Too many people are in lala land at the moment.

Y’all won’t use plastic straws but you’re using GROK to plan your workouts??????????? Go dive off a street curb into a pool of trash bag juice.

Showing up...to what? Are people under the impression that the Civil Rights Movement was some single day protest where we can count the numbers and compare?

The Civil Rights Movement had objectives. What are the objectives of the No Kings movement? Who are its leaders?

Activisim with no discernable results cannot be "historically notable"

made the quoted thread, a response to a few of @jamellebouie.net’s recent posts, into a video, because sometimes it’s nice to see people’s faces, hear people’s voices, on an ever colder internet. this is part one. full video at normal speed: www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMfy98PR/

Trump once again takes advantage of D.C.’s unique vulnerability to federal interference and reinstated the death penalty last week. It hasn't been used here in 68 years.

what most people want at this moment is a fix for fascism that keeps the tone and power imbalances in tact and that's not gonna work

Today, Oct.2nd, is the anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi’s murder by Saudi agents.

Disney is still on the BDS list. Unless you think one Jimmy Kimmel is worth more than millions of Palestinians

Israel’s killing of five Al Jazeera journalists in Gaza prompts global outrage and calls for accountability.

Video shows the aftermath of the Israeli strike on a tent for media workers that assassinated five Al Jazeera journalists in Gaza City.

. @npr.org every single Al Jazeera reporter was killed in Gaza City and it's not worth a mention in your Israel reporting on Up First this morning?! You just mention one reporter and "several colleagues" but the weight of what happened is glossed over then you go to an Israeli mother's feelings?!

we can do this

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

i have been listening to the new clipse nonstop. album of the year imo

Guess what they’re clashing over Money. The cost of the concentration camp.

I don't think people heard the part in parenthesis, just you reaffirming 'immigration = bad' & even if they did, you're still contradicting yourself at the level of values bsky.app/profile/polp...

kamala's weakest messaging was on immigration: "trump is right (but we tried to pass a bill & he blocked it"

this is so good

So @nytimes.com anonymous citation of a Nazi doesn’t violate Times standards, but pointing out that fact does? 🧐

Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true. Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that. It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.

Whatever happens tomorrow Zohran and crew have run one of the best campaigns I've seen. CLEAR MESSAGING of what he wants to do, pummeling Cuomo while keeping a smile, no scandals, the NY media can't find a single personal thing to play against him and THEY ARE PISSED, no infighting stories.

The masks ICE agents wear aren’t masks. They’re face coverings designed to hide their identity. The masks disabled people have been pleading to normalize are KN95s, N95s and other respirators. Which will help protect you from COVID & other airborne threats! Normalize masking for public health.

Well, the government killed a lot of the people in those orgs. Red baited others into social death. There was that whole neoliberal turn where we said non-profits were more civilized than activists. Even with all of that, those orgs (even some of their people!) are still very much around.

63% of American adults had unfavorable views of Martin Luther King Jr in August 1966, per Gallup surveys 46% of Mississippi GOP voters said interracial marriage should be illegal in a 2011 PPP poll to push w/e is popular instead of trying to popularize justice is to admit you lack moral leadership

The federal government told states to turn over names, birthdates, Social Security numbers and other sensitive data about food assistance recipients. Amid a legal challenge, the agency says the request is on hold.

Mystery. Guess what they dont mention? nypost.com/2025/06/03/h...

Yeah. :( And bless people like Dom.

Deaths Caused By New Covid Variant No More Severe Than Deaths Caused By Earlier Variants Say Scientators

I use it very deliberately to link the current moment to COVID! Thank you. I’ve been thinking on that rupture for awhile:

What an odd little idea that is absolutely going to blow up in their faces.

We can have a better world than this. We absolutely can.

Five years ago, at May’s end, the newspaper of record notoriously called the nearly 100,000 lives then taken by Covid “an incalculable loss,” but that was then, they stopped counting (we stopped counting) long ago, so now as the losses continue they are truly incalculable.

"What we are doing in Gaza is a war of extermination: indiscriminate, unrestrained, brutal, and criminal killing of civilians,” [former Prime Minister Olmert] said." www.huffpost.com/entry/israel...

This is not a done deal. Please share a comment with the FDA

& so as we wade into uncharted territory re: vaccines, we must concurrently support other mitigation methods to prevent infection while working to reverse this course. there is already a network of folks doing this essential work. we must preserve the health we have before these quacks chip it away.

very frustrated by the way the press would rather focus on an imaginary horse race than the real stakes of the moment youtube.com/shorts/_DfOF...

BREAKING: Supreme Court allows Trump administration to strip legal protections from 350,000 Venezuelans, potentially exposing them to deportation.

Israel re-invades northern Gaza in 'bloody night' of bombardment. At least 250 people were killed in less than 48 hours, bombing the strip from land, air and sea. Horrific reports are coming out. @mrjamesob.bsky.social www.middleeasteye.net/news/israel-...

Going to start calling Sam Altman "Sloppenheimer"

School choice is a scam to funnel taxpayer money to private and religious schools…

Oh this is a nice observation. I think they’ve found this to be true for a lot of loneliness/depression? Small acts of shallow kindness (however performative) can increase our sense of belonging? I read it somewhere. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/clos...
