the whole point of being an american is eating food from every country on earth with people from that country and partying with them. that's the thing we're best at and it's fun as hell and i can't believe these dickheads are trying to fuck things up for us

Everything the US has been doing to Black, Indigenous, immigrants, disabled, trans, and low income folks is now happening to white people. Everything the US has been doing to Palestinians via Israel is happening to white USians now. Have we had enough? Are we finally going to fight for everyone?

Local ICE-watchers have done more to protect Venezuelans from fascist thugs than the entire Democratic caucus over the last 12 months.

As a holiday tradition, we should seek vengeance on our enemies. 😇

Dick Cheney died & I don’t have a clever tweet.

Nothing heals my soul quicker than handing out candy to Philly kids.

Just went to Costco today to flip mine from LFL to LFP. #ChingaTuMAGA

Sitting on my stoop sewing & listening to Bruce sing “Streets of Philadelphia” in homage to Pierre Robert. A big piece of my adolescence just passed.

Happy Birthday, @banditelli.org! You are one of the only people worth being on the internet for. Thank you for being you, & today I will eat without a fork in your honor! 🎂

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

Trump losing the Peace Prize to a Venezuelan democracy activist? Chef’s kiss.

Jimmy on Jimmy.

Traveled to CT this week for a work event. Stayed near the beach!

The US minimum wage has been $7.25 for the entire time the ACA has existed. Fuck your work requirements for Medicaid.

Fave tiktoker of today is the guy who is following around soldiers on the Capital Mall, playing the Imperial March from Star Wars on a portable speaker…

Say hi to this absolute unit of a grasshopper that I saw in my community garden last night.

It’s fascinating the way you have turned your family group chat into content for the internet.

“In the near term, everything rests on what the top 10 percent decide to do or not to do. The rest of the income distribution IS NOT REALLY CONSEQUENTIAL from a macroeconomic perspective.” ~Mark Zandi (emphasis mine) Oh. Ok, we we’ll just keep fucking off then, shall we?

He’s angling to be cast on the next season of The Boys as a Homelander wannabe.

I hope you’re out there with a bucket of paint & a brush, now that it’s after 5.

Find myself thinking about these words by Kurt Vonnegut: ...the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media. The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.

What’s a civil society org to do, when civil society breaks down?

I for one cannot wait to see what truly unhinged things New Jerseyans will do to protest this. Have you met New Jersey? (Note—no matter how long I live in Philly, I am a Jersey Grrl (TM) till I die.)

It’s hilarious to me that “he’s taking her to a Coldplay concert” has immediately developed a new meaning.

University of Pennsylvania postdocs and research associates vote to unionize share.inquirer.com/2R2NtH

An important step, if you are setting up modern-day slavery. wapo.st/40e4rfK

I hope a whole lot of grassroots groups took note of this…

I guess I just should have done something entirely different with my life.

I mean, at this point let’s change the name of the department from the DoL to the Dept of Advancing Worker Exploitation. // Trump to cut protections for home health aides, migrant farmworkers

Bumping LL Cool J today like it’s 1990… #iyky

surprising absolutely no one.

I am personally willing to live in a stinky city for a little bit, so that we can stop paying city workers less than $50k. www.phila.gov/departments/...

Please don’t bring them here. We have enough callousness for poor people in our political ecosystem already. www.politicspa.com/pa-chamber-m...

These motherfuckers.

“Do you have TB? No? C’mon in.”

Put your body in front of ICE vehicles. Don’t let them have one more person without a fight.

I would be remiss if I did not plug centeronconscience.org tonight, to the three of you who follow me.

It’s even more demoralizing when you’re repeating it for the third time (technically the fourth, but I’m too young to remember Vietnam War propaganda).

At the periphery of a very sizable crowd at the NoKings Philly rally.

Amassing wealth by oppressing others may be legal, but it’s not moral.

If they come for us in the morning, they will be coming for you tonight.
