A court had to force Trump to keep Americans from going hungry — and he's still only covering half of this month’s SNAP needs. He won’t meet to reopen the government or do the bare minimum to feed people. And he couldn’t care less that health care costs are about to skyrocket. Shameful.

And now you threw it in the gutter. bsky.app/profile/esqu...

And then the entire politics staff was fired. RIP Teen Vogue.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Folks will still need help for a while. "However, millions of recipients will still face delays in getting their benefits, which were scheduled to start being distributed on November 1. It will take time for the Department of Agriculture and states to get the money flowing again. "

Dear Republicans, "We'll starve some of you until you let us take away your healthcare" isn't as good a look as you think it is.

"Once you imagine a body that might bring you happiness instead of loathing... I found myself having more days in which I wished for nothing more than to be present in my body. I realized that quitting would be, in essence, to value my own life and wish myself into the future."

Can we finally rid ourselves of the shame attached to poverty through the capitalist propaganda that poor people deserve to be impoverished? We have the data to know it’s not true. Can we overcome that through giving to others when we can without moral judgment about it?

making new worlds is not a marathon, but more like a relay. it's almost always multigenerational, and sometimes it feels and is immediate, but there's always threads that go back through time...

This is clear political prosecution and government overreach meant to scare protestors by going after resistance leaders and political candidates. Kat Abughazaleh must not be imprisoned for fighting against the President’s fascism.

I've always loved hearing people's stories. "Untangling Ourselves" is my new podcast with stories about how people change themselves, and change their culture.

"When doubt creeps in that the harm can never be undone and the hurt never healed, we can look to the ways the world already runs on incongruous, interrupting, grace that rattles our imaginaries. "

Israel destroyed 92% of homes and 88% of businesses in Gaza. $55+ billion in damage. 78% of all structures demolished. Entire neighborhoods wiped off the map.

Israel weaponized starvation. 459 people—including 154 children—starved to death. Israeli forces killed 2,600+ people who were just trying to collect food. Israel created the first official famine in Middle East history.

Israel attacked 125 health facilities. Hit 34 hospitals. Killed 1,722 healthcare workers. Attacking hospitals is a war crime under international law.

Israel killed 67,000+ Palestinians. That's 1 out of every 33 people. 3% of the entire population gone. 20,000+ were children. Israel killed one child every single hour for 24 months straight.

The Gaza Health Ministry reports these deaths. The true number—including thousands still buried under rubble and missing—is estimated in the hundreds of thousands.

Israel killed nearly 300 journalists—more than WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan wars COMBINED.

Actually, I think the far-right is accurately identifying an existential issue. So many of the most vehement far-right were either heavily bullied or did the bullying. Teaching empathy to the next generation is fundamentally at odds with conservative political philosophy. That's why they hate it.

"Back then I still believed that only solutions were allowed to bring comfort. "

overt nazi language in this DHS job listing (which i’m told is for a low-level but important job in adjudicating immigration applications and requires knowledge of the law)

4/5 I think of people like me who can't stand up for long, I think of people who needed medication couldn't get back to it. They all got rounded up, tied up, including people who weren't getting arrested, citizens, because ICE is operating with impunity, because they can.

@emanabdelhadi.bsky.social tells these cops about themselves.

30 boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla remain steadfast, just 46 nautical miles from Gaza, despite relentless hostility from the Israeli navy. The Israeli navy has intercepted 13 boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla so far.

Live from Global Sumud Flotilla. Undeterred, the smaller boats keep moving. Such courage. Such love.

In his first show after being reinstated following his suspension, Jimmy Kimmel greeted the audience with the same opener used by Jack Paar in 1960 when he returned to his show after being censored by his network.

Mario Guevara has been detained by ICE for more than 100 days in retaliation for his reporting — even though a judge ordered his release on bond. An immigration court just ruled Mario could be deported at any moment. ICE must free him now.
