Some action items I want to take this year: -be more active in my community, joining the local library, clubs, etc -paying attention to government at the local level, i.e. attending township meetings -keeping my money local. Both where I do my spending and where I do my banking.

Graham Platner and Susan Collins in the same room in 2002, Collins cheering for war, Platner shouting at Bush, "Don't attack Iraq."

Bangor Daily News noted in 2002 that Graham Platner was kicked out of a Bush rally in Bangor for protesting the forthcoming Iraq War by yelling, "Don't attack Iraq," as he thanked grassroots activists. Found that moment during Bush's speech where you can audibly hear it.

In 1892, desperate for European culture, an American conservatory paid $$ for composer Antonin Dvorak, known for incorporating folk melodies into his work, to become director. He hears spirituals weekly and is struck by "Swing Low Sweet Chariot. " Then he tells a newspaper

Not to sound like a woke libtard SJW cultural marxist critical race theorist white genocider, but it is genuinely remarkable how, while never accounting for more than a quarter of the population, Black Americans invented pretty much every major genre of American popular music

Neurotypicals: “I forgot, sorry.” ADHDers: “I remembered it at 4am. I remembered it in the shower. I remembered it three separate times on Tuesday. And then, at the exact moment I needed it… it vanished. I’m really sorry.”

American activist Hannah Claire Smith, who was aboard a Global Sumud Flotilla vessel when Israeli forces illegally intercepted the convoy in international waters near Crete on Wednesday night, is calling on Americans and international audiences to demand the release of two of her colleagues abducted and transferred to Israeli custody. The two are Thiago de Avila, a Brazilian national, and Saif Abukeshek, a Spanish-Swedish national with Palestinian ID. Both were separated from other passengers and, according to their legal representatives, beaten, blindfolded, and held in isolation for days at sea before being transferred to an Israeli prison, where they remain in detention. More than 200 other participants were eventually released. Legal advocates say the seizure, which took place roughly 80 nautical miles west of Crete, far from Israeli waters, had no basis in international law. 🎥 via hannah.claire.smith (IG)

🔸New: Israeli Court Extends Detention of Abducted Flotilla Activists by Two Days An Israeli court in Ashkelon extended the detention of Global Sumud Flotilla activists Thiago de Avila and Saif Abukeshek until May 5, following their abduction by the Israeli navy in international waters on April 30, according to Adalah, the Palestinian legal rights organization representing them. The state sought a four-day extension, citing suspicions including assisting the enemy during wartime and membership in a “terrorist” organization. No formal charges have been filed. Adalah attorneys argued the entire proceeding is illegal, saying Israel has no jurisdiction over foreign nationals seized in international waters. Both men, who have testified to beatings, isolation, and blindfolding amounting to torture, are continuing their hunger strike. Source: Adalah 📸 By Yoav Etiel, Walla

You cannot understand the climate crisis if you don’t understand colonialism. You cannot understand colonialism if you don’t understand capitalism. Everything is connected. There is a subtle fabric of oppression that links every form of suffering around the world.

Beyond the arguments, it’s just really sad that most people in this country, from kids to adults, can’t and don’t read. Literacy is so essential to a dignified and intelligent life, and there used to be a national push for it not too long ago. And now it’s damn near gone.

Parenti talks about this in his famous “yellow” lecture. Denial of education and literacy is denial of a full existence, of dignity and opportunity, of one’s very humanity. The less you know about the world, and the less you can learn on your own, the easier you are to control.

Fascinating footage released by the IRGC of a class at the org's staff college in the 90s, where future IRGC leader Hossein Salami teaches a course on asymmetric warfare, teaching officers how to drag out a war with the US by driving up economic costs and political turmoil.

my most vivid middle school memory is when my history teacher told us she laid awake at night wondering how many great philosophers, mathematicians, writers, scientists, weren’t allowed to read or write due to the trans-atlantic slave trade

I haven't seen anyone tracking all of the alleged (or open) Trump corruption, self-dealing, and quid pro quos in one place. For the last 15 months, I've been tracking every single tip+story I can find and organizing it. Today, I published a 6,000 word piece with every example.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just kidnapped 2 high school students as they waited for their school bus. Max is 15. Israel is 18. They were standing outside their home in Mississippi, waiting for the bus like any normal morning, when unmarked cars pulled up, surrounded them, and agents zip-tied them in front of their family and classmates. These kids were in the U.S. on student visas. Their host family had legal guardianship paperwork signed by a judge… and ICE agents shrugged and said it “meant nothing.” That’s where we are… paperwork signed by a judge means nothing, and a bureaucratic technicality is enough to justify armed agents grabbing unaccompanied TEENAGERS off the street. Because that’s what this comes down to. A school transfer. Somewhere in that process, their visa status changed without them knowing, without their guardians being notified, and without any chance to fix it. In any system that respects due process, you get a notice, you get time to respond, you get a chance to correct the issue. This administration skipped all of that and went straight to detention. And then they separated them. A 15-year-old child taken away from his legal guardians, moved out of state, and for days, his family didn’t even know where he was. So, let’s be honest about what this administration is doing… They are creating a system where your legal status can disappear without warning, where you can be detained before you even know there’s a problem, and where families can be separated instantly with no transparency, and no accountability. That is a direct erosion of due process, and it should alarm anyone who understands what constitutional protections are supposed to mean. Two kids went outside to wait for the bus… and this administration decided to kidnap them.

A reminder that males, being simple creatures, and having developed as the secondary sex, are not meant to lead. They are bad at leading and dislike it. They are much happier in simple drone roles, following instructions. Patriarchy is a failed experiment.

Just remember it took Congress 5 months to agree to $600 stimulus checks for Americans, and 8 hours to send $13.6 billion to another country and give themselves a 21% pay raise.
