Every now and then someone on the left or within a minority liberation campaign comes up with the idea "what if we created a psyop/organised disinfo campaign for the left", and I am here to say that these are fundamentally the tools of the right. That specific kind of propaganda is anti liberty.

This is criminal and heartbreaking. We can’t forget about these poor souls who have unjustly been relegated to hell. Did you ever think the country you live in would be among those who disappear people?
MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️

They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador.

Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose.

No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

I did it. It takes just a few minutes. Do it. Be angry.
You have three days, starting today, to leave a public comment with the FDA about, say, why COVID-19 boosters should remain available to everyone and also free. "Individual consumer" is the category you most likely want (unless you are one of the other categories; if so, choose that).

Obviously I care deeply about all the research I've done been involved with and think it's all important and very valuable, but I did not think that, of the fields I've worked in, cancer research would be the first to be directly targeted by this administration.

Australia is way hotter than its neighbors- Papua New Guinea is closer to the equator but way cooler. Why? Maybe the lack of forest/bush?

One of my 70+ year old parents had cold symptoms last week. I asked if they had tested for COVID yet? They were like, it never even crossed my mind! 🤯

Damn, it’s still one of the 10 leading causes of death in the US! 🤐😷 (the test was negative, thank goodness)

New Zealand seems to have a preponderance of American brands - some that are totally gone in the US. Woolworths is one of the two main supermarket chains! Funny to see Circle K and Bed Bath & Beyond stores here, too.

I’ve been brutally culling my belongings for months now. Today I am very proud to have converted 3 hats into one. I leave the mainland tonight to do some island hopping. First stop: Honolulu.

Sure, the northern latitudes get aurora borealis. But Southern California gets the glorious sunsets.
