Lots of people seem to forget: It is Ramadan, which would affect the pattern of life of everyone in Iran.

War is massacre of people who don't know each other for the profit of people who do know each other but don't massacre each other.

What’s always been so absurd about discourses surrounding political violence in America is that it’s accepted, understood, agreed upon, bipartisan, mainstream that our military gets to vaporize little kids half a world away without consequence

This should ring a bell with UK voters who had the Tories pull something similar and then restrict what could be used as ID. bsky.app/profile/meri...

The president should have NO power over elections. It's a blatant conflict of interest. Perhaps that's why it's in Article ONE!

🧵 WHEN YOU CAN’T PASS THE LAW, TRY DECLARING AN EMERGENCY: Midterms edition. After the SAVE Act stalled and courts blocked earlier efforts, a draft order proposes using emergency powers to reshape election rules. This isn’t a new policy idea. It’s an escalation.

Kansas is giving trans residents 24 hours to surrender their IDs. By stripping IDs and risking voting access, they're criminalizing daily life. This is anti-democracy in action: target, isolate, erase. Inclusive democracy = Everyone has the right to exist, move, and vote safely.

again, so so stoked to be discussing my book with the incredible @leahsottile.bsky.social THIS Thursday in PORTLAND, OREGON at the @cstpdx.bsky.social! Sponsored by the amazing folks at @ojrcenter.bsky.social , @westernstatescenter.org , and @107ist.org! Get your tixxxxx cstpdx.com/event/to-cat...

It's my pleasure.😊 By sharing our respective posts, "WE, the People," demand that #DEM Senators VOTE "NO" on the #SAVEAct 202-224-3121 or 5calls.org And for that, I ❤️appreciate you. "We, the People of the #UnitedStates," are #StrongerTogether #UNITEDWeStand #BlueCrew #democracy #resistance

Bluesky has suspended @themanfromchaos.bsky.social for reporting on a far-right agitator in Coos Bay, Oregon. Identifying and warning about threats is in the public interest for the safety of our communities. Likely mass reported, please unsuspend. @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team

CNN doing PR for Johnson here by claiming "the general practice is for presidents, select military officials & select government officials to lie in honor" without noting exceptions. Like Billy Graham. So White preacher gets to lie in state but not Black one?

In many cases, the Flock destruction was clearly intended as a public message, as in Eugene, OR, where the saboteurs left note at the scene that read "Hahaha get wrecked ya surveilling fucks." The message was carried on the local news. At the end of the year, Eugene terminated its Flock contract.

I was determined to show restraint with the cookies this year, but the universe had other plans for me… Thanks, cousin 😅

Presidents come and go. Our responsibility to protect democracy does not.

For years, Trump has been spouting all kinds of harmful lies about immigrants. Now he’s exporting ICE, some of the United States’ literal worst, to an Olympics host city that has said they’re not welcome. It’s giving “every accusation is a confession.” 👀

Listening to all the rhetoric and newsbites about Greenland. Remember that Hawaiʻi was illegally occupied and made a state according to US law at the time and had allies (UK). YET WAS STILL STOLEN. Not to mention all of north america.

checking in on the president of the United States

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

A statement from Councilor Avalos, @councilordunphy.bsky.social, and Councilor Smith on the ICE shooting of two people in the Hazelwood neighborhood:

Ecologists are sounding the alarm about the deleterious effects of AI and data centers on the climate and the health and economic conditions of local communities, while Big Tech giants are lobbying politicians like Trump to dictate the media narrative, state investments, and municipal zoning laws.

“The same systems that made sure Black, Indigenous, and other communities of color were last in line for clean air, safe housing, and political power are the same ones making sure we’re also first in line to drown, burn, or be displaced.” - @merirei.com My first for @unicornriot.bsky.social

Literally wanting access to meds that allow you to function shouldn’t be treated like drug-seeking behavior, but here we are… Again… 🫠 Crash out season continues.

Supporting Epstein's victims is essential, full stop. But MTG doing the bare minimum doesn't erase years of harmful, violent rhetoric. A broken clock can be right twice a day, but that's no reason to pull it from the trash and mount it on the wall.

BREAKING: Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa has conceded the NYC mayoral race to Zohran Mamdani, warning he’ll mobilise his supporters if the new mayor tries to “implement socialism” or “weaken the police.” 🟠 LIVE updates: aje.io/c1ytm0

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members. At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

today’s information came out piecemeal, and people should be able to share their own situations on their own time, but I could share this much ^ as it is pretty cut and dry on the facts. Teen Vogue also no longer has any trans staffers as of today.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Me offering $50,000 to transgender women is apparently against the official rules of this app. The same one that allows me to be called slurs every hour on the hour

ICE is now raiding night clubs while continuing to terrorize our communities. This is just the latest case of ICE’s unchecked power. This brutality continues to worsen. ICE is trying to divide communities, they know they can’t pull this off if communities come together to stop them. They fear us.

99% of us on the wrong side of their doors They get tax breaks, we pay twice, and fight their wars And we wonder why they cut scholarships and aid It’s designed to keep the status quo, we’re the new slaves

🧵 Trump’s administration said it couldn’t fund hunger relief, but it had no problem funding repression. They chose control over compassion, as per usual. 🧵

I've been thinking about Matt Furie a lot during this period of political frog realignment, so I made this comic dedicated to him.
