genuine plea: please include alt text in your posts so that people with vision disabilities can know what’s in your pics/videos. if public health is going to claim to care about disabled people, we need to be making our stuff accessible, especially during events like this one.

It’s super weird that all these empires rapidly went from ‘the sun will never set on us’ to ‘we’re gonna compost all our people’

Or is Cannes saying NAH we’re done with Hollywood

It’s time. Meet in Selma. Saturday, May 16th. blackpowerwarroom.com/dayofaction/

Big tech corporations have finally figured out who is to blame for their crappy products: science fiction writers.

The victim blaming is out of control

I cant get past the paywall. So I do wonder: are there any studies on chewing gum more generally? I often chew gum after lunch to catch things trying to stay in my mouth. Age 60, gums still healthy. Not due to the gum alone (genetics, flossing) but maybe a contributor?

If a disease kills people with health problems and only makes healthy people sick those people aren't healthy anymore, they have health problems and then the next time it only kills people with health problems and only makes healthy people sick and then

Do watch this, it’s extraordinarily satisfying to see a roomful of college grads booing AI and cheering for the before times. There’s hope, my friends.

@avastmachine.bsky.social - à propos of your talk last week, in case you wanna build on OP and elaborate on how this happened, and other places opening their doors to let evil in. Palantir: The Destroyer of Worlds Palantir lovers: Autophagy 101

this may be one of the most depressing replies i've gotten on social media, and I used to get fairly big MAGA accounts sending death threatening hate mobs at me.

It's not about left vs right, it's about the looting of Canada for the billionaire class.

One week with Bumpy! Like any baby, he sleeps deeply and often – especially snuggled up to his Keeper, with a tummy full of milk. Rescued last weekend after his mother died in a territorial fight, he now has a family with us and a wild future ahead. www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/bumpy

How many more ppl will die, how much of global infrastructure will collapse, and how many places will be rendered permanently unlivable just so these motherfuckers can save face????

AOC for president

Hungary's elections were rigged. But 80% of the electorate showed up. Fascism was defeated. Voters were too big to rig. We CAN beat them, but we have to make a plan and show up no matter what. We have to overwhelm the polls. Make 2026 #TooBigToRig

How much longer before this starts happening in the US?

This is science under fascism. Our institutions should be fighting for us, and with us. But instead, they are collaborators.

save the bees

Nice opinion on trans people, did a billionaire pedophile give it to you?

MTG is a racist who hates black people and was a representative in a state that was ONE-THIRD BLACK and worked closely with Trump to hurt black people and supported him politically in almost every single endeavor save for his cover-up of the Epstein files. You do not have to hand it to her.

I’ll look through the list when I’m at my laptop, but does anyone know why I might suddenly have 300 more followers? Has that also happened to you? It just makes me suspicious…

I'm doing up the Trans Agenda for tomorrow and there is a piece in the Scottish Mail headlined "Union ‘taken over by trans thinking’ sent man to women’s event" and the 'man' is a trans woman. So, we've gone beyond 'identifies as' and don't even get that any more.

Russians thought they would take Ukraine in three days, but they have now spent longer mired in Ukraine than they spent actually fighting Germans in WWII. It’s another reason why they’ve cancelled so many Victory Day activities.

You didn't "earn" a billions dollars, Jeff Bezos. You *took it* from your poorly paid workers.

A whole-ass article about a TB outbreak that doesn’t ONCE mention vaccination “But you were living in San Francisco, Gabrielle, surely that was safe.”

Genocide doesn’t require genociders to kill directly. Removing food and water also works. “This isn’t a genocide” “Racism is only about intent” Two of the many ways today’s racist fachosphere denies the existence of social relations & the power of infrastructures.

Oh look the NYT once again demonstrates that it’s not worth the paper it’s printed on, nor the kWh spent reading it online

Wow, I can't believe Labour's tactic of yelling "DON'T VOTE FOR THESE GREEN CUNTS, THEY'RE DANGEROUS, VOTE FOR US, WE HATE IMMIGRANTS IN A BETTER WAY THAN REFORM!" hasn't led to them keeping all their council seats.

It’s the same with fertilizers and other resources from the Persian Gulf. The wealthy will have to pay more, but the poor will be priced out. This is happening more than a year after Trump & Musk destroyed USAID. There’s going to be tremendous suffering that the well off will never have to endure.

“The strain in ​Papua New Guinea, where nearly 40% of people live below its poverty line, points to a broader threat across Pacific nations that rely heavily on imported fuel and maritime and air links.”

EDSITEment - a project National Endowment for the Humanities with 30 years of development and over 1,000 lesson plans and resources for K-16 students that attracted 2.5 million visitors per year - appears to have been archived and is no longer accessible. This is what the #NEH has become.

I guarantee that listening to this will lessen the immense pressure on your chest, at least a little We do have great options for leaders. News flash: they’re YOUNG AND BLACK AND BROWN AND THAT’S GOOD. I’m beyond tired of white ppl my age & older cravenly caving in the name of caca compromise

Not allowed to reply but: hell yes

Anti-African xenophobia rears it's ugly head again in South Africa. '“In 1994, my father wrote a personal cheque for $10,000 to Nelson Mandela.” The donation represented a conviction that “Black dignity is indivisible” across the continent.' #Africasky www.europesays.com/africa/207434/

A poem I wrote after the 2018 wave of xenophobic violence in South Africa. I attended a conference; they put us on a ranch in the outskirts of Pretoria as some of the (othered) African delegates were scared of being downtown. thewegandareview.org/poem/blood-i... #Africanlit #Africasky #Poetry

For those in the US, Tilted Axis Press will be at the Working Class Literature Festival in D.C.The punchy Burkinabe novel, So Distant From My Life, by Monique Ilboudo, that I had the pleasure to translate will be featured at their stand. #AfricanLit #Booksky www.tiltedaxispress.com/so-distant-f...

Given that nothing will bring back the East Wing, I firmly believe it should remain empty, a cautionary tale about the follies of fascism

I love this

Au Sénat nous débattons actuellement de la proposition de loi de @guybenarroche.bsky.social et @sandraregol.bsky.social pour protéger les personnes menacées par le #narcotrafic. Voici l'intérêt de la droite Les Républicains pour la question ⤵️ Chacune et chacune jugera ...

Huge differences btw French & US public universities. My lab here just had a visit from the Inspection de Travail (labor). A good thing, imho

Speaking of "lack of curiosity," I had a revelation during the most (one-off) recent class session I taught: All fascists lack curiosity Not all ppl who lack curiosity are fascist (students were very worried when I 1st said the above) But all fascists lack curiosity, most notably, abt the other

"A chemist has seen a “total and utter breakdown of morale. Mental health is at an extreme low...Suicides, deaths and general inability of colleagues to even focus on simple issues.”" The catastrophe in detail:

Scientists are invoking cruise ships to get ppl to pay attention to the climate crisis. No problem there, whatever works is fair game. Stipulating, of course, that the cruise ship industry must die, the sooner the better. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

@yguichaoua.bsky.social Si tu as un moment: que penses-tu de cette analyse? Le ton férocement idéologique me fait douter des infos présentées, mais je ne connais pas suffisamment les éléments du conflit pour en juger. www.blackagendareport.com/imperialist-...

This is WILD! “We are talking about intellectual fraud consisting of duping a whole host of people into believing that one is the sole recipient in France of an international distinction in a discipline that is particularly little known.”

I have no dog in the fight other than that I love lots of people in the UK, but I am REALLY hoping Zack Polanski and the Greens pull off a major win today Britain needs to kill the Labour Party Let the scientists look at Labour's bones a thousand years from now and try to determine its gender

Extremely bad. There should be a revolt against this. It is very damaging to people and to America. Do you think we can go without people in these professions? Not without devastating consequences.

Oh the entirely expected irony of exploiting indigenous people for a film ostensibly about the exploitation of indigenous people
