I don't want 100 troops sent to Chicago. It's a major escalation that must be opposed. I also want folks to understand that the agents that have been attacking us at Broadview are more heavily armed and elaborately, tactically outfitted than National Guard troops would be. We're already in some shit

A rare "radar" view of a category 5 hurricane - #Humberto No, it's not traditional land based radar. This is super cool. Keeping reading if you want to learn. This is called Synthetic Aperature Radar (SAR) taken from a NOAA satellite of the storm on Saturday night. 1/

Hell yeah! We're love to see it! Abolish ICE

Always a great sign when your captors are writing numbers on your arms.

Unfortunately hate to break it to this crowd but the youths don't know affable character actor Richard Kind. The youngins in the bleachers had no clue who he was.

Please friends help Azza and her family. They desperately need assistance to get out of Gaza and survive this war. They are trying to escape to the South. Can you help with even a couple dollars?

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

Yessssss! James Gunn brought Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luther into Peacemaker! This show is so great!

Covid activist artists. Here’s an opportunity with #zohranmamdani to design a sticker that tons of people will receive. 24 hours to make it happen! I would do it if I was talented like that

It's good to see that Zach Woods has only become more powerful and based with time.

Oh the Ramova would be a great joint to try!

one thing i think about @moiradonegan.bsky.social's point is that you never hear people go from "male loneliness" -> why don't we get men involved in collective projects of meaning for the most part. instead it's usually a discussion about how society is too "feminine"

At some point people need to learn that the poverty rate is mostly about the safety net or lack thereof and not the economy. The economy was doing historically well, real wages rising for the first time in decades, etc. And poverty rose because pandemic safety policies expired.

Friends, Azza is in a very desperate situation. She and her family are trying to escape the war and they are struggling. Please help them if you have anything to spare.

EXCLUSIVE: Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin will halt abortions in October in response to the GOP budget "defunding" provision It's the first known PP affiliate to drop abortion services in the wake of the law:

Last night I booked a flight to Chicago so I can cover protests outside of ICE's Broadview detention facility. Sign up for my newsletter please idk.

NEW: Alex Weatherhead had been working at Asheville's Wicked Weed for two years to the day when he was pulled off the brewhouse floor and canned by an HR person over Zoom for posts on his personal Facebook page that he was told "celebrat[ed] violence" in violation of A-B's social-media policy.

Why does this 11 year old, who absolutely has the best excuse to not know about Japanese internment (being 11), still have a better more intellectually rigorous response to learning about it and seeing the fact she hadn't been taught yet as a disservice than most adults I know in similar situations?

BREAKING: Further confirmation that the shooter targeted immigrant detainees, not #ICE agents. All three #shooting victims were people ICE was holding and processing at the center. The shooter died of a self inflicted would and has been described as a white male www.fox4news.com/news/dallas-...

The Northwest Side Rapid Response Team posted this community alert a short while ago. It describes how a resident in Albany Park was lured by a phone call that indicated they had won a prize. Another was lured to an address to pick up scrap metal. Both were detained by ICE upon arrival.

Hakeem Jeffries supporting Charlie Kirk before endorsing Zohran Mamdani is really fucking nasty.

I will never vote for a pro-life candidate and that is a promise. fuck you

I don't think "normal" is really a useful point of reference anymore. There's no "normal" to be had or restored. The closest thing to a last real "normal" we had was 2015, and COVID closed the door to restoration.

It also ignores that leaving was a form of influence! Millions sent a clear message about the minimum standards of fairness and respect we believe are foundational for civic conversation. Their obsession with our departure makes clear it was effectively communicated; they just don't like it

They should invent a Covid vaccine that doesn't make you die

Quick tip to improve your life, replace all hatred with curiosity. Well, bye

More so than Twitter, I'm very scared for what this will mean for the information environment. So many youth, low info/"non-political" folk get their information and news from TikTok and Instagram Reels. I hope we can find a way to counter this.

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom. Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country. (Published 2022)

Once again enjoying your elitist pastimes instead of helping your constituents how “surprising”

This man is one of the campaign’s super volunteers, the nicest dude you’ll ever meet, wildly dependable, and apparently capable of taking the coolest photo of 2025.

This is an agent of the US federal government, armed for live-fire combat against a modern army, slamming a passive and nonviolent female candidate for the US Congress into asphalt. Then walking away without checking if she has injuries, with his identity concealed behind a black facemask.

I couldn't get tickets to the world premiere of Frankenstein in Imax. They sold out in milliseconds. My only choice was to get there 40 minutes early and wait in the standby line. Guillermo del Toro walked by, saw me waiting, and had his team give me one of his personal guest tickets.

Every pundit who took at face value the idea that the Right sincerely cares about free speech, or ideological diversity, or in fact has any principles at all, should be wearing a dunce cap and writing a lengthy mea culpa right now. Not for our catharsis but for public awareness at least
