I’ll be at the in person meeting on Wednesday and for Devlins!

When we fight, we win

You don’t get to be alternative and lick boots 🙄

Everybody in the media is three evangelicals in a trench coat it seems

Embarrassing

☹️

Bill Clinton was always problematic

Yeah corporate landlords have its problems but they are nowhere near the deep personal manipulation that small landlords have on many renters

Boston did not clear snow from the bike lanes after the storm two weeks ago, so our community came together to do so. "We just want to get home safe and alive!" @bikeboston.bsky.social @streets.boston.gov @mayorwu.boston.gov @universalhub.com @wcvb5.bsky.social @mass.streetsblog.org

Hey @mayorwu.boston.gov I voted for you because you believed that we can be bold and imaginative about more than car transportation. Can we be better next time?

Massachusetts isn’t just moving too slowly on housing, it’s becoming a national outlier in its lack of urgency to fix the systemic barriers that made it one of the hardest, most expensive places in America to build homes.

if you want to be lazy and also not spend a ton of money on going out to eat or ordering in, you know what has gotten a lot better in recent years? frozen food. not just frozen veggies which are great but honestly a lot of the prepackaged meals aren't bad in a pinch.

This is why “move out of the city” isn’t a housing policy solution

THE RUMORS OF MASSACHUSETTS DEMISE HAVE BEEN GREATLY EXAGGERATED

If they’re tear gassing your polling place- it means your vote matters and it’s threatening, BTW

"What if they tear gas a polling place." I don't know, but they're tear gassing people in Minnesota right now and more people keep coming out of the woodwork to fight back. When you do this shit you're engaging in voter suppression. Just stop it.

every epstein file drop underscores how elite power operates through shared socio-economic networks, regardless of people's ideological differences, populist posturing, or public feuds

💀 this is only partially a joke but it might be a good time to check in on your psychotic leftist friends because being right about a conspiracy hail mary like this is fucking with *my* reality checking

Starting to think "more studies" clamoring around issues like housing is just NIMBYism plus pseudointellectualism

Left-NIMBYs love studies because it allows them to look like they care without actually doing anything substantive.

WE DO NOT NEED MORE STUDIES!!!!

Noooooooooooo

What fucking consultant told you this?? Are you talking to anybody normal?

Stop putting salt on all your food. Just do what your body really wants and return to the depths of the sea.

Anarchist calisthenics really are coming up a lot. Cyclists are actually my favorite practitioners of this and inspire my housing advocacy resilience a lot

No I explicitly have this one contractually obligated that errands must include a Dunkin stop first

Obama being best positioned to coordinate opposition to this administration (particular in civil society smoke filled rooms) but instead opting to lob pronouncements from Olympus like Jupiter but only for those pronouncements to be podcast recs is so insanely Barrycoded

Going to bang a favorite drum: If you give a shit at all about the town or city where you live, voting is actually incredibly important and can drive change. Local elections matter! Voting *alone* is not the way to drive change. Voting paired with engagement and activism is the answer.

lol for all the threats of China being the problem…

It’s actually amazing to see a moderate fed take on language that in 2016 would have been considered too radical.

"Return CBP to the border" Now that you have seen what CBP does, why is it okay to have them on the US-Mexico or US-Canada border? Some people say they want "a controlled border" but at what cost to life?

Old and busted: ‘white supremacist.’ New hotness: ‘white narcissist.’

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

I think @sarahjeong.bsky.social said it's because they devalue women's labor and a LOT of this Scary Logistics stuff comes from people who don't understand that basically all of the civic life they enjoy is created with the help of free labor, largely by women.

strange to me that a lot of people on this website simultaneously agree that the administration is run by incompetents who struggle to carry out their agenda without major political blowback AND that they’ll pull off a complex and sophisticated effort to rig elections and prevent defeat in November

Better hope their tongue doesn’t get stuck licking boot in Minnesota like that.

Listen to your disabled neighbors here: Dinner don't gotta be fancy, folks. Peanut butter, crackers, cheese, nuts, canned soup... get some reasonably healthy-ish calories in ya if you can. But if you can't manage "healthy-ish" then any calories will do.

I think it's okay if some posters sound like outraged citizens expressing themselves, rather than like political communication professionals or social movement strategists.

And what a failure you’ve made of that life, Mike. An opportunity to make the world better, completely squandered.

Police have arrived. Arrests seem imminent. The crowd chants “let them pray” and “Minnesota nice means prosecute ICE”

Chaotic doom only. But also fuck doom.

Useless convert ass

JD really could’ve been anything… but he decided to be useless

*Goose meme* Why would the child be at risk of freezing to death?

This is such valuable advice and put plainly. Please take a moment. TY @tressiemcphd.bsky.social
