Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think

Someone else decided this was good enough to sell prints of without my consent, so if you're interested in prints - I just put this up on my inprnt www.inprnt.com/gallery/skul...

not to brag but that's exactly what i'm on my way to do

Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

BAAAAAAABE BABE BABE BABE WAKE UP THEY’RE RECREATING THE 2008 FINANCIAL CRISIS FROM FIRST PRINCIPLES

we need to develop new types of bands that are more fun to be in than to listen to and then we need to be in those bands together.

his internal what?

I skate onto the ice to the opening chords of “We Are Charlie Kirk” wearing a sequined version of his usual white dress shirt & black slacks a long red cape flowing behind me I check to make sure the squibs are secure in the collar of my costume I give my partner in the stands a quick thumbs up

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Star Wars ended with Andor it's over now we got all we could get out of it Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

the thing i'm waiting for with the ai romance novel lady is for another scammer to figure out that purely ai-generated material w no human authorship is generally not considered to be protected by copyright in the US rn, and saving themselves the 45 mins per book by reselling hers

Just saw it again - still fucking whips

ALL city hospitals are operating as warming centers. 311 is directing people to call 911 if unhoused folks are outdoors. Scattered power outages across the boroughs, density in Bushwick. DO NOT USE YOUR OVEN TO HEAT YOUR HOME

few mountain goats lyrics as fundamentally relatable as "get told to maybe dial it back backstage later on"

Zohran’s Isildur at Mt. Doom moment

The Wayback is now so load-bearing we should be protecting it with our actual lives

i very much enjoy watching a guy encounter horrors beyond comphrension. And also independent films succeeding at the box office. #art

the problem is that entire generation of dems and their younger disciples are all elitist pricks who think one of their main jobs is to discipline their base, NOT reflect that base's policy preferences. which is why we need to kick every last one of them out of office

King: boy those Epstein emails King: it's really sobering to see how money and power allowed sex predators to operate Neil Gaiman: hello everyone Gaiman: i'm back Barker: oh boy Barker: oh boy you sure picked a time

I hope people realize that the emails released don't show a uniquely influential member of the super rich, but rather just an example of the amount of influence each extremely rich person exerts on popular culture. He represents just one replaceable point in a network, not the network itself.

found a stack of these cleaning up my studio the other day. as ever!!!

Will, think for a second. Black bloc is a tactic people use for an hour or two at a protest. They don't spend their whole lives in bloc. Has it occurred to you that the people who show up in bloc are very possibly often some of the same people doing this other work the other 167 hours of the day?

new yorkers survive in the city long-term by traveling in a kind of invisible force field bubble that maintains another body's amount of space between you & everyone else whenever possible. the snowbanks are collapsing this & everybody is riding a knife's edge of irritation that is starting to give

right like it seriously needs to be reiterated a billion times that the incidents here aren't conspiratorially unique but a machinic form of patriarchal violence and violation that occurs in fractals and scales at all levels of society. sexual abuse is the glue of structures of exploitation

KOKO THE GORILLA: koko send email. practical Koko type message Jeffrey Epstein: kooko... part y nex=t week coming>? KOKO: good email good koko give beautiful koko helicopter to jungle JE: kko, we cnt get u gorlluhh. endsong vits to is. Land KOKO: jealousy pedophile

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

What a relief to have Zohran as mayor

Some further reading on this subject for folks who'd like to learn more about general strikes as a tactic (and about the one that's already being planned for 2028): www.teenvogue.com/story/uaw-ge...

insisting on calling every mass day of protest or one-day boycott a "general strike" is not the move. it's good to see people rallying around the cause, it matters, but if you want to be part of a large-scale labor action that shuts down the gears of capital, start by unionizing your workplace!!!

BREAKING: Tenants across Minneapolis and Saint Paul have just launched a Twin Cities tenant union, citing the fact that their cities are under siege, and saying they need to band together to protect one another. linktr.ee/twincitieste...

they're gonna finally make breaking the law illegal!

Yes. They also “lost” in Los Angeles last summer and just yesterday they carried out a record number of kidnappings here in the city.

What makes Gavin Newsom such a skilled politician is that he stands up to Trump’s bullying with piping hot memes AND is able to agree with Trump about policy www.sacbee.com

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images. This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

cuck schumer

it is incredible how everyone just moved on from the fact the US kidnapped another country’s president and is now effectively the puppet master of the government it left in power

Today is "Large boulder the size of a small boulder" day!

No more final girls. The cast of characters in every slasher needs to unionize

I'm thinking about this in the twin cities. we are winning but what are we going to do the way after we win?

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

As a reminder: whiteness as a concept and organizational structure is rooted in individualism, scarcity, competition, and the outsourcing of care from communities to governments. Moving from or through a lens of whiteness to address social problems will always fail.
