Wow! What sounded like the entire AEW Dynamite audience in Las Vegas tonight chanted "Fuck ICE! Fuck ICE!" in unison before the main event

Today is publication day! Wow. Thanks to everyone who preordered the book. I really appreciate it. If you have not preordered, then you can go to your local bookstore and pick up a copy.

Please send me a pic if you already have a copy or when you go pick it up! I'd love to see it!

Yes! Thank you! Wikipedia is a much more grassroots and less sanitized collection of information than most mediums.
One of the reasons why Elon Musk and other folks on the right want to shut down Wikipedia (or "compete" with it). It's a good platform for regular folks to accumulate data, even keep track of all of this administration's atrocities in real time. Great work
Even when there’s no accountability, the record matters. Credit to the Wikipedia editors maintaining this page.

All this impending snow.
Reminds me that now we enter into the 24th of 24 micro-seasons: “Greater Cold” #大寒 - the coldest period of the year. Yet also, a period anticipating the beginning of spring and the warmth of the coming lunar new year.

Wtf are we doing, Alabama? Whenever I have a sliver of hope for my home state, it goes and does this type of racist shit. Look, there are good folks in AL but some people are never going to change.

“Readers can see what they want in this book, as if it is a textual Rorschach test…equal parts memoir, journalist prose and history. It offers insights into elite Chinese politics, Communist history and the economic boom years of the 1980s and 1990s. It is also a book of enduring filial love.”

Having the World Cup and Olympics here under the Trump regime is really a recipe for disaster.

Again: why would any player or fan come here under these circumstances? Especially non-white people?

Expect more of this👇🏽

I keep saying it. But they’d rather just tweet.

Also, get the hell off Twitter. Tonight!
Every damn Democratic congressperson should be physically standing together on the steps of the Capitol and demanding an end to this deadly abuse. Are they really unable to fight back against this despicable propaganda used to justify the killing by ICE and supported by Noem and Trump?

Nixon insisted the bombing of Cambodia was just targeting Viet Cong outposts there and not meant to undermine its government, but the bombings destabilized the Lon Nol government and paved the way for the Khmer Rouge’s killing fields and the massacre of more than a million people.
NBC's sources said that "the potential mission in Mexico is not designed to undermine the Mexican government." But that's what it will do if the US is doing CIA drone strikes on Mexican soil over the objections of the president.

So many congrats, Austin! Excited to preorder a copy of this bad boy!
Spent the last month in a work sprint to get a bunch of stuff done before the new years. Then, on the day when I turn in my reviews, I get my author copies of Living in a DAISY Age! It's very, very surreal, but amazing, to hold a copy for the first time.
