Just to be absolutely clear, this bill will kill people both passively and directly.

revolutionary optimism will keep me going these next 4 years. it can keep you going too. fascism depends on a lie that it is inevitable & cannot be stopped. in reality it is weak, unstable, & paranoid. it eats itself. find solidarity & trans joy even in times of despair.

My new campaign is the “make ICE agents so demoralized they quit” campaign.

Yesterday I used this "AI -Free Statement" in a conference talk for the first time. Still trying to figure out the exact language. Feel free to borrow, modify, etc.

I want to hear more things like this. Who are the lawyers who can offer tangible ways that people can fight back?

IDF soldiers have now themselves admitted they have been ordered to murder aid-seekers in Gaza. Truly an atrocity built on atrocity. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

The Supreme Court is definitely not my lane. I look forward to hearing what radical lawyers and law scholars offer as strategies for gumming up the works, causing legal chaos, and generally how to fuck this shit up. In the meantime, the rest of us need to be focused on our lanes and fucking shit up.

I am begging everyone to please make a pledge to refuse to be demagogued again re "crime" and "law and order." Let this be the last time you fall for the bullshit.

For people who don't know L.A. geography, Boyle Heights is in East L.A. which is a traditionally Chicanx and Mexican community and home to people from around Central America too.

Far from the first. I would love to see the day that the left stops going for the football that Peppermint Bernie pulls away every time.

Actually this is brilliant.

I agree with those who say that by attacking sanctuary cities, the administration was trying to provoke a response they could exploit. But here's the thing: there is no perfect move for a community under siege. Cooperation and the passive absorption of violence are also highly exploitable moves.

This is the protest that Trump has sent the flippin Marines to break up. Outrageous! Thanks to @jesscraven101.bsky.social for the video.

guys will be like "these people are ruining america" and it'll be a picture of the coolest guys ever

"I hereby call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard ... to temporarily protect ICE & other [USG] personnel who are performing Federal functions ... at locations where protests ... are occurring or are likely to occur based on current threat assessments and planned operations"

We are learning in real time which colleges & universities are for real & which are not. It's not something we necessarily wanted to learn, but DAMN! Let's make the most of it! Tufts shames the Ivies, for damn sure. And stays true to it's Universalist roots.

Really remarkable how Wall Street keeps defaulting back to 'he can't really be serious, it can't just be Tariff Man Wants Tariffs' -- www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

When people say 'politics is too divisive now,' what they really mean is 'I was more comfortable when certain groups suffered quietly.'

One of the things that is totally lost on Carville is that conservatives will never believe that you aren’t secretly connected with <insert marginalized group>. It’s just that when you trash them, you send the message that you won’t fight for what you believe in and you’re a fake piece of shit.

❤️ WISCONSIN: “I’d like to apologize. My eyes were opened. I’ve learned a very lot about this group of people.” Larry came to testify against the anti-trans youth health care bill, but had an epiphany and changed his mind. Context: www.pride.com/politics/ant...

When pressed about what exact conduct led to Columbia anti-war protester Mahmoud Khalil being arrested and stripped of his U.S. permanent resident status for “supporting terrorism,” the Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security answered: “basically pro-Palestinian activity.” www.npr.org/2025/03/13/n...

what is this shit? the tariffs don't pay for anything! why are we pretending that tariffs generate revenue?! jfc. wtf is wrong with you?

Sorry, we broke money. It doesn’t work anymore. The green rectangles, the metal circles, they’re all busted. Doesn’t do anything at the store. We’re gonna try to get bartering started up again after we figure out how many tomatoes a house is worth

This, precisely, is what I think Dem voters want from their representatives: direct confrontation with people who are used to bullying others both as a matter of substance and style. You don't have to back down to these fucking clowns.

turns out when you legitimate a taste for bigotry people gravitate to the parties that serve it as an entree rather than as a garnish

Gavin Newsom doesn’t understand that the mean girls will never let him sit at their table, no matter how many kids he bullies in front of them.

“It is not enough to go along, to try to do the gentlemanly thing. Far better to accept the disputes of the world, the harassments, the arguments, the tensions, the slanders, the violence. Raise the question. Confront the blameless ones. We are all to blame. We all must be confronted.” 💯

Defend the liberty of a stranger as you would defend your own, or that of a loved one, because that is what's actually on the table—whether we are a society that will sit still as our neighbors are snatched in the night, and disappeared into darkness, or a society that will fight for each other.

The way Zionists believe that they can incite ICE against pro-Palestinian people and somehow they will be safe as Jewish people under this administration is WILD.

🚨 EMERGENCY PRESS CONFERENCE Columbia/Barnard faculty, Jewish community leaders, immigrant advocates, and rabbis are demanding the immediate release of Mahmoud Khalil from ICE custody. We will not be silent or cower in the face of American Fascism. #FreeMahmoud

must rock being a cybertruck guy. every time you pull up it’s like beep beep make way for the Ambassador of Divorce

see, here's your problem. you let a cat get in there.

Fuck you. 😊

I’ve been saying it since the election: California won’t be a safe place. Newsom was always going to roll over. He’s not a guy who is in it for any personal values he has about community. Maybe he was at some point but not anymore.

I feel like we are stuck inside of a snow globe and some asshole keeps shaking it.

At max, you can expect to infect 5-7 people with COVID. That’s considered pretty transmissible, which is why we (tried to) lock down about it. An infected person will give measles to 16-18 other people. It’s extremely virulent It’s long past time for you to wear a mask again.

Not my home but I know my way around

I hope the protesters are okay.

18-year-old Jude on laws banning gender-affirming care: "On the more extreme end, for a lot of kids it's the possibility of severe mental-health struggles and suicidal ideation - but I also think on a smaller scale, kids, because they cannot be themselves, would rather choose to not be anyone."

I was at a party once with an older guy who told me about his time in the 70s going undercover in the KKK and how he and his friends were instrumental in exposing the Klan in North Georgia. They weren't cops, just a group of bad-ass people willing to risk everything to fuck up racist assholes.

movies you've watched more than 6 times, gifs only

then get arrested

I wish more people were talking about egg prices as less of a “muh egg prices!” thing and more about the fact that there is an organized egg cartel that is illegally price gouging and almost certainly illegally price fixing and reaping massive, gigantic profits.
