Martinelli sucks

@mayor.nyc.gov In light of the passing of Sonny Rollins today, let’s rename the Williamsburg Bridge, which he practiced on every day from 1959-1961, in his honor! www.theguardian.com/music/2022/j...

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito leaned on an erroneous claim that Black voter turnout now tops white voter turnout, in his Callais v. Louisiana ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act, reports The Guardian. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This is exactly it. It's hugely depressing & horribly echoes the avaricious zeitgeist & politics of our time. This idea that there's only any point to it if a book is going to be MASSIVE. Some of us don't want to be massive, or rich, or famous. We just want to be able to continue to write books.

You can order pills from overseas clinics and mutual aid groups. *Possessing* mifepristone is not a crime (except in Louisiana). I'm not saying I have some but I am saying if you are someone who can get pregnant or knows people who can, order some now. www.plancpills.org

Is it just me, or does almond milk taste like disappointment?

This situation is intolerable. Agent Orange must go. Not in our name!

“This is the ‘Millenium of Aftermath’” -NostraDremus

Wait, are you telling me the “They’re eating the pets” guy is unhinged and unfit for the Presidency? Whaaaaa??? No way! Who could have foreseen it?

If you think No Kings is too vague or insufficiently radical, I sincerely encourage you to go to your local No Kings rally tomorrow and hand out flyers/zines to recruit folks to your org/cause. It's a perfect recruitment event! Thousands of people eager to DO STUFF! Get out there!

TSA officials alerted ICE that that mother and child were at SFO and should forever get fu**ed

Every time we say "immigration enforcement" (yes, including to condemn it) for assaults, abductions and murders, we are reinforcing the lie that "immigration" is the topic and that some sort of laws/standards are being fulfilled. Would you have called Jewish ghettos "religion enforcement"?

How’s about Elon gets one lash for every death his Doge cuts cause? Could be a pay-per-view extravaganza!

I don't know who I hate more. Conservatives for being vile. The Apolitical for being useless. The Centrists for assuming you can compromise with Nazis. Every one of them is responsible for the rise of the American Nazi Party. Every one of them is responsible for Trump. 😒

Secretary of Health and Human Services: “I’m not scared of a germ”

LIVE: Bondi’s insane Epstein hearing performance + Netanyahu meeting with Trump at the White House yesterday. We’re talking about it right now on Coffee with the Contrarians: https://open.substack.com/live-stream/113545

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

The cabal is coming from inside the (White) House

Wait… the guy behind a months-long violent race purge is racist?

Democratic leadership need to be waking up every morning with the singular goal of matching the energy of the heroes on the ground in Minnesota.

Trump must pay

Oft remarked, but seriously why is Vance permanently yassified?

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Any Dem elected that votes to fund I.C.E. should be cast out of the party. This is not a time for political calculation but for principled action. ENOUGH!

There's no moving forward as a country without a cleansing moral fire. There is going to need to be a leadership that embraces that reality, whether Dems like it or not

ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.” it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

We're at the "Don't go out in public if you have brown skin because you might be murdered or kidnapped" stage of white supremacist fascism.

A very long and important THREAD - The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974. And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself. Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

He’s not hiding his medical records because he’s healthy, and he’s not hiding the Epstein files because he’s innocent. This isn’t complicated.

Dean Coombs still uses a rare, 105-year-old linotype machine to produce his weekly newspaper — circulation 380 — in south-central Colorado. “I’m not going to give up on this newspaper. I don’t know why. I’m not a person of change.”

I’m at the combination Pizza Hut and Kennedy Center.

Barbarians at the Gates: Panic at Nabisco

“Reiner’s death marks an incongruously tragic end for an artist who exuded warmth and whose work, even at its darkest, seemed to reflect a belief in essential human decency.”

The titular wokeness being rolled back is the Civil Rights Act of 1964

I knew that Mamdani had it; he had the people and did the work, and has been the clearest and most lucid in rejecting the untenable current state of things. But the vile, bigoted shit against him was so constant, and I am conditioned to that working better than I want. This feels like an exorcism.
