My family got this notice, as well as an email from an advocacy group telling us to hire a lawyer. So when I tell you I'm done voting Blue No Matter Who, PLEASE believe me. We need proactive, explicit political protection, not "of course there should be fairness in sports" bullshit.

Absolutely devastating read. www.them.us/story/slain-...

And Democrats are confused why their own base is so mad at them.

In case you haven’t heard we are all boycotting REI until they respect the union. Please spread the word.

"the opinions on generative AI grow more positive and less anchored in labor reality the higher up someone is in the management level ... It’s going to be quite clear that AI policy is labor policy”

Woo buddy lemme tell ya, touching a 300-yr-old journal written by a human being who had similar dreams, days, travels, worries and fears, and seeing how they turn those very human emotions into absolutely breathtaking art and a thriving life?...well, it changes you a little bit

Folks, these are the stakes. Black Americans spent a century fighting and dying for the VRA. It is no more. It falls to all of us to pick the work back up, and carry on. Lament. Rage. Cry. Scream. I've done all these and more this week. But it will take our demanding it for it to happen

Absolutely extraordinary. The Democrats conceded *nothing* and got everything they demanded. They said no ICE/CBP funding, and that's precisely what happened. In other words, they did not cave. At all. But the GOP did—completely.

This is what Du Bois meant when he said Black America stepped briefly into the sun and then fell under the veil.

I think about this Every Single Time someone laments the loss of political community and bipartisanship.

American Black women now have fewer voting rights and reproductive rights than their mothers did at the same age. Progress isn’t a straight line, indeed.

the voting rights act actually worked, which is why the conservative legal movement immediately went to work on dismantling it this has been the focus of john roberts' entire legal career

Headlines saying this Supreme Court decision "curtails the use of race" in voting are going to make me have a stroke. It empowers white supremacy. It does not curtail the use of race.

We must understand that the Voting Rights Act was not merely about ensuring Black Americans rights, it was about democratizing America. This ruling is not just a decimation of Black rights and Black Americans’ ability to have representation, it is a fatal blow to multiracial democracy.

It will never stop pissing me off how much trump is going to walk away from this presidency as a “real” billionaire in a way he never was before, and it is going to be solely because of the public office

"The rise of extreme wealth is one of the clearest signs of this imbalance. In 1987, billionaires held wealth equal to 3% of global GDP. Today this tiny elite, just 0.0001% of the world population, owns the equivalent of *16%* of world GDP in wealth."

Despicable fucking government.

well holy hell i just filed fed/st taxes with Free Tax USA thanks to bsky recs and jesus where have i been all my life?! i was dreading esp the mind-numbingly circular state forms, wow just wow

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

The same week the NYTimes was devoting its significant resources to producing this ridiculous piece about Lauren Sanchez Bezos's call for rich people to not worry and be happy, Ryan Hass, an independent journalist in Oregon, was investigating this horrifying story about a death in an Amazon plant.

"I'd like to gavel in today's board meeting of the American Medical Association...."

For more than a week, Amazon has managed to keep a death at its Troutdale, Oregon, facility out of public view. Workers I spoke to are pissed.

Attacking the Pope and then portraying yourself as Jesus is ... I don't even think the Germans have a word for it.

holy shit he actually conceded folks, they tell you they’re invincible they tell you they’re inevitable they tell you that you should give up and stop fighting and absolutely none of that is true
