Disgraceful (With alt text)

I hope the USMNT does well tonight and continues to do so, but this take is unquestionably true. After sleeping on it, I wish they were still sitting Balogun even though he didn't deserve the red card.

great book!

"Centrists don’t fear bad government...They fear a left-wing that governs well. That’s the terrifying threat Mamdani poses to the status quo—and the massive opportunity his administration presents for all of those who want to transform it." Read the whole forum: hammerandhope.org/forums/mamda...

Democratic socialist candidates backed by New York City mayor win key primaries, ousting two sitting congressmen.

The Liberals have used their newly acquired majority to push through major changes to Canada’s laws at the last minute and shut down debate on legislation with major implications for the lives of Canadians. This is not normal. This is what happens when a government thinks it can act with impunity.

Ignoring the fact this is not how the money works re: Iran, Democrats love to post "with all the wasted money we could do all of these things that we also do not support."

Prime Minister Carney says the war in Iran was "worth it". I want to know who he thinks it was worth it for.

History ain’t gonna look fondly on Biden choosing to run again and Harris running a lackluster campaign but both of those decisions are going to be overshadowed by the disaster of Trump and Trumpism

President Obama has lived rent free in the heads of racists like Donald Trump for over 18 years now

This idea that Amnesty snd HRW are especially anti Israel is pretty funny all things considered given the extreme lengths their boards went to avoid having to conclude that there is an apartheid system in occupied Palestinian territory for over two decades. They were beat by radical Jimmy Carter.

As in Britain, this is one where the public have put two and two together for themselves, because they’ve been presented with a solid wall of propaganda. Having to conclude you’re being industrially bullshat about genocide probably has not worked wonders for faith in institutions.

Carney may not be doing as well as he thinks (still leaning too much towards puppethood), but it is an interesting read.

Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler as excerpted in William Shirer’s The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich

USA sind bezüglich ihrer Schulden wieder Kriegswirtschaft.

Oh well, I'll need to do without Kentucky bourbon for a while yet.

Either the art directors at these right wing outlets are secret DSA members or this man has simply never had a bad photo.

There is no other way to construe Canadian public policy and discourse than to say that they are fundamentally racist against Palestinians in that Palestinian life does not even enter into conversations about safety and harm. This is the essence of dehumanization.

She is his creditor (he owes her big money), not her 'accuser'.

Our interview draws on our new report, "A Sequel We Don't Want," that adds up the costs to Canadians (fuel prices, inflation, interest hikes, and more) from this latest ride on the oil futures roller coaster: centreforfuturework.ca/2026/05/17/a....

Trump's war on Iran didn't change the price of making gasoline in Canada one iota--and we produce far more than we use. So why are Canadians paying 60c more per litre?? It doesn't have to be that way. I discuss with Brent Bambury for CBC's 'Day 6': cbc.ca/listen/live-.... #canlab /2

Great thread on Carneyism (a series of bold promises that Canadians actually like) and the reality of governance under Carney (basically austerity first, last and always)

Among the uncountable sins this era of politics has committed, the reduction of political discourse to crude personal attacks that a preschooler could correctly identify as bullying, even as exposing a child to this kind of rhetoric would be grossly inappropriate, is certainly on the list.

Let me get this straight: Canada ‘chastised’ Israel for raping and torturing our citizens… by reiterating Israel’s “right to self-defence”? You truly can’t make this shit up. www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/read...

“It was a mistake... I refuse to be endorsed by AIPAC.” Congresswoman @repdexteror.bsky.social explains to @mehdirhasan.bsky.social the influence of pro-Israel money in her congressional race and why she regrets accepting campaign contributions from AIPAC. Watch here: zeteo.com/p/maxine-dex...

„As a result, democracies across the planet are now threatened by what might be called fossil fuel fascism – an extremist political movement that breaks laws, spreads lies and threatens violence in an increasingly desperate attempt to maintain markets for oil, gas and coal“

A new @epi.org report found that US companies are spending more than $1.5 billion a year on union-busting consultants and lawyers. They’ll spend unlimited money crushing workers’ voices and then claim there’s no money for better conditions.

I believe this is known as liquified natural gaslighting. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Hell yeah. Don't let bosses convince you that you don't deserve more. Don't let someone who hoards $100 million tell you that working people don't deserve $100,000. Instead organize and get yours.

manchin and sinema were just the rotating villains. the real problem is dem leaders like schumer, pelosi, jeffries who cling to the rules and tradition instead of doing what the people keep voting for democrats to do. but folks like the below run interference for them.

Wow, "trickle down" really works for them.

A message from Mary, a 72-year-old Amazon worker from North Carolina projected onto Jeff Bezos’s $120 million penthouse before tonight’s #MetGala, chaired by Bezos.

Trump is openly a "spheres of influence" 'Realist', however crude. He will concede Ukraine to the Russian sphere but expects them to stay out of the Americas and the Middle East. Thinks Europe can defend itself. Less risky than the "roll back Realism" that NATO has pursued over the past 25 years.

Canada not addressing actual class-based economic issues per usual. This is what happens when a banker is a lesser of 2 evils. The NDP should be foaming at the mouth, smh.

which stage of democracy is this

#OtD 30 Apr 1883 author Jaroslav Hašek was born in Prague. Whilst most famous for writing the satirical anti-war masterpiece The Good Soldier Svejk, Hasek was also a soldier, an anarchist, a PoW, a drunk, a dog-stealer, a cook and much more stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1025...

Nato's just a street gang, not a defensive military alliance.

Damn

The Ypsilanti Community Utilities Authority approves a 12-month moratorium on supplying water to data centers, blocking service to facilities including a planned $1.2-billion University of Michigan project. Read more: https://planetdetroit.org/2026/04/data-center-water-moratorium-ypsilanti/

Ok this is really cool. Researchers at the Institute of Materials Science of Seville have created a hybrid device that can generate energy from both sunlight and rainfall. A single raindrop can generate a potential difference of 110 volts, enough to power a small portable device.

"To name it [after its Old Testament monikers] is to claim it," as the old saying goes.

The two takeaways of the Great Gerrymander War of '26 are: 1) No one whines or pouts like a Republican partisan. They fuck around, then go to straight-up tantrum when any finding out occurs. 2) Shit is ridiculous. In a real republic, electoral districts would be set by non-partisan entities.

"Win" and go home might be the most likely outcome.
