we found it, the one good “self-deportation”

I don’t know if this will help any of my other neurodivergent peeps, but you know what I’m doing a lot of now? Logic puzzles. The little grids with “Bob has brown hair and killed either the dragon or the kraken, but not on Tuesday” clues. Having to focus so intently shuts up the anxiety for a bit.

Ex-farm worker here. We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing. Not true AT ALL. Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are. The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour. At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.

Just a reminder, it's only peaceful for as long as the police allow it to be. It is always the police who decide if a protest is going to be violent.

As always, if you want to make one donation that helps multiple people on the ground in Gaza, I recommend the Sameer Project, a mutual aid groups that's doing incredible work despite the horrific conditions: linktr.ee/thesameerpro...

Not an app but a general idea

Signed.

We succeed in trauma recovery to the extent we become the adult we could & realistically would have turned to for understanding & help once upon a time. That's the target I keep in mind.

People who care about your mental health care about your autonomy-- that your decisions are actual decisions. Sustainable trauma or addiction recovery is not built on coercion or shame-- ever. Ever. Ever.

“A Diplomatic Humanitarian Convoy would mark a historic step to break the siege, end the starvation, and affirm the world’s rejection of hunger as a weapon of war.” A crucial Palestinian-led call from 250+ orgs to break Israel’s starvation siege of Gaza. law4palestine.org/unified-call...

Rodney Hinton Jr. and Luigi Nicholas Mangione. FREE THEM BOTH! 😤

I haven't seen the same outpouring of support for Rodney Hinton, Jr. that we saw for Luigi Mangione. GoFundMe took down the fundraiser for Hinton, who is accused of killing an officer shortly after he watched bodycam footage of police killing his 18-year-old son.

Easy does it. Slow, smooth inhale; hold it for a sec; easy, smooth exhale, like through a straw. Hook into that vagus nerve and center yourself. Ready steady. Wherever you are, whatever situation you’re faced w/ when you read this: you’ve got this. Remember. Remember.

you don't have to tell me twice!!!!! 😋

Hey @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team can you please stop suspending accounts from Gaza those are people and they are starving and they’re here begging for food

Did you know Canada is arming Israel? Israel has killed over 50,000 Palestinians in the last 18 months. It’s genocide. Sign the petition to stop funding Israel: saygenocide.ca

Happy Easter, which is colonial

Nobody involved in social movements / direct action / social work / legal aid ever uses the word “felon” as a pejorative. This is a fundamental disconnect between moderates who love to dunk on Trump and those who work and organize every day on the front lines of injustice.

Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza. Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza. Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza. Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza. Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza. Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza. Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza.

This is the biggest and best development on fighting climate change in a long time.

Yeah, the smaller, more targeted protests seem to be making the biggest difference, ironically. (Tesla, Target, etc.) In the US, it’s not really effective to hit them in the symbolism. You have to hit them in the capitalism.

This is in Haaretz. If you recounted a Palestinian’s account of this fact in the United States, you’d likely be fired

Relationships w/ a power differential, like therapy, doctors, lawyers, political leaders, influencers, or parents, always have the potential to trigger survivors of coercive control-- no matter how nice or well intentioned the relatively more powerful person happens to be.

Hi everyone – Irish or not, we need your help. An anti-trans conference is set for April at The Johnstown Estate in Ireland. Please take 10 minutes to contact the venue and let them know that platforming transphobia is unacceptable Phone: +353469540000 Email: [email protected]

"The report found that more civilians were killed in the first week of the Trump administration’s bombing campaign than were killed in the 12 months of US- UK strikes on Yemen that were conducted under the Biden administration from Jan 2024 to Jan 2025." The Signal chat was bad. This is worse:

The biggest problem with putting plans for bombing Yemen in a group chat is that THE UNITED STATES HAS BOMBED YEMEN ALMOST FIVE HUNDRED TIMES SINCE 2002, NOT INCLUDING THE ILLEGAL CLUSTER MUNITIONS AND OTHER WEAPONS WE GAVE THE SAUDIS TO ALSO USE TO BOMB YEMEN. WE SHOULD STOP BOMBING YEMEN.

Polls show that 70% of Americans feel that the United States is still a functioning democracy. But in this El Salvadoran prison, they aren't so sure.

BREAKING: Israeli settlers have carried out a ‘lynching’ of the co-Director of Oscar winning documentary No Other Land. Hamdan Billal has injuries in his head and stomach and is reportedly bleeding.

27 pages. Of babies. Whose entire understanding of what Earth sounded like was bombs dropping & people screaming at the sky

In a targeted attack on his car, Israel has killed Al-Jazeera's Hossam Shabat, who was only 23 years old and was one of the last remaining journalists in Gaza. There are no words.

This isn't an election about Trump, it about who can best exploit this moment the most to cut taxes, spending, regulation etc.. The Liberals or the Conservatives.
