Sports gambling should be legal but you should have to go to an actual building to do it and it should be so off-putting and sad youβll never want to do it again

A screenshot of a YouTube thumbnail for a live stream titled "This Is Tthe City of Montebello City Council Meeting (3/11/26)
One of the peculiarities/inefficiencies of the YouTube algorithm is that once you watch one local legislative live stream, it starts suggesting local government live streams from all over
It's been a long time coming. Canadian independent bookstores have banded together to create an online book buying source so you can avoid the behemoth in the room. (Here are the titles published by CMU Press, which I run.)

Yes, I wouldnβt doubt that you could train AI to make plausible ersatz Cormac McCarthy that would fool most readers. But if you gave AI the sum of human literature up until McCarthyβs first novel, it would never spontaneously create his style.
Absolutely this.
White suburbs were created to shield white populations from the realities of the system they prop up.
This is why, among many other things, if you adopt a position anywhere to the left of Bill Clinton in suburbia you are automatically labeled a radical.

This sounds like an ad, but it's about murder.
really tired of conversations about how we need to get people to spend more time offline that don't acknowledge that one of the reasons people ARE online is their access needs aren't being met in physical spaces. This is especially true for queer people and disabled people.
I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to
Imagine being so correct, so beautiful and so eloquent
As we have said and continue to say: the absolute vibe-based public safety conversation is not going to change until we get serious about social change: library-specific deescalation work and broader social interventions around housing, youth engagement, safe consumption, and accessible healthcare.
Abortion is safe across body sizes, but some medical providers are still turning patients away for exceeding their self-imposed BMI limit. Fatphobia is everywhere and in everything.
IN THE FUTURE we will have equality and instead of female patients getting useless, condescending advice from physicians it will be male patients getting it and I think that's beautiful

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

βI miss my school and my friends I feel bad since when I came here to this Place, because I have been here too long,β wrote 9-year-old Susej, who said she had been held at Dilley detention center for more than 50 days.
A quilt in hues of lavender, green, and yellow. The design is a very traditionalist star block BUT the quilter has used color and negative space brilliantly to spell βlook close judge meβ within the patterns of the quilt.
Blue, red, and pink half-square triangle blocks in funky patterns on a cream background. βNobodyβs free until everybodyβs freeβ is appliquΓ©d in light blue across the face of the quilt.
Seeing some extremely cool photos coming out of this yearβs QuiltCon! Would have loved to see the Gees Bend special exhibit. Love Tara Evansβ βLook Close Judge Meβ and Maritza Sotoβs βNobodyβs Free Until Everybodyβs Free.β
Here's the thing I will continue saying every time this came up: Kamala Harris did not mention trans people in her campaign. She went out of her way to avoid it. She dodged every question on trans rights. And then she still lost. So what Newsom wants is *open hostility* to trans rights
Oh my god. In all the chaos today I forgot about Ian Mendes. He deserves a massive fucking bonus after this season π
I'm going to run circles around these new grads until I die.
thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her momβs kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol
when queer women speculate about a character being trans or gay weβre basically shitposting but cishet people will react like if they dont get in there and stop us right now weβre gonna call up the President of Earth and make him erase the concepts of heterosexuality and female friendship

So I'm an abolitionist & think we should work for a world without jails. When we point out elite impunity, the question is why ARE there jails if you don't have to go to them if you're rich & powerful, & they're just filled with people without resources.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say this happened partly because francophone Canadian journalists are still using Twitter like it's 2018.
The waiter: And what would you like today young man?

Parenting aside, Lwaxana is the character who most embodies IDIC! Infinite diversity! She celebrates difference and uniqueness and if people don't know that it's because they haven't watched DS9
Oh, the Freep story literally uses a photo of a pro Palestinian action on campus. This definitely will be fine.
