I’m careful when I use the word “astounded”. I think words like this are often overused to convey a faux shock at something that shouldn’t be shocking. I’m saying that understanding how some white Americans feel about property was truly difficult for me.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

It’s not the false equivalence that gets me though. It’s that to them it’s not that false. To a lot of Americans, property is life. It’s the foundation of their way of life. To destroy wealth is almost akin to attacking them physically. It took me a long time to understand that.

We’re seeing more pregnant patients with symptomatic COVID this month than at any other time in the pandemic. I *cannot stress enough* how important vaccination is for people who are pregnant, recently pregnant, or planning to be pregnant. Do it for your baby, do it for yourself.

Every day I’m astounded that white Americans equate the violence of right wing extremists murdering human beings with the occasional property damage that comes with civil unrest. It’s so wild.

This was an absolute joy and I’m so thrilled to have gotten to be a part of it. I think the best way for me to return to public life is while wearing a crushed velvet suit and talking about The Apple, so big thanks to @meakoopa. Also, a thread of Apple-related things!:

In Super Mario Odyssey, the entrance to the Odyssey uses a more complex darkness effect than other entrances. If Mario is precisely positioned as far as possible inside it without activating the loading zone, he will take on an unsettling appearance as the darkness subsumes him.

I'll keep saying it: defund the police is a great slogan. now everyone in America, from coast to coast - knows about defunding the police. whether or not they agree, that's different. but they know the question; should we divert money from the police to other things?

This is an excerpt from #MajidKhan’s statement as read at his sentencing hearing a couple weeks ago. I’m just wondering, @CIA, how many detainees were videotaped, and where Mr Khan’s tape wound up? Surely there’s no need to keep it under wraps now, right? (1/2)
