Well holy fucking shit. Ring cancelled their partnership with Flock. Keep pressure on them to stop volunteering their feeds to state, local, and federal agencies, though, because that part's still going.

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

I’m currently sending $25/mo to @rude1.blacksky.team and the whole #BlackSky team. That’s $300/yr. I’ll double it to $50/mo if we can get an additional $500 of monthly donations - that’s 50 of you supporting at $10/mo, 10 at $50, et al.

Let’s go!!!

Which politicians are benefitting from the ICE concentration camp system?
In 2025, GEO Group and CoreCivic​’s ICE contracts are expected to generate over one billion dollars in revenue for each company.

Executive leaders at the helm of prison companies are delighted.

Did your congressional representative receive a donation?

it's not just that Mamdani is charming af (he is), it's that he is normalizing the idea that children are full members of society that we all share a collective responsibility for

"Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.

Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake."

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Note to Self:

It's not failure to take a step back in hard times. OK you've been working on your business, you got big dreams. And that is wonderful.

But sometimes the situation calls for you to fall back on what you know works. Just know hard times don't last always.

"we don't know exactly how ICE will use this warehouse but we know enough."
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Are you ready to find what you are seeking?

When you call out for enlightenment, do you really want to know what it's like to be set on fire?

One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office.

Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

Dream girl
What do you see
Are you dreaming your way through life
just to escape reality

Or did you chant your way
Into a trance
To put things seen and unseen
Back into balance

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home.

Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

Audre Lorde, in a 1989 commencement address, said, "Remember this, despair is a tool of your enemies. That rumor, 'You can’t fight City Hall,' is circulated by City Hall. Facing the realities of our lives gives us the motivation for action, it gives us the power to change. You are not powerless."
