My big bike is the size of a small car. The red background of my selfie is not a political statement; I took it at a Target. My biking is for my personal mental and physical health; don't get bent out of shape over it.

Heinrich Himmler: "If we lose the war, the Allies will turn every committee of the occupation into an investigative body. They will go after the Reich leadership, the cabinet, the donors, and friends."

A Japanese fan broke down crying after his country's elimination, but a group of Brazilians fans went to console him and Mexican fans made him soar. You gotta love the World Cup! ❤️🌎⚽️ Video: RÉCORD

Trump wouldn't need immunity from his SCOTUS for criminal behavior it he weren't engaging in criminal behavior. Trump wouldn't need immunity from his DOJ for tax fraud it he weren't engaging in fraud. Trump wouldn't need Florida's AG Pam Bondi to ignore consumer fraud if he hadn't engaged in it.

I love this thread. The unseen part is what gives rise to those mushrooms, and while we cheer for the beautiful ones it’s the same thing with the toxic stuff. Very thinky thoughts here.

Occupy was messy, profligate, difficult. Imperfect is an understatement. The mushroom moments always are. The mushroom is extravagant, it produces millions or even billions of spores. A very few find footing. It feels wasteful. It is, in fact, necessary. And, in my humble opinion, beautiful.

Mycelial organizing is slow, it is quiet, it improves the environment beneath the surface but takes a long time to visibly impact the world above. It is efficient in its own way, but that efficiency rarely delivers sudden and dramatic environmental change.

I have been saying that these ICE thugs look and operate like nothing so much as the paramilitary death squads in the Southern Cone countries in the 1970s and 1980s, who disappeared people and adopted out their children, and HERE WE ARE. 🥚

this kid was spirited away to a "short-term residency program" owned by Bethany Christian Services, an evangelical adoption agency connected to Betsy DeVos

Despite my best efforts for several years certain folks in my life and profession won’t listen to me about leaving X. If you won’t listen to me even though I’m an expert on what that website used to be & what it is now, maybe for some reason you will listen to Ben, Ben isn’t me, maybe that helps lol

Can't fuckin' believe I'm doing this but here goes: Twitter is a mind prison, a true jail of career advancement. I stopped posting on there and within months I became the CEO of The Onion and I'm not kidding. Went back on last year, felt worse, then left again.
