Remember, if they make this law, most places online literally cannot afford to do ID verification themselves and will have to outsource it, and the dominant business in that field currently is the one that is connected to Epstien-business-partner-owned fascist-surveillance-corporation Palantir.

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.

β€œA DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credibleβ€”and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

Twenty percent of ppl with measles will end up hospitalized. And we have no treatment for it.

Get vaccinated if you're able. Make sure you've got some immunity if your doctor will run your titers. If you're unsure if you were vaccinated, or have an older vaxx consider getting a booster.

The mother is an asylum seeker. Her 7-year-old is deaf and didn’t have his hearing aids when he was detained.

An original Nashville sit-in member, along with Diane Nash, James Bevel, and John Lewis. Trained in non-violence by James Lawson. At age 21, he signed a will before the Freedom Rides, knowing he could die.

May his soul be at peace, and may we all have such courage in the face of oppression.

β€œAlmost all the 165 people killed in the attack were girls aged between seven and 12, according to local officials. There were around 170 girls at the school in southern Iran’s Minab at the time.β€œ

"Summers will continue to hold the title of president emeritus, and said he expects to continue pursuing his academic interests." -- The Boston Globe

powerful academics getting to retire after being linked to a child sex trafficer is not "accountability" or "facing consequences" or "a reckoning" or "justice" it's just them retiring. These institutions continue to beclown themselves. Divest.

I do think we’ve got a responsibility to really sit with the truth that some Trump administration things we’re horrified by were Obama administration things too, and we just didn’t listen.

If you're traveling to the US and using a credit card, consider paying cash when shopping with artists at events!! (Or, leaving a small tip, which can help us cover fees!)

Same here in Riverside Co. this morning. (I also didn't notice the doubling.)

Reminder for people who might forget: Ryan is one of the journalists who used a white supremacist as a source for that Mamdani college application story, without revealing that the source was a white supremacist, which is fucking relevant to the privacy breach in the story!!

#OnThisDay in 1942, FDR signed Executive Order 9066, setting in motion the expulsion of 110,000 Japanese Americans from the West Coast, first into temporary assembly centers and later to 10 inland prison camps in isolated areas of the country. historylink.org/File/310

Today is also the anniversary of FDR's signing of Executive Order 9066, which authorized the forced removal of 120,000 Japanese Americans from the West Coast.

February 19β€”not a great day in American history!

I feel like the first step of building something better and more equitable is to remove every decision maker that complied in advance (and honestly probably a lot more elsewhere). The same folks can’t be in charge again

I remain convinced that age-gating social media is largely an effort to keep kids straight, cis and apolitical.

If you’re a Washingtonian, call your legislator.

Here's a curious cougar for this #FurriendlyFriday. I studied a population of cougars between L.A. and San Diego for my PhD and will forever have a soft spot for these cats

Found an additional graphic that gets even more of these quotes together.

I've kept "I hate myself, I hate clover, and I hate bees" pinned above my desk since I first started studying evolutionary biology as an undergraduate. So relatable to get extremely frustrated with your study system.
