The gruesome discovery of 215 bodies buried in unmarked graves behind a jail outside of Jackson, Mississippi, has left a community in disbelief.

@IAmAmnaNawaz reports.

The irony of the Senate hearing a bill about the government interfering in a parent's right to parent after the legislature last year passed a bill overriding parents in terms of authorizing gender-affirming care for their minor children.

[Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com on Bsky @ErinInTheMorn]

Indiana has filed a bill to end ALL recognition of transgender people. It is one of several states to do so, perfectly mirroring Russia's 2020 law and Hungary's 2023.

I will also note, it updates the definition for gay marriage as well, in preparation for overturning Obergefell.

Saltburn was not what I had in mind when we said ‘eat the rich’

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Republicans will force a 10 year old to carry her rapist’s baby to term, let a 6 year old carry a gun, permit a 12 year old to work an 8 hour shift in a meat packing plant and allow a grown man to marry a 14 year old with a Judge’s consent, all while telling us that the reason they’re banning drag queens, gender affirming care and books about Rosa Parks is because they want to ‘protect our kids.’

Bullshit.

600 postcards from Fort Wayne citizens are presented to Senators Donato and Leising opposing HB 1608 by one Hoosier giving testimony today.

[acuriousmind @jrcolfer]

Today she’s brought childrens books where heterosexual characters fall in love with each other to illustrate the contradiction in HB 1608’s text which bans instruction of sexuality and gender.

[acuriousmind @jrcolfer]

It’s been almost 4 mos since @AndreaHunley_IN took office and began representing the district I live. Today is the first day I’ve gotten to see her in action and I feel lucky as hell that she’s in the Senate.

State Senator Donato thinks being called chocolate and using a different pronoun in school are equivalent.

[Kayla Dwyer @kayla_dwyer17]

The amendment also requires schools to notify parents of a requested name change regardless of whether it's inconsistent with their sex assigned at birth. For example, Donato said, someone wants to be called "chocolate."

Another episode of “How everything on this app originated with Black People” and “what most of what we know as Gen Z culture is just a whitewashed version of Black American culture.” I know that’s right honey! Let me get into this creator.

The shot I was hoping for, the show's director missed, but Getty's Kevin Winter got

[Bonnie Stiernberg @aahrealbonsters]

I gotta say, having Mark Wahlberg, who literally went to jail as a teen for committing a hate crime against a Vietnamese man, present an award to the cast of Everything Everywhere All At Once was certainly a choice

[acuriousmind @jrcolfer]

The new Ant Man is totally realistic except for the fact that Michelle Pfeiffer’s character had a sexual relationship with Bill Murray’s character and NOT Kang AKA Jonathan Majors while trapped in the Quantum realm for 30 yrs

[Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis @RevJacquiLewis]

President’s Day was created to honor a man who personally enslaved 577 people and took their teeth for his own mouth.

This country needs new foundations.

“ @MayorMemphis said on Thursday he supports Police Chief @1cjdcop‘s decision to reassign SCORPION Unit officers after she said Tuesday at @MEM_Council that at least 30 officers have been reassigned to other specialized units.”
