Colin Allred was attacked by Ted Cruz for being “pro-trans” and instead of standing up and defending trans kids he said “I don’t want boys playing against girls”. And he lost to Ted Cruz, one of the most loathsome creatures in the Senate, by a way higher margin than Beto in 2018

You are warm. You are satisfied. You are safe. I am writing this under the rubble. My mother is crying from hunger. I tell her the sky is just "noisy," not deadly. You can pass... or save a life. We don't need pity. We need action. Please help us survive tonight💔 chuffed.org/project/help...

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

I’m saying this again because no one matched it yesterday. Can we change that today? I just need two people to match the $20, like my friend did. Don’t scroll past — prove that kindness still lives in this world. gofund.me/e142e66a7

43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.

Reham sent me this video of making bread with her brother ❤️

The entire conversation around the minimum wage is framed as a question of entitlements or “handouts” when the issue is really this: of the value produced by a worker per hour, how much should employers be prevented from stealing?

reinstitute snap but everyone gets it now

recently discovered that wikipedia volunteers have a hilariously high bar for what constitutes "unusual death"

The fantasies of every ICE agent facing some sort of (severe!) justice tribunal are shocking to me. People speak about it so confidently, like it's something that will magically, inevitably occur... Can you point to a clear precedent in *this country's* history? I only know of the myriad opposites

It's worth noting, particularly for the most instinctive and habitual left-punchers on this web site, that the only party at Nuremberg who wanted to dish out retributive justice to the extent that's mainstream on here regarding ICE et al... was the Soviet Union.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Rabid anti communist remains super confused about capital and capitalism. Strange

Athletics is the best. アスレチックは最の高ですっ☆

I entirely forgot that I made this anti-ASMR video (Sound warning headphones users)

Remembering nearly a decade ago when folks were admonishing people about how punching nazis made you "just as bad as them" while platforming nazis in suits and shitty SS haircuts through profile features and calling all of it the "alt-right," WE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE FUCK YOU WERE DOING

I had a very dark feeling that the Nazi tattoo would only make Platner *more* popular among the Democratic leadership, and I appear to be valid for feeling it

Some of the details may be disputed but this man’s cause of death was determined to be dehydration. It takes over a week without water for an adult to die of dehydration. One officer’s suggestion he needed medical attention was ignored. There’s no plausible situation where this wasn’t intentional.

wife and I are expecting our first child in extremely difficult circumstances after surviving the Gaza war. 🥺 We desperately need to leave the country so our son can live a dignified life. #HelpSaveLives #FundGaza #DonateNow #StandWithGaza #GazaNeedsHelp @orbitalba.bsky.social gofund.me/138f42af8

@mommunism.bsky.social Today we need $63.82 to buy food. Tomorrow I want to feed my children fish. A kilo costs $30.39. We need a kilo and a half for $60.78. Vegetable oil costs $3.04. gofund.me/8346c1ef

Our bodies are exhausted by the effects of hunger, our teeth are broken from emaciation, and our intestines scream with painful emptiness. Now we can't afford food after losing our jobs. Save my children with $200 and don't let them get sick. Im verified by @mommunism.bsky.social shorturl.at/hcCSb

Lot of people in Gaza are struggling to raise money since the ceasefire but they have lost everything and need to rebuild- there are still few other ways for them to make money in Gaza

The silencing and professional destruction of anyone opposed to apartheid and genocide was the immediate precursor to this.

A cool practice when buying video games is to take what you would spend on one AAA game and instead buy like 6 much better indie games for the same price. The cops can't do shit.

sometimes i tell cis people i didnt know you could transition until chelsea manning came out as trans and they dont believe me. they seem to think trans resources have ways existed and trans people have always found each other. like no babe i grew up in rural oregon i didnt even know any gay people

I don't like to dress cats up in clothes, but for Halloween I do put stealth costumes on Francie when she's sleeping.

the plan otherwise is running another candidate. running another candidate is a plan. maine has ranked choice primaries 8 months from now. running a good candidate with no nazi tattoos is a plan. you don’t have to do this. there are 6 posts under this one & they’re all “you don’t have to do this.”

THOSE BISCUITS MUST BE KNEADED EVEN IF YOUR MOOD IS HEATED CASE CLOSE

A moth got into the shelter tonight and it was the event of the season.

I would rather watch a fragment of underdone potato for two hours

I mean ime the poor don't have the luxury of choice as a broad concept and I don't think that dynamic should be ignored, and it's also why greater political autonomy gained through useful and effective social programs is so useful for everyone because it expands those very choices!

G.K. Chesterton had a line about this in “The Man Who Was Thursday”:

Three weeks ago this unhinged antisemite, who’s formed alliances with Neo-Nazis throughout the world, spelled it out: You can’t be a Jew unless you’re an ethnonationalist.

Donald Trump’s father destroyed Steeplechase Park, the iconic amusement palace of Coney Island. Before demolition, he hosted a party for his rich fuck friends where bikini clad waitresses gave them bricks to throw through Steeplechase’s famous stained glass windows

Alright, team Bluesky: US foodbanks are about to have staggering demand when SNAP ends Nov 1st. We need to help them prepare. I'll match donations: DM or reply with a receipt showing your own donation to a food bank of your choice, and I'll donate to match, up to a total of $500. 💪🥗🍲🥚🥧🥪🥣🥛 #NoHunger

"More than 200 protesters demonstrated and tried to block the entrance to Coast Guard Island in Alameda, Calif., on Thursday morning." - People are in motion everywhere... www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/u...

my partner was recently laid off & we can't find them a place to get the covid vaccine uninsured without paying ~$200 out of pocket - anyone got any leads on free clinics in LA? found a couple through MyTurn but then it turns out they either don't have 'em or it's not free 😕

🚨USPS mail carrier terrorized by ICE. A federal worker carrying mail over his shoulder suspected of being an “illegal immigrant? The worst of the worst?” No. He was existing while black. 1/2

I should note: by my count, this makes at least four clergy members *that I know of* who have been shot with pepper balls or rubber bullets fired by ICE/DHS agents in recent weeks — two Presbyterians, two Methodists and a UCCer.

The Show Must Go On👍 ルームランナーと一斗缶のマリアージュたるや。。。最の高ですっ☆

oops, looks like you forgot to include the ((())) around “they” buddy! Let me fix it for you: If (((they))) thought that any of this would stop us or deter us: (((they))) clearly don’t understand our movement, and (((they))) don’t understand Marines. ahhh, much better and more honest!
