I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

I feel bad for all of us who have to be good at our jobs when the answer is to be sufficiently white, rich and powerful and then you can just drool on yourself and the press will be like “audiences intrigued by his unusual communication style”

Our city has been over-run by Nazi ghouls kidnapping people to traffic them to concentration camps and other countries.
Did you ever think you'd see the day when masked gunmen jump out of moving vehicles and chase families down the street in your own neighborhood?

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

I seem upset, yes, because we now have ppl like Sam Moyn—who have been guffawing at antifascist researchers and obstructing their efforts for a decade—suddenly saying, "oh whoops." yes, oh whoops, shouldn't have facilitated all of this. shouldn't have appeased for so long.

Jayden Scott was a no-show at Jake Lang’s failed “crusade on Minneapolis” last weekend. Americans Against Islamification, which organized the event with Lang, later claimed on Facebook that six members of Lang’s entourage were injured at the event and that Scott was in “critical condition.”

"Jayden Scott reported to be in critical condition"

The critical condition:
In reality, Jayden Scott spent the weekend in a Michigan jail where he is serving a seven-day sentence for contempt in a child support case.

I don't ever want to hear any politician talk about "reforming" or "training" or fucking body cams for this evil agency.

Abolish it. Defund it. Destroy it and its works in their entirety.

New — I wrote about ChongLy Scott Thao, the elderly Hmong American wrongly arrested and forced out of his home by ICE in his underwear during the punishing Minnesota winter, what witnesses saw, and DHS's racist claim that he fit the description of another Asian man they were looking for.

This is a really important story, and one that explains the place of the Hmong community in the Twin Cities and why this entire occupation is really just ethnic cleansing (my words). Also, props to Marisa for doing the work to get this story right when so many out-of-town journalists have failed.

This is your reminder that Hungarian-Jewish scientist George de Hevesy dissolved two Nobel Prizes in aqua regia to keep them out of the hands of the Nazis.

He then left the dissolved solution on his shelf and fled to Sweden.

(After the war he un-dissolved the gold and the prizes were re-cast.)

Some people rather eat a bicycle tire between two fleece jackets and call it a burger than credit Black people for anything even when they stand on top of Black shoulders and squeeze out every ounce of semantics, style and even the scholarship on it from Black ppl to shape their own.
wp are so invested in mislabelling aave as "internet speak" or "gen z" because if they had to remove aave expressions from their own vocab they end up sounding antiquated, proving that Black language and culture had/has a crucial part in propelling the english language forward and shaping it.
