this narrative denies women agency, ignoring feminist methodology. Authors have found women’s participation in art making, such as Ginevra de Benci’s role in Leonardo’s portrait. Sofonisba subverted patriarchal norms, but we can trace her success without rehearsing a story of women’s disempowerment
🎨 Sofonisba Anguissola was a highly respected painter & teacher at a time when women were regarded as objects or madonnas to be represented in #art - not as artists themselves.

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

This is an assault on the Reconstruction Amendments by a Neo-Confederate Court wedded to the far-right argument that those amendments were illegitimate and destroyed the original intent of the Founders, which was to create a white man's country

The White House has already previewed their legal argument in the military deployment at the border context; they argue it's not a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act because the troops are not arresting the person, merely temporarily detaining them for local law enforcement to arrive.
BREAKING: US Marines deployed to Los Angeles have carried out the first known detention of a civilian, the US military confirms.
It was confirmed to Reuters after they shared this image with the US military.

he’ll probably get a Kennedy Center Honor for this alone
A Kid Rock quote I remember was him acting all aggrieved saying that he doesn’t date women like Beyoncé, he dates blondes with big boobs like Pam Anderson and first off I’m sure she’s waiting by the phone man lol, but also who the fuck is going up to Kid Rock demanding interracial relationships

I had been doubtful that we were going to have a "this is the crisis moment" with Trump, as opposed to "everything about this is a destructive catastrophe."
But the Abrego Garcia case is the crisis moment.
