In the eyes of Trump and his minions, this is all a video game and they're the only players that matter. You and I and all the rest of us are just NPCs who can be sacrificed with no consequence.

After the NCAA meeting at the White House, Condoleezza Rice is pulled aside by Donald Trump and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and walks back with them.
Will Ukraine ever forgive the US for betrayal?
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Me on dates: "Did you know medieval people bathed, vikings didn't have horns on their helmets, Hugo Boss didn't design the Nazi uniforms, the beaked plague doctor mask didn't exist during the Black Death, Moors didn't introduce soap to Europe, Napoleon didn't shoot the nose..."
"Stripping anonymity from the internet would constitute one of the most sweeping rollbacks of civil rights in recent history. It would allow for unprecedented levels of mass surveillance and censorship, endangering the most marginalized members of society."

I don't normally do posts like this, but I'm just so angry and depressed today because of the US starting a war with Iran. Yes, the leadership of Iran is horrific, and no democratic socialist would support them. But it's for the Iranian people to decide what happens to their country, and the US 🧵

I've been really enjoying this podcast series from Jad Abumrad about the life and music of Fela Kuti.
It's got everything: the birth of Afrobeat, his incredible revolutionary mother, post-colonial history of Nigeria, and the story of the movement he started. It's so fucking good.
