An MP in Zimbabwe has called for the repeal of the country's "backwards" 1977 abortion law. He argued that safe abortion should be available to a wider range of Zimbabwean women, as it is currently restricted to a privileged few. Each year, 60,000 women die due to unsafe abortion.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Yup. It won’t do that. It won’t even write essays well lol

Ooh can’t wait to refer to this paper when I am teaching students about problems of AI and the unfortunate popularity of horrid techo-fixations among the capitalist elite

Let’s hope they chicken out as they have done when confronted with basically any real resistance

Scientists: Humanity has missed 1.5C climate target Politicians after 30 COP meetings: We have the beginning of a concept of a plan to begin discussing phasing out of fossil fuels eventually, maybe, someday

I make this bad joke every year but it still holds: ACAB means that All Cops Are Bastards and that includes this COP Climate COP is as much a tool enabling elite inaction as it is helping humanity address climate crisis

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Twitter now displays where accounts are from and it has confirmed that too many of the political accounts are out of country bots. Why are folks still there? To argue with bots? A waste of precious time while enriching the richest man on Earth. Delete your account.

Again I’m so glad I escaped twitter, but also: good reminder that one of the problems is being exposed to an untrue representation of “what Americans think” (ie they aren’t as Nazi/idiotic/Trumpian as you might think from being on X)

I had a similar experience/reaction: first, hella mad at Google for linking their AI BS to actually useful features like priority inboxes…but after I turned it all off, I’m now getting a lot of un-subscribing done and getting better at just erasing many emails rather than let them bog my life down!

Humans will NEVER colonize another planet. Never. If we can’t even agree to do the minimum to keep Earth habitable, there’s no way in hell we’ll cooperate to make another planet habitable.

Let’s not overestimate the popularity of Nazis like Fuentes

How many times do we have to say fuck @nytimes.com and its consistently pro-genocide, pro-cop, “we love fascists more than leftists” coverage

Oh great a feel good story about one person the state managed NOT to murder by way of prison! Wouldn’t it be nice if NPR had ever taken prison abolitionist politics seriously?

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

Daniel Lurie: smart billionaires are the ones that try the thing that has definitely been tried before and definitely did not work when it was tried before. Say hello to revamping the failed War on Drugs! SF rich/tech self-description as “innovative” is always good for a laugh/cry response

Is someone going to humanitarian intervention us yet?

I think “Sacrifice Alex Karp” is actually a winning campaign message

I don’t generally support politicians, period, but I support politicians trolling other politicians! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Especially when their target is a lying sack of shit like Mike Johnson.

Yet investors are never “exhausted” by the murder, genocide, surveillance, suppression, and authoritarian political control their companies advance

Make Liars Afraid (to lie) Again

Yes there is something called “mainstream media” and yes they do suck big big big balls and should not exist

With all these extrajudicial boat murders, we have a president who is not only an adjudicated rapist, but also an unapprehended serial killer.

Fully agree: not that I’m undisturbed by the authoritarian turn in politics, but this turn is made so much more frightfully worrisome by increasingly widespread ignorance & ill-informed political views, which are themselves artifacts of an already toxic media ecosystem getting worse

They won’t even let us have Teen Vogue!!!

the core fascist proposition is that "your" country is being both endangered & contaminated by the non-white, the racially inferior, & sexual deviants. that effeminate elites & intellectuals are allowing this to happen. & that to survive you must surrender control to men of violence

“But we interviewed the friendly sycophants in the Trump administration and they say it’s just fine”. News. Done. 🫡

Great example of how NOT to conduct polling or interpret polling data! Almost like this poll maker and analysis should not be trusted whatsoever 🤔

Videos like this make me think I should never feel like I am inadequate at my job

a video of the young man's arrest shows him backing up, following commands, while having a weapon drawn on him. He's then surrounded, thrown to the ground, jumped on, and detained. shared with permission.

really just the GREATEST this nation has ever known 🫡

🤣🤣🤣

I just think AI is so exciting bc it's a machine that you can get wrong answers from, that yields environmental devastation, and is being forced on all of us

I hope disaffected liberals are starting to see the “supreme” court as the white supremacist institution that it is!

white reactionaries disenfranchising black voters to secure political power? that’s a jim crow. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/15/u...

Good. The more mainstream media actually treats Trump like an extreme authoritarian, the better. Going along to get along is NOT good journalistic practice.

People just don’t know enough history to know who the bad guys are… because it’s quite obvious once you do!

Better headline: “Scientific American loses its credibility promoting bullshit AI that no one wants or needs”

Just like antifa means opposed to fascism: Antiracist is the opposite of racist (CRT anyone?). The opposite of DEI is uniformity, inequity, and exclusion. “Woke” is opposite of this Republican crap. It’s not that complicated. Being anti-“woke” is being a reactionary 💩

Wouldn’t it be great if reporters were reporting relevant reality more often?

Not surprised but Texas is about as Free Speech-friendly as Elon Musk’s butthole (aka his mouth) is

Nation’s Indigenous People Confirm They Don’t Need Special Holiday, Just Large Swaths Of Land Returned Immediately https://theonion.com/nation-s-indigenous-people-confirm-they-don-t-need-spec-1839033177/

As close as they might get there really are no good billionaires

Ah liberals. Always ready to take digs at the Right by celebrating the victories of… the Right (in case you didn’t know, this woman sucks: she supports Trump’s extra-judicial killings, Israel, sanctions on her own people, etc) “Democracy in Venezuela”? Let’s have it in the USA too shall we?

Another shocking revelation 😱 Ok ok I know good journalism is important, & it matters to disclose this admin’s bad acts, but these people are evil in literally everything they do! Anyone who isn’t a cultist can see this! I still think the limiting factor for change isn’t potentially damaging intel.

When I was young, there was a radical poster that said “cars are the dinosaurs of tomorrow”… now I see that phrase was optimistic; we have to make cars the large prehistoric land mammals of tomorrow (a.k.a., they will only go away if we extinct them ourselves!)

Reminder to anyone who thinks the “peace prize” means really anything; they gave it to Obama the drone bomber of civilians in chief. This is not an institution dedicated to peace. It is dedicated to western hegemony, which includes the active project to undermine the people of Venezuela.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Mark Bray keeps it real: it’s really not that hard to see through the Trump admin’s lies and fear mongering! Wishing the best to him and his family, plus all of us who are unfortunately committed to being anti-fascist no matter the personal costs!
