THANK YOU

EVERYONE STOP EVERYTHING Mychal the Librarian is hosting the Reading Rainbow revival!!! reactormag.com/reading-rain...

If Portland were actually war-torn (which it obviously isn’t) even Republicans in Congress should be clamoring to hold briefings and debates on the matter. Since it’s not, this is a new level of insanity from the executive in his aggression deployed vs the American people. Dems, WHERE ARE YOU?

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Please and thank you!

Since this whole debate is still happening, and since we are still not listening I will summarize what I understand the argument to be in the Lingua Franca of white nerds: Lord of the Rings analogies.

Curtis Evans, of Evanston, carries a U.S. flag through gas deployed by federal officers as they clear protesters from the entrance of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Broadview on Sept. 19, 2025. Evans said he was a Marine during Ronald Reagan’s term.

Just cancelled Paramount+ and Disney+/Hulu. Shame on all of their executives for falling in line with this anti-free-speech behavior.

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group. There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi. He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

it doesn’t matter how loudly Dems condemn this, or even what the shooter’s actual motive is, the machine is already in motion and will invent its own fuel if it has to

I know no democrat is perfect but I would like any of them, ever, to explain why they voted for ANY Trump nominee.

This Saturday (9/6) at 7 PM in the shop, come hear Tochi Eze and ‪@bruceholsinger.bsky.social‬ discuss Tochi's debut novel, This Kind of Trouble. We recommend arriving early to get a good seat! #authorevent #charlottesville #indiebookstore

Please add your voice!

Hey. Male-volent.

We don’t need to put children and families and communities through this. Nobody should have to go through this.

Please and thank you!

Just saw the in theater Sing-A-Long K-Pop Demon Hunters with my kid and a whole legion of other dancing, singing kids. It was kind of the greatest.

Boost and for everyone in DC. Know your rights. (Gift link)

Omg just discovered #sandwichsky 😍

Our govt is building concentration camps in the US and supporting genocide in Gaza, all in our name with our taxpayer $$. It’s unconscionable.

Motherfucking wind farms…

"How Helsinki and Oslo cut pedestrian deaths to zero They cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars and generally made life harder for motorists [In 2019] Helsinki recorded no deaths for the first time since records began in 1960" From @journo-jess.bsky.social in 2020

When you strip away humanity

WCK can use your donations. They are on the ground in Gaza, doing what they can in the face of a staggering and ongoing crime against humanity.

Given ICE brutality, it's unusual to get video evidence of how they operate. But here's chilling documentation that shows the indiscriminate and violent approach that ICE takes to arrests - here, including a US citizen: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Absolutely this.

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached. They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others. Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further. #UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.

“the party being led by jeffrey epsteins best friend wants to repeatedly examine your childs genitals” is a true statement

The US government and the El Salvadoran government are complicit in crimes against these immigrants, none of whom received due process, all of whom were kidnapped. We have much to answer for to all of them. The gov't can claim they were terrorists all they want - without proof, it's lies.

Having played through this several times, I think TLOU2 provides an important opportunity for us to embrace both darkness and light through forced narrative perspectives. And in a world with so much rage, it forces us to confront where that rage truly leads.

I'm really asking everyone to please stop using Alligator Alcatraz. This is not a descriptor that makes sense. These are concentration camps.

💯

These people have lost their minds.

There are no medical reasons for gestational limits on abortion care, only political. I work with providers who can tell you every patient & every situation is different. Coloradans understand the principle that doctors and patients know best & that politicians need to stay out of these decisions.

They have been demolishing our society to pocket wealth since Trump took office, and this is a big step forward for them. The rest of us will suffer so a billionaire can say they’re even richer.

And an important reminder for Americans that this is Hungary, too. Just as many of us do not support Trump, many there do not support Orban. Hungary is a beautiful and complex country that has been through a lot and deserves better than Orban.

Absolutely incredible turnout for Budapest Pride! So proud of all the organizers, including some old friends, who estimate hundreds of thousands— major embarrassment to Orban

Damn straight

This letter is so deeply messed up. And so is our country that an elected official wrote this racist and unAmerican hate, felt comfortable sending it to the AG, and then published it for public consumption.

Watching ICE chase, tackle, and (usually) whisk into a van anyone who looks a certain way is the most literal and visceral reminder possible that policing in the United States has its roots in runaway slave patrols.

@msnbc.com There are over a hundred others who have been sent to the foreign concentration camp without due process and STILL HAVE NOT BEEN RETURNED. You are derelict in your journalistic duty by not mentioning and naming *ALL OF THEM* OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER! Just tokenists you are.

I saw this useful resource: www.nilc.org/resources/ho...

This cannot keep happening. Not to anyone.

just a reminder that only water goes in your eyes, don’t wear contacts to a protest if you can help it, hot showers will hurt like hell if you have mace or gas residue on your skin. turn off face ID on your phone. pick a buddy & never leave their side. if detained, ask for a lawyer & then shut up.

…asking for a friend…

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

immigrants belong in our community. ICE doesn't.
