Friendly reminder that charter schools only exist to operate for profit and eliminate their accountability to any form of educational standards they didn’t set for themselves, while also siphoning tax revenue generated by families to rob both homeowners and their children’s future en masse.

I'm all for transparency, but the end goal here is forcing charter schools on people who cannot afford charter schools

My deep-red #MAGA Trump/McConnell voting county has posted this on the county school system's landing page. Yes, our public schools are really struggling--we homeschool--but this is dirty pool. These schools suck by design because MAGA wants them to suck. MAGA hates #publicschools & #education

In my opinion it’s time to retire the Nobel prizes for fields where most of the important discoveries have already been made, like physics, and add prizes for newer fields where substantial innovations occur every year, like speedrunning

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

TRON [1982]
Not only the visual and SFX were way ahead of its time, but legends of art & illustration worked on it. Here some concept art from Syd Mead and Moebius and some behind the scene photos of Jeff Bridges & Cindy Morgan in costume.

Fern studies the blade.

Fiddlehead Fern, a comic about a mouse (Niko), a gnome girl (Fern), and a talking rock (Rocky).
Panel 1:
Niko is training with a sword fashioned from a tapestry needle. Fern and Rocky arrive with sticks.
Fern: Niko! Niko! Teach us how to fight! Please!
Rocky: We want to be knights!
Panel 2:
Niko: I'll teach you, but it's no game. I know how to fight because I was born in a community deep, deep in Fiddlehead Forest. The burrow where I lived had succumbed long ago to a culture of fear, hatred and violence.
Panel 3:
Niko experimentally swings the needle.
Niko: I train with the blade to keep my new life safe. I live in fear that one day, the demons from my past will return. If they find me, WHEN they find me, I want to at least be able to put up a fight. It still might not be enough.
Panel 4:
Niko: Do you understand the gravity of the situation?
Fern (through tears): I'm so bored I'm gonna die!
Rocky (upset): Wait, what does "violins" mean?

If you can't come out right now, please don't hate yourself.
One day, the meaning of labels will disappear.

Please love yourself as you are.
The one who can cherish yourself the most is yourself.
Because that is your strength and beauty.
Chiitan loves you

This whole series has been great, and genuinely moving, despite (or because of) being polished campaign video.

It is so rare to see those techniques—with that *surety*—used to say things like this, from positions like this, with a platform like this. No hedging, here.

Makes me want to do the work

They're talking about killing leftist activists. They're talking about murdering people organizing in defense of immigrant communities, doing mutual aid work, and protesting their violence. They are talking about murdering people like me and my friends. We must do more than acknowledge it's fascism.

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

My son has been severely malnourished for three months, with digestive and immune system problems. Even after milk and food entered Gaza a week ago, he refuses to accept anything and is on intravenous drip. Help me treat him and be generous.
