This is terrorism. They are undoubtedly sending a message to everyone watching that they’re willing to destroy property with a tank rather than find a way to make housing more affordable for those most in need. They want anyone sympathetic with the moms to see this and be afraid.

Did you know the Alameda County Sherrif’s office has a tank and soldiers with AR-15s? They’re out here evicting and arresting the @moms4housing@twitter.com at 5am. There is nothing happening at 2928 Magnolia St that justifies this level of force.

The night before he was assassinated.
Assassinated. Many wish “Happy Birthday” to a man today that they would have hated then. The authentic, comprehensive King makes power uneasy & privilege unhinged. Never forget: He’s not here to hear “Happy Birthday” because he was murdered.

I will happily vote for Bernie in the general election if he gets the nod; I hope you will do the same for Warren if she does. We can't let perfect be the enemy of progress, here.
No matter who challenges in the general election, the candidate will need ALL OF US to win.
I really want to see whatever beef there is between the candidates squashed. We, their supporters, could take the lead here: we could use this as an opportunity to come together instead of come apart. We could embody what it means to progress as a united front. <3
To Bernie supporters: I consider you my ally, and I think your candidate and Sen. Warren both have the same goals and many of the same priorities. Just think of what we could do if we stuck together instead of forcing a wedge between us? WE'D BE UNSTOPPABLE
Also, this. Watching that moment was unreal

I don't know if Bernie said the Thing! But to listen to his answer last night and then pose a question to Warren which basically called him a liar to his face was extremely unprofessional of the moderator, who also does not know if Bernie said the Thing.

Honestly, the toxicity of Bernie’s supporters is what caused me to back off on him in 2016. It sucks that this kind of behavior is repeating itself. I don’t think Bernie would approve of the shit being slung in his name.

Some of you Bernie supporters do quite the disservice to your candidate, who seems to be a great human being. Try not to drive people away with your nastiness. I will happily vote for him if he wins the primary. Chill

This is literally what it's like to be a POC.
This is what we have to listen to when we try to make our own space.
We aren't saying your not invited, but you need to respect what is OURS.

Finally, I can be public about it!
We are adapting Binti into a TV series at @hulu@twitter.com. I’m co-writing the pilot with @StacyAmma@twitter.com (HBO's Watchmen). #Africanfuturism #Binti 🌍🚀 https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/binti-adaptation-michael-ellenberg-works-at-hulu-1269204

And they start look a lot less like harmless riffing on a shrewish emotional or financial drain and a lot more like men attempting to isolate young women from the women best positioned to guard them from sexually possessive and controlling men.

Man, mother-in-law jokes as were super common in old tv and movies are a LOT more sinister when you take into account the gender dynamics of the 50s and 60s.
It's always the HUSBAND'S mother-in-law who is for some reason terrible and hated.

Imagine walking around, doing normal, everyday things, when suddenly WHOOSH! a gust of air blows you up into the stratosphere.
Your surprise at this totally unexpected change of events, before you die of shock and lack of oxygen, is basically what these fish experienced. https://twitter.com/matociquala/status/1216509995832864768

Getting picked up absentmindedly is actually something that can be so intimate
