ROOTWORK: Rallying Together for These Times ❤️‍🔥 A UK-wide tour of workshops with @nkem-ndefo.bsky.social @lumostransforms.bsky.social. In this moment of polycrises there is no structural change without deep inner-led change that uproots & attends to root causes. www.eventbrite.com/cc/rootwork-...

Lower Bills. Protect our NHS. And invest in our communities. Let's make hope normal again. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

It’s very simple @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social Tolerance of those who want us dead is not practicing politics the right way

When people heal the impacts of trauma, they return to their humanity. And humanity is organically oriented toward life and love

Today the order banning #PalestineAction as "terrorists" came into effect. But they are not terrorists. They are protesters trying to stop a genocide. This is a "first they came for ..." situation. Unless we stand in solidarity against this assault on our freedom, they will pick us off one by one.

So the LA Sheriffs fired on LA police yesterday. Now tell me again who’s creating the violence Scanner audio: jumpshare.com/s/1E4idQmIk4...

My vote is always on the lettuce. It’s always the lettuce

Today on Long COVID Awareness Day, I want to remind my fellow "able bodied" folks that one of the best and easiest ways to be an ally to people with LC is to wear a high quality mask in public spaces. You make any space you're in just a bit safer by doing this.

Some "Russian Warship" vibes here from a tiny fed'l agency. via Brett Murphy: The African Development Foundation (budget ~$40 million) is putting up a fight and denying DOGE + Pete Marocco — the State Dept official dismantling USAID — access to their building:

No one is coming to save us. We have to save ourselves and each other!

Once again I am suggesting that you break some rules for practice. Get comfortable with breaking rules. When the rules are hurting other people, the right thing to do is break them. We need people who follow their moral code over the rules of their society, university, employer, and government.

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

I’m hearing from folks that they are feeling frozen and having a hard time getting going. There are a lot of external forces conspiring to keep us shut down, disconnected from our power, and shackled to the oppressive status quo

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Finally! Rep Pocan introducing the ELON MUSK Act. Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy

The entire archive of CDC datasets can be found here. HUGE shoutout to data archivists- this work is important 👏🙌🏻 archive.org/details/2025...

I’ve been invoking Popper’s paradox several times a day in the last couple of weeks. For the folks in the back: Tolerance of intolerant ideologies means those ideologies will gain ground leading to exclusion, oppression, and erasure. There is no both sides equivalence. We need to draw hard lines

I’ve never seen so many ppl in the US frozen in fear, shutdown and overwhelmed as the Trump regime ramps up. Knowing how to unthaw this physiological trauma response is vital to building any substantial resistance at the individual level but especially at scale

We need to protect each other like it’s 1936

The deliberate shifting of the Overton Window to normalize fascism. Apartheid Clyde knew exactly what he was doing

The smell of smoke is a primal trigger of our nervous systems. Adrenalin surging for hours has me obsessively checking Watch Duty as the #eatonfire marches steadily closer

For folks in the US, access to telehealth is about to go away. Please send a letter to your rep to renew the telehealth bill, a critical need for those of us unable to get to healthcare appts due to disabilities and the lack of covid safety in healthcare settings actionnetwork.org/letters/0ddc...

"When we access power from a place of dignity & agency, @nkem-ndefo.bsky.social explains, our innate sense of interdependence is activated... We align our individual power to collective well-being: ​“It’s the me within the us.”" inthesetimes.com/article/rehe...

Incredible new writing by Panthea Lee for @inthesetimesmag.bsky.social — a rich and powerful exploration of the healing & resistance of marginalised people told through her experience of #RehearsingFreedoms festival. inthesetimes.com/article/rehe...

"We must access more of our humanity and our wholeness than the deeply atomized oppressor that could only enact those forms of violence because they’re so dismembered themselves. We must keep rehearsing and fighting in real time." — Panthea Lee inthesetimes.com/article/rehe...

As the ICC finally issues arrest warrants for Israel’s leaders, here’s a promise. To those who helped facilitate Israel’s genocide - Western politicians, media outlets, and journalists: We will not rest until you are held accountable for the crime you helped commit.

Diagnosed with ME in 2011 and still waiting. Please sign this letter to the NIH asking them fund research on this disabling illness. And then share with everyone you know and love
