Welp. 😄😄

The Street Vendors Association of Chicago is raising emergency funds to support vendors who can't safely work right now. They have a significant goal of $300k for impacted workers + families. GFM is here: www.gofundme.com/f/chicago-st... Instagram account: instagram.com/streetvendorsofchicago

DOGE was a success because the entire point of it was the greatest data theft scheme in history and they did it

This is so deeply concerning. What happened to those people?

Re Some Post I Saw Earlier: I think we all have been expecting corporations to stand up to some degree. Not to protect us, necessarily, but for their own preservation. That's why some action has focused on boycotts. Because we know the power we have to force their hand if they choose capitulation.

Came to see what time this rapture is supposed to be starting.

#OpEd: "We can’t bury the deeper, driving forces behind why this is happening. This phenomenon is only possible because of the outsized power that state agents — ICE, police officers, prison staff — have always had to abuse and control women and victims' bodies." Read the full story here. ⬇️

Breaking every damn law known to man. These are some despicable, deplorable, evil people.

Those folks just impeached and jailed their corrupt ass president. They are not taking any mess off of us.

Younger people won't believe this, but during the Second World War, Disney put out cartoons about how it was your patriotic duty to stand up to fascists, even noting that we'd each have to take a financial hit if we wanted to win that struggle. No, really!

Are you doing a neat Ursula-related project? Talking about her work on a podcast, or reviewing the prize shortlist, or anything else? We'd love to hear about it, if so! You can always tag us here, and every email that comes through the contact form is read by an actual person.

The people they are kidnapping are disappearing.

Like clockwork. Who could have known? Every person from a marginalized group that's been shouting it for decades. Y'all ready to listen yet?

These companies are going to learn there's not enough maga in the world to make up for the global business you will lose for capitulating to fascists.

I almost posted a very similar thought yesterday. I want every woman dressing like a witch this fall.

I voted no on the House Resolution that honors a legacy of racism. Please read my full statement.

Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

😄😄😄 May be able to crack down here, but this administration is the joke of the world.

At Broadview ICE facility, federal agents hurl tear gas and pepper spray at protesters blocking vans www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/19/t...

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us. We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again. That's the revolution.

Actually, documenting (keeping a written record of) the things you know to be fact is really important at this time. Live in a close knit community? Know which of your neighbors are ICE? Know which answere the national guard summons to terrorize cities. Keep a personal record. It will be important.

Even the most minimal weightlifting makes every muscle in my body go crazy. These thighs are exploding right now.

"This isn’t the America I know” Black People checking that balance:

If all I do is spend the rest of my life watching independent programming on whatever streaming service hasn't capitulated to capitalism, that's what I'll do.

Boycotts are expanding.

This is staggering. Dismantling the right wing propaganda machine is imo one of the biggest and most vital obstacles to the future of this country.

I stand with PBS. I stand with NPR. I stand with Stephen Colbert. I stand with Jimmy Kimmel. I stand with the First Amendment. PERIOD.* *Also #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files

I hope every evil these people commit for ICE eats at their souls for the rest of their lives.

“This can’t be interpreted…as anything else but an attack directly on trans kids.” In my first byline for @teenvogue.com, I spoke with trans students, with Texas teachers, and those who support them about this troubling law that's singling out trans, enby and gender nonconforming young folks:

🚨 JOIN US TODAY AT 12:00 PM to protest ABC and demand they bring back #jimmykimmellive. 🚨

I wonder if Sinclair has a licensing agreement with ABC. I wonder if ABC can let that agreement lapse with Sinclair, so that Sinclair doesn't have permission to show any of its programming. How does that work, exactly?

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group. There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi. He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Just so I'm clear: TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft. TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism. Free speech, everyone.

There's a lot of internal divestment that we all need to do. Abandon every one of these corporations.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Here's where to rent THE PATH FORWARD. Palestinians and Israeli Jews have been working together for years to carve out a path to justice, peace, freedom. Not most, but not none. A glimmer of hope. Directed by myself and @mohusseini.com. watch.grasshopperfilm.com/films/the-pa...

Honestly, as often as we can, in as many ways as we can, we should all be loudly saying fuck all of these guys.

Brazil just show us how it should be done.

Word.

just keep thinking how Black feminists clocked the manufactured "cancel culture" panic from the beginning.
