As a high school teacher I'm trying my best where I can.

One thing that stuck with them so far (and for people out there, something to consider?):
-Have something to do (occupation/something in the everyday)
-Have something you like to do (hobby)
-Have something you're working on (project/dream)

"This architectural layout was emailed to us as maninhighcastle.mp3 and it was just Stephen Miller touching himself while reading from The Man in the High Castle."

"How do you know he was doing that, Anderson?"

"It was the first time he's ever sounded happy"

It seems to need to be said today: controlling who can give birt is eugenics.

Controlling who can live long enough to even think about reproducing is also eugenics.

A bunch of stuff people don't think of as eugenics is in fact eugenics.

We do A LOT of eugenics in the US.

I don't think we should let it go that the president posted a video of himself shitting diarrhea on us. It should be on his wikipedia page

To be clear: deportations to increase cultural homogeneity is the text book definition of ethnic cleansing. Demands that come even close to this are so far outside any democratic norm and the rule of law. What has happened to a country when this is not condemned in the strongest possible terms?

Next time someone tells you democrats are responsible for the shutdown, say the following in a calm, collected tone:

- Democrats are fighting for millions of Americans to not lose their healthcare

- Republicans are threatening to hurt more Americans if Democrats don’t cave

Enunciate the big words

Before it gets better, it gets worse. The more we stand up to them, the more they will punish. But we outnumber them. We hold the power. We're the consumers. They need us.

Remember this as they commit atrocities...and they will. It's not normal. Don't allow them to scare you into submission.

"Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, because my family and I were doing stuff and we didn't own slaves like Jefferson does"

jamelle @jamellebouie.net · 1d

learned recently that the guy who wrote "The Night Before Christmas," clement clarke moore, also wrote a takedown of thomas jefferson's proto-scientific racism in "Notes on the State of Virginia," basically accusing him and others of making it up to justify slavery. which, that's right.

The thing that makes Star Trek utopian isn’t the end of scarcity or the harmony between all peoples it’s also that the guy on the ship who gets laid the most plays the trombone at work and periodically does community theater

I feel like the inherently visual and not at all auditory print media doesn't lend itself well to a world about being quiet.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation.

But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop

Q: Why are my electricity bills going up?

A: You are likely (a) in a region impacted by Trump tariffs and retaliatory price hikes in electricity from Canada, or (b) in a region subsidizing billionaire-owned data farms for AI or crypto mining.

It’s not because of immigrants or drag queens.

Media outlets who refuse to describe in plain terms what the president did because they find it objectionable are lying to their audiences and running cover for the president. It's as simple as that.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.
