Man comes to the US from Lebanon. Starts out delivering pizzas, becomes a Nobel winning neuroscientist. Trump freezes his funding, he gets an email from China offering to move his lab “any city, any university I want" with guaranteed funding for 20 years.

"They have borrowed directly from Nazi sources to make the very same points that the Nazis were making. They understand very well that the way to establish a form of government that is not bound by law or reason is to declare a state of emergency."
Beware Trump’s Talk of Coming “Emergencies”
Far-right rhetoric is suffused with dark talk of impending calamities. It’s a favorite trope of autocrats who are, themselves, the calamity.

As a kid, I always wondered why I was so obsessed Star Wars. I always wondered why it was so important.
As an adult, I get it now. Star Wars at its core is a story about fighting authoritarianism.

You don't know anyone but natural born American citizens, full stop. And if you're white and border patrol or ICE starts asking questions, you ask to see their warrant. Don't you do nazi shit.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Emails from the Democratic party and affiliates constantly barrage my inbox begging for money. Fuck ‘em. Until they have a plan, a united vision to defeat MAGA that doesn’t require a once in a century plague I’m not giving them even a penny. They need to unify behind a common progressive agenda.

Last night was the longest and darkness night of the year. The sun still came up in the morning. The nights will begin to shorten, the days will grow longer. In America we soon head into a dark four years but dawn will come again. Or so I tell myself. Lots of work to do but the dawn will come.

When you profit from denying aid to those less wealthy than you don’t expect to be mourned if one that’s suffered from your deprivations seeks vengeance.

Finished Rebel Girl, Kathleen Hanna’s autobiography last night. If you’re a fan of punk, want a look into Gen-X trauma, or just want to be inspired by a badass feminist punk rocker I highly suggest you add it to your reading list!

I’ve found playing an immortal demigod makes Crusader Kings 3 much more entertaining. My Swedish Empire has twice now defeated Christian crusades against the true reformed Asatru faith! It is kinda odd that my immortal character has suffered from cancer for nearly a century though.
