Awful. For years when police and media said “less/non lethal weapons” I’ve reminded folks of journalism student Victoria Snelgrove who Boston cops shot with a “crowd control projectile” in 2004 causing her to bleed out from her eye and brain. And now another journalist, one many of us know, will die

Hey remember when Utah launched a carelessly thrown together form to report trans people in public spaces?
New snitch line is up, but requires a Utah IP address to submit. Would be a real shame if a bunch of people used VPNs to fill it with useless data again.

Most NYers have no idea that libraries in the city have no more Sunday service and that libraries will close for another day if the current budget goes through. A 60 million cut to libraries while Adams proses a 200 million police "training" campus. Please connect the dots and REFUSE this bullshit.

They want someone else to do the killing, and all it takes is one person with easy access to guns to hear that call. So much right-wing anger directed at "elites" but instead they'll shoot up a school or a grocery store.

A few years ago I read a passing mention of the NCGOP expelling Black members around 1904, but it's been difficult to confirm details. Here's a chart from a recent paper that looked at census data to confirm the race of GOP convention delegates from former slave states.

The coverage of universities calling riot police on their students has been really feeble. One of the first questions I’d ask is, “did you have a statement prepared in the event you killed one of your students?”

i think the spread of news and images from gaza has led to the younger generation seeing less moral distance between, i.e., non-state terrorism and state violence. it's not that they're all embracing hamas - they are seeing mass state violence with a moral clarity that political elites don't
