Beit Hanoun before October 2023 was a more rural part of Gaza and was known in the city for its beautiful fields and views. Some photos before - now all destroyed:

People keep on bitching about Palestine protesters as if they (in the face of massive state violence) aren’t responsible for one of the greatest shifts in public opinion ever despite an entire media landscape set up to stop them

There is a hunger that bread alone cannot fill… A hunger for dignity, for stability, for a life that feels like life. We’ve been through what words cannot describe.💔 Every contribution is a roof over my family & a message of hope in our hearts.❤️ gofund.me/6f2ca285

“Pffft that can’t be trauma because then everyone would be traumatized!” So…close…to getting it

Trans rights are human rights.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

"I want to dedicate this next one to an absolute piece of shit of a human being. The pronouns? Was/were. Because if you talk shit, you will get banged! Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk, you piece of shit." 💅🏻 🥂 🎉 Absolutely incredible pure king shit

Eugene Debs was sentenced to 10 years in prison for the crime of criticizing America's involvement in WW1 and the draft. Free speech in the US has always been a myth. Debs would go on to run for president as a socialist from prison.

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

This is the person they are suspending people over btw

"political violence is never acceptable," is a phrase you don't hear politicians say after cops beat the shit out of peaceful demonstrators

Posting my favorite Charlie Kirk quotes for no reason whatsoever. “It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment”

Last weekend, I retraced the steps of two of the most important moments in American (and Chicago) labor history, starting with the Haymarket Massacre. But the Haymarket Massacre wasn’t just a tragedy. It still provides a compass for us to fight against fascism today:

Until 1947 it was the War Department.

Be extra kind to the Cowboys fans in your life. They're going through a lot right now.

Akram almost lost his job over something small but deeply impactful he didn’t have a laptop to complete their work! In a world that relies on technology more than ever, not having a basic device can cost someone their livelihood. If anyone can help in any way 🙏🏽 we would be so much grateful

Hey you know it’s not time to elect a president, so all this Newsom worship is not only obnoxious and alienating to marginalized people (including disabled folks, btw), but egregiously premature? We know. You like that his social media people sound fighty. We’re so hungry for that. But he SUCKS.

Game on.

Arrowhead was waiting for James Dobson to die before allowing Xbox users to play Helldivers 2.

Can we be sure that they weren't waiting for James Dobson to die before releasing Silksong?

Meet Shakira. Ten years ago, she was living in a shelter with her three kids, working at a non-union hotel. Now she's a member of HTC. Unions are how working people can build a dignified life. But in a city as expensive as ours, they need local government on their side.

Shrimp and grits is the greatest thing to come out of the South! 😋

As DC was taken over by Trump’s secret police, where were congressional Democrats? They weren’t in DC and some weren’t even in the US. Instead of fighting back against the authoritarian takeover here at home, 22 House “Democrats” were being spoon-fed lies about Gaza on a trip paid for by AIPAC.

My friend Eslam has had her account removed by bluesky moderation. This is not the first time. I want to tell you what she said happened to her, but first, i’d like you to see Eslam’s campaign, since she is apparently not allowed here to share it herself. bit.ly/artist-eslam (1/?)

Gender reveal parties in LA are wild!

The victim's aunt nailed it. Zoraida Garcia, an aunt of Irizarry's, told reporters after the sentencing that if she had committed the crime, “I would have been doing life in prison. But he’s a cop, so he gets the OK.”

Propaganda I'll never fall for, Las Vegas is worth the trip.

the whole 'red states bad, blue states good' mentality really puts into focus the way some of you people are about entire countries, actually.

you really don’t gotta say “this is what you voted for” about a bunch of kids drowning that’s not a thought anyone needs to see or hear
