Oh wow that is genuinely upsetting

Don’t ever hesitate to give unhoused people cash, in studies done where unhoused people are given cash they don’t squander it, but instead they use it for things they actually need. It turns out just giving people money can solve their problems. psych.ubc.ca/news/cash-tr...

Listening to David Graber’s debt as I’m doing Sunday chores…. Man we really need to abolish rich people.

we need to nationalize all airlines. I do not care what it will cost. I’m sick of getting fucked around by every single airline. Also Pilots need the ability to strike same as Air Traffic controllers. when you have such a high stress job which requires a zero margin of error you need to be paid well

I wish liberals had listened when we pointed and screamed that this would happen in 2015. As the eldritch horror of fascism opened its eyes and started to move its shapeless all encompassing mass toward shoveling more humans into the furnace for of capital to burn brighter for a mere moment profit.

The American version of the poem will go something to the extent of; first they came for the migrants, but I was not a migrant, then they came for the trans folk and activists, but I was not trans nor and activist,then they came for the communist, but I was not a communist…

Wake up.

For the first time ever, from April 2025 to April 2026, solar energy outproduced ‘natural gas’ in Asia. First coal, now ‘natural gas’… the fossil fuel dominos are falling… and they said it cant be done…

Friendly reminder America was founded on values and concepts stolen from the Wendat and Huron peoples! Happy 250 years of tyranny!

On this day in 1930 the founding convention of the Unemployed Councils of the USA took place in Chicago. Organized with the backing of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) and the Trade Union Unity League, the gathering drew 1,320 delegates to address the Great Depression.

Eating a whole bell pepper like an apple, I’m on my villain arc.

Went for a run today, weather was best described as Evil.

Existing in your Mid 20s rn is crazy, hottest summer on record, there are no jobs, old people act like they hate us, younger old people think we are mostly brain dead gooners, the genocides keep being live-streamed and no ones doing anything about it. No wonder we’re all turning into communists.

Here's my full interview with CNBC, covering my bear case against generative AI, OpenAI's questionable finances, AI's lack of ROI, and how all of this is a symptom of the tech industry running out of hypergrowth ideas. It's great to see the mainstream media discussing this. youtu.be/TtmPccUTDP8?...

Conscience is often tested when obedience is demanded. If these Israeli refuseniks are choosing prison over participating in a war they believe kills civilians, that's a powerful act of moral courage. Peace begins when humanity is valued above militarism. #Gaza

Pounding the sign

Just remembering how L Ron Hubbard had a fucking Navy he used to search for lost buried treasure from his past life. We need more funny flim flam cult leaders and less horrifying sex criminal cult leaders.

Under international law, occupied peoples have a legally recognized right to resist occupation. #Palestine 🇵🇸

⚡️“NO FUNDS FOR ISRAEL”: A bill to cut off U.S. taxpayer-funded military aid to Israel is likely to come to a vote on the House floor this week.

#OtD 29 Jun 1892 union workers at the Homestead Carnegie steel plant in Pennsylvania were locked out to break the union and cut pay. Non-union workers went on strike, but after armed battles, state militia eventually broke the strike in November stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1010...

My Aunt showed up to the pride riot on Saturday 😂. 💙💜❤️💛💚

How is the economy even functioning rn? Like millennials still largely rent or live with their grandparents and zoomers live with their parents or grandparents??? We are also the most educated generations percapita in history…

The United States truly feels like it’s in terminal collapse. My prediction is that once Ai,and Private credit collapses we will begin to see large scale destabilization in 2-3 years. With the high number of arms in the US it will be fascinating to see how this plays out.

I live in a conservative hellscape and the boomers here complain to me incessantly about how bad the weather has been recently. I explain to them it’s due to global warming, they then shake their heads and disagree. Ok Bob and Deloris I guess you know better than all of work of climate science.

The Stonewall riots began 57 years ago today. Stonewall wasn’t just an uprising for LGBTQ rights — it was part of a broader movement that fought racism, war, and poverty. To go beyond today’s tepid gay activism, we need to remember its anti-capitalism.

Listening to @socialistdogmom.bsky.social ‘s fantastic show Weird Little guys with my parrot. Which he seems to enjoy, as when he doesn’t like some he does an angry dance. Which he does that dance whenever I listen to @iwriteok.bsky.social’s Behind the bastards. Score 1-0 for Molly over Robert.

#OtD 25 Jun 1876 the Battle of the Little Bighorn began when Lakota, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes routed General Custer's army, killing Custer in the process. A full account of the battle is in Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee: stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9753...

People contain multitudes, but certain actions are unforgivable and result in people permanently remembered as bastards. His crimes in the US’s genocidal policies must never be forgotten or forgiven and we must agitate for full reparations and recognition of indigenous sovereignty.

Custer frustrates me, he was a genocidal maniac whom I’m glad he reaped what he sowed and died painfully. He also was a prolific cavalry officer who played a significant role in many critical civil war battles helping to end Chattel Slavery.

I wrote about the Prairieland defendants and the urgency of opposing the extreme sentences handed down on Tuesday. And they likely will not be the last.

I am often saying this

TRY THIS ONE SIMPLE TRICK CAPITALISTS HATE:

To the surprise of no one:

@iwriteok.bsky.social holy shit, I cried whilst eating breakfast this morning listening to today’s episode of ICHH… What a bittersweet story of human resistance, but knowing that this will only get worse makes me deeply ashamed of us as humans.

America is an authoritarian police state. Your constitution means nothing. The Supreme Court routinely wipes its ass with it.

A quote from my new book.

David Graeber opposed Keir Starmer back in 2020, warning he'll lead to the rise of the Far-Right and the rise of hate/racism. And look where we are now. Labour having abandoned its principles to become just another Neo-liberal party has been a total disaster.

What happened in Belfast and now in Edinburgh is the result of the hateful rhetoric used by Nigel Farage, Suella Braverman, Lee Anderson, Priti Patel, Douglas Murray, Katie Hopkins, and countless others. They stoke the fires; the blood is on their hands. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

June is National Indigenous History Month and today marks National Indigenous Peoples Day - a powerful time to honour the cultures, resilience, and rights of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples across these lands Let’s amplify Indigenous voices, stories and futures- together

part of the reason i'm more certain that 2026 is going to lead to some level of constitutional hardball or crisis is that when you notice how the ecosystem of the right works, there's basically no perception of the fact that Dems are likely to going to retake one (or two) chambers of the legislature

Never forget the crimes committed by Europe for the process of Industrialization. We as modern people may not be responsible for the action of our ancestors, but we are responsible for understanding them and properly rectifying them.
