Flyer for Queens Public Library’s Prom Attire Drive (Feb 23–Mar 20). Includes event info, donation locations, donation guidelines, and mentions a Prom Attire Shopping Event for teens. Text is colorful with purple accents.
FYI if you have formal prom attire.
Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/
EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints.
One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…
Seriously, get off of X. Don't post there and don't spend time there. You will get exposed to propaganda and bullshit that will nestle into the corners of your brain EVEN IF YOU KNOW IT'S BULLSHIT. Stay away.
How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States.

CW: transphobia.
See, this is why it can be painful to know too much history.🫤
This post implies that what is happening in Kansas is *similar* to what the nazis did.
But it's not just similar. It's *identical*.
In 1933, nazis revoked trans people's documents. Before 1938.
Paragraph 175 and 183.

As far as the Supreme Court is concerned, "lost mail" and "intentionally withheld mail" are basically the same thing for sovereign immunity purposes under the Federal Tort Claims Act
So if racists won't deliver your mail, you can't sue the govt for FTCA damages

And this is why every “moderate“ Democrat is in essence really a moderate authoritarian. They will continue to invest in a broken system as long as the rich and the white are at the top of the pyramid.
The only way out is revolutionary change.
omg yes, they're all good content

It's frustrating, since he can be such a good communicator and a pleasure to read. But I think this piece does a lot more harm than good
A real problem w/AI convos today is that they don't specify the stage of company under discussion (idea vs startup vs established vs behemoth) or the type and sector of company. Paul's piece fails to specify these things, to the point that his uses of "software" and "app" aren't meaningful
This is the political movement that convinced a non-trivial amount of Americans that they were going to “protect women’s sports.”
As powerful people fall, I hope the brave Epstein survivors are feeling some measure of relief
I also hope Trump in particular is experiencing real fear

Ah, got it. Tks
I strongly agree re women candidates. But what do you mean when you say "Harris did better than Biden"? I can't think of a stat where I understand that
slam dunk lawsuit
I did not expect a talk featuring Ronald McDonald milking a cow to make me gasp and cry, but it did, in just the best way ❤️
He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
The rigor the Dems are bringing to interrogating Bondi today? We need them to bring that same energy to dismantling DHS and abolishing ICE
