In December, I traveled to Montgomery to visit the Legacy Museum, which traces the story of Black America from slavery to Jim Crow to mass incarceration. I wanted to understand how the museum & its affiliated sites were operating in a moment where so much of the history they present is under attack.
The Power of Private Museums
The Equal Justice Initiative’s historical sites in Montgomery, Alabama, show what’s possible when history isn’t subject to federal funding cuts or executive orders.

Look, there are two things killing bookstores, and neither one is ebooks.
One is rent.
The other is *waves hands vaguely* everything costing too damn much.

i feel like the viral bus thread resonates because at every step of the way you're like "ok surely this will be resolved shortly, any second now," which seems like what all the passengers are also thinking. then the fact that the situation doesn't resolve and the bus just keeps going is an Allegory

As a social movements scholar, I absolutely love the diversity of tactics being developed by each city, reflecting their local flavor
Portland kept it weird with inflatable costumes
Chicago protected its street vendors by buying up their food each day
Charlotte chased ICE agents into the woods

Shirley Jackson was right. No live organism can exist sanely for long under conditions of absolute reality.

I obviously spend a lot of time looking at absurd examples of tracking that companies offer to consumers as a benefit, but this is next level. The “deal” is constant surveillance in return for a daily comic book summary of your experiences.

If I could RT this 20 million times it wouldn’t be enough. The consultant industrial complex largely composed of barnacles that hung onto Bill Clinton and Barack Obama is killing the party and America
i just cant tell you how important it is for democrats to bring some people on who understand how political media works in 2026
the problem is that the dem consulting industrialization complex is more about giving your friends jobs than winning elections

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.
This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.
