Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Greenland: "We urge the United States to stop using the so-called 'China threat' as a pretext to pursue selfish interests."

So much respect for the people of Minnesota. I hope that union list grows bigger. inthesetimes.com/article/minn...

I donated $100. What can you donate?

@repmcgovern.bsky.social disgrace.

American imperialism hasn’t been expanded by just Republican administrations. Democrats have led with it too.

Tremendous reporting by @globespotlight.bsky.social, including many examples of cops lying about the existence of CIs to obtain search warrants, cops coercing female CIs into sexual and romantic relationships, and a 99.8% approval rate of search warrant applications by clerks... #mapoli #bospoli

police union president thomas duffy is suing tom marino of this week in worcester (defamation, filed today) for writing true things about him, a public figure, that are of public interest. The suit, which Duffy paid $275 to file, is for $10,000,000. This guy is a fucking bad joke

When you’re sitting in Belfast trying to forget about home for awhile. CLASSIC Worcester. Can’t escape!!!

Last night I went to a vigil for a 40 y/o man who died from exposure a few weeks after the cops raided his camp at 4 am and trashed his tent during the coldest November stretch in recent memory. So I’ll pass on writing about the council complaining about a DPW they won’t fund tyvm

The bravest person I know, right here.

Here is the text of the resolution that deeply offended Councilor Colorio & Bergman. They are tired of hearing about what happened on Eureka St., and my "ideology" in this resolution. Like I said, my ideology is love for my neighbors. What's yours?

The majority faction within the Worcester City Council self-describes as moderate while taking extreme positions against core American values of governance.

Many of you have asked how to help. One, you can always donate to cover the thousands of dollars that it has taken & will take to bring this case to resolution. givebutter.com/EtelFriends

The life that American capitalism in 2025 wants for you

"Long-term planning by the Office of the City Manager is essential. We cannot continue operating in a reactive mode or find ourselves playing catch up each winter. Our city needs a coordinated plan that ensures predictable shelter capacity" says City Councilor Khrystian King

It is 10:30 at night If I go into a non-downtown neighborhood and start flashing lights like this into people's windows, do you think I'll get arrested

Today in why I have no patience for Clinton supporters

I am so glad the National Low Income Housing Coalition is suing the Trump Admin for the new rules that slash permanent supportive housing funding & imposing work-education and forced drug treatment in return for accessing Transitional Housing. mailchi.mp/nlihc/rw_sta...

You can never say you didn’t know. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkeK...

I listened to this little angel die in real time. Now, it’s time for every American to listen. It will break you. The trailer alone. And it should. Our tax dollars and indifference have allowed the occupation of Palestine and the genocide of her people. It must end.

Did you know Worcester's best Mediterranean market - Ed Hyder's - is turning 50 this year?! Well you do now! Go get some hoomus and keep them going another 50 on this #SmallBusinessSaturday!

The top few aren't surprising, though I hadn't realized Amazon had surpassed Walmart in this. What IS somewhat surprising, and infuriating, is that MGB is on this list, not too far behind. A hospital system contributing to poverty like this is embarrassing. And should be against their mission.

This is the light from a cop cars sitting with its lights on under the Green St bridge to make sure no one on the street sleeps there Coming across a wide intersection and several dozen feet into our bedroom None of this is okay

Official numbers from the recount.

The only thing we should take away from today is bringing back this video.

Very cool to be part of the recount process- unfortunate outcome. Actually felt insane looking at some of these ballot combinations. Welcome to Worcester.

Bergman didn’t provide lunch for his volunteers. Jermoh did- and I watched Wayne Griffin waltz over and help himself to pizza from the clearly marked table. Wish I had pulled a Wayne Griffin and videoed it but was too baffled.

We’re at North High School / 150 Harrington Way (in the gym) and it’s okay to come help even if you didn’t register in advance 💜

We need more volunteers! Today and tomorrow. Please, support Jermoh and the recount! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

ohhhhh she's been got for decades lol

I want to add specifically- @repmcgovern.bsky.social has chosen to remain silent. You've chosen your side, you've chosen to be idle in the face of injustice and abuse of power. History remembers those who act, and history remembers those who cower.

Great reporting about a devastating plan from my local folks. @masspolwatch.bsky.social and crew is doing amazing work with no resources while our Gannet owned skeletal local and alt weekly get laid out in Texas.

Sunday, we're putting on another group study on a foundational topic in socialist thought: imperialism and the international struggle Let's talk about US empire and the struggle for a liberated world🇵🇸🌹 worcdsa.org/rsvp

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

🧵 open letter to Holy Cross President. Also emailed to him. Dear President Rougeau: I first met you at my first inauguration as a City Councilor in January 2022. You were our opening speaker. I do not remember your words from that long ago, but, I do remember sharing a common thread with you

The slightest commerce with ICE must bring about social consequences so severe that no door will ever open for the collaborator again as long as they live.

My fellow Worcesterites, Holy Cross University has allowed an ICE agent, Ryan Vasquez, to attend their upcoming career day in a recruiting capacity. Tell their president what you think of this. Holy Cross President: Vincent Rougeau [email protected] [email protected] 508 793 2525

here's what I wrote/vm if you want a pretty tame script - It is my understanding that Holy Cross's ideals are grounded in Jesuit traditions that call us to care for one another's physical and mental well-being, seek justice for the marginalized, and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with those in need.

Holy Cross: Our ideals are grounded in Jesuit traditions that call us to care for one another's physical and mental well-being, seek justice for the marginalized, and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with those in need. Also Holy Cross: invites DHS & ICE to campus

Just a reminder that Worcester has its own Epstein scandal that no one in power except like 3 have been even remotely willing to address. www.instagram.com/p/DQ90OkqjuG...

This is the district next to mine. Community members are calling for independent oversight of the investigation into whether teachers' social media posts about Charlie Kirk should lose them their jobs. www.change.org/p/reinstate-...

Anyone else watching @thisweekinwoo.bsky.social right now?!?!

Wachusett Regional School District gave into being trolled by Turtle Boy and right wing extremists- and my dear friend has been on “administrative leave” ever since. With no end or resolution in sight- for an innocuous post she made on her PRIVATE social media. Please sign & share. c.org/srVWZHRdqv
