"Submittable is currently experiencing an intermittent issue which is impacting performance. We've identified the issue and anticipate being back to normal very soon. Thank you for your patience—we apologize for the inconvenience." What could be more obfuscatory?

Bravo, Glendale. Bravo.

More, please.

And it's time for Democrats to loudly say, "Abolish ICE." Someone please stand up and have a spine.

The MLA, the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS), and the American Historical Association (AHA) have filed a lawsuit in federal district court today, seeking to reverse the recent actions to devastate the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).
Who knows if it'll work?

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

This is the most dangerous move yet

The canary is gasping for air

We need an ACT-UP for breast cancer, writes Kaya Oakes:

"I write about cancer because I walked the streets with friends who had AIDS and they shouted until there were treatments, but because we have successfully gendered and pink-ified..."

🚨🚨🚨
The House Introduces Bill to Ban Abortion Nationwide.

Remember when Trump said he wasn’t going to implement a total abortion ban? Yeah, well here’s the bill proposing a nationwide abortion ban.

Just another egregious LIE to add to the long list of lies from this corrupt administration.

The problem with lauding Houston as a great place because it welcomes immigrants is half the story. Yes, it's great that it's welcoming, but the city was built on a swamp. There were floods early on & they continue. The swamp will reclaim the land, as fire has in LA.

Weird to write a piece highlighting pho kolaches as a symbol of why we should want more immigration and then logging in here to find a little firestorm of people who read a pull quote and are angry that I'm against pho kolaches and immigration.

Or I guess maybe just the Internet on an average day.
