No kings. No tyrants. Not now. Not ever. 🕯️No more war. Color Block Jam is the best game, I really appreciate the occasional distraction.

The company erected a giant mirror on a mountain to demo their idea of satellite-mounted mirrors reflecting sunlight to earth. I believe the spirits of my ancestors are warning against this. They appeared to me in a dream last night.
An area of California desert was recently lit up at night, baffling locals. Turns out it was the latest step in a US startup's bid to put 50,000 satellites in space to reflect sunlight back to Earth at nighttime via giant mirrors. This quest has many critics. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I spoke to the mom of the 3-year-old soccer star who was left "thinking he did something wrong" after a league official called police "due to a disturbance between parents" The youth sports league said they launched a review and reached out to the family

“In a world with Donald Trump, be Ted Lasso.” 💕 Great line. I hope he is correct that many Republicans are quietly voting for Democratic candidates this cycle, but I wouldn’t sleep on it.
David Jolly: "The problem in this environment is not that I used to be a Republican. It's that Byron Donalds still is one."

I just want to name that people overcame this. Even against a stacked deck, the good fight is worth it. Win or lose, it's worth it. And sometimes the good guys win.
Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

FLORIDA — Insane: Winter Park police called on 3 year old for being too good at soccer because 5 year olds couldn’t get the ball from him. (H/T @the_public_defender2) More: blacksportsonline.com/2026/10/poli... Their TikTok account: www.tiktok.com/@nevadaney10...
Early voting today felt so grim. I can’t believe the amount of people still voting for Republicans - for this gruesome spectacle of ongoing cruelty and lawlessness.
Trump admin arrests Colorado priest. Incarcerates him for over a year. Judge orders him released without charges. They release him without the wheelchair he needs -- other prisoners have to bodily carry him out. He's now being tested for latent TB: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/colo...

"Trans people are a tiny group with no power" This isn't true, and I hope my trans readers can internalize this. You are more powerful than you think. Trans and gender expansive people are 2.34% of the US population in the latest survey. That is more than enough to swing a race.

46-year-old Luis Sandoval died while under ICE custody at the GEO Group-ran Folkston D. Ray ICE Processing Center in Folkston, Georgia, according to an ICE press release. This is at least the 30th ICE detention death we know of this year. You can read the details on my site: izzymirez.ghost.io

The second the Democratic party starts accepting sports bans, I promise you, it will go on to do worse. And in fact we are already seeing it, some of the candidates also are opposing "trans surgery for youth." That easily becomes blockers and hormones, bathrooms and schools.

The drop in smoking. When I was a child, EVERY adult smoked, and everywhere stank of cigarette smoke. Peoples clothes stank of it, their fingers stained with nicotine. Health related problems meant people died young. I never understood why it was supposed to be glamourous🤷♀️

Actually, positive change is slow, difficult and incremental by nature. Destroying is fast, building is slow. It is easy to bring misery to people - any idiot can do it, as Trump shows - but very hard to improve their conditions. Building a better society is slow, careful, patient work.

It turns out that choosing the lesser of two evils is, in fact, a moral imperative. And some folks want to wait for the Revolutionary Perfect, but I would equally challenge them to demonstrate a single time where a 'start from nothing, year-0' revolution has turned out well for most people.

Microsoft literally told fragile white guys to use AI to compete with Black co-workers.
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

I study relationships and brain development across the lifespan. In the movie they notice Invicta cries and fusses when Liz holds her. That's a sign of a preoccupied attachment-in-the-making. Liz should be able to soothe her, but just breastfeeds her to pacify her. She hardly truly pays attention.

I cannot emphasize enough how much anti-choice people side with rapists and wife beaters. Their whole movement is about subjugating women wholly to male violence.

My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...
