bsky is making this so hard when their leadership is this miserable and reactionary and petty and intent on stamping out any bit of goodwill left for them, for an "own"

someone must have told gavin the game involves destroying hastily built shelters

REQUEST: People who would be willing to mail me old seed packets of theirs for my garden shop. I am ramping up my propagation to feed my community here. I have been preparing infrastructure to give away edible plant starts to community members who want that option for slight food independence.

My friend Mohammed is so young and so terrified. He deserves to live. Please, please help him. Please. 💔

Sadly, Mr Stake passed this morning. Nick still needs help, though. If you can safely lend a dollar, that would be much appreciated.

If you live in Illinois, we need your help. This will take less than five minutes and will truly pressure your local elected officials to stand with the people rather than ICE.

Ted Cruz just posted a video montage with photos of every Democratic senator altered to make them wear sombreros and mustaches. It’s set to the song Macarena. What the fuck are we doing here?

This is specifically to deny intelligence capabilities to protestors and activists.

I had to expunge my thoughts on Bluesky's current, uh, choppy waters into a proper blog post (which jay can't take down for being too mean or saying 'lol' in a threatening way) azhdarchid.com/delusions-of...

Please do what you can to support Lubna and Nasser bsky.app/profile/lps...

if i were a would-be dictator whose only civilian check on power had been consumed by total-complete partisan loyalty, something i would definitely do is call an unprecedented in-person meeting of the only people who could stop me and then proceed to illustrate why they should stop me

As someone who uses weed for chronic pain and chronic illness medicinally, the inability of most people to see how obviously politicians reschedule weed as a way to curry cheap political favor or create a distraction is exhausting. Weed shouldn't be scheduled, and it is used as a political play.

The "deal" from today does NOT involve Palestinian people. It is a conference where various powers decide what to do with Palestinian land and people... With no Palestinian people able to advocate for themselves.

By the way folks, Today is Soad's birthday... 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 Suad needs our help. Beside food, water & winter clothing she needs a place where to spend the winter that protects her & her child Omar, who is sick with hepatitis C, from the cold. Please donate &/or share. tinyurl.com/ycxdtddx

From Gaza I write with my hands shaking. I can't buy food, clothes or even medicine for my family anymore😢 Every day I feel like I'm drowning, screaming for help in the dark💔 I can't stand alone anymore. Please don't leave me. I'm so tired of the difficulty of the situation😭🙏🏻 gofund.me/de96cb50

Please support Alaa and her dreams, please help her build a future for herself and her family worth living in @mamatwins

Me, in hell, explaining the Current Situation to a paleolithic hunter gatherer: so he controls all of this thing called "money", which is sometimes paper and sometimes bits which... I guess is just magic, basically, anyway he owns everything so we're all trapped within this system called capitalism

Today I appeal to the world to hear our cry 💔 We live without a home, without safety, surrounded by fear and hunger.. Humanity is the only hope we have left 🌍🙏 Help us save our lives and protect our children from being lost. Donate, share, do anything to help me🙏🙏 chuffed.org/project/1388...

Comedians are just people, meaning their morality is similarly susceptible to corruption and coercion. Clever wordplay / occasionally disarming insight does not imply they are "truthsayers," nor that they are morally extraordinary. Many of them are closer to grifters than "philosophers."

Everyone who says "antifa" is bad to me gets the same response. I make them repeat their statement with the whole word "antifascist". They get real squirmy about it.

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

RFK Jr.’s “review” of mifepristone is no neutral act. It’s a signal to allies, a wedge for states, and a precedent for future rollbacks.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Hitler's people basically told the senior commanders of the Wehrmacht (German Armed Forces) the same thing in 1933: they either fight the 'enemy within' (Germany's communists, Jews and others) or they resign their commands.

It’s like listen to Black people. Give Black people the mic. Believe Black people. Elevate Black people. What’s so hard?! It vanishes a lot of problems overnight. But it’s the one thing they don’t want to do.

This Cassandra curse shit where no one hears any warning of the obvious until it arrives fucking sucks. You wanna know the future, it's being laid out as warnings by folks you have been taught to disdain. Listen to Black & Indigenous women & femmes! Listen to the folks at the fringes of 'society'!

Firstly, Hamas has been offering back all hostages in exchange for a permanent ceasefire for years. There is no war. It is a genocide. Here is an article from a recent time Hamas offered to return all hostages www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/2/...

In 1948, the newly created state of Israel attacked Palestinians who were living on their ancestral lands. This is called the Nakba, which roughly translates as "the calamity". The Israeli government has been attacking Palestinian people, both in official and unofficial capacities, since then.

The "deal" of today is roughly equivalent to when the "great powers" of Europe met to "divide up Africa". They decided what land each of them "owned", went out and conquered it, enslaved and genocided the peoples already living there.

The US government has sent weapons, but also. We literally pay for universal healthcare for Israeli citizens, but not our own.

They argue it's about religion to distract from the fact that it's about colonialism, that it is about greed and territory conquest. It's proven to not be about religion by the sheer number of Jewish people and groups who oppose it vocally.

Free Palestine from the River to the Sea. Free them all. Give money directly to Palestinians if you can. Help them fundraise and cope if you can't. Pressure your government to Let Palestine Live. 🇵🇸 Thank you for reading. Please support my friends below. They need us.

Judge Young—who has been on the bench for as long as I have been alive—calls it the most important case he has ever considered.

Remember: Undocumented immigrants pay billions of dollars in taxes every year. They pay into government funded healthcare programs, but can't access them except in case of emergency. Emergency Medicaid spending accounted for less than 1% of total Medicaid spending in 2023.

If you're in a state of panic right now when you felt like things were going okay before, may I suggest you look to marginalized communities & disabled folks, start LISTENING to what they've been saying, and then follow THEIR lead into community building/strengthening that's been going on for years.

“AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society, and our descendants will be digging it out for generations.”

Listen, trans rights are human rights. Trans rights are bodily autonomy rights. Trans rights are healthcare rights. I don’t care if you “believe” in trans or not. Human are humans and all deserve to have control over their medical care, whether they be trans or not, women or not.

oh my god?

I keep coming back to what a complete tool this guy is he's got his Fox News haircut and thinks that because he can do push-ups on the parade ground he is the greatest military thinker in history what an unbelievable dipshit

I really wish the dems would actually fight for us. Like, filibuster the spending bill until we get GAC added to the budget like the anti-healthcare ghouls did with the Hyde Amendment.

Here's an extra special fuck you to everyone who called me paranoid for saying Trump would ban my healthcare if given power again.

AUTHORITY FIGURES THEN: don't do drugs ME: you got it AUTHORITY FIGURES NOW: Cmonnn just a little AI, just a sniff, just a taste, everyone's doing it, all your friends are doing it, it's so cool, don't you wanna be cool, I can't trust you if you don't, cmon cmonnn

Trump is laying the groundwork to come after your Social Security if he shuts the government down

My brother Ahmed desperately needs our help. His son Wajih is only four and is so sick. Please help. Please.

This whole section really.

TL;DR, the current CR doesn't have any risks to gender-affirming care. But the upcoming spending fight will and it's important to differentiate between the two, especially when it's information for a vulnerable population. Our job should be to seek truth and report it and minimize harm.

When we talk about fundraising for people in Gaza it is about survival, it is about getting out of the worst circumstances. We rarely discuss their dreams, hope, for rebuilding? What lives will be lived if the bombs were to stop falling tomorrow? Alaa is asking for support for her future

If you're wondering why they don't go to court with their high paid lawyers for an easy win, it's because this allows Google to bribe Trump. All the big players are way over their skis on AI investment and are sure they will need a bailout at some point. It's 2009 but for tech instead of housing

"We are asking the Department of War to deploy to our cities" should be a statement that ends any Governor's political career.
