I've spent 18 hours mulling over what to say about the Nashville shooting as we waited for more information regarding the Nashville shooting. But, let me preface m y thoughts with this: I've never been so scared of what comes next. A 🧵1/n
“Voting as Fire Extinguisher,” @elguante
Hey, uh, cis people in my life: I'm going need y'all to spread the word that the hardcore Evangelical faction in the GOP in the US (and elsewhere) is making disconcertingly genocide-y noises about trans people, because the media sure as hell isn't. (I'm not kidding. Do this)
Watch every second of this.
Greg Abbot has officially directed Family and Protective Services to begin investigating all trans children in Texas and prosecuting their parents as child abusers. He has also instructed all teachers, doctors, and caregivers to begin reporting any trans students they see.
This is poised to be a troubling week in the trans justice context with really dangerous bills moving across the country. Here is what is happening and what you can do.
I am not the only one who is extremely tired of playing whack-a-mole with bad takes in response to abortion bans. So here: an incomplete list of arguments to avoid making when discussing abortion bans. 🧵
Education "ratings" are inherently biased against schools serving racially minoritized and economically marginalized students. A brief thread...
Oh my word, Stephanie Ruhle just eviscerated West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice over signing an anti-trans bill. This is masterful journalism. Nothing but facts.
Black girls deserve girlhood — uninterrupted. Black girls deserve to grow up and become women.
His hands were up. But even if they were down, #AdamToledo should be breathing right now. But again. buzzfeednews.com/article/skbaer…
This will be the best spent 3m 24sec of your day. Grab a cup of coffee, take a pause, and let this delightful girl tell you about herself.

Mourning DMX should mean acknowledging the ways we as a society have criminalized addiction. It means acknowledging how our language perpetuates stigmas towards people with substance use disorder. It means moving towards a more supportive world for people with addictions.
Just read, for the first time in my career, a collectively written and signed letter of recommendation and I guess the reason this isn't a thing is toxic individualism but now I've seen it I'm changed.
Being a Dem, a veteran & Josh Hawley, a 🪡🧵. 17 years ago today I was in my first serious combat. I was 20. All day I’ve been thinking about them walking into that ambush. About laying in a ditch as tracers crisscrossed overhead until the tanks came. 7 years ago 👇
Every so-called “four year” bachelor’s degree should grant an associate degree along the way. Educational disruptions are common. Some college no degree often means disaster. We can address that. This need not threaten community colleges. It helps everyone. #RealCollege
Since Proctorio is a key sponsor of the Online Teaching Conference this year, my colleague and friend @AlohaSargent and I are boycotting it. Below are the equity concerns of minoritized students...👇

Without protests, we would still live in a segregated country. Without protests, women would still be second class citizens. Without protests, the LGBTQ+ community would still be hiding their identities.
Having police violently break up protests and then calling them “violent protests” is an old trick that succeeds only when the press takes the bait which is what’s happening now
i love the police being shocked by gen z's conditioning. yeah bro i learned how to barricade a fucking classroom BEFORE i learned calculus. i wonder whose fault that was?

The LA Police Foundation sent a C&D letter to the seller of shirts that said "FUCK THE LAPD." The Foundation said it holds exclusive IP rights to the word "LAPD." The seller's response was succinct:

some examples of “non-students”: -faculty -journalists -students from other schools (esp in CUNY network) -alumni -supporters/observers (a common feature of pretty much every protest/picket line!) spreading these dumbass pie graphs without context/verification is irresponsible
A question Gallup asked in 1961, about what has been remembered as one of the most iconic and effective protest movements in American history.
Just so everyone is clear about what’s going on - yesterday, UCLA allowed nonviolent student protesters to be attacked & beaten for hours by pro-Israel mobs while police watched. Now that the pro-Israel thugs have left, LAPD are violently arresting the student protesters.
UCLA BREAKING 🚨 : CHP RIOT POLICE HAVE BROKEN THROUGH, POLICE HAVE BREACHED THE ENCAMPMENT. PEOPLE BEING DETAINED.
@Asmongold brother they didn't block students from going to class, they set up a peaceful encampment (i was there) to make perfectly reasonable demands about their tuition dollars being spent on a state currently slaughtering tens of thousands of children. the police response was violent.
