My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

Jim Crow 2.0 isn’t coming, it’s here. Yesterday, hundreds marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Alabama to continue the fight for voting rights that are under grave assault. The bridge isn’t just a symbol. It’s a call. Get on the bridge.

This “it’s not a war but a special military operation” is very Kremlin March 2022. As is the propaganda that we are not starting a war but ending one. As is the confusion of oligarch media as it tries to be faithful in the confusion…

Allies are aghast as US Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker fails even to show up at the NATO emergency meeting following the incursion over Poland. Guess he was too busy measuring men's urinals again.

You guys fucking cheered on Oct 7 thinking it would herald a new era for Palestinians. You thought it would mean a short war followed by negotiations, that Gazans would get a new life out of Israel’s bargaining for hostages. FAFO
