“We’re not starting a war, we’re ending one” was a Russian talking point on Ukraine — four years ago.

Opposite day everyday.

Mood in minneapolis right now

The term martyr means “witness.” The man was murdered for bearing witness, literally bearing it, not arms but a camera. Murdered for seeing.

Not a “paid protester.” Not an Antifa battalion commander. Not “bussed in from out of state.” A registered nurse at the VA who broke no laws and cared about humanity. Murdered by the Trump Administration.

Watching now in Minneapolis it looks like Iraq or Ukraine under battle. Crying and screaming..people being murdered and maimed..how is this America?? #Ice #Minneapolis

“Do not get lost in a sea of despair.” - John Lewis #RIP

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “All of us, citizens and immigrants alike, are being ruled by people who think life is a privilege bestowed by authority, and death is a fair penalty for disobedience,” our columnist Michelle Goldberg writes.

The worst people on earth are running our government

#MinneapolisShooting The Shot Heard Round the World. This needs to be the end of ICE. SPREAD THE MINNEAPOLIS VIDEO!

‘Because Trump isn’t just a rogue, out-of-control president, America is a rogue state. And the longer we fail to acknowledge that, the more danger we are in.’

this image is haunting me right now.

This is how you do it. No preamble to swear to God you don't like Maduro.

Somehow I don't think Bluesky will ever be a real player in the world of media until "Caturday" is less important than America being a lawless state and starting regime change. Happy 2026!

Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins. It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia. The contrast between russia’s destructive nature and the Ukrainian will to create beauty even in the darkest times is palpable.

[Supplementary and topic-adjacent: It is a matter of some surprise to me that the greatest Christmas album of all time (fact, not interested in spurious counter arguments) is 13 years old. Good Lord. @traceythorn.bsky.social’s Tinsel & Lights. Perfection.] open.spotify.com/album/4Z3dFc...

The fascists are not inevitable. They're not unstoppable. They're not all powerful. They want you to think that, but millions turned out last month to call their bluff. And millions turned out today to claim our power. We will win.

Halloween from Down Under I love Kangaroos Just had to share (sound up) 🎃🤣

🇺🇸 One of the things that gave me great heart (among many) during Saturday's No Kings rallies was the number of American flags that were flying. Because WE, not them, represent the ideals that the United States was founded upon. It's about damn time the REAL patriots finally recaptured the flag ...

ANTIFA:

No Kings. October 18th. Free speech is action. Please join in. www.nokings.org

Is anything going to stop this descent into totalitarian hell?

The great Tom Petty, gone eight years ago today. Of “I Won’t Back Down”, he said: more fans connected to the song “than anything I ever wrote. I've had so many people tell me that it helped them. .. I'm still amazed about the power a little three-minute song has.” 🙏🏼 #RIP

Oregon is our home – not a military target.

Duck you, Trump.

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

The slow death of a democracy by many cuts.

Nor the president, the president is not a king or a dictator. I dissent. I resist. #freespeech #jimmykimmel #thePentagon

📌I have expanded on the media's appalling coverage of Charlie Kirk's death here. 📌They are gaslighting us, insulting our sensibilities, and making light of our fears, when WE have been warning about the dangers of overt racism and gun violence for decades. 📌D0 NOT LET THEM FRAME THIS MOMENT.
