She might've lost the battle, but the war isn't over yet

Gen A.I. barons want us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe and broadwaye to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop writinge. Thei want to build hell and have us pay for it.

Kat Abughazaleh 4eva!

Michael B. Jordan! Yes!!

You know you're a Hoosier when you're spending your evening with a bag of popcorn watching the weather reports for all the tornado warnings and hoping none come your way.

These are children. In prisons. They have committed no crimes.

And if this was flipped around in the other direction, and people were approving grants with no experience, you know DOGE bros would be absolutely screeching about it

BREAKING: The Senate has passed the biggest housing affordability bill in 30 years, and it includes a ban on investors buying single-family homes. The bill passed 89-10.

SHOULD THE U.S BLOT OUT THE SUN AND USHER IN AN AGE OF ETERNAL DARKNESS? - Gallup 2/20/26-3/5/26 NO - 41% YES - 38% UNSURE - 21%

I have no words.

don’t forget to destroy your clocks tonight, walk away from your mortgage, just start driving, you’re free

I wrote about the first national book banning bill, which effectively seeks to erase trans people. At the end I include a link to let your reps know that you oppose this bill and all it stands for. lithub.com/why-we-must-...

I genuinely don't know if DHS policies will be any different under Mullin (if confirmed). As long as Stephen Miller is calling the shots, I don't expect a big difference. But this was some of the most evil shit I've seen from a US official in my lifetime, so yeah - I'm thrilled she's gone.

Rumsfeld: "I can't tell you if the use of force in Iraq today would last five days or five weeks or five months, but it certainly isn't gonna last any longer than that." Hegseth: " It may or may not take four weeks, two weeks, six weeks. It could move up, it could move back."

Markwayne Mullin is the Lauren Boebert of Tommy Tubervilles

Markwayne Mullin never served in US military, but often speaks as if he did www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

"Demand is so great that programs to mentor attorneys to file habeas cases are emerging... “I’m on all these listservs where people are saying, who can help me in Arizona, who can help me in Mississippi, and people are stepping up and helping each other...” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

A first-hand account of life in hiding.

“No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.” www.columnblog.com/p/corporate-...

One thing you can count on from any authoritarian regime is that the corruption and grift are always part of the gameplan.

BREAKING: Today Bernie Sanders is proposing new legislation to raise $4.4 trillion in taxes from America’s billionaires — a move that would virtually cut their massive fortunes in half. A chunk of the money raised would go toward sending a $3K stimulus check to every person earning under $150K.

everybody stay clear on the fact that several fascist autocrats are using the needless death of innocent human beings as a power grab / attempt to manipulate public opinion when their popularity is low.

I have spent the past several months studying the cutting-edge research on modern democracies that have defeated authoritarian leaders. I've learned that the conventional wisdom on the topic is wrong — in ways that have clear implications for the US going forward THREAD www.vox.com/politics/479...

These motherfuckers deliberately target schools for violence HERE. I sure as shit believe they targeted schools elsewhere too.

Community defense is different here. Scary. Lonely. There's (some) safety in numbers, and they're hard to come by in our red exurban and rural communities. We're standing up anyway. So, today's front page print headline seemed quite fitting: Emotion, defiance as ICE roams western WI FUCK ICE.

“'If the government may simply seize someone without due process, there is no check on its ability to seize anyone,' the judge wrote...” www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

The Resistance is REAL. Important thread.

Basically this regime has decided that quite a lot of Americans don't deserve to live. We're just going to let diseases run rampant and then deny healthcare. This regime does not give a FUCK about anyone but rich people.

Check out this whole thread. Minneapolis and Saint Paul are still hurting. Folks are cautiously coming out of shelter, but need food to get them through until paychecks start up again or new jobs are found. ZCC is my mutual aid! Laura and I have been working together! Please share widely!

To be clear, Kansas Republicans rushed through a confusing and disastrous bill, created a panic, and wasted untold number of tax dollars all to target 300 out of the nearly 3 million people in the state.

Update/Scoop— New guidance sent this AM to Kansas DMVs indicates licenses that previously had gender marker changed not actually invalid yet. However, internally DMV can see who is flagged, and keeping track of who has/hasn't come in to update. Seems about 300 trans/GNC ppl flagged across the state.

Ho-lee Shit. This is phenomenally good news. Department of Education rolls back— for now— its attempts to destroy Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility initiatives. Keep an eye on them, of course, and watch for the hidden knife, always, but for now: Fantastic news.

Again, he doesn’t know how to interact with the world in any way other than as a rapist.

a technology we can all be excited about

Fun with healthcare: We've all been taught that doctors are the ultimate experts on healthcare, but guess what? You're going to be responsible for doing most of the research to figure out what's wrong after you or anyone you know has been diagnosed with anything. Take copious notes & research.

This is the template for the response to fascism by the way. Getting in trouble to punch fascists is, as this hero would say, "Okay."

it's hard to process this level of cruelty to children

For general strikes to be effective, they need to be sustained. In order to be sustained, there must be preparation from many angles. This is a nice list of things to think about if you're really actually serious about a general strike.

It is so refreshing to see smart people who can go off script, be charming and funny... and then come back to talking about concrete ways to make positive changes for people.

You know how I keep saying that every damn skill and capacity is needed in this moment??? What do you know how to do that can serve in this critical time??

About fucking time someone just straight out says it like this. No more pulling punches, Dems. Calling a racist a racist is necessary. Also, I love the previous clip about "The Epstein Class." Keep saying it. Call them what they are.

What? You mean "wealthy NY real estate tycoon playing with daddy's money" isn't working class? Surely you jest. /s

“Renee and I chose kindness. We believed that every life deserves the same care, treatment, and dignity, no matter who they are or what they look like... That shouldn’t be radical. If it is, then I want Renee and our family to be known for how we practiced radical kindness every day.”

“Is it too obvious to say that of course the right only values family as a system of ownership and property, only values motherhood as a way to push women from public life… only values babies & births when they are white babies and white births, meant to reproduce the nation as they imagine it?”

Fuck these fuckers.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Do you ever just think about how Trayvon Martin should have turned 31 yesterday and no one ever got held fucking accountable that he didn't? I do.

I am shocked...SHOCKED I tell you...that Trump is a vile fucking racist. Oh wait, no. We all knew that. He has been and always will be a racist piece of shit, as are the rest of his sycophantic lackeys.
