We get pets knowing the span of their years but even with that knowing, losing one still hurts so bad… 😔

This is my “daughter of a Black Panther breakfast program volunteer” coming out but anyone who tells you that you have to be public about all your resistance activity should immediately be under suspicion for being an op, or being under the influence of an op

This @melissagiragrant.com piece takes on social media narratives about protesting ('why aren't people in the streets?'), and highlights the fact that many communities have BEEN protesting, never STOPPED protesting, are ALWAYS fighting for their lives.

Forget the fact that there are high schoolers across the country CURRENTLY staging walkouts to protest ICE, but it's so rich to be sitting where YOU are doing NO PROTESTING and acting like a stage manager expecting others to do so.

Great News! In response to our motion, the court has restricted access to the Treasury Department payment system, barring sharing of sensitive data with Elon Musk’s DOGE.

There it is

Seeing pics and videos of Palestinians returning to their homes and regardless of the condition, their joy is palpable.

I admit I did not have "OpenAI gets Temu'd" as a pale horse but if this is what does it, lol

Anti-Tesla graffiti seen in Berlin

The grey is violently greying outside this morning.

May Uncle Khaled rest in peace and have a joyful reunion with Reem and Tareq. He will never be forgotten.

Graff in Baltimore referring to Kuwasi Balagoon, a Black Liberation Army soldier & anarchist political prisoner who died in prison on December 13, 1986.

On December 13, 1986, Black Liberation Army (BLA) soldier, anarchist political prisoner Kuwasi Balagoon died in prison. A member of the New York Panther 21, an Army vet turned tenant organizer in Harlem, Kuwasi dedicated his life to fighting for justice and total liberation for his people.

Today's vote in Congress by 81 Democrats to target the trans kids of our military servicemembers should be a defining moment. Mainline LGBT+ organizations will face a moment of truth when they have to now put public pressure on Dems. People who say they've "had our backs" will have to show it.

Inbox: ‘Wanted’ posters of healthcare CEOs wheatpasted around lower Manhattan ahead of today’s Goldman Sachs Financial Services conference. “Those who would steal from us have names, faces, and addresses. Justice will only come from the working class,” per anon communique.

People think that all the attention being paid to Luigi means we’ve forgotten about Gaza. We haven’t.

Both political parties start and fuel culture wars to distract the masses away from the only one that counts: Class war.

The idea of “social murder” is super useful, and we need to get comfortable using it. Engels is the best, man - reading him feels like finally acknowledging the obvious reality everyone wants you to ignore

And today we fight over the last piece of sweet potato pie.

sometimes your art is literally fine, you’ve just been staring at it for too long

Former Amazon worker here; do not cross this picket line. Don't do it. Don't even order from them (unless absolutely necessary). They're a disgusting company to work for and the reason for my knee problems that required years of physical therapy. Fuck Amazon. We stand with the workers! 👊🏻✨

Overhearing my family talk about world politics is like overhearing kids talk about what they think sex is.

I want to make a personal appeal for the beautiful new game of Palestinian gamedev @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social. As nobody will fund a game about the 1948 Nakba, Rasheed is crowdfunding via launchgood.com/1948. I've been doing production advice on the game pro bono, and it deserves to exist.

Chitlins, thawing.

The ruling class knows their survival depends on indoctrinating the next generation, which is why they're forcing archaic religious texts like the Bible into classrooms to suppress any critical thought and reinforce obedience.

ROTFLMAO

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever. #books #reading #booksky #poetry

Strikingly, the only group that responded en mass and IMMEDIATELY to the neo-Nazi march this weekend in Columbus was a group of black men. Everyone else? Oh, they put out statements. Black men linked arms and marched the NEXT day. And this is why I say “Godspeed” to everyone who ain’t us.

Parable of the Sower begins in 2024. I remember being so frightened when I read it in 1995. Horror had nothing on Lauren's nightmarish world. Called someone I was talkin to at the time. "It's just a story!" And in 1995 when we were almost-but-not-quite 18, yes, it was just a story. 29 years later.

Octavia Butler being a time traveler or seer, will forever be a hill I'm willing to die on, because there's just no way. Parable of The Sower was published in 1993. Look at this date. #BlackBookSky #BookSky

Dueling is gonna come back in a big way. Cults, multilevel marketing schemes and dueling. Possibly witch trials. Those are my 2025 predictions.

I should probably start pre-loading now. #Stalker2

South of Midnight: Meet The Performers #BlackSky youtu.be/ts2dbHLiIsw?...

I’m gonna be so pissed if I have to start collecting rainwater and canning vegetables all because enough white people decided that Hitler’s mustache was actually kinda cute.

Netanyahu, Biden, Blinken, Austin, Sullivan, Kirby, Singh, Miller, Patel, Hagari… there’s so much death in their faces. I can’t even hear them over the vengeful wails of their victims, can’t even see them over the bones piled high around them—these butchers, these life-thieves.
