This👇🏽 deserves to be posted 100 times but I’d be labeled spam.

This may be the most powerful 85 seconds I've ever seen on television.

NEW: Is this the broligarchy’s first world war? AI, like war & rape, is a hyper-masculine fantasy of God-like power, a myth at the dark heart of what we’re seeing play out in the Gulf. This war hasn’t replaced the Epstein scandal. It is the Epstein scandal. open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Written in 1942 by Captain Wilm Hosenfeld but chillingly true for today.

Every American needs to watch this:

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

You don't have to make faraway suffering and strangers' crimes the center of your life, but part of living a full life is staying aware enough about current events to know where you fit into it, where your daily life and actions can help push things just a little closer to your ideal world.

Please share. 💔

Excellent skit! Here’s a flyer w/ your rights if ICE comes to your door, fr the ACLU website, which has flyers in many languages. www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

Let us all stand with Chairman Powell.

Make it viral.

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The most important point about the Epstein scandal, is that Epstein's operation was hardly secret and hidden. Even before the first police investigation, which started in 2004, it should have been obvious to all the rich and powerful people that associated with Epstein what was going on. 1/🧵

Just nice to see an American progressive leader who is unafraid and victorious. Really no more to it than that. What a beautiful fucking sight.

Well, since this has gone more viral than expected: In the absence of my cunning plans, here's a resource to find food banks locally. Volunteer and contribute if you can, and don't be ashamed to get help if you need it. We're all in it together. www.feedingamerica.org/find-your-lo...

If you're dealing with food insecurity with food stamps being cut off in November, you can find local food pantries at foodfinder.us FindHelp also has food bank and pantry listings, as well as other mutual aid orgs and resources findhelp.org

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better." Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better. Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand. We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

It ain't going away, no it ain't going away....

The algo obviously HATES us talking about this. So would you do us a favour and share? UK Media Shifts Tone on Gaza - #BrokenNews youtu.be/WmFD42E5_W4

Please spread this fat and wide.

A speech on sovereignty everyone should hear.

Five things to remember about war:

Can't believe Joni Ernst did her "who cares about death anyway" so close to the anniversary of "Ode to Billie Joe": sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/searching-...

200+ scientists are in the middle of a marathon livestream to show why weather and climate science is so important and needs all our help to continue. It is here: wclivestream.com/watch

It's weird to me that so many of my neighbors voted to take away their own healthcare to give me a tax cut. They need their health care. I don't need a tax cut. Neither does anyone who makes more than me, either.

When I was in my twenties, I was repeatedly denied a medically necessary hysterectomy because I might “meet a man who wants kids”. I was left completely disabled, forced to undergo six surgeries, multiple blood & iron transfusions to preserve a diseased uterus for a HYPOTHETICAL child. 🧵

"For me, the answer now lies in refusal, the withdrawal of participation from systems that require dishonesty as the price of belonging." Today I am resigning from the National Science Board and the Library of Congress Scholars Council. I wrote about my decision in TIME. time.com/7285045/resi...

eight years ago today we all watched the glory of zendaya falling madly in love with tom holland and the internet was never the same

My brain: "The name of this guy we just met and are still talking to? Sorry, wasn't listening. And if you ask him again I'll trigger weapons-grade embarassmemt" Also my brain: "You know the music from level one of the 1990 Donald Duck Mega Drive game 'Quackshot'? That's today's soundtrack. Enjoy!"

Hahahahahahahaha youtu.be/rPfwtXulKS4?...

The absolute rage at DJs when they spoke over the intro or outro to a song you were trying to record onto cassette for a mix tape is something that young people will never know.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Once you decide that a service has to be profit-making, it becomes a race to the bottom in terms of how little service it can provide per dollar spent. Just like health insurance.

A perfect summing up.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jk0n...

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

I wish I knew. I saw this comment earlier on NYT: "Have blue states pass laws that all federal taxes must first be sent to the State treasury for disbursement to the Federal Government. If the Trump administration impounds funds that were budgeted by Congress then those governors withhold payments."

I would like to make an argument that Trump is taking a "great man" approach to the presidency. What does that mean? 😱 I'm afraid that it is not good. First, Hegel: “The great men in history are those whose own particular aims contain the substantial will that is the will of the World Spirit..."

Discworld QOTD, from Guards! Guards!

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

In 1944 the U.S. government wrote a sabotage guide for people in fascist occupied countries. It includes a section on how managers and office workers can slow down operations. It has been declassified and you can read and download it here: www.gutenberg.org/files/26184/...
