It's been an hour. Fuck Donald Trump.
Costco wouldn't back down on DEI, and now it's going up against the Trump administration, suing on the grounds that Trump overstepped his emergency powers by imposing tariffs — and asking for a refund. Here's more from @CNN on what Costco said in the lawsuit, and the handful of other companies that are separately suing the government.

Today is World AIDS Day, and for the first time since its inception in 1988, the U.S. government will not be commemorating it. Trent Straube from
POZ Magazine writes about the stats on HIV and AIDS, and the impact of the Trump administration. "Although new HIV rates have declined overall, progress is imperiled due to funding cuts and a hostile administration in the White House," writes Straube.

When the U.S. House Oversight Committee released 20,000 of Jeffrey Epstein's emails earlier this month, some people wanted to check out the messages for themselves, but without having to wade through the whole digital dump. @motherjonesmag reports on Jmail, which presents the documents as if they were in a Gmail account, with a working search function. Here's how programmer Luke Igel and prankster Riley Walz made it. At the second link, find the inbox, with some familiar names within: Steve Bannon, Quora, and, erm, @Flipboard.

Rev. Michael Woolf, senior minister of Lake Street Church of Evanston, was shot in the leg with a pepper ball by state police while protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility, Illinois. He writes for Religion News Service about why he continues to show up at Broadview, the atmosphere at protests there, and religious leaders' obligation to resist tyranny. "It is important for my neighbors who were abducted to know that we will not stop fighting for their release," he writes. "By my estimation, our country is somewhere in 1930s Germany. Fascism is growing in power, but we still have opportunities to resist."
