Starting to think the “they voted for this” posts are an op/organized bloc. Poss confirmation bias bc I’m getting tons of them, but they’re p effective at distracting ppl - including me! - thereby shifting focus

Another new print from Sam Wallman! justseeds.org/product/no-p...

ny state government, what are your plans? we saw this coming. you must have too. are we diverting dollars from funding mass surveillance into rural hospitals, and feeding children? I hope to hell these conversations are happening.

Republicans just voted to murder 140 Americans a day, every single day of the year. They're killing 51,000 of a us a year.

We are going to have depressed wages, more crime, more suicide, more hunger, less social services, and less providers and it's going to happen quicker than people think. You group that with rural healthcare being battered, and this is a social experiment in how to create trauma.

the child care system is already overburdened... “We already know that there's not enough care, so we cannot expect people to work to get these things when, if they have young children, they will not be able to find that care.”

"“We are overwhelmed. Every day, we see more children arriving with extreme weight loss, anemia, and symptoms of immune deficiency."

All I see here is top notch ball security, elite contact balance, a willingness to grind out tough yards btwn the tackles, and surprising burst after he finds daylight

Don't be intimidated by the colossal challenge of 'saving the world'; there are as many worlds as there are people -- save *yours*, the one made up of the life you share with those around you. Where one flower blooms, a million more will follow. -page 160

Dear Dems: this is what we want. This is who we want. Listen to us.

TRUMP: We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing.

This was not a full-page ad I was expecting to see in the Sunday NYTimes today

Leaving this here.

The person addressing America is not the president. He’s a terrorist.

Among the reasons I loved GYWO and admired David so much is the date of this first strip, just a month after 9/11. So it was about invading Afghanistan, not Iraq (yet). For younger people - this comic was totally opposite where the country was at then. People only turned against the wars later.

Join us in condemning Trump’s entering war with Iran by calling your reps. 👉 Find their info at bit.ly/hellorep And amplify Rep. Ro Khanna’s call for an emergency session of Congress to impose real checks and prevent further unilateral strikes. #50501Movement #FiftyFiftyOne #PeoplesMovement

So... what are the Dems going to do now that Trump says we have bombed Iran?

“If you are a citizen, an immigrant, anyone on this land: You are not illegal. That doesn’t make you less of a human.” The Trump admin has sought to punish Mahmoud for his advocacy in support of Palestinian human rights. But everyone in this country has the right to speak out. Our fight continues.

Also from October 2024: "Without massive, unconditional U.S. military subsidies, Israel would have had to practice diplomacy with their neighbors years ago."

an easy disguise: all you’d need are some black masks

Over 100 days after Mahmoud Khalil was unjustly arrested and detained because of his advocacy for Palestinian rights, he has been released on bail. We celebrate that Mahmoud will finally be home with his wife and newborn son while his case proceeds.

There is actually a very accurate historical document of the post-9/11 vibes. A clipart comic called Get Your War On. Click on through: www.mnftiu.cc/2001/10/09/w...

Stockton, CA: Heavily armed masked kidnappers drove up in an unmarked car and pulled a landscaper out of his truck and kidnapped him. When the landscaping company owner asked the men what they were doing, the kidnappers assaulted him and pulled out a metal baton.

The framing in this piece by @batallonbakunin.bsky.social is super helpful for thinking about anti-deportation struggles: taking concrete action to physically prevent the state machinery from carrying out its program, rather than just symbolically protesting against it.

@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

I have a new hero. This owl stole a child's hobby horse and flies around with it!

@jeremotographs.bsky.social was hit by a foam baton round in downtown Los Angeles; he’s an accredited and talented reporter who was clearly operating in the business of news gathering. I’m not sure how far away he was, but looks awfully close to less than within the recommended 15-30 feet.

. @theglutster.bsky.social is on the ground dodging fire from police as they attack peaceful protesters on the 4th day of demonstrations against ICE.

Who do I have to yell at to get this fucking liar and everyone who didn’t correct her fired? This is dangerous

This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊
