“With so many marginalized communities, we’re basically the oracles…we’re the ones who see shit before it happens.” In June 2020, I interviewed Alice Wong for TVU before she lost her ability to speak. I asked her how she’d first learned of SARS-CoV-2. She began with the 2016 election of Trump:

There are people you never have the honor of knowing but you feel the ripple effects of their person and their work from the folks who have met them. Alice Wong made waves that went far. A tremendous loss. Memory eternal.

Alice Wong created a feed about disability justice. We were lucky to be able to share this space with her. bsky.app/profile/did:...

She was extraordinary, and extraordinarily generous. Alice Wong: I am so grateful to have been alive in her lifetime. She was one of our species' best. She deserved better. My her legacy be for a blessing.

RIP Alice Wong, author, #HumanRights activist, disabled warrior and fierce with it! Farewell @sfdirewolf.bsky.social 😢 If you haven't heard of Alice Wong, here's an interview from earlier in 2025 on her receiving a 2024 MacArthur ‘genius’ award. 🏆 www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

🧵 Rest in power, Alice Wong. @sfdirewolf.bsky.social A trailblazer, a fierce advocate, and a relentless voice for disability rights. Her work changed the landscape for so many. /1

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’ —Alice Wong

Now do the SFUSD project 2025 appointment

Well that was fast.

I was the person who always wanted the data to be correct. I thought I was an asset, but companies don’t like my kind.

Every time that ts song comes on the radio my brain plays Kayla as Toni.

A legally blind Waymo passenger was stranded in a multilane road when her robot failed to handle a traffic light outage and also failed to pull to the curb, in Atlanta. Police crossed "6 lanes of traffic" to rescue her, then drove her to work. "No more Waymo for me" OP: tiktok.reportingblind

We used to lay in bed and talk to each other in the 1900s.

Please share!

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

oh right

what does this remind me of…

continuing to update this resource for SNAP recipients in the Bay Area — now with 31 food businesses/restaurants where folks can get free or subsidized hot meals 💖 www.coyotemedia.org/these-bay-ar...

Clipper 2.0 is going to revolutionize how we get around the Bay. Something as simple as taking the bus to the train will be rewarded, not punished. From my house in Berkeley to my friends in the Castro could be literally half the price as today. Check it out: clipper2.hikingbytransit.com 🧵 1/7

And this is why the corporate class shut down Teen Vogue.

I’m gutted by this decision. So many excellent editors and writers impacted. My column, Disability Visibility is no more as well. Many thanks to Allegra for giving me this amazing opportunity www.teenvogue.com/contributor/...

We can discern the people from the government

And we need to center Black women. The demographic that doesn’t need a college education to spot facisism.

California passes proposition 50, which will mean multiple anti-LGBTQ+ Republican congress people will likely lose their seat. A continual bloodbath for anti-LGBTQ+ Republicans tonight.

Blumenthal: We’re going to continue finding more of the ballroom donors who evidently didn’t want their names revealed. And let me name them: BlackRock, Susquehanna International, Nvidia, OpenAI, Vantive, and Extremity Care. And so, we will use every possible resource to expose this corruption to

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

This is so bad. Teen Vogue had some of the last quality political coverage in the mainstream media.

Way too many subs for Sam Altman in the comments re: KitKat’s death by Waymo

Semi-Retired Street Artist Calls for Redecoration of Waymos in Memory of KitKat

This is the longest thread I’ve ever posted, but it includes vitally important information for anyone enrolling in healthcare coverage via the ACA exchanges starting tomorrow. Of course you could just visit the link & read the blog post instead, but that doesn’t include the fun GIFs.

“Kill a Waymo! Save a Cat!” read a sign placed on the altar. “Kitty cats, not killer cars,” yelled a woman as she walked by.

All my subscription services- cannot do a Julia Roberts marathon.

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

There is literally not one person who can exist in modern society without using the big tech platforms daily, at least indirectly. That doesn’t mean it’s futile to try to reduce dependency or investment, but I also am not judging anyone harshly for that, least of all those who are most vulnerable.

"it was important to me growing up" a vitally important part of becoming an adult is accepting that some things and people you once enjoyed or believed in were wrong or bad and it's actually good to leave those things behind !!!!

Another Waymo robot failed to handle paving construction properly. Notice it stops w hazard lights on, then moves a little, then stops. Possibly telops engaged and nudged it unsuccessfully. OP: tiktok.manueldelariva3

Here’s a little joy for you because we all need it

Y’all, Spotify’s stock price sunk by 5% in 1 day. YOU did this by spreading the word to boycott them for running ICE ads. These billionaires only speak one language—money—so let’s keep up the pressure. Tell everyone you know to cancel their Spotify subscriptions. Send them to BoycottSpotify.com.

I personally wouldn’t take legal advice from Stephen Miller but then again i’m not failing an open book test.

Today’s a good day to give cash to an unhoused person for them to use however they want!

Bay Resistance has announced a rally and march this Thursday at 5pm, starting at San Francisco's Embarcadero Plaza. There will also be upcoming meetups at libraries around the Bay Area later on. Details at www.bayresistance.org/get-ready

The photo: The comments you will laugh at:

Waymo robot illegally in an intersection, again: Townsend at 4th, SF California specifically outlawed this, less to protect peds than to improve traffic & reduce rear end collisions Waymo has frequently. Doing it in a left turn lane like this is worse than a through lane. OP: tiktok.iraqi.sugar

Kelly Clarkson (43), not knowing Renee Goldsberry’s (54) age, was like, girl, “I’m older than you…” 😂
