Woah. A mother in Nashville just took over a live stream on Fox News to call out Republicans’ opposition to gun reform. (h/t @atrupar)

Aster overcame every obstacle put in her way to show up at our event in El Campo.
That’s what this campaign is about: doing everything necessary to show up for one another and for a future where every Texan is treated with dignity and respect.
Went to Iran as a tourist in 2015, have written abt the kindness of the ppl but I’ve never criticized the regime publicly bc I wanted to return safely. Happy to share this now because my travel wishes are nothing next to the liberation of the iranian people. #MahsaAmini #OpIran
For six years I avoided talking publicly about Iran, for fear of personal repercussions or repercussions on loved ones or colleagues. I hope that by talking publicly now about that time I can help in some small way. (1/25) #MahsaAmini #OpIran #مهسا_امینی
twitter warned me this is sensitive content - because Iranian women dancing in public is terrifying.
This is what civil disobedience looks like in an Islamic Republic.

For 43 years women in #Iran have been forbidden to dance & sing in public or show their hair & they are saying enough. It’s really that simple.

I think @BetoORourke has a real chance. 🤞
Once again, not even standing room left to see @BetoORourke today.
These are people from the Humble and Kingwood area (the reddest Republican parts).
Plenty of Republicans came out to listen and ask questions.

I suppose being outside the courtroom cheering for Johnny Depp is less morally grotesque than going to a fascist rally or something, but in terms of just being an absolutely pathetic loser, it’s hard to think of something really equivalent.

Defamation cases are being used to silence survivors from school age and beyond. 23% of student survivors are threatened with a defamation suit by their abuser.
The decision in the Amber Heard and Johnny Depp case will silence survivors, and that was always the goal. – at Washington, DC
Putin wil die in prison, list like Milosevic.
The siege of Sarajevo and the Bosnian War began 30 years ago today.
Our Balkan service, @RSE_Balkan, spoke to survivors of the siege who say they see the same evil repeating itself in Ukraine -- and want the world to do more to help.

Day 34 central #Kyiv update: many explosions in the distance, currently, and over the the last few hours. I think, more than at any time in the last few days.
Air raid siren is also on right now.
That's all.
Good night.

Day 33, Central #Kyiv update.
I give it a another week, max.
No, not the war, this will last for years. I mean the attention and interestingness of a massacre on European soil. Y'all got celebrity gossip to get back to, we get it.

Good morning from central #Kyiv, day 23 of the Russian war on Ukraine. Today, share your outrage. We are with you, we won't ever forget your support.
Stop buying @Nespresso, stop flying @emirates, don't shop at @DecathlonUK - they fund this Russian massacre.
