The major issue with Jasmine Crockett is that she has voted in favor of Israel and supported their claim to Palestine. As fun as it is to see her slam those on the right, another Dem committed to the same policies and pockets of politicians' past is of no help to the cause. James Talerico, however..

$901 Billion is such an unfathomable amount of money. The possibilities for its use span from universal healthcare to ending child hunger. It's enough to cover both of those things many times over. Instead, it's being used to fuel the charnel machine of colonialism and the end of "wokeness".

The occupation killed three-year-old Ahed Al-Biyouk in the Mawasi area of Rafah. The incident occurred amid continued Israeli violations of the ceasefire, including new strikes and ground fire across the Gaza Strip.

Hey, Nazis! 🖕

Remember in the board game Monopoly where you don't want other players to own all of the property because you'll lose? That applies to real life, too.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

Just watched Family Guy Episode 19 of Season 15 "Dearly Deported" and cried multiple times. Fuck ICE

Disabled people do not owe you their medical history. They do not owe you their diagnosis. They do not owe you an explanation. Benefits are exceedingly hard to get and the process is punishing & dehumanizing. No one is doing it for fun.

The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies. Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market. This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

The Hepatitis B vaccine was expected to prevent 9.5 million infections, 2.4 million chronic cases, and save 600,000 lives in the US by 2050. The federal vaccine committee has blood on their hands.

everyone needs to start pirating movies and TV shows again NOW

The art in question is this meme I made of one of my player's dnd characters as that weird ass Plankton meme

Finally doing some fucking art

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream. Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads. Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Just the concept of currency is so frustrating. Why can't we just provide for one another and do give a little/do a little extra when we want extra?

Disabled people deserve equity. They deserve fairness in all things, as every person does. Don't agree? You're one accident away from being disabled yourself. One illness. One more year. Being able-bodied is not permanent. Nothing is guaranteed, but equality can be.

I don't understand why everyone hates snow. I mean, I do. And that's because we have to drive everywhere, which is capitalism's fault, not snow's. But, after the past few years, I was getting really worried that global waking had taken away the possibility of enjoying a winter wonderland ever again.

Not trying to burst any bubbles; but Spotify is over. They are airing ICE recruitment ads, the CEO has been investing in military/AI tech, they barely pay their artists; sometimes a percentage of a cent per stream, they promote “fake/AI artist” playlists, and there’s major concerns about data use.

This isn’t Gaza. This is Lebanon. The occupation has been bombing the south of Lebanon daily since the so-called ceasefire was signed over a year ago, on November 27th, 2024.

Aftyn Behn may not have won, but she showed Tennessee and the rest of this country that the people are tired of the current institutions and traditionally conservative politics. This is evidence of a desire for change and the work being done to make it happen. Keep fighting comrades.

The US Govt. places no value on non-white bodies. We're infinitely expendable in the name of conquest and capital. If ICE, the police, Palestine, Sudan, and the Congo haven't shown you that in the past few years, let the murder of those Venezuelan fishermen punctuate and underline the situation.

Even if the Bible was a viable source for an academic essay, the essay still would have failed. "I believe" does not entail fact. It denotes opinion. That, and the grammar was ass. Worse than me using ass as a descriptor, even. Aside from that, her intention is as apparent as her transphobia.

I don't want to post about Stranger Things again at the risk of appearing like a petty hipster or some shit, but seriously? You guys can't be bothered to give up anything? Let alone a TV show???

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Officials preparing immigration operation in Minnesota that would primarily focus on Somali immigrants, AP source says.

Rewatched Idiocracy last night. I forgot Dax Shepherd was in it. I don't think he was even acting. His presence was almost more off-putting than the reality that we are still moving towards cognitive decline as a species in the same ways that Mike Judge noticed almost two decades ago.

Community notes don’t get much more brutal than this

Tennessee get out and vote Aftyn Behn!

Sec of war confesses to war crimes while trying to dunk on the MSM

I guess we all forgot that "Zionism is sexy" and Stephen King is a Zionist when it comes to Stranger Things and Welcome to Derry, huh?

Imagine having melanin in your skin and working for ICE.

Any time an article quotes Stephen Miller they should include a parenthetical about how his mommy and daddy bought him a $450,000 DC condo so he could wind up Jeff Sessions' Chief Racism Officer

Iran's regime drowns in corruption, building 523 dams that salinate soils, displace farmers, and ravage forests while privileging elite regions over minority basins. Lakes vanish, droughts rage. #Iran

The era we are living in offers too many illustrations of greed, narcissism, and hatefulness. But I still believe we can recommit ourselves to serving the common good of all Americans. [Artwork by Jennifer Bloomer]

Your education cannot be social media. If you're not reading, you're not learning. Podcasts can be educational when they have scholars, authors, etc who actually have expertise on a topic. Reading is essential. When Kendrick said "turn the TV off" it was more than a metaphor.

Imagine showing a petrol engine to someone who had only known electric vehicles, and trying to convince them to switch to petrol. No-one would choose the dirty, noisy, less efficient, more expensive vehicle. This isn't 1910, hostage to gender insecurity. We can just choose the better tech.

this is just gutter racism

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

On tomorrow's National Day of Mourning, which was first originally recognized by the US Govt. In 1970, calls for the remembrance of the atrocities committed by colonizers on the native people of the Americas. The colonizers history talks of peace, but the natives remember the truth.

Learning to be bored and trying to appreciate silence and the darkness more. It's been calming. We weren't meant to live under fluorescent bulbs and LEDs with the constant sound of a TV or a song in the background.

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

I am 26 and I have been warning people that Australians as well as mob have no bill of rights. For 14 years I have been told to shut the fuck up, it doesn't matter, we live in a democracy. Today both major parties just leapt into full fascism by making laws against any standards of human rights.
