If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime. If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder. It’s that simple.

No child should go hungry simply because their parents are immigrants. As mayor, I’ll join @newyorkstateag.bsky.social in using every lever of government for the families who fear if they can afford tomorrow’s meals.

It is essential to remember that living with a disability or chronic disease is a demanding, full-time responsibility. Do not permit others to diminish your self-esteem. Understand that you are not alone in this experience💙

Today is the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. Commit yourself to boycott Israel and not to work with any Israeli institutions until apartheid is over and Justice has been served.

Amazon workers go on strike world-wide. “From Germany to Bangladesh, thousands of workers walked off the job on Friday and marched against Amazon’s labor practices to push for better wages, working conditions, and union protections." www.commondreams.org/news/make-am...

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Stephen Miller’s Wife @katiemiller : “Can you cite the statute that makes the boat bombings illegal?” @bakarisellers.bsky.social : “The due process clause in the constitution.”

Israel is using existing ceasefire agreements to establish new realities on the ground, projecting itself as the regional hegemon by launching attacks on Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and the West Bank.

Cold blooded murder.

The National Guard needs to have a babysitter, so they don't get hurt. This is not what National Guard Members signed up for, yet here we are today. They are being forced to act as police officers. The starting pay for DC cops is 80K, Guard Members start pay: 24K or LESS! wtop.com/dc/2025/11/d...

🚨 Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered a Caribbean strike to “kill everybody.” SEAL Team 6 hit the boat, two men survived — so a second missile killed them in the water. Experts say the traffickers posed no threat, there’s no armed conflict, and the order “amounts to murder” and #BlueSky #NewsSky

this is just gutter racism

AI Data Centers are the new pollutant factories to put into black neighborhoods that they pretend wont kill us. Gotta love that old school environmental racism.

Also recognizing the difference between connection and comfort And control and familiarity Is it actually good or is it the role you’re used to panting?

Black Friday reminder: You can support independent bookstores and get great deals without lining the pockets of billionaires 😌

Joseph Stalin planned to expand Red Square by demolishing several historic buildings, including the iconic St. Basil's Cathedral. The primary goal was to create a vast, open space that glorified the authoritarian state and Stalin's personality cult. The architect who objected was put in a gulag.

"Do it legally" my ass.

America is an INCREDIBLY violent country. Both internally and externally. I am not sure what is meant by statements like this. It just isn’t true. Maybe it’s aspirational. Maybe they mean violence SHOULD have no place. But as it is, it clearly does. Front and center, and constantly.

My last day for shipping for my store for the holidays will be December 14th. I always allow myself time to get everything made and shipped before my family vacation. It’s gonna be especially important this year because faster ways to ship are limited. www.newsweek.com/ups-fedex-ca...

I forgot today was Jimi Hendrix’s bday. Happy birthday Jimi! Here’s one of my all time favorite shirts that I did. l just loaded them in my shop for a limited run. comingandgoingdesign.etsy.com/listing/1524...

They are still essential heroes in my eyes. Thank you to our healthcare workers!

Happy Thanksgiving

PSA some people with #disabilities have no other option than to shop at "big box" retailers due to limited store availability. Where I live there is no choices really. So spare us the shaming and calling us names please. I am pretty sure no one wants to give money to them but some are forced too.

Protests have erupted in North Carolina after federal agents arrested 370 people in immigration raids. On Monday, Bishop William Barber and other religious leaders gathered in Charlotte to demand an end to ICE raids. www.democracynow.org/2025/11/26/b...

The Democrats will never get another vote from me for as long as I live until they directly pledge a plan to restore and bolster our public health infrastructure and restore the professional status of public health education. I’m fucking DONE

Gutting US counterterrorism and federal law enforcement capacity was a bad idea. Sorry to get so partisan. I know the president wants to see more political violence in the US, and thinks it's important for federal forces to prioritize crackdowns on nonviolent, noncriminal migrants. I just disagree.

Gee, it couldn't have had anything to do with mental health, right? Only white shooters that didn't grow up in a warzone get the privilege of having PTSD

According to the study, “Life expectancy in Gaza fell by 44 percent in 2023 and by 47 percent in 2024 compared with what it would have been without the war — equivalent to losses of 34.4 and 36.4 years, respectively.”

Important point: this ISN'T about willpower. It is about our food environment. 👇 The ultra-processed foods problem is driven by commercial interests, not individual weakness. Here’s how to fix it theconversation.com/the-ultra-pr... by @philbakernz.bsky.social et al.

While the right lose their goddamn minds about a lone wolf doing something horrendous in DC today, let’s not forget that last week in the White House they all gushed over a genocidal, journalist murdering tyrant whose country financed 9/11.

For the third time, Israeli Jews crossed further into occupied Syria, past the Israeli-occupied Golan into the rest of Israeli occupied Syria, and attempted to establish a settlement.

When I was learning English, I thought people meant vampires.

Israel has killed or injured more Palestinians since the CEASEFIRE, than Israelis that were killed or injured on Oct 7. And, that number includes the Israelis killed by Israeli due to the Hannibal directive.

How it started. Big Balls gets beat up by teenagers. How it's going. Military vets killing National Guard that gets sent.

Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:

If the West Virginia National Guard, or any National Guard unit, was not there, it wouldn't have happened. This is manufactured chaos and another deflection to Trump and company tearing this country apart. 1500 there now and 500 more going in. Why? This is now Russia, period. Wake up MAGA Congress!

we know nothing about the shooter except maybe he's from Afghanistan and yet i'm confident the official representatives of our federal law enforcement agencies will blame it on their political opponents for literally no reason

At least 342 Palestinians have been killed since the start of the truce on October 10.

Bowser on injured National Guard members: "These young people should be at home in West Virginia with their families"

They’ve got a new buzzword

This is quite literally HER land. 🤬

They could have taxed wealth but instead they've gone for the working class AGAIN and people are thanking them 🤣 country is fucked!

Israel building 'concentration camps' for Palestinians in Gaza with US support.

europeans always lean on the symbols of their precolonial past when they push their filth of colonialism on the world. they make a mockery of the only heritage they possess which is untainted by the evils of empire while bemoaning the loss of heritage as their reasons for their racism

Guard members aren't police officers, and they have no real training as such. I do hope they are okay. Trump & Republicans are to blame for any harm that comes to our untrained National Guard members. We train these folks to fight our wars, not police our civilians. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

The United Nations says Israel’s war on Gaza has created a “human-made abyss” that will cost more than $70 billion in reconstruction over several decades.

A reminder: Trump 1.0 ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, and Trump 2.0 granted the shooter asylum this past April. Trump 2.0 also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus.

Every single American should be concerned with the rapid increase of mass surveillance under ICE. It will not go away when they feel they’ve accomplished their mission of getting rid of all the non-white people.
