Outdoorsy types & lovers of merino socks: The Union of REI workers is asking us to pledge to join a worker lead boycott during the company’s big annual spring sale. Sign the pledge @reiunion.bsky.social 💪🏻 #UnionStrong

This is genuinely shocking behavior by the Times.

if it happens, there's going to be an period in which US standoff firepower flattens everything not just on Kharg Island but also everything adjacent to it on the Iranian coastline, followed by a lot of crowing and "this is the day Trump became President"-ing. People here need to not freak out

Remember: The richest 1% evade roughly $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

damnatio memoriae, you're hearing it more and more, folks, we're going to erase his name from the history books very strongly, big strong men, tears in their eyes, they're going to say, "trump, that's an unusual name, i've never heard that one"

This is exactly the way in which twitter is rotting brains, rapidly

My genuine advice for anyone reading this thread and going “oh my god—that’s me” is to work on building the friendship skills you’re likely lacking like reciprocity and emotional vulnerability. It’s never too late to undo harmful socialization. Therapy is a great place to do that.

Biden won because he said there are “at least three” genders. Harris lost because she didn’t up the ante to four

i need all nationwide dems and dem candidates to fucking knock all of this shit off immediately

this isn't even about "civility", like, if you want to talk trash, talk trash, i do it every day all day on this godforsaken hellsite, and i manage to do it while still adhering to my personal values. defaulting to this kind of lazy gutter shit tells me something about yours.

As one Gay, it would be real swell if we didn’t have major candidates for the party stopping just short of calling GOP folks closeted fags, it would be real cool if we didn’t go back to that time when those things were tossed around lightly for chump change imaginary internet points

one thing a whole lot of us struggle with at times is feeling isolated and depressed and like not enough people care about what’s going on and I really cannot emphasize enough that going to a no kings protest helps this feeling a lot there are so! many! people! who hate all of this shit

I will crawl over broken glass to help elect literally anyone who runs on enforcing FARA

This is a legitimately great idea. Turn every ICE concentration camp into a museum of their crimes and the people who fought against them.

It's the same with the arts! They try to frame it as "AI can do what you do with some prompts" but the truth is they're so fucking angry they can't write or draw. They have no talent. No ability. That's the whole AI proposition! People not smart enough or talented to do great things using shortcuts

Don't buy any Ray-Ban products, even the non-creepy ones. They need to suffer some consequences, too, for profiting off of casualized surveillance.

There's also the fact that different countries have different labeling requirements. I skeeted about this tiktok controversy around "dyed" salmon and how only in the US would you find this. The salmon was from Norway which doesn't require farmed salmon to label that it was dyed. The US does.

A President of the United States saying this should be absolutely unthinkable. A Chief Justice of the United States failing to condemn this promptly and directly should be unthinkable, too.

Wikipedia remains the best place to begin your research if you're looking for actual fact or information.

This is a zombie GWOT trope, plucked from 2002-2004. The greatest fear of CIA CTC-WMD was that Al Qaeda would get their hands on a radiological weapon and detonate it in a U.S. city.

This is extremely cool and something that it feels like people ask for a lot, so challenge to YOU: If @theflytrapmedia.com were to do this, who would you want to see in our bundle?

it's incredible that as long as you do the right amount of bigotry you can just rob the country blind and enough people will not care, even though those same people will be filled with incandescent rage if someone uses food stamps to buy a 12 pack of diet coke

“Many discussions still approach AI primarily as a digital technology, but in many of these countries, AI is becoming visible through the infrastructures that sustain it: data centers, mineral extraction, energy demand, water-intensive cooling systems, and digital labor chains…”

this is like, literally the exact kind of thing that kicked off the revolutionary war. i'm trying to find a way to be goofy and say i'm exaggerating but taxing shipments in order to pay for expensive foreign wars was literally the flashpoint lol

"'I just want to go home,' said one GOP senator granted anonymity to vent." What a big fucking baby. And what reporters' manual says "venting" is a reason to grant anonymity??? www.politico.com/live-updates...

Many people are aware of Republican efforts to restrict reproductive healthcare, but it's crucially important to realize that these proposals are part of a much larger right-wing project of removing women from American public life. @susanrinkunas.com and I put the pieces together here:

Yes! And YET it's also amazing to see what those students got done despite the backlash and intransigence. They went from an America where they were the only people daring to talk about this issue to one where bipartisan support for Israel is cracking, public opinion shifting, AIPAC is shunned, etc.

ICE has deported people to Mauritania — where racialized chattel slavery still exists — at least seven times since last May.

I have the stomach to say one more thing: as meaningful as what students saw in response to their protests (repression) is what they didn't (US shifting away from support for genocide). describing this as *their* failure as opposed to the supposed adults in the room is a joke and not the funny kind

"Earthsea was better" sure, but if Ursula Le Guin was alive and funding Nazis then you would need to boycott her too, whether they're good books is beside the point

Keeping people housed is so important. This is not a terribly difficult goal to reach, and time is running short. Please help if you can.

just one moment of celebration for getting a major donor to move $3 million dollars this week to rent funds now if only there were more than one generous super-wealthy person and the news hadn’t moved on from this entirely predictable crisis

As a born and bred Nevadan, co-sign. The dignity wraiths I saw at the grocery store and in casinos (where the “nice” restaurants were) made both gambling and cigarettes supremely uncool to me

I guess we're all doing Harry Potter takes today so mine is that "is this media spiritually corrupting?" is a vague psychological question that you can discourse about for hours and there is no right answer but "where is my money going when I buy this?" is a lot more straightforward

This is genuinely a bombshell. All courthouse arrests should cease immediately. There should be a Congressional investigation & civil rights actions for every illegal abduction of immigrants trying to follow the rules and appear in court. (2/2)

Yeah, Republicans voted to take a bunch of money out of the healthcare industry just last year, which many people predicted would lead to rural hospital closures. It’s odd for a candidate running in a Democratic primary to avoid saying that with…this.

AG Jay Jones Joins Coalition of 24 States, DC, etc. in Challenging Trump EPA’s Unlawful Rollback of 2009 Greenhouse Gas Endangerment Finding; “While the Trump administration continues to try to convince us that up is down and down is up..." bluevirginia.us/2026/03/ag-j...

Pete Hegseth called them “narco terrorists” and the official statement from the Trump administration called it a training camp for drug traffickers. It was a dairy farm. They murdered Ecuadorian farmers. With our money. The War on Drugs has always been a fascist plot to kill Black and Brown people

One thing I didn't put in here but is also at play: whatever markets predict, the opposite thing becomes more likely. If markets think Trump will cave and accept humiliation, oil trends lower, making him less likely to do so. If they think he'll fight, it goes up, making him more likely to cave.

Pete Hegseth's pastor said he wants James Talarico to die... now a few months ago ... when words had meaning... that would have sounded like a terroristic threat ... but you know ... white guys... doing white guy stuff.

the girl guides in the UK just kicked out all their trans members specifically bc they were threatened with a lawsuit from a rowling-funded group

It’s limited to the Bay Area but if this is you, worth checking it out!

i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!

Cis people may feel frustrated trans people go SO berserk anti- a single writer. If this confuses you try to understand how much it hurts to live an existence so precarious, a single popular author in your country saying "these people shouldn't exist!" can actually mean legal rights being taken away

This! We keep saying he’s doing this to distract us from the Epstein files- we can’t even grasp there’s something else going on in those damn files they don’t want us to see! He is part of the oligarchy working to further oligarchal profit and control over resources (we are a resource!)

WFH is comfortably one of the best, lowest-cost and most immediately effective ways to ease fossil fuel impacts. So it makes sense business guys hate it
