But when I asked an organizer what they wanted to see out of press coverage, they told me they wanted people to see the beautiful things they are building here, and not just the worst stories of the worst of ICE's crimes. What people are doing here is beautiful. It's a tragic beauty, but a real one

So annoying to realise how much of the way you see yourself was informed by one of your parents just naturally being a massive dickhead

Genuinely wild to hear a neoliberal western politician saying out loud that the United States operates as a global economic hegemon and that 'middle powers' function as tributary states of it. I guess all it takes is having the president directly threaten to abolish your country.

This past year I've been coming to terms with how much I was sleeping on Turkish food. When I was growing up I thought of it as dry or bland because I hadn't tried the right things. Ofc everyone likes kebabs and turkish delight, but there's so much more. Pide, gozleme, shakshuka, ice creams.

we've had years now of the far right railing against the concept of empathy, not just an emotion shared by decent people, not just a basic human survival instinct, but an instinct of every social animal species on the planet for countless millions of years

The New World asked me to speak to some British trans women about what life has been like for them over the past few years - here's what they had to say, in their own words: www.thenewworld.co.uk/marie-le-con...

BRO why is your hand on the scales you should take your hand off the csales bro ong

Take your hand off the scales your hand shouldn'tn be on the scales bro

Like if we start the story at “she’s a homophobe/transphobe and so she was an easy target for the Trump campaign” I think we are missing the key question of how was she primed to be an easy target (I’m not interested in the personal responsibility element of it)

I do not care what comes after; I have seen the dragons on the wind of morning.

Fr tho does anyone have ideas for a free blogging website that I can use idk anything about this stuff

I love that 'paradise' in German (paradies) sounds like 'parodies'

Ja girl diese welt ist zu abgefuckt ich stimme

Diese Welt ist so abgefuckt und dieses Patriarchat ist so ein Dreck. Wie bitte soll man da Männer nicht hassen?

thank you for the signal boosts~ donations at this time would be appreciated as certain charges hit and now i am overdrafted. still haven't managed to get my phone fixed paypal.me/viceload

Mashallah to Alanis Morissette fans or whatever but there is literally no definition of the word irony that makes rain on your wedding day ironic

Sorry for that post you didn’t like when I was trying to exorcise thoughts that I didn’t like.

One of my friends works for the military in her country now, and it kind of hurts but like I don't really want to talk to her anymore

This is what happens to every mainstream politician, they are retroactively characterised as left-wing because of how rapidly the bourgeois media shift the social consensus (which was going on while Brandon was president). By the time Carter died he might as well have been a Maoist Third Worldist.

That's it, I'm buying all your stocks

I reckon we can do it. "Aussie Aussie Aussie, oi oi oi!" as a demented fucking racist might scream in a child's face.

understand the definitions! "leftist" - a liberal "liberal" - a conservative who demands a thank-you note "conservative" - Adolf Hitler clone

The inhabitants of Dendera are inebriated with wine, a garland of flowers on their heads; the people of Edfu are filled with joy, anointed with oil of dried myrrh of the highest quality, all the young people are intoxicated, whilst remaining lucid. (OGC)

The UK has declined a new Elbit Systems contract, leading Palestine Action prisoners to end the hunger strike that had three of them on the brink of death. The Tesco worker suspended for refusing to handle Israeli goods has been reinstated and will no longer have to handle them. We can and will win

Apparently I can't access Substack because of the Online Safety Act lmao. I'd already been meaning to find a new platform to use, but I guess this necessitates it. Of course, I didn't post anything there at all in 2025, but that's mainly because almost nobody would read it. My old audience is gone.

Online people don't know this but I'm actually an energetic fun guy irl

If they had just listen john lennon imagine smh

White Americans be all like 'You know who the real victim is? Me.'

Slooowly getting there to keep single Maha & her kids housed another month. They’re exhausted from facing eviction EVERY month. Can we change that? Hit “monthly” on some spare change. Housing is a lifeline in this deadly weather. We can’t forget that.

I remember when bees used to be all over the place and now they aren't.

Bro everyone that was involved in Boris Johnsons government talks and acts like they just stepped out of a clown car, it's actually so funny if you're not British

The online Gothic dictionary going offline at some point last year is easily the worst loss the internet has ever suffered and I will never get over it. Literally the best resource for learning Gothic. Gone. 😮‍💨

This past decade has really brought to the fore all of the gross hypocrisies of white America in a spectacular fashion. Everyone can see that the flip side of industrial militarism and foreign intervention is police militarisation and domestic repression.

It is hard to overstate just how much the Labor Party leadership have pure and utmost disdain for the people it governs. lmao. They rely on the disengagement and busy lives of the populace. If there were no more openly racist party to their right they would become it of their own free will.

Donations are still very low, and the need keeps growing😔 I’m in Gaza. My family is sleeping without proper shelter or safety One tent could really make the difference Please don’t scroll past Your donate can make defrant Even a small donation helps more than you think🙏 chuffed.org/project/1277...

There is a striking similarity between the language being used online against Rohingya in Malaysian online (mainly FB) spaces today & what was used against them in Myanmar in the time prior to the genocide. Hateful, dehumanising, scapegoating & inciting violence against them.

This kind of mass suicidal insanity is only possible in a civilization that has so violently cut itself off from the natural world that it believes life outside cities, factories and mines effectively doesn't exist, a kind of ecological solipsism that forms the basis for our entire society

They eat grass and drink water, they buck and gallop, for this is the innate nature of horses. Even if they had great towers and magnificent halls, they would not be interested in them. However, when Po Lo came on the scene, he said, 'I know how to train horses.'

Finding totemic issues to rhetorically wedge ideological opponents with is an essential element of successful agitprop and western leftists don't know how to do it at all

Do your things on earth as your heart commands! When there comes to you that day of mourning, the Weary-Hearted hears not their mourning, wailing saves no man from the pit! (Song from the Tomb of King Intef) (ALL)
