Amid one of the worst periods of mass displacement for Palestinians in our history, I wrote about structural oppression of Palestinian refugees for Health Education & Behavior.

The White House:
"For years, an Antifa-led hellfire has turned Portland into a wasteland of firebombs, beatings, and brazen attacks on federal officers and property — yet the Fake News remains in shameful denial about the Radical Left’s reign of terror."

The reign of terror:

Maybe look at helping them pick better community leaders, and tone down on the smugness over things that impact their ability to lead enjoyable lives so they become less likely to listen to hatemongers.

Don't debate or dismiss people's humanity.
Even if you don't like them.

Having grown up in a rural area, I can say with absolute certainty that people in Alabama didn't really give a shit about what Elon said.

They cared what their community leaders said, and that smug people from outside who talk down to them were going to be humbled.

This is a pretty good example of when you should actually talk to Trump voters, because these are people who got duped and may be open to learning how to avoid it again.

The smug "FAFO" & "tots and pears" just opens the door for portraying anti-Trump as callous haters.

It’s Baldwin’s own words! One of the insights of his that continue to guide me

Doing crowd work from notes. Pitiful

Honestly men who act like the one on the left should be bullied out of the hobby, or at least bullied into being better people

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.”

… but what is plenary authority?

For @aftermath.site, I wrote about the crucible of beating the Manbreaker in Baby Steps, a brutal challenge that the game actively tells you not to do. I am happy that I did it. aftermath.site/baby-steps-m...

I wrote a thing that is set in an imagined near-future where there is a tent city in Te Aro park. I would very much like sci-fi/speculative fiction/dystopic fiction to remain in any way fictional. I would like it if I imagined an awful thing and it didn't turn out to be not as awful as reality.

This post is getting shared a lot, but it's inaccurate. Bob Ross donated most of his paintings to PBS stations to use in pledge drives to raise money for stations, which is why the estate auctioning paintings now is so appropriate, because it's what he would have done to raise funds for PBS. 1/?

I'm going to delete my Bob Ross post to avoid my misremembered misinformation from making the 'rounds.

But I wanted you all to read and repost this instead.

the most delightful version of logging on to see what news you've missed

Stealing someone else's package is already a cunt move but I hope there is a special place in hell for whoever stole a package from my refugee neighbour.

Like at least steal from someone in a higher economic bracket and don't punch down like that.

I hear and see your concerns. Over the weekend, a couple users hosted on Blacksky's PDS were banned from the Bluesky app and thus the Bluesky API servers. This was a weakness of our system I've been aware of and hoped we had more time to address before any kind of public incident. 1/11

Because racism and violence is as American as apple pie. But if you blame the Russians for it you can absolve yourself of any responsibility....

I'm not saying the Nats are primarily dog whistling the 14 words here, I think they are primarily trying to trigger online libs by referencing the 14 words. It's not less disgusting though.

I def do not believe the person who wrote it is unaware, is what I'm saying.

This is a really excellent piece from Emily Writes, about genocide and incitement and political violence and victimhood.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Okay, same guy as earlier. It's a good cover, and i have a personal connection! This song was written by Merle Travis, one of the all-time great guitarists and also a distant relative of mine! (I think he was my great-grandpa's second cousin? Something like that.)
