While I’m appreciative for those calling to remove this post, let’s be clear eyed. This new found bravery is due to Trump’s plummeting poll numbers, along with obvious signs of his health failing. He has become what he detests the most. Weak.

I don’t know how to process the horrific fire hose of tragedy that has been omnipresent but has spiked this weekend, and I suspect I’m not alone. We aren’t meant to carry this much suffering and be able to function at “normal” capacity. Be gentle with yourself and others, if you can.

Because it’s not getting reported on enough: Muslim fruit shop owner Ahmed al Ahmed, father of two, was the hero who bravely tackled one of the Bondi Beach shooters and took away his gun. He saved lives during a major terror attack. Say his name, and honor the lives of the victims of the shooters

Weird to go to bed reading about the Brown shooting. Waking up to news about the Bondi Beach shooting and to be heading to bed reading that Rob Reiner and his wife were apparently stabbed to death. I hope everyone affected finds some kind of peace. JFC

Learned today that “Galápagos” comes from a Spanish word for tortoise, meaning that “Galápagos Tortoise” is, in fact, a tortology

On the eve of the Sandy Hook anniversary, there has been another campus shooting. This time at Brown University. To the people in power: this is your legacy. Thirteen years. Thirteen years of dead children, traumatized students, shattered families — while you stall, deflect, and do nothing.

@diplomatofnight.com

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

I’ve been seeing this cover over and over and I just… In the original you’re aware of the horror of falling, but the body positions of the workers are solid on the beam. Here, most of them should be falling off, yet they don’t, because they live in an unreal, consequence-free space.

I guess it's fitting that it's a reimagined, worse version of someone else's artwork

He could state that it was Islam that moved him to protect human life and it would still not make any difference to the dominant political discourse

I'm betting that somehow Ahmed Al Ahmed's ethnicity will not become the basis for loads of sweeping conclusions about multiculturalism.

There’s a specific mechanism in authoritarian movements that we’re seeing play out in real-time across American media and tech. It’s a simple rule: "If we cannot co-opt it, we must destroy it." It is the logic of "scorched earth." It's the logic of the Nero Decree and it's happening right now. 🧵

@utopia-defer.red

I think it's really cool that we have democratic leadership that is largely silent about this issue. A leadership that believes making a "tsk tsk" press release once every month counts as a form of political opposition while otherwise dropping the issue in its entirety.
