This activist's guitar was destroyed by ICE today. ICE fired multiple rounds of rubber bullets at us, and the guitar was struck. I am trying to raise $800 to help replace their instrument, which they rely on for gigs. I bet someone out here can straight up cover the cost. DM me.

Oh so you mean they know exactly where everyone is at all time and they still spend all that time shooting civilians

I will not link to it. I just want to reiterate that thousands of books have been banned by the right. And American Dirt sold millions of copies.

Ireland just released a report showing the huge success of the unconditional basic income it provided to artists. Each $1 spent led to society gaining $1.39. Artists' earned incomes went up more than their side job incomes fell. And they were happier and used less welfare www.gov.ie/en/departmen...

This. Nicollet should not be reopened to car traffic. I am still so mad about this and probably always will be. This is making my neighborhood less safe. Nicollet is already part of the city’s highest injury streets & opening it at Lake will make it worse.

Oh, for fuck's. THIS IS NOT DIFFICULT. DO NOT PUT YOUR NAME ON A LIST IF YOU ARE THE KIND OF PERSON WHO THE GOVERNMENT WANTS LISTS OF. PUT YOUR NAME ON ALL THE LISTS IF YOU ARE THE KIND OF PERSON THEY DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO PROSECUTE EN MASSE. FLOOD THE ZONE.

Hi! We're POP HEIST, a worker-owned, fully independent, subscriber-funded pop culture site that prioritizes passion. No SEO or CEOs here. If you're looking for an intro to the site, if you want to know what we're all about, here's a thread highlighting some pieces that really capture the ~vibe~.

Hirbawi restocks are my Eras tour

She’s not saying don’t go to protests, she’s not saying don’t sign up to mailing lists. She’s saying don’t leave a paper trails that says “I was at this specific event, connected to these specific people” and especially don’t do this in a way that will be useful to law enforcement.

by the way, 15 hours ago, someone form Indivisible posted a reel in response to concerns like mine stating outright that you don't need to RSVP to any protest to attend the protest. Which is all I was saying. I appreciate that they recognized concerns and addressed them.

Israel’s bombardment of Gaza has shattered the very fabric of its cultural life. The devastating death toll includes at least 151 cultural figures, while libraries, universities, museums, and irreplaceable historical landmarks lie in ruins. pen.org/press-releas...

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

The Back Braces are available for pre-order! They're available in 6 sizes. In the strawberry, galaxy and bats patterns. They'll look like the knee braces patterns. The 2 support plates on the back are made of curved aluminum (high quality). Which one are you getting?

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

JOINT STATEMENT: Hollywood Labor on Pulling of Jimmy Kimmel Live w/ @sagaftra.org @directorsguild.bsky.social @afm-union.bsky.social

We join our colleagues in @lafilmcritics.bsky.social and @nsfc.bsky.social in condemning the actions taken by Nexstar and Disney-ABC to pull "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" off the air.

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

American brands: We paid an AI slop company to make a chat bot that won’t load French brand: We hired the best living comic artist to make an original short film with a top director and Production IG

The thing about streaming services is that their bread & butter are households that sub and forget - ppl who go months w/o actually using the product but enjoy having the option at their fingertips. They're the first to go in a boycott (it costs nothing to cancel) and they're the hardest to get back

Nice to read the replies and quotes on this

Most of this Palestinian reading list is still on my TBR, but I've updated this book list with a few of the books I've read and added my thoughts in the annotations. bookshop.org/lists/media-...

democrat melissa hortman was literally politically assassinated in her fucking home less than 3 months ago and now everyone wants to comment on how bad it’ll be now like ok

Do not post shit on the internet that will give the feds an excuse to break in your door.

settings > content & media > autoplay video & gifs = off

Yeah this is already getting a lot more attention and vitriol than the political assassinations in Minnesota.

- you clean up that banksy? - sure did, your honour, leaving a perfect, permanent outline, imbuing the work with real fuckin gravitas while making its point better than the artist did himself just like you asked

“Schumer took a brazen procedural step on the Senate floor in order to trigger the vote.” The only thing I have to say about this is: fucking finally. Please be more procedurally brazen, and just more brazen generally. Play to win.

tumblr's favorite poet is on the nba longlist and i love that for all the girlies

enormous development in the Cop City RICO case today: the Judge indicated he would be dismissing *at least* the RICO and Arson counts of the indictment, which would eliminate 56 out of 61 people from the indictment. Official answer tomorrow, and it will certainly be appealed.

this is what we're exploiting our planet's resources and people's labor for. dumb solutions to problems that don't exist to trap people in consumerist cycles.

A monthslong @prismreports.org investigation by @laubast.bsky.social reveals pro-Israel bias at the highest levels in U.S. newsrooms. Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim journalists said they felt dehumanized and were questioned over stories even mentioning Palestine. With Visualizing Palestine:

Yeah, we're cooked. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8S8pVQq/

I am once again asking people who should know better to stop conflating maintaining infrastructure with gentrification. archive.ph/X0P2m

for me (as a reviewer and reader of reviews), the contract between reviewer and reader begins with accurate description of the content of the book. placing the review in its context (which can mean lots of things) and assessing how it makes me feel as a reader etc. threads through and varies.

Watch the clip. Maybe I'm wrong. But you could easily view this as Cuomo delivering a threat from Trump, the functional equivalent of "vote for me or the city gets it."

Over 1,200 actors & filmmakers have signed a pledge stating that they will refuse to work with Israeli companies that are “implicated in genocide and apartheid against Palestinian people.” Olivia Colman, Aimee Lou Wood, Mark Ruffalo & Ayo Edebiri are among those who pledged.

They know they are going to lose so the copium has begun. But this is a sign to everyone who votes for Mamdani that the opponents are going to make things extremely miserable to punish his voters. Get ready to fight on every single front. nypost.com/2025/09/06/b...

“As Amy Goodman put it on a Thursday episode of Democracy Now, Ms. Rachel has been ‘hailed as the heir to Mr. Rogers, the legendary PBS children’s entertainer who also used his position in families’ living rooms to speak out on social issues.’”

I talked to Ahmad just now and his neighborhood is extremely dangerous. Money gives him flexibility to get transportation to somewhere safer.

"We have to elect Cuomo because we need a terrible man to fight Trump, another terrible man. In related news, Trump is backing Cuomo."

"It is past time for both Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to step down and step aside. This fascist moment, this age of Trump, demands outspoken, unrelenting and fearless opposition... we all deserve better." I make the case, in my latest for The Guardian, for new leadership:
