Thoughts are not my own: belong to mind control slug in my brain. Will do fantasy drafts for food. Dev.

Weird day in New York City. First there’s an earthquake just days before a total solar eclipse—then I walk outside and find this strange and unusual plant?

Christian Yelich and the Brewers not only taking the train, but also transferring (!) to get to Citi Field. Anti-car agenda thriving, thank you kings 🫡

Just a casual news article about how private insurance companies steal so much money that it’s about 5 times the value of all property crime in the U.S. combined according to FBI stats.

Orlando's a Jamaican H2A worker. He fought for the UFW at NYs Cahoon farm: Since we organized the boss has tried different ways to punish us. They laid off 40 of us, firing us by sending us into fields w/no apples & saying we didn't meet productivity standards. 1/3

Today in UFW history—March 10, 1968: Cesar Chavez ended his 25-day fast to rededicate the farm worker movement to nonviolence. Cesar said, “It is my deepest believe that only by giving our lives do we find life.” (Photo by George Ballis - Take Stock)

If your peer review system can't catch "the occupation of Hank Hill is unspecified," you need new referees

RT if you dislike genocide!

[Alec Karakatsanis @equalityAlec]

The idea that more immigration is a bad thing for people in the U.S. and that more militarization can “fix” that “problem” is such a widely held elite ideology that the New York Times presents it as a fact rather than as morally abhorrent and empirically disproven bigotry.

[Alec Karakatsanis @equalityAlec]

THREAD. In a reasonable society, this level of lawlessness and ignorance would be disqualifying for a "law enforcement" official. A high-ranking NYPD cop suggests--falsely--that the purpose of bail is to detain presumed innocent people and to punish them with "consequences."

[Ibram X. Kendi @ibramxk]

Instead of merely reading quotes from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. today, take some time to read a speech. In this time of war, I’d recommend MLK’s greatest anti-war speech, given at Riverside Church in New York City on April 4, 1967. It is subtitled, “A Time to Break Silence.” Dr. King courageously challenged U.S. foreign policy and called for a “cease-fire” in Vietnam. He could easily be giving this speech today, challenging U.S. foreign policy, calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. It is chilling, the relevance of this speech to our time. Here are some abridged passages. #MLK2024 #MLKDay #MLK
