Tap Into the Power - Suicidal Tendencies don’t fear it

Bothers me when people discuss Left movements in the U.S. w/out underscoring the GENERATIONS of repression, surveillance, violence directed at movements. The "Left" is so disorganized is used as a joke but I hardly ever see those same people saying 'THE LEFT WAS TARGETED & DISORGANIZED by the STATE'

Experts push back on online speculation after string of bodies discovered in Houston bayous #KVUE #Austin

Look, it’s Heroin and Adderall ganging up on Tylenol.

I used to not know pepper was hot, I thought it was a flavor like paprika. Then my last child knocked out my spices abilities. Turns out, if you can’t handle spicy food - pepper is HOT

"Sakir is now enrolled in an unaccredited online program to keep up with his studies, as other online schools have upheld the district’s decision and refused to enroll him." Absolute pieces of shit. The GoFundMe page (which no news source bothered to link to??): www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with...

maybe today just ain’t the day for me to be on social media. immediately get Catch-22 7th grader expelled for disarming another kid and white savior complex fuck the homeless because they didn’t appreciate my blessings enough

You used to minister to the homeless. Bought them food & drink & clothing. But they never want to accept anything because they don't want help. They just want to smash windows. So your compassion for the homeless ran out & you have only hate speech for them now. Cool story, bro.

FUCK YOU MICHIGAN BULLSHIT RACIST SCHOOL. FUCK. YOU.

For many years, I waited for someone to start a books to incarcerated children program in IL. It didn't happen. So I decided that I would start such a program. What were the steps to do so? 1. I spoke to people who ran Illinois Youth Prisons about whether they would support such a program.

‘Sinners’ is reportedly returning to 70mm IMAX theaters for Halloween 🎃

Four years of smug white Canadians telling me about how much better they were than the US while I heard anti-Black racial slurs on the street that even Americans don’t use anymore It was a lot and the patience they ran through will never return

This should be the end of Democratic Party leadership. I cannot look at chuck Schumer peering over his goddamn glasses for a moment longer

if you haven’t read The Silmarillion because “it’s boring” that’s okay. But, please read Ainulindalë at the very least. It is beautiful and sets the stage for the universe of LOTR

Galadriel is that bitch

One of the key ways you refuse to comply with fascism is by becoming even louder and more fearless in supporting vulnerable people. You SHOW that you are unwilling to throw the "undesirables" under the bus if only for self-preservation because under fascism you will also become undesirable one day.

Perhaps we shouldn’t let Israel kill whoever they want.

I truly don't understand how democratic leadership think they are going to move forward after voting to honor a white nationalist who essentially called Black women—the base of the party—stupid. It's insulting. I find it personally insulting.

The Heritage Foundation, along with its spin-off, the Oversight Project have called on the FBI to add "Transgender Ideology-Inspired Violent Extremism" aka "TIVE" to its list of domestic extremist groups. This should make alarm bells go off for everyone.

Statements like these have real consequences and this one directly led to an attack on a trans girl in Texas - when she reported to law enforcement they refused to make a report of the attack. It was only after Vice News got in touch they looked into the claim. www.advocate.com/news/2022/5/...
