Palestinian families like Ruba's are being starved to death in Israel's genocide. They're exhausted & very desperate. Please help by sharing & donating:

American peace activist Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi would've turned 27 today. But Israeli forces killed her 11 months ago. Both Biden & Trump did nothing to seek accountability. Instead the US sent Israel $12 billion in weapons & another $4 billion in aid. And then Israeli settlers killed another American.

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

This is so fucking scary and detrimental

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

A United States Senator. For trying to ask a question. Welcome to Donald Trump’s America. 🇺🇸

SUBS OPEN: There's a new zine project I'm editing hosted by Summit for Action's Community of Practice! The zine is called Toolkit for Tough Conversations and will feature a mix of art, storytelling, and accessible resources to help folks navigate challenging climate, environmental, and...

the hong kong protestors used the phrase "do not split" to mean that the radical protest and peaceful protest arms of the movement should refuse to criticize each other.

These are crimes. They're committing crimes. And when people understandably protest the fact that they're committing crimes, they're shooting flashbangs at them.

Hell of a photo

it appears to be official that for the first time in decades the president has federalized national guard troops and is sending them in to Los Angeles this evening. This is the statement from the White House It’s about to get very, very scary now. Be safe y’all. Fight for one another.

It should be the shame of the world's governments that a civilian ship is rescuing Sudanese migrants (from other governments who might kill or jail or displace them) and attempting to break a genocidal blockade while they just sit and watch and send money and weapons for more genocide.

Please share & give to help Mohammed's family survive Israel's genocide in Gaza. They're being starved, & donations are slow:

Please help my friend Kazem and his family. Kazem is doing all he can to keep them alive. chuffed.org/project/1307...

Mahmoud texted me again begging for help to feed his baby. Please, anyone with a regular income, anything to spare, help them. Their accounts are always deleted & they get very little traction on their fundraiser. Their baby Adam just turned 1 having known nothing but this genocide.

Jonathan Joss (Comanche, White Mountain Apache) did not simply die from a gunshot. He was murdered in a homophobic, racist hate crime by his former neighbors. He died saving his partners life. Honor his legacy-- both queerness and Indigeneity are inextricable to why he was targeted.

This is Cece McDonald all over again. Justice for Jaia Cruz, free her immediately.

This is NOT a joke

A youth services librarian has set up a petition asking Crunchyroll to reinstate their library outreach program - you can sign it here: chng.it/DS96MVfPQf #TLSky #EduSky #SchoolLibraries @mangalibrarian.bsky.social @bespokelib.bsky.social

Pride Month starts tomorrow. I'm going to post this once again.

And the sad part is, people will let it happen because being addicted to having fun is more important than caring about the rights of others

How am I supposed to go to work with this girl here?? 🥹

Sunrise meets moonrise + Venus this morning over Mississippi River bluffs from downtown St. Paul, Minnesota. 🌙♀️☀️

Salem, OR voters are generally a tax-hike hating lot, but on Tuesday they approved higher property taxes to support the library and other public services. The deep purple town also voted in a progressive majority on the School Board AND the City Council . www.salemreporter.com/2025/05/21/h...

This is one of 2 reasons why I hate "women and nonbinary" events. The other is that nonbinary people who look more femme (like me) often get treated like women and have she/hers pronouns thrown at us. Any event billed as "women and nonbinary" I avoid like the plague.

Even a few dollars can help. Do what you can for the Soboh family!

UN and doctors warn that volume of aid supplies for Gaza residents is insufficient following 11-week blockade.

I dunno, while it sucks a freelancer lost his job, he also routinely used AI for his articles and in this particular case he had AI write multiple articles almost entirely with no double checking. He literally did not do the job - write articles - he was paid to do.

The fact this family appears in News articles and topics and became news media famous and their account was deleted on BlueSky suggests BlueSky moderation is not deleting accounts because they think that Palestinian accounts are spam let alone fake. It is very blatant suppression of Palestinians.

Please share & give to help nurse Mohammed's family survive & escape Israel's genocidal famine & bombardment of Gaza, which doesn't spare hospitals. They need to get to safety as Israel intensifies its attack. Bsky keeps closing their accounts while they're starved & bombed. Donations are slow:

It looks like Salem, Oregon, voters passed their livability levy, which means the library won't shut down. Will it be forever changed? Yes, but it will still exist. . . and that was no guarantee. www.statesmanjournal.com/story/news/p...

Yesterday, in the EU foreign ministers council, Italy voted against a review of Israel's compliance with humanitarian law as required by its EU association agreement. Today, Israeli soldiers opened fire on Italian and other diplomats visiting Jenin.
