If EVERY Catholic priest in the DC metro area DOESN’T preach on Matthew 5-7*† this weekend, they have not only lost the opportunity to be true spiritual leaders, they are aiding in the damnation of 5 SCOTUS judges. *someone can go Matthew 14 for loaves & fishes. † Sermon on the Mount

"The average voter believes a SNAP recipient gets $20/day, more than 3 times the actual amount of $6."

if you are the public defense investigator who just subpoenaed Sam Altman on stage know that i love you and think you are a wonder upon this earth.

NEW: Trump is asking Supreme Court to act by 9:30pm tonight to block the ruling that requires SNAP payments to be made.

TACO Friday, I guess.

Remember Rev. David Black, the Chicago pastor who was shot in the head with pepper balls? If you haven't heard him speak yet, listen to this. To ICE: "You can repent"

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Wisconsin State Senator confirms SNAP recipients in the state have received their November benefits.

and honestly im sick of not pushing back on this specifically you want to advance human civilization? - universal health care - ubi - green energy - high speed rail and public transportation - free education through college

HUGE NEWS! Because of Democratic pressure, Oregon SNAP recipients are reporting their cards have the FULL November benefits!   Everyone who called out Trump for using hungry children and seniors as a bargaining chip has WON with tremendous results!!

It is legit good to see people saying it. If you have a senator who looks like they might be wobbling, call them!!! And if you have one that you don't think is wobbling, call them to thank them.

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information" They want people to assume this means game info or assets. But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to: 'they were comparing salaries and work contracts"

I will never understand the people who can look at this and shrug.

Could you co-supervise a PhD working with unexplored areas of our collection? We’re seeking proposals from academics at HEI’s on four specially selected research themes: bit.ly/BritishLibra...

We should not be living like we need to monetize every hobby just to keep lights on. Our global financial system is dependent on the exploitation of the poor. Knock all this shit over.

The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond

Never. Good god who wants a worse Google translate to butcher their work? People who have zero respect for their readers i guess

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

(Reuters) - Meta internally projected late last year that it would earn about 10% of its overall annual revenue – or $16 billion – from running advertising for scams and banned goods, internal company documents show. $META @reuters.com www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Iceland. Yes. All of it. I got 40 years after all.

I'm reading in bed. Told my husband if he brings a cup of tea up when he comes to bed, I'll put my icicle hands on the mug and not him. Y'all, you've never seen a man put the kettle on faster 😂

Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

When I say money isn't real, this is what I mean

A List of Things Said to Have Been Ruined by Women 🧵

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.

I see lots of apps and pop "science" socmed trends about this too: face shape/body shape/limb length etc can tell you something about the person. It's not cute or a curious game or quiz (as it's often presented), it's normalizing race science and eugenic thinking. It's all been debunked, stop it

Alt: she is actually doing that; wearing an orange blazer and an annoyed expression. She's sitting at a folding table with a sign on it to the same effect as this skeet.

Attn folks in Delaware, Nevada, New Hampshire, Maine, & Michigan! Your Dem Senators are also getting a LOT of pressure to cut a deal to end the shutdown- by ditching healthcare. Reach out & let them know healthcare must be fixed first! Names & phone numbers below.

Cheney croaked, Zohran won, and sandwich guy is free. All time great week imo.

🚨🚨🚨 The jury has reached a verdict. Sean Dunn, aka the DC Sandwich Guy, has been found NOT GUILTY of assault.

Judge Lin’s intro is direct and to the point: the federal govt has used a playbook to force UCLA to capitulate to “the administration’s preferred views.” She states that the defense hasn’t submitted a single thing to dispute this.

These meds took me from severe ME/cfs from covid to mild, giving me my life back. I do not give AF about peeps hot takes on weight, likely everything you think you know about weight loss is wrong anyway.

Having stressed financially feels and am baking cookie bars about it, like a proper adult

Same, allegedly

Freshman Arizona dem:

Really exciting book news out of Norway. And while the article focusses on the sealskin binding, I'm even more excited by the fact that these neumes are not square, which suggests a date well before 1200.

I mean, this is a given. Dutch police is notoriously racist. Punishments only rarely lead to actual removal from service, total disbarment. The fact that there are over 30 reports per six months is staggering. That's just the ones they report, or that see review and action. nos.nl/artikel/2471...

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

For those who don’t know, Lina Khan is John Wick/Baba Yaga to Wall Street and billionaires

Don't cross a picket line.

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have just authorized a massive strike. Union Starbucks baristas voted to authorize the strike by 92%. Now baristas in over 25 cities could launch an unfair labor practice strike on Thursday, November 13th.

good morning specifically to the FBI agent who introduced Mamdani’s dad to Marx

Exactly this. Especially this in the wake of Mamdani. Any politician that pivots or pivoted to a campaign of fascism should get the ending to their political career they deserve

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.

I can't say it often enough: Local races matter.

I sure missed this little fae creature.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

“He doesn’t have a mandate” are you fucking kidding? Dick Cheney died the day Zohran is elected he has the mandate of HEAVEN
