Honest q - what season is it right now Cause I am sweating profusely but it was dark at 7 and stores have pumpkins in their windows

Good but why this guy and not any of the other many, many abuses recorded

Assata Shakur has "died in Havana, Cuba, as a result of health conditions and her advanced age." She was 78.

✊Today, hundreds of New Yorkers shut down the streets surrounding 26 Federal Plaza to make it clear that they will not stay silent as ICE commits violent & unlawful actions against our immigrant communities. Join us today at 6PM at Foley Square to demand #ICEOutofNY!

An in-depth look at what happened with Bluestockings www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

Mario Guevara has been detained by ICE for more than 100 days in retaliation for his reporting — even though a judge ordered his release on bond. An immigration court just ruled Mario could be deported at any moment. ICE must free him now.

Do any of the professors or journalists or teachers also get their jobs back or nah

Excited that @nycplan.org is officially on Bluesky!! You can follow our ongoing organizing here.

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like "A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act." fuck yeah

Read this to see if there was an objection to the supportive housing proposal based on anything other than stigma and nope I did learn that the ballot measures I got a weird text about today were added by Adams, so that's a no from me citylimits.org/housing-for-...

I'm paywalled out of finishing the article, but I gather the whereabouts of ~1200 people who were in ICE custody are now ... unknown amp.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

maybe it's for the best Brooklyn Defenders didn't hire me

"Of course men believe that if they pose as the state they can perpetrate the same violence the state often does to terrorize and violate women and victims, especially victims in more precarious positions" www.teenvogue.com/story/men-dr...

Bluestockings closing is a loss for many of us, but I'm thinking about the unhoused folks who were clearly building community there, in the hostile terrain that is hyper gentrified LES

Disney is on the BDS list. Don't resubscribe. Free Palestine.

SCOOP: I FOIA'd economic development agreements & the ground lease for Meta's massive data center in Louisiana and found the state secured no explicit mandates for Meta to create locally-hired full time jobs to receive property tax breaks www.wired.com/story/louisi...

At my highest stress level, I become basically catatonic and struggle to complete any task or even to move That’s where I am now - my point is, I would happily welcome a Rapture

The few jobs that I’ve applied and heard back from have all noted the incredible volume of applications So, feeling good about my options as my unemployment just ran out

"From Milan to Palermo, Italians poured on to the streets in at least 75 municipalities across the country. In Genoa and Livorno, dock workers blocked ports over concerns that Italy was being used as a staging post for the transfer of arms to Israel." www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

One trend I notice in nonprofit movement-ish field is including (what I consider) inappropriately personal and invasive questions w/in applications + interviews "what aspects of your identity and experiences make you a good fit for..." Absolutely not, no thank you

Mark Zuckerberg’s company faces backlash after rowing back promises to create between 300 and 500 new jobs to man its subsidiary’s new data center. www.wired.com/story/louisi...

All quotes from US officials are predictably disgusting But the quote from Ghana Foreign Minister is truly baffling - wtf is "pan-African empathy" ??? www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Some of you are watching that man's funeral/Nazi rally instead of fat grizzlies splashing around in a river and I'm not sure why

Fat Bear Week is here, for those of you who need it which is all of you explore.org/livecams/bro...

All summer, I’ve been speaking to a Nigerian mom of two kids who won fear-based protection in an immigration court. Under a previous admin, she would have likely been released, but ICE refused to let her out and tried to deport her to Ghana -> @motherjones.com www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Less of "immigrants aren't criminals" type discourse and more of this truthout.org/articles/bla...

Trying to understand www.cnn.com/2025/09/20/m...

Recognition of State of Palestine by Canada, France, UK etc is not only performative it is dangerous. It doesnt commit to ending genocide or implementing arms embargo and sanctions. Plus, explicitly calls for demilitarization of Palestine and disarming resistance. Reviving Oslo is not an option!

I need this site to allow for private accounts already, so the radicals can join and I can keep up with news and analysis that actually matters to me

Wow Honest question - what does this mean for the Gazan genocide?

"they took one of the protesters inside the facility—that’s the first time this has ever happened. We don’t know what happened to that person—we still don’t know where they are" newrepublic.com/article/2007...

Keep going

Came across this well-paying focus group opportunity on my desperate search to make quick $$ Residents of Queens County who wanna talk "social issues" for $375, the time is now: participant.facilitymanagerplus.com/StudyDetails...

I'm sad to no longer have access to 90s classics like Recess and Pepper Ann but looks like it was worth it

These late night show cancellations got me fucked up because it's a chilling sign of fascism, etc etc but I also don't gaf about these flavorless white men and their boring ass programming Anyway I cancelled my Disney + subscription

outside the detention/“processing” facility in broadview, illinois: a crowd of protesters, some of whom showed up before 5 am, is heckling ice agents arriving to work. a few minutes ago, special response team agents came out to push protesters away from the driveway. pepper balls already flying.

I liked the movie more than a lot of sex workers did, and way less than reviewers of mainstream press

Finally watched Anora and now I wanna read all the reviews

How is every fucking layer of electoral politics in this country about allegiance to Israel

Just now, 11 state and city lawmakers were arrested by DHS police on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza after a hour of demanding access to the ICE lock up on the same floor. @thecity.nyc

Thinking about the "male loneliness epidemic" when I log onto to Bumble BFF and see that everyone looking to expand their social circle is a woman

A lot to unpack in this excellent reporting by @nysfocus.bsky.social. For starters, not only has the number of ICE detention sites operating in NY State increased (five more since February—six, if you count Brooklyn MDC), but so has the churn of people through those jails.

"With ICE ramping up its use of dragnet tools to meet its deportation quotas and smoke out noncitizens who protest Israel’s war on Gaza, Silicon Valley’s willingness to accommodate these kinds of subpoenas puts those who speak out at greater risk" theintercept.com/2025/09/16/g...

2 Black teen girls were fighting in a subway station and *most* adults around them did nothing I was ultimately useless, approaching them but hesitating and a more competent adult pulled them apart first- but at least I knew what I should do! Other adults just walked away - what is going on?!

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

Relaxing this evening by catching up on all the terrible things happening in the country and globally www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

"Seven jails booked a total of nearly 2,800 people arrested for immigration reasons and detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the first seven months of 2025, up from only 500 booked in New York jails all of last year, according to ICE data — a nearly sixfold increase"

Feeling dismayed by the below quote from the detained man's lawyer - I for one do not anticipate the legal system seeing any "blazing paths to accountability"

"The hope is that the case 'will chart a path to holding federal officers or their employer accountable,' Miller explained, 'and that blazing the path to accountability will discourage this kind of treatment'" www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
