The rainier cherry harvest has begun in WA. This cherry is very delicate. Workers must be careful not to bruise it. They earn $10 per 25 lb bucket. In this very short one month season a very fast picker can make 40 buckets in a 8 hr day. But most workers pick much less. #WeFeedYou

These “alt” accounts are grifting off the very real anger and pain people are feeling, all while often having zero association with the agency they’re claiming to represent (AltNPS, for instance, was at one point not even based in the US, idk if that’s changed)

ok slow down there Mr Rhodesia

I especially love this diagram.

First Wilson’s Snipe we’ve ever caught at the banding station. Pretty cool, also a total chiller, just kind of hung out until it was time to release

Detainees at Delaney Hall report being fed rotten, infested food; denied medical care; and forced to work for pennies, if they’re paid at all. defector.com/two-nights-o...

Okay. Ai can go bankrupt then. This is not our problem, this sounds like a rich tech billionaire problem.

Can’t imagine why folks would be discontent with a system that actively rewards awful people for being evil fucks

also not lost on me that as democratic socialists are winning some elections, a new red scare targeting anarchists, antifascists, and their allies is digging in hard, and today handed down 30, 50, and 100 year prison sentences to activists and organizers

lol loser shit.

Absolutely masterful set up leading to the final two paragraphs. Dude knows how to build to a crescendo

In a statement on the day of the shooting, the Mississippi Department of Public Safety said that the officers responding to the shoplifting call saw “two subjects and a juvenile child fleeing from the store into a vehicle." That "juvenile" was 1-year-old Kohen Wiley.

people best known for podcasts and forum posts being real liberal (ha ha) with their disdain for poor people in this thread

But sure man, trans people who are just trying to exist and survive are “the problem”. Not these fucking evil tech billionaire pedophile Nazis who are actively trying to bleed us dry and kill us all.

Oh no, no no no. Bush and Cheney used 9/11 to spearhead making Islamophobia the centerpiece of the Republican Party and tested the waters on authoritarianism. There is no MAGA power surge without “if you’re not with us you’re against us” and the Iraq war.

Rebecca: "Chaps, Alexi left us" Zlatan: "Who? Rebecca: "Alexi will be back, Alexi will be back with us very soon" Thierry: "Your plan worked, Rebecca" Rebecca: "Don't you bring me into this, no chance" Zlatan: "America, you're welcome" lmaooooooooooooooooo

Mona Khalil, Lebanon’s most well-known sea turtle conservationist, died of her wounds today after being injured by an Israeli strike I feel sick

All of these people should be sent to rot in jail. Not to do the meme but we really cannot let them keep getting away with this, it is corrosive and antisocial and needs to be punished severely.

The fantasy of human colonization of Mars isn't just stupid, unrealistic, or a waste of resources — it's pernicious, because it actively stokes insouciance with respect to safeguarding the only planet that at least 99.99999999% of us are ever going to live on.

I have this thing where I can look at a photo of somebody and instantly know their fate as a sopranos side character

Hegseth proudly ended the flu vaccine requirement for the military. Following this idiocy, only 40% of new trainees got vaccinated. There’s now a flu outbreak at an AF facility. A new recruit has died, though it is not clear if it was from flu. Now, the flu vaccine is again required there.

The only reason that groceries are so expensive is because the companies involved from producers to chains are crooked. Executives make millions, billions while labor is squeezed for every last drop of blood.

Uh, yeah, this part where she blames everything on Hamas and holds Israel accountable for nothing fucking sucks, actually.

Electoralism in general has its flaws, but even within that context “lesser of two evils” voting is a complete disaster. Without an ideological counterbalance, the two evils start to look very much alike (look at UK/Canada, for instance)

The people who are saying you can’t do anything about Musk would’ve said the same shit about Hitler because they’re absolute cowards and losers

On this day in 1954, John Foster Dulles and the United Fruit Company organise the landing of the CIA’s Exile Army to Guatemala to begin the coup against President Jacobo Árbenz.

It took over 14 months, but Rodney Taylor has finally been released from ICE custody He’s advocating for disabled immigrants and everyone having their health jeopardized in the camps What was done to Rodney should have caused worldwide uproar … yet almost no one told his story. We must do better

Out of this chaos will come order, the order of revolution.

NEW: Regulators have linked Mark McAfee’s raw dairy farm to more than a dozen recalls and outbreaks that left hundreds of people ill. “I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital,” McAfee said. “But here’s the thing: I’m a pioneer.”

there isn’t a problem in education some ed tech guy hasn’t figured out how to monetize with a shitty app

they keep letting people go on record and say "don't worry everyone, we only replaced our concept artists with ai" as if the concept artists aren't the entire skeleton of the thing. you took the bones out, man. look at it flippin and floppin around. fuck off

I'm just a middle aged woman, standing in front of a cast of a T Rex skull, asking you to preorder my next picture book. 🔬🧪🚀 mrsdalloways.com/book/9781452...

GEO Group, a private prison company, signed a contract to give ICE use of Delaney Hall and “support services” like security, maintenance, food services, etc. in exchange for over $60 mil/yr But it is the detainees—not GEO Group—who actually do that work, for free ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

as companies seek to build out the infrastructure for AI across the country, human beings are paying the cost

Here's the above grebeling half-yawning on video. I lucked out they did it twice, i believe the only yawn I captured yesterday 🪶
