"Working class" in 2026 means a blue haired barista with they/them pronouns, a Asian immigrant nail technician, and an undocumented hotel cleaner. And we are going to keep having the same fights until we let the midcentury illustrator mirage of the white guy in plaid with the lunch pail go.

Leo: You will discover a miniature replica of your house tucked away in the attic. Inside the replica will be a tiny version of you, discovering an even smaller house. Try not to let it mess with your week.

Would y'all be interested in me sharing a link to register for an Eclipse in Egypt (August 2027) tour? My husband and I are lecturing, it's very reasonably priced (less than half of Abercrombie), 5*, private tours at Giza/ other sites. I am not making $, just there for eclipse vibes 🌝🌛🌚

💯!

If you yourself have not personally sucked dicks for money, then I don’t wanna hear you use the word “whore” as a slur like you’re fighting for freedom or some shit. No sir, that is misogynistic as hell, and you ain’t no comrade of mine

I know of two trans women who have been followed into a bathroom with a gun and a demand. The bathroom bill’s purpose is to embolden the people who are already willing to commit hate crimes. Speculating on state enforcement is a farce, as it was not the intention of WCN lawmakers. 🧵 #idpol

Just a reality check for the sheltered, milquetoast reporters writing articles about the Idaho bathroom bill. We already know what this looks like. This looks like insecure homophobic people pulling guns on trans folks in bathroom stalls w/demands to show genitalia. It’s BEEN a problem. 🧵 #idpol

Fun to watch people figure out in real time that yeah Nazi shit is a red flag for many reasons, actually

Disability history has been widely suppressed to the extent it rarely even gets mentioned when talking about the past. Huge congrats to Prof. David Turner for his groundbreaking deep dive, A History of Resistance. Out this week: www.waterstones.com/book/disabil...

I thought I would get many more joke answers here.

I want to see some Democrats campaigning on reverse Reagan-era policies. I doubt I will ever get what I want, but hope springs eternal.

Ending the diagnostic odyssey for patients is the goal of this scientific team, all of whom are keenly aware that identifying the cause of an illness is key to curing it. The team focused on encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain and spinal cord tissue. Although often caused by an infection,

And most recently melanoma... Just gah! A personalized cancer vaccine that fights melanoma : NPR share.google/GedlzCEQeRrB...

it led to the closest thing ever to a straight up cure for pancreatic cancer and they’ve just…ended it

many people who would have lived longer will die because of this. he’s one of the most destructive people on the planet.

Ableism is so embedded that folks think people who are not working are literally just sitting at home, watching TV, collecting benefits and living their best lives. I don't hate much but I hate these people and that there will be no consequences for their cruelty. www.npr.org/2026/06/03/n...

Relatedly, I think people who aren't part of any disability communities and who want to believe in a benign and omnipotent God are all a little threatened by the unspoken question of "why would God let this happen?" Violent crimes can be explained as the result of free will, and the disabilities and

I research the use of weaponized small drones against civilians globally: there’s a VAST list of things I’d worry about US law enforcement doing before I’d worry about them blowing up/shooting protesters with drones. I worry lots about cop drone SURVEILLANCE. I don’t worry about this.

The arc of the moral universe only bends towards justice if we bend it. There's no karmic comeuppance for fascists. There's just us. Community and hard work and a willingness to to take risks and fail.

i am so very from ohio that i have friends who do policy there for the farm bureau and stuff and... i could very believe this is real

A good mascot for UBI would be Luigi dressed as Robin Hood.

The more they fail, the more destructive they are. They are absolute clowns, but their egos will not tolerate being questioned or shown up in any way. They eliminate anyone who challenges them, even if that challenge is not a Pelley one, but merely being more talented and skilled than they are.

Wow, really proud to see @bambrooklyn.bsky.social 's "Black Cops, Spies and Overseers" make @nymag.com's "25 Notable Releases Over the Next Two Weeks"! via @ericvb.bsky.social nymag.com/article/best...

One of the fundamental reasons policing doesn't work is because the police are dangerous to victims of crime.

Everybody I know has stories like this with the cops. Literally every single person I know. Sexual assault, cops did nothing, treat the victim like shit, like they did something wrong. Stalking, harassment, threats of violence. Cops did nothing or actively harmed the victim.

There’s a real struggle between making society more tolerable, respectful and sensitive to the needs and lived experiences of its citizens AND ALSO distress is an inevitable part of the human experience and distress tolerance is the key to preventing it from ruining your life

i used this template and wrote in a bit about being disgusted by being used as a pawn in this fascist campaign against my trans peers. it was still quick and easy. cis people/those not at risk of being targeted need to get on this and not leave the trans community fending for themselves

I need abled people to recognize the following pattern: 1. these "symptoms" aren't a disease 2. patient advocacy 3. ok they're a disease, but it's super rare 4. patient awareness campaigns, more diagnosis

Morningstar analysts say SpaceX is “significantly overvalued” Analysts say xAI poses a “material threat of value destruction” to company, with its “economic moat indeterminate.” Morningstar values #$SPCX at $780 billion, which is 48% below private market valuation (and $780bn too high) #$TSLAQ

I looked at some tweets yesterday and there were a bunch of people sincerely and earnestly being like “who cares about the journalists, fire them all, people don’t watch 60 Minutes for them! They watch for the stories!” And dawg listen…do we have any theories about how the stories come to be…

Seems like I’m always asking for help on here and I hate doing it but we don’t have any other options. Please please can you have a look at, or share, our GFM for a new power wheelchair for MrsHackenbush.

My grandma would drive me around Yakima in her 1969 VW Beetle and tell me how much better the New Deal - Social Security in particular - made her life. Politics can help real people and that’s the lesson these assholes want us all to forget

Oh no, not John Blanche!

I disagree with this one though. Not only would this mean abandoning many good people in red states, the current form of the federal government would not tolerate freedom in blue states for long. We must remake the federal government.

a dad bod? you mean a father figure

If the 60 Minutes thing is proving anything it’s that a lot of people in positions of power think there is no crime greater, no injustice more profound, than being called out for being incompetent when you’re clearly fucking incompetent

If Democrats do not pair their next electoral victory with a strong record of governance, we are going to be right back in the maws of fascism one election later. trib.al/drOzLyC

The number of designers I have to explain visual heirarchy to is wild, to me. WHAT ARE WE TEACHING THE YOUTHS 😆

I worked on a movie where Keith David was the only one of the actors who stopped by the post-production office just to say hi to all the people doing the boring paperwork jobs. That was extremely cool of him.

Surely someone must have written a good piece about the current pretence that white cis women are most at risk from strangers (racialised, transed) rather than their own fathers, uncles, husbands and boyfriends? So weird to watch the pretend co-opting of some radical feminism without that truth.
