Does anyone know of an umbrella term for sci-fi aliens that resemble humans? I'm thinking of Marvel characters like Thor, Nebula, or Phastos. It's for a project related to race and Superheroes, and I was thinking of "para-human" (intentionally centering humanity) but I'm not sure.

Does anyone else feel like the reason the GOP has been so successful is that they are a largely Christian nationalist political party and Christian nationalism's defining feature is the eschewal of critical thinking writ large?

Instead of “Alligator Alcatraz” or “Alligator Auschwitz”, let me suggest that we call it simply the Dade-Collier Concentration Camp. Hang the name on Florida. Make them own this disgraceful moment in U.S. history. Make our grandchildren lobby to change the name of Dade County out of shame.

Mercy is what’s needed, fascism doesnt really support that..

Praying Compline tonight with about seventy kids from rising third graders to high school seniors, and when I asked them to offer prayers for the world, my heart broke. They're praying against WWIII. For protection from bullets in their schools. For everybody to be fed.

Today, I toured the Norwescap food bank in Phillipsburg, NJ where I met with food pantry clients and SNAP recipients. Speaking with them, I heard one thing time and time again: how the Republicans’ proposed cuts to SNAP would negatively impact their families and communities. (1/2)

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

Vice President Kamala Harris: “The fight for civil rights must be fought and won with each generation. Our freedoms will not be permanent unless we, in each generation, are vigilant to protect them. Let us stand together to honor our history, protect our liberty, & continue the fight for freedom.”

The proposed resolutions call for laws on gender, marriage and family based on what they say is the biblically stated order of divine creation. They also call for legislators to curtail sports betting and to support policies that promote childbearing. apnews.com/article/sout...

MADDOW: “What is this country going to allow him to do? This is an attempted authoritarian overthrow of the 🇺🇸 Constitution and Government… imposition of a dictatorial regime. The strength of the movement against him is what will determine our fate as a country.”

This is what truth sounds like

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Aside from the questionable conclusion of this answer, which is both stupid and dangerous, Mike Johnson was literally a constitutional lawyer before becoming a lawmaker.

Q: The president said that if he were Tom Homan he would arrest Gavin Newsom. Do you believe Newsom should face consequences in a legal way? MIKE JOHNSON: Um, that's not my lane. I'm not gonna give you legal analysis on whether Gavin Newsom should be arrested. But he ought to be tar and feathered.

For so fucking long that’s all I heard.. second amendment.. the right to fight back against exactly this.. bunch of punks

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

I know that I’m a Canadian and the ICE kidnappings are supposed to be “not my problem” because they are happening in another country but I could not help but cry when considering all the suffering.

I mean.. why not..

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"

An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house." The threat was greeted with extreme concern by civil liberties and digital privacy groups. It suggests the LAPD could be using facial recognition to identify and retaliate against protesters.

I'm grateful that if I post that Stephen Miller is a hateful dickbag on social media, no one can fire me from MSW Media because I own it. I might not be your cup of tea, but thanks to all who support independent media 💙🙏

Imagine, just imagine, the response from the West if the Iranian government, in international waters, had rammed and then boarded a European ship, filled with European citizens, and taken them captive. But it's Israel, so it's all good. Our citizens don't matter.

Newsom: I told the president, just get it over with. Arrest me. Move on. If you need someone’s head to scalp, then do it with me. But stop messing with these kids. Stop messing with four-year-olds. Kids in elementary school

People are going to die. Firing the experts and vowing to replace them with vaccine skeptics is dangerous. RFK Jr. must stop undermining America’s public health system and take our lives and our health seriously.

In an unprecedented move, US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. removed all 17 members of the CDC's expert panel of vaccine advisers, citing conflicts of interest. cnn.it/4mYohFy
