Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Trump is so strapped for cultural support he's shutting down the Kennedy Center out of embarrassment, meanwhile this is the Super Bowl halftime show performer at the Grammys.

Folks. They have not beaten us, not by a long shot.

I have this theory that there's a specific kind of famous guy that dresses like whatever year was the best ever in their lives and stick with it because all the best shit happened when they dressed like this and it's kind of like a lucky charm. Explains Trump

All four remaining fruit babies are doing brilliantly. Eating well, pooping properly, and not being too sick.

We did discover SO MANY ticks today though - apparently the ticks needed them to make some blood so they could eat it.

That concentration camp where they had Liam is still filled with kids and families. Every one of them is another Liam. They all must be freed, and ICE must be abolished.

Find your organizing home and get to work.

People say we can't compare this to the Third Reich because of the atrocities but we only found out about the atrocities after the fact when it was all said and done and we're not done with this yet so I am sure the worst stomach churning shit has yet to be revealed.
ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

It is slightly unsettling to receive an email addressed to "Dr. Ozment" from my senator when:
1. I called and didnt give a title
2. No govt docs I have or register for use said title
3. My job doesnt use my title

Normally I wouldnt mind. But we live in a dystopia and I teach women's studies.

1 February 1932 | A Dutch Jewish boy, Salomon Levie, was born in Meppel.

In October 1942 he was deported to #Auschwitz and, after selection, murdered in a gas chamber.

I also do not watch the Pitt (watched half the first episode, enough to know it rings true to reality), but also encourage you to watch.

Then go listen to some CORE Talks to hear what the research has to say: coretalks.org
