Tesla doesn't recongise Trade Unions. Apple doesn't recognise unions. Amazon is anti-union. McDonald's is anti-union. Starbucks is anti-union. Google is anti-union. Walmart is anti-union. The big corporations are not on your side.

Happy solstice. Reflect and rejuvenate, fam.

A real pleasure to interview Jon Weisnewski and Coady Willis about this fascinating and brain melting team up of an album for @ghostcultmag.bsky.social ! #sandrider #highonfire #nucleardudes #melvins #akimbo

I think if they really dump AI content onto Disney+ they'll find out real quick that NOBODY wants to see that shit. But it's so symbolic of the state of things that the name that once meant the very peak of hand drawn animation is now in league with the stock market scam anti-human garbage machine.

‘Content’ as a concept has done immeasurable harm to society. Art is art and it exists for whatever reason its creator did it and also the divine drive to create and leave even the smallest mark however briefly lived.

ok, one more interview coming out this year (2 big ones fell through) and my year end list. Then I gotta really try to do my pre-new year's resolution of entering like over 100 songs lyrics into the walking bombs bandcamp so the 15 people who might care will see how hard i really went this year lol.

new frogs

1) If Hegseth ordered troops to "kill everybody" in that barbaric second strike, he should be arrested. 2) If Admiral Bradley followed what he damn well knew was an illegal order from Hegseth, he should be removed from duty, and court-martialed. 3) If Trump does nothing, he is a war criminal.

Oops, i made another walking bombs EP. Needed to expressway some of my #sonicyouth (and some dino) influences. #punk noise forever. walkingbombs.bandcamp.com/album/gasp-g...

RIP Jimmy Cliff 🙏

Damn it's almost like there's been a 50-year long project by rightwing billionaires to convince people their lives suck because of the local associate professor of gender studies and not the wholesale pillaging of state and society

Put together a little #walkingbombs #alternative EP of three odds and ends + three newer songs. Photo/art is of a weird mattress i saw lying by side of road in middle of nowhere in New Mexico. Hopefully just fell off a truck. Some rap, grunge, indiedustrial. walkingbombs.bandcamp.com/album/if-the...

About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

16 yo me: the united states is structured around child abuse Psychiatrist: wow maybe u need more meds Reality: the united states is structured around child abuse

we need to eliminate both parties. both of their evil has gotten us here. it has gotten us pedophile presidents (more than once). it has gotten us thieves. it has gotten us murderers, war criminals, rapers - the WORST of what humanity has to offer. capitalism is rotten. we must build a new way.

Could Joyce Carol Oates please tell Elon it's cool to give all your money away to charity and throw yourself into the sea?

“Since 2018, labor columnist Kim Kelly brought the labor beat to teenage readers through her “No Class” column, covering everything from wildcat strikes to general strikes, the Gilded Age labor organizer Mother Jones to contemporary Amazon warehouse conditions.” 💔 thisislaborwise.com/teen-vogues-...

"It's illegal to fire people for unionizing" "But what if we fired all the union members and said it was for a different reqson?" "Oh, then that's completely legal, go ahead" And that's why there's no union protections in america

Treating anti-Blackness as beside the point, as not disqualifying, as something to be overlooked, I’d argue, is partially how we got here.

So, #radiohead ...used to love (and i mean LOVE) their albums, but it is still fuck radiohead and their pompous, privileged liberal #zionist bullshit. The media pushing them HARD the last few days and the sad shits eating it up can touch grass. #freepalestine. Bibi is not the sole issue, bozos.

hopefully it really does break his heart and the crash out makes him go visit Cheney. Spoken as a New Yorker who saw the grotesque exploitation of tragedy that sheisty Rudy was part of.

Now that Mamdani is elected, we need to also push back on the walkback stuff he did to get in office. "Globalize The Intifada" is a completely justified saying and no one should be discouraged from saying it or allow the meaning to be distorted by bad faith Zionists. #intifada #mamdani #nyc #leftist

for every annoying take I see about how Mamdani's victory isn't a big deal, tell that to the conservatives who are visibly shaken.

NYC, baby.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members. At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

as my fellow Teen Voguers come over here I’ll be sharing their accounts, throw them a follow, offer them work, and we’ll be launching a gofundme/something similar soon!

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Huey Lewis & The News was a pop force to be reckoned with in the 1980s and this is a banger - LFG!! One that: ✅ Won’t spill ✅ Don’t cost too much ✅ Don’t come in a pill #musicsky #80s #music #80sMusic #OldSchool #over40sky #over50sky open.spotify.com/track/0mZNKy...

While it's too soon to tell exactly how this will change ICE operationally, suffice to say that, when you combine this with the massive surge in new recruits, the institutional culture of the agency may be forever changed towards a far more aggressive, militarized posture.

I’m glad that for all the horrors of American society that so many more people “know” about non binary now and it is not a genie that will go back in the bottle. Even if people are forced to hide, they will know the truth about themselves now. Have the language for their experience. And fight back.

its interesting how we’re just barreling towards 42 million people losing SNAP benefits and govt workers are in food lines and there’s genuinely no end in sight and people in nice houses from the comfort of their phone screens are drooling over the shutdown continuing onward because “orange man bad”

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

fucked around and made a noisy lo fi Rentals cover today that i tacked on to my 'Mutiny' EP #musicsky #friendsofp walkingbombs.bandcamp.com/track/friend...

It annoys me when people say “they’re on SNAP but their hair and nails are done and they’ve got tattoos”. It’s extremely normal to do your own hair and buy press on nails, and tattoos literally last forever. What do tattoos someone got 10 years ago have to do with them needing to eat now

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

this is something that individual members of Congress could do tomorrow. The government is shut down so they could use their district offices. I suggested in January that they turn those offices into full on community centers where people could find each other re: mutual aid etc...

Rip to Jack DeJohnette, one of the all time percussive greats of jazz (or any genre). Happy and humbled to have met him a few times around the Hudson Valley.
