Our goal is to reach 50% of our fundraising goal for the Black Zine Fair by the end of the year. gogetfunding.com/black-zine-f... - If you can support us in bringing the fair to life, we would very much appreciate it.

Leqaa Kordia has been held in ICE detention for nearly ten months.

Every time you’re mad that someone isn’t replying to you fast enough somewhere someone else is also mad at you for not replying to them fast enough

In America white men can’t do anything, because of woke

If you’re in a bad mood may I recommend choosing an instrument and playing along to all of Stop Making Sense start to finish. At the end you will be a sweaty pile of joy with hamburger-meat fingertips

A disturbing account from a Queens woman describes immigration detention with her first-grade daughter.

Always remember that Grimes is a deeply, deeply stupid rich kid who tried to float down the Mississippi in a self-designed “houseboat” full of potatoes. Under no circumstances and at no point in time should you respond to anything she says or does as if there is an intellect behind it.

I think it’s sad how people won’t stop eating buffalo wings even though buffalo are endangered :(

What art show should I see while I’m downtown for brunch

I love when academics vaguepost in their own fields. “Seems significant that…” “It’s not a coincidence that…” “There are reasons why…” OK Herr Doktor Professor, do you want to maybe also spell out the significance or do you just really want us to know that you know.

I’m sorry this is nonsense and not the way culture works. Every single person who saw Forrest Gump in theaters one time came out screaming “RUN FORREST RUN” for the next two weeks.

Not to be controversial but I think we should use tools and resources to make people's lives less miserable instead of more

It snowed for 30 minutes then stopped! I want my money back 😡

There was 0 snow 30 minutes ago, I think this is gonna be a good one.

Tbh I would love a snowstorm so epic that there’s simply no question of leaving my neighborhood tomorrow.

Despite the snow I will persevere and either return home with fried chicken or die in the attempt. Because I didn’t move to the US to not eat fried chicken.

NYC weather report: Snow has started in Washington Heights! I happen to be near Trinity church’s uptown graveyard rn and it’s both beautiful and creepy, just the way I like it.

The fried chicken place near my gym closed :( God dammit can I not even have a fucking bucket of chicken grease to shove my head into like a feeding trough at the end of the week I THOUGHT THIS WAS AMERICA

I think I’d loathe the menswear guy less if I thought his audience was an army of immaculately tailored fashionistas but I know what kind of people that sort of gayness appeals to and it’s not fashionistas it’s officer workers who bookmark the new Le Creuset colorway every year but never cook.

OK so this response neatly encapsulates what I don’t like about this account and its many followers. It’s smug and condescending despite *completely missing the point,* which had nothing to do with money.

Fight for your local public library. The public library is one of the last true common goods. a place where society spends money so everyone can get reliable, useful services for free with no expectation of exchange or profit.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Abed. Abed is a dentist who managed a practice. It was destroyed as well as his home. He has been displaced 13 times along with his children Sabreen, 8, Salah, 7 and Ahmed, 5. Sabreen and Salah both have facial injuries that need treatment.

the graduation of a cohort of gaza’s new medical professionals in front of the ruins of al shifa hospital. No words, really.

Every year the holidays loom so huge and then you wake up the next morning and all of that affect melts into bags of torn-up wrapping and discarded husks of dead trees.

sin that pays its way can travel freely, and without a passport; whereas Virtue, if a pauper, is stopped at all frontiers

throbbing and heaving just below the surface of the sea

What’s going on with search? When I put in “Nigeria” it says the most recent posts are 5 hours old

Trump bombed Nigeria!?!? On Christmas?!?!? WTF.

Let’s be honest the US media doesn’t need any foreign interference to make itself look stupid

Every year this list comes out and every year I think the same two things: straight people are not responsible enough for anal, and straight-identified men are consistently the biggest hungriest bottoms, especially when they find a girl who’s into it. Gays just don’t put lightbulbs up there sorry.

If you think men are more likely to deliver more honest and useful criticism than women you had a very different childhood than me.

Learning now that by opening a Waymo’s door as you walk past it you can take it out commission AND create $20 of profit for a gig worker. Sounds like a win-win

I’ve been worried about this. People who signed up for a US ‘self-deportation’ scheme say their payoffs were delayed, misdirected or never arrived – leaving them empty-handed in their home countries.

Authorities have reported the death of a Nicaraguan immigrant in ICE custody in a hospital in Natchez, Mississippi, the seventh reported death of an immigrant in ICE custody this month. buff.ly/NntUdNz

It is the annual Making Of The Soup. If you want to feed some folks sleeping rough, I got me two hundred takeout quart containers. And a metric fuckton of tomatoes. And a Vitamix. Chip in: Venmo linda-tirado-3 PayPal [email protected] Chime $linda-tirado-3 Happy Christmas to every one

Recession indicator: they opened a new Burger King in Harlem (there hasn’t been a Burger King in Manhattan in 13 years since the last one near Times Sq closed)

"The Women’s Refugee Commission, and Physicians for Human Rights, claim that over half of the newly-arrived migrants they spoke with in Honduras said they were not given the option of bringing their children with them." https://bit.ly/4pPvkRH

The Biden administration’s failure to prevent a second trump term is a permanent and unequivocal condemnation of that administration that overwhelms anything good they might have done.

“There is nothing in the annals of New York political history quite like the scandals that enveloped Adams and his administration — and that’s saying something."

The statistic was quietly posted online in a department report in recent days.

What happened to Taibbi, did a horse kick him in the head?

This mini-thread is one of several reasons I’m not playing Detective Pikachu in these files and just letting people who know what they’re doing tell me what’s in them. I don’t have enough knowledge to regulate my emotional responses to the reading.

Not to be a philosopher but what does “can’t” mean exactly, in the mind of a US law professor in 2025.

The US government has deported a US citizen with a Maryland birth certificate they claim is fake. This goes way beyond even denaturalizing an immigrant citizen. This person was born here.

Omg this is the stupidest timeline truly
