I really can't stress how important it is for progressive and leftists to contend for school, library, water, etc etc boards. Hyper local involvement in our communities where we can actually influence lives.

When a printer works without incident in a show/movie, is that fantasy or science fiction?

After much deliberation and a grueling interview process, I’m pleased to announce that I’ve accepted a new job and will not need any financial support from my parents to cover the high costs of childcare going forward. #AmericanDream #ThisIsYourCity

Still at $56.73/2241.22 would be sick to move forward on this tbh. I’d love to post a more uplifting number showing the gap has shrunk. 🖤🤎💕💸 #mutualaid #helpfolkslive

Wow, fuck this guy. Sorry, but it's impossible for students to consent to this, the power differential is insane.

This is the first story I ever did that got more than a million views

*131!

Somehow it never crossed my mind that this man was still teaching classes. Classes with young women in them.

It's clowns all the way down.

If you hadn't already been boycotting McDonald's in support of Palestine....

In case you could also use some good news today… the UK has banned the resale of tickets for more than their original face value Canada is building a high speed train between Ontario and Quebec

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

My housing situation is about to be resolved in pretty much the best way I can imagine and I’m exceptionally grateful.

I mean I wasn’t gonna say it but lets say it

really sad to hear of alice wong’s death. she taught us a lot, and she tried to teach us even more.

So Harvard is keeping this guy, but Claudine Gay had to step down over ginned up plagiarism accusations and bad-faith accusations of anti-Semitism. Got it.

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas at corporate stores nationwide are on strike! For 4 years, they have fought tirelessly for a fair contract, and Starbucks has responded by union-busting. America’s unions stand in solidarity with baristas. We have your backs! ✊

Today is my birthday. I would like many things but from you specifically I want $2,500 for @scarleteen.com's annual fundraiser, which is supporting staff & volunteer healthcare this year. We need $2,500 to unlock a $10,000 match and this would really make my day! Donate to my campaign page here.

My parents are exhausted from everything they’ve lost. A simple gesture can ease a weight I can’t lift alone. 🙏

KIRO 7 ran an article and two TV pieces on the theft of a box truck full of arcade PCBs, artwork, and machines from my workplace yesterday. If anyone in the Seattle area sees someone offloading a ton of CPS2/NAOMI/Neo Geo PCBs, stuff of that nature, please reach out. www.kiro7.com/news/local/g...

The Black Linguist in me suspects “bring receipts” became a part of AAVE (and now mainstream spoken English) because Black people are often disbelieved and accused of stealing when we try to return purchased goods for a refund.

I don't want to hear shit about how Newsom is standing up to Trump. A judge has issued a stay preventing the feds from yanking the CDLs of legal immigrants but @governor.ca.gov is going forward with it anyway. Just like he's persecuting trans people anyway.

Can’t stop thinking about Alice Wong today. I couldn’t do any of what I’ve done and hope to do with disability justice in libraries without the foundation she laid, and I suspect that’s true of a lot of people in a lot of different disciplines. I hope she knew what an impact she made.

Summary of nested posts: Wong was laid off by the new Teen Vogue junta, then died, and her column is already off the website. Commentary: TV will claim that this is simply policy. But ofc that is also a choice. A choice to erase, to closet, to deny agency, honor, respect. SO EASY to do better BUT..

Want to honor Alice Wong and her work? Wear a damn mask!

Dear San Antonio, but ESPECIALLY Black San Antonio, or, anyone else who wants solid healthcare for birthing people round that way, my midwifery sib Shiphrah is launching her practice and could use your support (and a few specific items).

Absolutely begging for an end to the bright red parody maga hat, no one reads the text, it just looks like a maga hat!!!!

Our tents were trapped between floods whose depth I couldn’t even measure rain rising around us like walls, as we sank into mud and water, fighting the storm with all its rain, thunder, and lightning… just as we once fought bullets.

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

A year and a month later & we're suffering another gutting loss to our community. The MA community has been decimated in the year since by bad actors and those who listened to them. Support folks in need directly, while theyre still alive, please.

One of the worst nights; tents were blown away, children were terrified, and tents were flooded.

I’m broken hearted over the passing of Alice Wong. What a human. In her memory, I will be donating to the project she co-founded, Crips for eSims, which has raised over 3 million dollars so that Palestinians in Gaza can stay in contact with the world & one another. chuffed.org/project/crip...

Love to see community action against this AI nonsense! neighborhoodview.org/2025/11/13/d...

ONLY ON ASSIGNED MEDIA: Fenway Health's annual gala Friday drew protests and cries of "Shame!" after the LGBTQ community health center ended care for trans people under 19. @evanurquhart.bsky.social was there. (repost with updated thumbnail) www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

I KNEW IT. if it was autoimmune, I wouldn't be able to settle a flare down with a specific massage pattern. But I can.

A real loss. Rest in power, Alice Wong.

For those scoffing - my whole impoverished life is a slide toward the purposeful social death our country has picked for me. This is being on SSDI, never having what you need. Living isnt put on hold because of emergency states when youre always in what others would consider crisis. Help instead:

I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed. Here are the words she left behind: www.instagram.com/p/DREMDNBjnq...

Oh fuck, ah hell and shit i just found out that we lost @sfdirewolf.bsky.social. i just… ah fuck.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
