I know everyone is talking about Matt Gaetz but please don't miss this: Georgia fired every single person on its maternal mortality review committee. Why? They didn't like that reporters found out that the state's ban killed two women propublica.org/article/georg…

A word Americans should know now more than ever: Kakistocracy- a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. Yes, there’s a word for it.

CNN host Dana Bash’s disbelief when confronted with facts about Israel’s policies raises a critical question: If you’re informing the public, Dana, shouldn’t you start by informing yourself? If not, you are just being a mouthpiece for the genocide in Gaza. Kudos to our members Liz and Clare for making this brave confrontation happen.

Sorry to burst your melting pot bubble, but if Arabic language songs, about peace no less, feel threatening to you - you might be a racist.

Back-to-back record breaking hurricanes, multiple towns wiped off the map, meteorologist crying on live television. The climate crisis isn’t a future generations problem, we passed the 1.5C of warming threshold last year. We’re in climate crisis is right now.
just watched an NBC meteorologist cry on air talking about how terrifying Hurricane Milton is & then the next thing I saw was a woman in the evacuation zone saying she has literally nowhere to go — all the hotels are booked & she doesn’t have a lot of money & has 4 dogs/6 kids.

What annoys me about YA obsessives is how they get super defensive while creating a false dichotomy where the only books are dense, highbrow Russian literature and novels meant for literal children Like, nobody would make fun of you if you just read popcorn fiction for adults

A journalist arrested for recording a protest. They even acknowledge he didn’t participate in the protest in any way. Fascism in response to anti-genocide protests.

“No, I don't mean love, when I say patriotism. I mean fear. The fear of the other. And its expressions are political, not poetical: hate, rivalry, aggression.” ― Ursula K. Le Guin, The Left Hand of Darkness
