Just watched Weapons and that shit fucking ruled!

No. Fuck Reagan. He was fucking vile and is the reason we are here. Fuck him.

Yesterday I left 10 extra whistles on my door w/a note saying to take 1 & blow it to alert others if you spot ICE agents. 6 have been claimed already. I’m going to buy more to restock. It’s an easy, friendly way to support immigrants & to self identify as a safe space.

Correct. It has a serious effect on morale. The largest wave of attrition of police officers was the result of the George Floyd Uprising, and 75% of NatGuard deployed to LA in June said they would not re-enlist. Destroy their self-images as tough guys doing the right thing, and remind them daily.

And this is why you can’t just palm any candidate off on Dem voters. When it comes to the Senate we all suffer. Vet them.

This is incredibly deep and I am tearing up. Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams are the worst of us. Mamdani is one of the best. When you vote in this election, whatever your faith, you are making a moral decision that will reflect on your character and your soul forever.

Infinity plus one reasons not to use Ai… bsky.app/profile/mark...

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness. Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

Two things can be true at the same time: neither charities nor mutual aid groups have the capacity to completely replace SNAP benefits for November, *and* we should still do as much as we can to feed people and save lives.

The vibe I bring to the function

Spotify customer service is immediately ending conversations if you ask about them airing ICE advertisements on the platform. Cancel your Spotify subscription. #BoycottSpotify

Make zine if you can't make a book. Make a flyer if you can't make a zine. Make a postcard if you can't make a flyer. Leave a record.

People should absolutely be writing about how ICE's occupation of their cities is transforming life in these places, and they should be publishing it in print on paper - not just social media posts. There needs to be a record of this. Things are changing in measurable ways for the worse every day.

If you keep lowering your standards to “win” against the other side, eventually you’ll just be on the other side

please watch movies and read books and play games and look at art, please view it with your own eyes through a lens you made yourself and not just through video essayists and ending explained videos please im begging you

If you're in the doom pits about all of this I extremely recommend getting involved in community defense efforts like this. These sickos want you to be isolated and terrified, and nothing blows that up like working with thousands of your neighbors to run them out of town in their sad rental SUVs

Remember when Jessica Ramos endorsed Cuomo and overnight multiple progressive groups removed her from their endorsement lists and everyone immediately forgot her name? That's what should happen to Platner, imo.

What ppl fail to understand is that tech bros are born with a mush brain where they think everyone is as jadedly useless as they are. They look at vacations as a hassle because they don't accept an outside world, for they didn't create it. They made tech to assist Patrick Bateman in his murders.

So my place of work is getting salty because we are trying to unionize lol

No Kings protests were one of the few times Trump, MAGA, and right-wing media were reacting to something the opposition did, rather than the opposition reacting to whatever they do. Adopt a principle from war strategy: generally better to be taking action and forcing opponents to react. Good point.

I will repost this forever.

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.

And like I get the distrust of whatever central or not central org is organizing. That's irrelevant to the crowds that show up to be perfectly honest. You think its a psyop? Go help redirect. The people showing up are very genuine in their fear and anger right now.

This is my thing. Lots of negativity about how these protests dont do anything. The no kings protests Ive been to had lots of older normal people desperate for answers and voices. They are radicalizing, but kind of lost. Go be a compass. Dont just shit on it.

I know something about aircraft pricing, and when you "need" to get updated avionics, safety equipment etc. This is grotesquely wasteful, unnecessary, and self-aggrandizing. No Kings. Also, no cosplay Marie Antoinettes. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/u...

this rocks. when indiana edu killed the student newspaper, Purdue stepped up, printed the forbidden issue, drove it to Bloomington and stocked the boxes.

There’s plenty advice floating around about protesting. I’ll add to it by saying: ignore anyone involved with RevComs/Refuse Fascism. They hand out signs and literature to grow their platform. They’re a political cult run by Bob Avakian who promotes a revolution, but only if he’s the boss.

You NEED to start calling payment processors again, and at all. This literally destroys an entire ecosystem. If you literally cannot mention a commission *AT ALL*, that's every individual artist at all ever. Every maker. Everyone who runs their business this way. DO SOMETHING.

We are marks and chumps honestly. Little girls and grandmothers were in the streets of Cairo for weeks over less than this, and at greater peril to their own safety.

Please stop informing me that stancil said no kings is bigger than the civil rights movement. I have him blocked so I don’t get brain damage thank you

When parents get rightfully upset about Turning Point USA bringing clubs into high schools across the country, it’s because the people that were caught in that young Republicans chat are the same people who will join a TP USA chapter in high school.

very annoying that we had to endure about a month of these people going “calling us nazis hurts our feelings” to then immediately be revealed saying nazi shit and going “yup, we want gas chambers. so what libs”

Would it surprise you that the owner of Scientific American's parent company, Stefan von Holtzbrinck, invested $37 million in Inkitt, an AI firm? What a SHOCK

oh fuck off. no it isn't. sure let me just introduce them to a heartbreaking work of staggering beauty via the absolute veggie tales. absolutely not. get lost

*homestar runner voice* twansgendaw

so, finally getting around to watching It: Chapter 2 and... I don't like trashing on movies, its not fun for me, but this is a mess.

Authors should put themselves as characters in their own book more often.

yeah man, trans reporters, whom the ny times derogatorily calls "trans activists" so that normies won't listen to them, have been reporting on ADF activity in the UK since 2018. bigotry in journalism makes you late to the story.

BUT HEY! THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

Frazetta fucking rules.

Please share the news about these students working to get transparency on why books were removed from a statewide reading bowl (including a book ON book banning!!) bookriot.com/helen-ruffin... And then sign their petition here: www.change.org/p/ensure-tra...

You know what job existed before there were farmers? Artists and storytellers. When humans were surviving by hunting and gathering, art was being made and stories were being told. These are important to our continued existence. Yet this is what Altman would like you to believe isn’t “real work”.

Know Your Rights canvassing and education at work!!! Knowing the difference between a judicial warrant (that has to be filled out correctly!) and a nonsense DHS warrant (that is useless for entering private property) can save lives.

Mamdani talking lucidly and passionately about trans rights and history in a video that should frankly shame every politician who has hemmed and hawed and triangulated and said, "Well, but sports..." It's not that hard to tell the truth and stand for what's right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEvV...
