The first time I listened to Castle by Halsey, I had an image in my head of a girl painting death on God and watching him crumble into flames. This is the book inspired by that vision. If you're into cunty religious angst and the occasional zombie, ARC sign-up is below

Two years of war and horror have left Sama'a exhausted and her family worn down. Even a small donation helps.

🚨 GEORGE GALLOWAY: "The massacre of 167 girls, aged 7 to 12, at a school in Iran is the greatest atrocity committed by the U.S. since the Vietnam War."

"It's the largest mass killing of schoolgirls ever recorded in world history."

i wish our politics was more "this guy wants to enact this public transportation plan vs this guy who wants to this public transportation plan" and not "this guy wants to ignore all actual problems vs this guy who wants to put you in a concentration camp."

The most disturbing part is knowing ICE left a little girl alone and didn’t care.

Annabella was six years old when her dad was detained by ICE while he was picking up their food order. She stayed inside, waiting.

He never returned to her that day.

Today we are launching a new intitative of Stand With Minnesota—KeepMNHoused.com, a rent-relief campaign backed with a $1.5 matching fund from the Wilson Foundation.

Thousands of MN families are at risk of eviction because of the ICE occupation’s lasting impacts. We can keep them housed.

Thousands of institutions abandoned programs, ended or rewrote scholarships, closed down clubs and publications, all in pre-emptive compliance.

And you know why?

Mostly because they wanted to do it if they thought they could blame someone else for it.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

I took a close look at the latest Department of Homeland Security AI use case inventory, which details over 200 applications across DHS component agencies, including CBP and ICE. DHS is rapidly deploying these tools in US cities, while increasingly engaging in violence and defying court orders.

One small thing you can do today: ICE is ramping up in Maine. Food For All is delivering meals to 300 families that can't leave their homes. They need $7k a day to continue operations. The Culture Study community is raising enough to cover a day—join us?
