Because my HOA is trying to prevent me from feeding people, I’ve been reading my towns zoning laws. Not an easy read, but I am learning that a lot of things are HOA prohibits are unenforceable because they infringe rights that are explicitly protected by local laws.

Oh so now copyright matters.

My town and neighbors are literally trying to stop me from feeding people and I cannot believe it.

Shoutout all those dorks who said AI would “fix accessibility”

I actually think conservatives DON'T want some people to be happy at all.

And yet I can’t get any of my doctors to wear a mask (or if they will, one that actually fits properly).

The COVID-19 pandemic is not over, the effects of SARS-CoV-2 are commonly body-destroying in ways we’re barely beginning to understand, and the best way to keep yourself and others safe is to WEAR A MASK.

one of the videos from the occupation that i find most haunting is the one from the woman in west stp who had a doordasher run into her home & refused to give her up. specifically, when an ICE thug says "you don't even know her" in tones of baffled indignation. they straight up do not get it.

Not sure who needs to hear this but it's okay to do fun things & enjoy your life. I'd argue that it's actually necessary in order to maintain your sanity right now. Read a book, watch a movie, walk your dog, bake a cake or anything that brings you a little joy. This is a marathon and we will win. 💪

It's so telling that all our social narratives say that "do what you gotta do to survive" means some kind of violence or psychic damage against someone when what it's really "have some joy, get out in the garden, laugh with a friend"

FUN FACT: You personally interact with dozens, even hundreds of artists and storytellers on this website every day who dedicate 0% of their resources to directly harming trans people. Many of them have comics, or albums, or podcasts, or even fantasy novels available for your guilt-free enjoyment!

With absolute fucking pleasure. Considering the vitriol those tech bro "early adapters" hit us with? The schadenfreude will be soul nourishing.

Do. Not. Hire. Also DOGE. I'm not even joking. I'm so insanely pissed and filled with wrath after the last 3 months.

I'm surprised how many folks don't realize Chuck Norris was actually a piece of shit.

And we're all out of oil

In Columbia Heights, we just held a mutual aid craft show that raised $15k. Handknit hats made by grandmas and original art created far from the front lines made $ to help ppl pay rents. Our tactics continue to diversify and art is a big player.

I’m shocked at how controversial wanting to feed people is.

Given how many “progressives” are cool with body shaming when the person is shitty, Ashlee is 100% spot on here.

Dear disabled friends, For your own sake, anticipate many self-proclaimed “progressives” agreeing with the sentiment. Trump’s comments alone are vile and enraging. Please be mindful of your spoons before engaging with anyone agreeing.

This is ableism at its most vile. A President saying someone is “dumb” for having learning disabilities. Saying a disabled person should never be allowed to be President. This is why disabled people hide. This is why they don’t disclose that they’re disabled.

It’s so fucking wild that being against murdering kids is “woke” in 2026

FWIW I rarely see the CSS devs advocating for this. Its nearly always the backend and JS folks pushing AI.

I still have my childhood dog's birthday in my calendar. He passed away nearly a decade ago. I will not ever remove it.

The perfect headline doesn’t exi…

So the constant and consistent posts on here about "we" need to stay in the streets are belied by a reality that no "we" cannot. Some people are but most people cannot for lots of reasons.

They’ve hit 9 hospitals in Iran so far, including a maternity ward. Remember that the next time they try to sell you some bullshit about “the most moral army”

Too fucking relatable

People overseas love their kids just as much as you love yours. Your kids aren’t more special just because they were born on US soil

Israel should not exist. Illegal colonizer/genocider state that consistently mass murders Muslim children.

Even if LLMs could do what’s claimed, end of the day, the people building “AI” are the same dudes that turned every app into rent, and put facial recognition in your doorbell.

I expect nothing less from Democrats, even the most left of them.

CBS, Fox, the Washington Post, and Twitter are all owned by Trump-loving billionaires and soon CNN will be too. Here's why American media has a liberal bias problem.

defunding the police is still a good idea

Every single fuck involved in this reign of terror needs to rot in jail until they day they die.

They found him. He died. Another murder by our immigration goon squads

Fuck ice. Free Palestine. Abolish the police. Dismantle capitalism.

THEY RAIDED THE CAMP TO TAKE THE KIDS LETTERS

Abolish prisons, but I want every single miserable fuck involved in this shit from the very top to the most lowly of admins to spend the rest of their lives rotting behind bars. If the feckless Democrats refuse to take action when this is all over, the party needs to be dismantled.
