The Future Is NOW! Time for a fresh start. Let's shake things up - by injecting competence, intelligence, and energy into our politics. That's the only kind of 'disruption' I want to see these days. No more waiting for the "time to be right". The time is NOW!
New season of What Democracy Looks Like In... kicks off with South Korea! We talk self-immolation, eating strikes, incels, and the impact of conscription on voting. Plus they seem to impeach a LOT of presidents... open.spotify.com/episode/0maM7c… #Democracy #SouthKorea #vote #podcasts
Welcome back to the WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE IN Podcast! Part 1 of 2 episodes on India just uploaded today. #democracy #democracyinpodcast #politics democracyinpodcast.com/about/episode/…
Sometimes a crisis hits so hard that a country needs help from others to overcome it. That’s not one-way humanitarian saviourism, it’s international solidarity. 200 South African firefighters land in Edmonton, Canada to help fight the wildfire. Sound up 🔊
Really interesting thread about Kurt Cobain and morality-based attitudes to addiction. I did not know any of this before.
"The goal of addiction treatment should be to ensure wellness and safety, not abstinence from any and all substances — Kurt Cobain tried that, multiple times, and it failed him... America must stick to evidence with empathy, not demands of sobriety." inquirer.com/news/kurt-coba…
Some monster ran his car through a Food Not bombs meal. Two members are severely injured and one unhoused woman was killed. They're raising money to help with hospital bills. Give what you can. gofundme.com/f/fnb-reno-hos…
Which Buffy academic are you?

Our first issue of 2023 is out! Featuring 12 articles, a collection of responses to Gupta and Stoolman's "Decolonizing US Anthropology," several essays, and more! #anthrotwitter anthrosource.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/15481433/2…
The @washingtonpost just shut down its *amazing* Spanish language podcast @elpost, AND its Spanish language opinion section. What are these people thinking? The US is a multilingual country! We need journalism that reflects the citizenship.
On Feb. 6, the staff of Al Día, the Spanish-language pub at @dallasnews was told the team would be disbanded on March 1. The 5 staffers had no input. In a city and state where 40% of the population is Hispanic, a product that had original Spanish reporting is no more.
Look at this little sweetheart! What a miracle.
Miracles are repeated and voices embrace the sky again. Moments filled with joy as the child Karam was rescued from the ruins of a destroyed house in the village of Armanaz in the countryside of #Idlib, #Syria on the first day of the #earthquake.
Got through all 3 hrs of #Babylon. I guess it's still possible to make a non-ironic Nice Guy meets Manic Pixie Dream Girl movie in 2023. Huh. But it inspired me to reread @NinaRevoyr's beautiful 1920s Hollywood novel, The Age of Dreaming, so not all bad! ninarevoyr.com/the-age-of-dre…
More than half a million workers are on strike across the UK today, the biggest strike in a decade. Schools are closed, railroads are halted, and government offices are empty. The unions are striking for better pay with the cost of living soaring.
SPOT ON. Media, Democrats, human beings who aren't white supremacist fascists must read this: "Ron DeSantis is a racist and a singular threat to both multicultural democracy and America’s children."--@jordanzakarin open.substack.com/pub/progressre…
Before the Memphis Police Dept. releases the video of 5 MPD officers murdering #TyreNichols during a routine traffic stop, and that heinous video inevitably goes viral, I want to amplify THIS video of Tyre LIVING his best life. 🛹👑🙏🏿😔✊🏿 #JusticeForTyreNichols 🎥: Austin Dean
We mourn the loss of 7 farm workers in #HalfMoonBay. While we wait for more news, we dream of a nation in which our hearts have a moment to heal in between breaking. Our full statement: ufw.org/ufw-statement-…
If Republicans hadn’t spent nearly $2 trillion on the Trump tax cuts, and if they hadn’t made it easier for rich people to cheat on their taxes, the U.S. wouldn’t need a debt ceiling increase this year. Or next year.
turns out the internet is not to blame for incels after all.
proof that nothing ever changes! welsh poet dafydd ap gwilym wrote this poem 700 years ago complaining that none of the girls in his village wanted to sleep with him
