No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

In the late 1980s, Israeli philosopher Yeshayahu Leibowitz made the controversial warning that the 1967 occupation risked turning Israelis into “Judeo-Nazis”

Former Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon tweeted “Leibowitz was right, & I was wrong”

It referred directly to professor Leibowitz's warnings

Whether due to corruption, incompetence or both, the U.S. government just circulated child sex abuse material.

These bastards released unredacted photos of fully nude children and their faces—multiple news outlets had to inform DOJ, who scrambled to remove them.

When the ghouls say we need to grow the economy before we can afford the basics for our people, remember that our economy has made our households - on AVERAGE - amongst the richest in the world. Our issue is not the size of the pie, it's the size of the slice that goes to the rentiers.

The President of the United States is up past midnight posting videos of Barack and Michelle Obama as monkeys.

Of course all Republicans will deny having seen it…but we can make sure everyone else is reminded about what a racist POS Trump is.

I had a dream last night that Trump died in a military style portable toilet with a gold star on the front and they flew it away by helicopter and all the news channels that showed it were like “his body is in there” as it flew across the sky, swinging around gently

so maybe it will happen today.

Yeah. I thought this in 2016. But it turns out the closest thing to “Them” that actually exists is the pedophile cabal that Donald Trump’s best friend ran, so…. Whoopsie fucking doodles.
i think there is a shared, cross generational belief that there is a “They” sitting in the background that will step in and prevent things from getting intolerably bad
