Alarming” Bari Weiss Hire

Twizzle, gardener's apprentice, at lunchtime. A once-adventurous half-man, now stranded in the Duchy of Nimm, halfway around the globe from his homeland.

Twizzle is a character in my ongoing rpg and fantasy novel WIP.

Twizzle, a halfling (called a half-man in this post), sits on a stone garden bench beneath a trellis. It is noon time. He is digging into peasant bread and a quarter-wheel of cheddar cheese for lunch. Twizzle is young, slender, and has waist-long blond hair tied back at his neck. He has a slightly freckled ruddy tan complexion. His clothes are brown trousers and dirt-smudged yellow tunic; he hold a sharp utility knife in his hand and has just cut some bread.

I am being reminded of so many things I could have included as touchstones of Portland culture!!! Zoobombing! The Velveteria! 24 Hour Church of Elvis! The Roxy!

What The Hell Is Going On, a thread:

I’ve seen some thinkpieces and posts about Portland protests that fail to understand the long-term hyperspecificity of Portland culture/humor, and frame it as a sort of shitposting meme-pilled ironic thing. Which is wrong.

So I’m gonna give you my breakdown.

🚨The absence of media coverage of this natural disaster in Alaska, the lost/missing people, and the destruction of the aftermath is up to us to share. Please help if you can - even if it is just spreading awareness. There is no FEMA going to help them. 1/2

Not that Dems shdn't do as you say. But no matter what Dems do, Trumpers will do that though. Bc Right Wing media lie for them 24/7/365, telling pretty lies about T/GOP & ugly lies about Dems.
The way to change that is to change media.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.
