Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
This happens in literature as well. They give us a token seat at the table (or in this case, a completely separate second-tier table) and expect us to pay up and be grateful for it. They insult us to our faces and take our money and our clout and our labor at the same time. Fcuk the Grammys. Go BTS

BTS are right: The Grammys' new Asian Pop category feels more like segregation than inclusion
The conversation began after the Recording Academy announced the Best Asian Pop Music Performance category, which will debut at the 69th Grammy Awards in 2027.

Tablo is such a supportive senior and friend to Bangtan.
“The looks honored South Korean soccer culture, with each member sporting shades of black, red, and white, the colors of the country’s national soccer team (and of the South Korean flag).”

“Both violent racism & non-violent racism are harmful to individuals. The proportion of racism that is violent racism tends to grow over time and across locations if & when the occurrence of non-violent racism becomes more accepted and normalized.” -Peter H. Huang, University of Colorado Law School
U.S. News Anchor 'Jokes' That BTS-Themed Cookies Spell Out "Death to America"
Because that's a completely normal reaction, right?

Even though this BTSxOREOS collab has absolutely nothing to do with me, the fact that it exists makes me feel 정 (jeong/jung) for this amazing group of Korean artists. They helped create a cookie that evokes all these memories of home for those of us who are no longer there.
Oreos, BTS, and Me

Bari Weiss not beating the bootlicking propagandist allegations here:

Satrapi’s obituary mentioned this Instagram tribute to her late husband, and as I couldn’t imagine it I went to look. And it broke my heart.
Her Le Monde obituary at least seems to be about her as a person and an artist. How lucky we were that she gave us what she could. www.lemonde.fr/en/obituarie...
Marjane Satrapi, author of 'Persepolis,' dies at 56
The French-Iranian artist and film director 'died of sadness a little over a year after the death of Mattias Ripa, her husband and the love of her life,' people close to her said.

I saw Marjane Satrapi speak about her work at Smith College 19 years ago, and she said something I have thought about and taught ever since when I teach comics. “I draw what I can’t write and I write what I can’t draw.“
Starbucks done EFFED up in Korea. Bad. May 18th just passed, Democratic Movement Day, when rose up after the military dictatorship sent tanks to mass-murder citizens. Some inappropriately call it "Tank Day." Starbucks commemorated Tank Day with a sale on tank tumblers. It gets much worse...
Suzanne Vega releases “Luka” 39 years ago this weekend. She said she once received a fan letter about it: “Dear Suzanne, Luka is the most compelling piece of music I’ve heard in a long time. There are no words 2 tell U all the things I feel when I hear it. I thank God 4 U, Prince”
In a historic moment, I was interviewed by fellow Black woman particle physicist Dr. Katrina Miller. Few people can understand my journey the way she does. We talked about my new book, why poetry matters, and yes, how the *fact* of non-trinary neutrinos challenges anti-trans rhetoric. #GiftLink

So sick of this anti-intellectual bullshit from Democrats and it’s WILDLY irresponsible in the middle of a full-on GOP war against colleges and universities But also so typical for Democrats to actually help the GOP with their stupid ass wars
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo agoObama: "What I'm more interested in for Democrats is, do you know how to just talk to regular people like we're not in a college seminar? Can you talk in plain English to folks? And not have a bunch of gobbledygook around it. Just talk like normal people talk. 'The rent is too high.'"
Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars. There's just gotta be a line somewhere. Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.
Thrilled that my first new short story in several years, "Constellations," about astronauts crashlanding on a distant planet, has been published by the @technologyreview.com. Acquiring editor Rachel Cortland. Art by Rogan Brown. Free link to avoid the paywall: ter.li/r3tbrsgr
remember when aaron swartz was convicted of 35 yrs in prison and $1M in fines for downloading JSTOR articles under a guest MIT email and the refusal on behalf of the prosecution to consider any type of agreement caused him to take his own life bc i do. all this information should be free.
So humbled to have @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's support. Together, we'll build a city & a country that puts working people first. Counting on you to help us compete with Goldman's massive personal wealth and super PAC money. Chip in before tonight's deadline: secure.actblue.com/donate/lande...
ARMY!!!! AAAARRRMMMYYYYYYY!!!!! APOBANGPO!!!!!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Pope Leo on Palm Sunday: “This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: ‘Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood’ (Is 1:15).”
Yoongi opening the Aliens stage on his own in the heart of Seoul with that historical backdrop and a sea of ARMYs and onlookers around him made me really emotional. He went through so much. This felt very powerful.
the arirang chant will remain one of my favorite things they've ever done
