For two years now, my life has been nothing but war, tents, and displacement. I sleep in torn shelters, hungry, cold, sick and afraid. Winter is coming and our tent will not protect us. I literally risk my life just to get a good internet signal so I can ask for help for my family gofund.me/f116bf44

It is actually peak absurdity that we still have people arguing that voters should bend to the positions of their political representatives instead of the other way around.

No one asks for much. Just trying to feed and shelter their families. Please boost and donate:

Most of Ahmed’s family has fled to the South but he stayed in the North to help his mother- he has terrible internet so his sister reached out to me- they desperately need to evacuate

Please help me, my brothers. I have no one but you. I ask you to help and donate to me and my children. Please help me. Look at me with mercy. chuffed.org/project/1316...

🇵🇸 Gaza is calling… our voices are being hidden by algorithms. ✊ If you see this post, please leave a (.) or ❤️ to break the restriction. 🙏 Every repost means new hope for my family and for Gaza. ⬇️ Donation link: 🔗 chuffed.org/project/1532...

It cost us $1,500 to reach Deir al-Balah. The land you're seeing is 100 square meters. The monthly rent is $600, and the cost of water is $6 per day It's like death to us😭 Donate, don't make us beg. Verified by: @mommunism.bsky.social We will get through this together🙏🏻🙏🏻 chuffed.org/project/133274

When Ahmed's house was bombed his family lost everything, including clothes That winter, he wore just a tshirt for OVER A MONTH so his daughters and wife could have warm clothes first Now all four of them are at risk of the freezing cold again without a suitable tent 176/1100 gofund.me/124a7c49

“Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them.” ― Assata Shakur, Assata: An Autobiography

There's fascists running amok in our government but people are upset over other people liking sports. Find a dumpster. Go live in it. Ya trash.

dunno what else to say except we told you letting corporate conglomerates have control over democracy & technology was a bad idea that should be thoroughly undone. "Private equity… like BlackRock & Blackstone are buying local utilities [for AI] data centers, sparking ratepayer & regulator concerns"

They do not have enough popular support. So they are trying to outlaw / silence opposition. And that’s where we are. Pushing back has never mattered more.

This is important: Bluesky is telling us that it will not protect its users. Instead of pushing back against these policies that have no interest in anyone's safety, they'll comply. We need social media that is owned by its users, organized much like AO3. We're on borrowed time here.

I looked up several Gazan accounts I've boosted recently and over the past year and can only find a handful still around. So many posts and accounts deleted, sometimes within hours of being setup. Won't forget how this has gone down on this site.

I've been to Portland protests and let me tell you, when that city is galvanized? Watch tf out.

"Let's see what's out there..." It was 38 years ago today (Sept 28, 1987) that "Encounter at Farpoint" had its premiere broadcast, introducing Capt Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D. I'm proud to have been a member of the team who made the show at Paramount.

These agents need to lose their jobs and face criminal charges.

Oh they're absolutely overturning Obergefell if Thomas gets his way, aren't they, and he's probably trying to squeeze in an overturn of Lawrence v. Texas too, huh.

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

Not to burst your bubble because I live in Portland & wish he *had* called off the dogs, but that article about his confusion re the teevee making the rounds is from yesterday. Since then he *has* activated the OR NG, prompting our AG to sue. 🫤

Today Oregon’s message to Donald Trump was loud and clear: stay out.

Agreed. This ought to be examined immediately.

Does the president have object permanence

Targeted attack on a dockside restaurant in North Carolina. Three dead. Suspect a former Marine sniper in Iraq and Haiti who tried to sue the US govt for “genocide against straight men by the LGBQT community.” Flags at half mast? Endless op-eds? Victims’ faces on coins? www.cnn.com/2025/09/28/u...

100%. Let’s stop letting them pretend like this is about some random promise Obama made or Hillary Clinton saying the wrong thing. This is about white supremacy and a centuries long temper tantrum.

79. American citizen.

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

They have nothing else to offer the world but their shortcomings.

Here’s a video from today of press and a legal observer being specifically targeted.

This was really posted to Trump's real account, but the embedded video is entirely AI. Fox News never ran this, the anchor never said anything like this, Trump never said what's in the video, and the included images are famously just swiped from a CGI asset pack.

He's reposting an AI-generated post of himself, pushing one of the most transparently horseshit Qanon lies. I can only imagine it's to set the stage for a cash-in.

We live in the most insane timeline.

ICYMI on Thursday: Hawaii's Supreme Court keeps releasing opinions that denounce the U.S. Supreme Court. They call the Roberts court “pretend law.” The latest? A ruling that requires the police to record all interrogations, with more shots at SCOTUS from Hawaii Justice Eddins.

Portland ICE Facility: Federal agents made a violent arrest dragging a protester all the way across the driveway. They also deployed pepper balls on the crowd. It’s currently unclear why this person was arrested.

This is almost word for word the kind of stuff you would hear from the people doing the Holocaust said by the people in another time and another place committing an ethnic cleansing Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Portland declares ICE facility out of compliance, demands its clearance. www.portland.gov/mayor/keith-...

These folks have been on the ground in Chicago and on the receiving end of the abuse, documenting as much as possible. A timeline from today:

Here is the image with alt text

More video of that assault:

Another big assault by the federal agents. Tear gas, flash bangs, I don't know what else. People panic, scatter. Pushed all the way back to the highway. I can hear calls for medics.

Things are calm again. People are coughing from lingering chemical irritants in the air, but the federal agents have been behind their side of the fence for about 20 minutes, while the crowd gather nearby listening to one protestor gives a speech.

Leading up to federal agents - incl. ATF and Border Patrol - arresting @peoplesfabric.com, they came out in force to seize what looked like DIY shields stored by a tent, making several arrests in the process. It's unclear to me rn if @peoplesfabric.com was targeted or just a random arrest.

So much just happened. Can't process it all rn. Multiple people arrested, including press. Will share more when I can.

Good evening from outside the ICE processing facility in Broadview, IL. The scene at the moment m calm but very tense. Federal agents and several dozen protestors separated by the large fence that was erected - Broadview officials say illegally - earlier this week.

WOW. This entire story is HORRIFIC. This is FOIA of a body cam from the raid in upstate New York the same day as the Hyundai plant. It catches a Border Patrol agent on camera only bragging about denying medical care to migrants detained at the border under Biden — who he says are all "animals." 1/3

Somebody explain how this is *not* supposed to be seen as Nazi gestapo shit?

I didn't think it was a great movie, but something about Pacific Heights (1990): a violent scam artist infiltrates a happy-ish home, scares away the neighbors, doesn't pay rent, won't leave, destroys the flat, games the legal system, steals the owner's id, threatens the wife. Familiar.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

I love Portland. It might be the homiest city I know of. One of the places baby me felt safe and welcome, where being a little weird was a good thing and record stores were open all night. You could mix with EVERYBODY. Be strong, stay you. They will never win.
