This reminds me of a bit from James C. Scott's "Seeing Like a State" where he describes the customary property arrangements developed over generations by rural communities in Southeast Asia. I love it because it kind of shows how wherever you find human beings, you will also find Tree Law (1/ )

Intellectually I know that The Hague is a real place and things other than The International Criminal Court exist there. I was still not prepared to read the sentence: “Shrek Rave Is Coming To The Hague!”

You’re pushed on by numbers and punitive measures: pain, rejection, and unpaid bills. You can either play or you can crawl under a boat and waste away -- turn into salt or a flock of seagulls. Your enemies would love that. Or you can fight. The only way to load the dice is to keep on fighting.
In a less deranged version of our country, skies full of smoke would inspire us to bold climate action. There’s an American majority that loves blue skies & air we can breathe more than fossil fuel profits.
This was the only result at #Exoplanets6 that I saw get a spontaneous round of applause from the audience: THE FIRST ROCKY PLANET IN A HABITABLE ZONE* WITH EVIDENCE** OF AN ATMOSPHERE!!! *Of an M dwarf, which are the only such planets currently accessible **If it's real, its' a weird one!

It’s actually extraordinarily easy to *not* do this. I don’t do it every single day without really trying. It’s quite easy to get really good at not doing this.

Again, the follow up question to every statement from this administration should be "what the fuck are you talking about?"

Mainstream Respectable opinion is that people joking about a bad person's death represents a culture of cruelty, but really it represents a culture of impunity. It's a coping mechanism for watching someone do evil their whole life and never seeing consequences
i will say lindsey graham being asked by a reporter how mitch mcconnell is doing, answering “i don’t know, i’m going to check right now” and then dying is hilarious

Maine officials search the rocky beach for a new senate candidate. They find an unconscious man clad in tattered rags washed upon the shore. The sea provides for Maine, it always does
This is on Kennedy’s shoulders. The fact that doctors are giving such broad advice (second slide) is due to a broken federal public health system.
Reduced media attention does not mean a less extreme approach to deportations. DHS has reminded us of that in the worst way possible. The latest edition of Huddled Masses from @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social:
He Lived Here for 35 Years. Put Three Kids in College. ICE Killed Him.
Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was picking up a crew for a construction project when ICE shot him. It now claims he was the aggressor.

Few sports so regularly feature men and women at the highest level of competition who are so clearly unprepared to be doing what they're doing at a professional level. That always makes me shed a tear... then literally any one of them says anything about anything.

We desperately need to make legal accountability for ICE and their private sector collaborators a part of the conversation going into the midterms and beyond. We HAVE to make it clear to elected officials that the reason we put them in power is to show there are serious fucking consequences for this
