I can't remember if I showed y'all this?

Look forward to Bari Weiss asking "has identity politics gone too far?" while studiously ignoring the most virulent identity politics driving American government

really went dark for the sequel

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing. And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Now this is journalism. Point it out. POINT IT THE FUCKOUT. They are PRETENDING to not get it.

This is fundamentally Nazism. The idea that different peoples than the favored races carry degradation in their very genes, that they cannot strive to become better because biology compels them to be worse. It’s not just repugnant, it’s a bald faced lie.

You’ll see that candidates who won are breaking the pundit stranglehold and realizing you can campaign on economic issues AND values/identity. We’re breaking that pointless habit of calling our opponents good people with whom we happen to disagree. We’re calling them monsters. And winning.

This is the correct take. Stewing in white supremacist propaganda is bad for your thinking. And if think you are so savvy that it won’t impact you, you are the exact kind of mark they are slowly converting (I’m looking at you, centrist pundits).

Pentecostalism is an African American religious movement. There's been whitewashing. Charles Parham a racist gets credited as being the founder (he wasn't) came to L.A. and saw William Seymour's Azusa Mission and was horrified at what he saw. especially that white people who joined a Black church.

I'm old. If you're not, listen to this. Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder. Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever. It's literally never been more important.

Every year around this time, I ask folks to consider doing something in support of Native people. This year, please join me in supporting the Native Organizers Alliance as they build grassroots power, defend Native voting rights, and equip our people for collective struggle through skill-building.

Corporate Media is going to pretend that Trump is heartbroken about the two West Virginian National Guardsmen being shot in DC, but the entire point of moving a standing army into a peaceful city was to induce violence by The People to justify more violence by Trump on The People in retaliation.

NEW: The two shot National Guard troops never should have been in DC. More troops is no answer. The violence is horrible and unacceptable. Trump, Pete Hegseth, and West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey never should have put the troops in this position. Tonight, at Law Dork:

When I get my T shifted to a shot, I should not pick Wednesday as my day to do it

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.

Watch out for your neighbors in DC today. Give folks cash if you see them so they can at least get indoors for a bit.

I’m having a difficult time due to a lot of work loss + health issues limiting what I can pursue. I could use some support. TY. • thetrudz.com/shop book, tees, prints & more 💸 • cash.me/thetrudz • tinyurl.com/paypal-thetrudz • venmo.com/u/thetrudz

I know that politicians absolutely need to offer a deeper vision than "we're not Republicans" in order to secure people's votes, but really, at this point, that could even just be "…and we'll fix what they broke (and what was broken before they started)" or even just "We'll Put A Stop To All This."

Today, in Utah, homeowners *or renters* can simply buy a solar panel at Costco, take it home, and plug it in to a wall socket, like an appliance. It just sits there & trims about 15-20% off a residential power bill. If you move to another apt., you can take it with you.

Beautiful series of images by Eduard Pechuël-Loesche from an 1888 book on the strange skies produced the world-over after the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa.⠀⠀ More here: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/studies-on-twilight-phenomena-after-krakatoa

fuck you the memories of a generation lost because of Reagan's homophobia will not be erased i think we should do something in DC that would make david wojnarowicz proud tbh

Hello, please recommend to me non-fiction that might be interesting to listen to on a road trip. I'm looking for a book, but I'll take podcast recommendations too

do you have any idea how much you have to piss somebody off to make them change their gauge

almost every novelist you read who's not from the airport fiction or bestseller sections is working a full on day job, including multi-award winners and absolute legends, or they have a spouse or trust that supports them. virtually across the board. just normalize in your mind that's how it works.

Mayor Muriel Bowser announced today that she won’t be seeking a fourth term in office next year. This creates a huge opening for the 2026 D.C. mayoral race. But first, what legacy will Mayor Bowser leave? @maustermuhle.bsky.social reflects here:

Lord, I see what you've done for others......

I don’t think most people who weren’t *in it* with us mean to ignore or minimize. I think people remember who they remember, and that’s not a good or bad thing. I am trying to make things right because of HOW Shafiqah and Ra’il have lived since then. And how Shafiqah died; especially.

The late Shafiqah Hudson, aka @sassycrass.bsky.social, and @sotreu.blacksky.app were the ones who started #YourSlipIsShowing. I ask that you remember Shafiqah and Ra’il as the originators.

Tokens get spent. Pet to threat. All that shit.

Something that has made me a prison abolitionist is seeing first hand how incapable the state is of running any place of confinement (prison, jail, psych hospital, etc.) in a way that is not wildly unsafe to both inmates and staff and that doesn't devolve into barbarism, abuse, and predation.

This is the context you have to keep in mind when you see these people hyperventilating about addressing this system. This is what they are demanding we preserve literally at any and every cost. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/24/n...

Damn how y'all let trans people ruin boobs for you? Sounds like a personal problem. Boobs are the gift that keeps on giving.

"My mentor always tells me, 'Kim, dogs don’t bark at parked cars." They’re coming after critical race theory, 1619, intersectionality because these ideas mobilized people. They gave them the language to actually articulate what they were seeing with their own eyes," says Kimberlé Crenshaw.

@thefrankiedlc.news is one of the best reporters and commentators out here. Support the journalists doing the right thing if you can.

ICE has long used the latest spy tech to pursue immigrants — but now it’s also targeting anti-ICE protesters and anyone who allegedly funds them. bit.ly/3Kq348R

So this is interesting because Scouts just decided that not only can there be both boys troops and girls troops, but that there can be mixed gender "family" troops. I wonder if that's got something to do with this stupid freakout

Is it a 'masculine value' to melt down about some new fake shit every week?

I miss when the Internet actually worked

Spiritualism skyrocketed in the US after its brutal Civil War killed roughly 750,000 people - and now in the wake of Covid’s million+ death toll, modern Americans are using ChatGPT to speak with the spirits. In this paper I will

People are always like real job stability is in medicine or the law, but the most secure job is actually white guy writes op-eds about how he’s sick of the minorities.

"People are poor and that's not enriching the rich"

This is the political fallout of the “down with woke” stance so many people opposed to the “establishment” are praising today.

Picked up the last of my new meds today. Spending a truly wild amount of time putting needles in myself these days.
