Trump’s war on Tylenol is also very much a war on women | Arwa Mahdawi

Putin not Musk is probably the richest man on earth but that only makes the point stronger — control of media by oligarchs leads to folly, fascism, and war

When even Portland cops are saying you’re full of shit, you’ve lost all credibility.

George Hardy, last of the Tuskegee Airmen's World War II combat pilots, dies at 100

Stay strong, Ray. It looks like food supplies are running short as people appear to be bargaining for heirloom vegetables.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

The Hetch Hetchy was essentially a second Yosemite Valley. It was dammed between 1913 and 1927 to provide water for San Francisco, which was previously at the mercy of an extortionate private water company (more on that later).

It does, as they say, look like a fjord.

And yet I still have crippling imposter syndrome every day of the week.

Ladies and gentlemen, the meritocracy

Everyone at Broadview tonight, be safe. These masked bastards are itching for a fight.

From war-ravaged Portland today.

it's funny to be named George Herbert Walker Bush and name your kid George Walker Bush. keepin a lil slice of name for yourself

Plot twist bsky.app/profile/nied...

This is fucking horrifying.

🚨🚨🚨Portland: Posted 15 minutes ago. Hold tight, Portlanders. 1/2

If these people aren’t fascists then that word just has no meaning.

TRUMP: *lining up Democrats against the wall* HAKEEM JEFFRIES: *blindfolded* here's the thought: stop rising prices.

Just the dumbest, most spoiled little children in the history of the planet.

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

It's like their comm teams told Jeffries and Schumer "Trump is sending the army to Portland, people are scared and pissed, you have to say something." And they went "Troops in Portland is bad. But you know what else's bad? Egg prices."

Jesus Christ, how are you so unbelievably bad at this? A deeply unpopular president is recklessly destroying our government, wrecking our democracy, covering up pedophilia and now threatening to use military force against our own citizens but you're tsk-tsking about protecting healthcare?

The Chicago way

there's a tendency in parts of the left to believe that 'community' is the answer to everything but communities are often horrendous!

Chaos again, feds tackling protesters at random. They just detained @peoplesfabric.com.

Our Democratic leaders are worse than worthless. Just a complete waste of oxygen, bred in a test tube by a focus group to be as mealy-mouthed centrist as possible.

Somehow more spineless than Pelosi???

We the People are with Chicago in demanding and end to ICE terrorism! Live-stream via @statuscoupnews.bsky.social. #Broadview #Chicago

The idea of the 'Protestant Work Ethic' is one of the greatest singular meme viruses to infect society. Work for its own sake is the ideology of a forced labor camp; Not a virtue.

This is a must read article...no pay wall If you're not following, it's time to.

My dream is for Cascadia to be like Scotland (prior to Brexit): an autonomous nation within a full customs union that includes all the free nations of North America.

"The push for #Cascadia autonomy must be a non-violent movement, no matter what violence the right-wing brings down upon us in retaliation." cascadia-journal.ghost.io/cascadia-and...

The suggestion that chemical agents like tear gas or pepper spray could be used indiscriminately against peaceful demonstrators, or even first responders, is unacceptable and not normal.

Whether it be in Broadview here in Illinois or in Portland, Oregon, the Trump Administration is intentionally creating chaos to threaten sending military troops to American cities and suburbs.

I’m at the Diller Room in Seattle and that “867-5309/Jenny” one-hit wonder by Tommy Tutone is playing. I don’t particularly care for the song, but I picked my current mobile number because its last five digits are the same as Jenny’s, and if I had been born female my name would’ve been Jennifer.

Dude describes the setup in very specific details. Almost like from personal experience.

Added alt text, because jfc. These guys are so far beyond "are we the baddies"

Trump's Portland 'war' zone is really one driveway in front of an ICE facility that has been the site of violent frederal overreation for months: share.google/bhVYxRssA5qj...

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record. I just don't know what to say anymore.

You can't joke about anything anymore. Because you signed a multi figure contract with the Saudi government that said they wouldn't pay you if you did.

We are watching a coordinated right-wing takeover of popular media and it won’t stop here. archive.today/bXzZd

Cities make America great

Dear news outlets: Link to the actual things you're writing about. A lawsuit? Link to it. A previous court ruling? Link to it. A bill? Yup, link. So often we instead get a link to that outlet's past coverage, only to learn the original story also didn't link to the source. This is bad. Stop it.

Listen to someone who has been through it under Putin.

Portland is a beautiful and vibrant city—it is not a war zone.     The President needs to keep the military out of the Pacific Northwest.   This is yet another abuse of power. Leaders across America—in government, business, everywhere—need to push back.

Just in from the ICE facility in Portland

Multiple organizers I trust who have been a regular presence at Broadview are advising folks not to protest there tonight. For a number of reasons, they are worried that fatal force could be used against protesters tonight. They are calling for folks to regroup and return Friday morning.

#mutualaid Pls help if you can!
