Knowing who to be mad at is part of the work. Always.

Hey look! I found an alligator in New York City!!! 😁

Civilians in Tehran are reporting toxic oily rain following US and Israeli airstrikes on oil storage facilities. An estimated 10 million people face exposure to hazardous chemicals, with risks including skin burns and lung damage.

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

Ok, that’s the happiest I’ve ever seen Marco. 😬

Oh, honey, here’s the thing: Those of us who voted for the qualified lady WANT answer that question. Like, we are over here trying not to be obnoxious about it.

A week after over a hundred people were killed at a girls' school. ***Primal scream***

Do the pro-lifers realize there are pregnant women in this city whose unborn children are going to suffer from this. They gonna speak up, or nah?

The autopen could not be reached for comment.

IDK that sounds like something the bad guys would say.

i am asking yet again how it is legal for a company to send me a letter saying "sorry somebody stole all your personal information from us and now they have all of your personal information. sucks to be you! bye!" and then they receive no consequences and it happens again a week later

Lots of us end up footing the bill thru GoFundMes. I'm not criticizing that. But it feels like another scam where billionaires keep getting tax breaks while the rest of us try to keep each other alive. Madness. I hope she gets the surgery she needs. And I hope we can fix the ACTUAL problem.

It’s Women’s History Month. Rather than post factoids I’m just gonna post a picture and a name and y’all can google why they’re important. Knowledge for you without a lot of free labor from me. Win win. Today’s prompt is Maria Tallchief (because some of us like ballet)

Tonight, while hanging out w/ friends, a laser pointer started flashing around the room. In MN! In 2026?!! We froze. I went outside & it was a couple of my former students (& current neighbors) goofing around. 😑

It’s called “vetting,” asshole. You’re running for a high-profile U.S. Senate seat with zero political experience. Of COURSE they’re gonna dig into your past. That’s standard. Once again: Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t have a clue how anything works.

So, the Iranian people, to determine their own future, are expected to capitulate to, "unconditional surrender?" Sigh. WTF?

…

It’s time to reveal the billionaire donors flooding American elections with potent dark money. I’m introducing the DISCLOSE Act with Senator Whitehouse and Rep. Pappas to make our money-drenched elections more transparent for all citizens.

One. Billion. A. Day. 🤯

So, a concept of a plan, based on alternative facts, that will be made public in two weeks?

Today a student asked me what candy was like when I was a kid. And THEN she asked, with a straight face, "So, how old were you when chocolate was introduced?" Y'ALLLLLLLLLLLLL ☠️👵😩😂

We can’t clean up Washington without restoring integrity to the Supreme Court. That’s why I believe we should expand the Supreme Court to 13 justices. And then, institute term limits. Because an appointment to the Supreme Court shouldn’t mean a lifetime lack of accountability.

I feel like such an curmudgeon when it comes to anything written by AI - emails, student work, whatever. If a human can't be bothered to say what they want, I can't be bothered to read it. My brain simply does not gaf. Sorry, not sorry.

“If [wealthy, powerful people] can get us to accept that the future’s already settled, AI is already here, the end is already here, then we will create that for them. My most daring idea is to refuse.” — @tressiemcphd.bsky.social

I'll even go so far as to say all voters should be required to vote, and the state should make that as easy as breathing. You wanna submit a blank ballot? Ok, cool. You do you. But the state should be on the hook to make voting so easy that every voter can easily do it.

Everyone should be angry about this because all voters should be able to vote.

The Texas Supreme Court just blocked the judge’s order that would have kept Democratic polls open until 9 p.m. But don't let them trick you: anyone who was in line by 7PM STILL has the legal right to vote and have it counted. Anyone after will have their vote collected, but counting isn’t certain.

Billionaires are a scourge. "Billionaire-ism" is a pathology that should be studied, and taxed out of existence. No good person wants to hoard massive resources at the expense of society, and then use those resources to bend society to their will.

Monday was... checks notes... yesterday.

So... they try to seize Venezuela's oil infrastructure. Drive up the price of oil by attacking Iran. Then the Pentagon, which doesn't pass audits, & is getting more money than god, is now asking for MORE taxpayer money to fund a war that will make some folks filthy rich? It's a big, violent grift?

What is it trump once said? He hires, "only the best people." Righty-oh.

My rage is hot today. The absolute fury.

New portrait. Senior vs Freshman year

Talked recently with someone who has some shitty neighbors, and was daunted by the idea of reaching out to those people for hyperlocal organizing. I asked if there were people with anti-ICE or other good window signage who lived nearby. They said yes. I suggested they try to meet those people first.

incredible, he did the joke

CNN put together a montage of the regime's incoherent talking points about Trump's war on Iran

It's wild how no-nonsense competence is viewed as leadership in men, but "terrifying" in women.

just became aware of this--the regime wants to clear-cut massive chunks of Oregon's old growth forests in the name of timber production. you have until March 23rd to comment. i know we have endless fucking things to scream at politicians about--this is an important one too.

The worst thing is seeing so many people, especially elders, change from their pre-social media selves to their post social media selves. People have always been weird, sexist, bigoted etc, but it's just really something seeing folks go from seemingly reasonable to outright laughing at suffering.

Wait... I thought the Iranian people were supposed to be in charge of their future? Didn't Graham make the teevee shows today to say, "having a plan for Iran isn't Trump's job?" These folks gotta get their lies straight.

It feels like the 80s/90s, "I don't watch/follow the news" has become the 2020s, "I don't watch/follow politics." Only there was social stigma to being uninformed abt the news. There is understanding for folks who, "don't do politics." Bring back social disapproval for being uniformed.

We are absolutely desperate for people that can send money through Zelle. We have like 6 March needs to close and they are all Zelle.

Notes from the ground in MN: One thing that feels clear is that the atomization of ppl in recent decades has left folks deeply hungry for community. The Occupation was a catalyst for folks to step out & make it happen. If we can sustain it, this is the groundwork for a more connected future.

This is unhinged. They aren’t even trying to make sense any more

At least 20% of USians will support any horrible thing. So this means that this war is deeply unpopular among regular people.

I went through and added up the total paid rents through our adopt-a-rent program, and it is 329 families for $463,217. All peer-to-peer, no fundraising. Just neighbors helping each other out. If you want to adopt a family, and can afford to give $500 or more, signal me at asiniiwiikwe.72

I don’t even know anymore. War, the senseless murder of civilians, pedophiles in power, just a whole lot of fuckshit.
