AAAANNNND I just heard a bomber out of Whiteman overhead. 👍🍊🤡

So is this actually happening today?

HEY NYC TRANS PEOPLE: Brooklyn Brewery is taking the $25k it would have spent on Pride ads and giving $1k each to 25 NYC trans folk. You can nominate yourself here: brooklynbrewery.com/brooklynbrew...

MacArthur Park, Los Angeles, 6/18 around 9:30am — Unidentified masked terrorists kidnapped an elderly homeless man off the street and bundled him into a private car with no license plate.

"This again?" the dragon said. "It's been just a few centuries since the last time.' "Please," the knight said. "I asked you to make sure you had a way of getting rid of bad kings yourself, before you made any new ones." "We didn't understand we made a king." "You are such fools. Very well."

Every time you see the word "unprofessional" ask yourself if the person is advocating for kindness and community? Or capitalism and dehumanization. The people who want to ensure people are controlled are coming after critical thought the hardest. Please do not be a chatbot.

Shout out to the dozens of old women who manage to hold together all historically progressive social movements in this state

LAT here echoes what LAPD deputy chief said on KNX: Police claim some protesters threw rocks. Let's see it. LAPD has THOUSANDS of bodcams out there. Downtown is blanketed in security cameras. Show. Us. The. Video. Then let's compare it to the use of force in response. Receipts must be checked. đź§ľ

Watching this, I have to wonder how many of those soldiers resisted the best they could by being as off-rhythm as possible?

Do you know how many people aren’t protesting today because you’ve disabled or killed them with covid? Real uncomfortable question, I know. What would you do if you knew your personal number (of people you’ve disabled or worse)? Would it matter?

Authoritarians want you to feel isolated and alone, to feel like their vision of the world is the only one. That’s why taking part in public protests matters. You connect with other people like you and you show those numbers off to the world. It’s a great feeling. Try it!

No protest because PTSD, but I hilled up four bags of potatoes, watered the entire garden, including with compost tea, planted 2 bags of sweet potato slips (with one to go but the slips aren't ready yet), and started a massive weeding. This evening: mowing, weed eating, more weeding.

it is really weird that publishing decided that instead of having a marketing budget, writers should just become cult leaders

If you are arrested today protesting the Trump administration in Illinois, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected].

We’re not becoming Nazi Germany, we are. We’re sending people to camps & our leader is a charismatic white supremacist dictator with no political opposition & there are abductions & he beats up Congresspeople. And millions of people are incarcerated. Cops kill daily, the marginalized are persecuted.

Two things about this: 1. Miller is a very dangerous person 2. Miller is nowhere near California and is just making shit up, and sharing images/footage of actual people doing normal stuff is going to be important to break through this nonsense

EXCLUSIVE: CA National Guard troops sent by Trump to LA amid immigration protests are sleeping on concrete floors. No fed funding for food, water, fuel, equipment or lodging. Source: “Currently, there is no plan for where everyone is sleeping tonight” www.sfchronicle.com/california/a...

I spend a little time every day finding people to be kind to on the internet. Being an asshole comes naturally, so I don't have to work on it.

So far today I've done a quick cleanup of my vegetable garden, done 2 1/2 loads of laundry, changed my bedding, called both senators, and finished about a half dozen progress notes. Now my back is aching, so finish notes before planting yams, sifting cat pan, and finishing my handmade tablet cover.

“Bluesky is an echo chamber” X is currently overrun with users sexually harassing random women using the site owner’s built-in AI to edit their photos to look like there’s semen on their faces

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

A performance to show the hardcore MAGA people that their enemies are being punished, and that they will be spared (until their hospitals close, prices spiral, etc., and then it will be blamed on their enemies).

Every study done in the last 50 years tells us this is stupid. And yet, thanks to punishment mentality, here we are.

the garden so far, despite a tornado and 2 hail storms.

Dear Democrats in the Senate, Please get ready amendments ready for reconciliation bill that will at least: - defund Starlink - defund all maters related Space X - defund DOGE (calling it a Deep State) And that's just the start. There can be lot lot more. Thanks.

We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose. “They took my baby pictures and my moms obituaries,” a 29-year-old in California wrote.

It is absolutely horrific that the Trump administration is collectively punishing a family for one individual's actions. Our community's grief must not be weaponized to further the administration's fascist deportation agenda.

read this thread. NYT has been a driver of the outrage over health care for transgender youth.

New data from North Carolina indicates that a whopping 87% of new vouchers in 24-25 went to kids who had never been in public school simbli.eboardsolutions.com/Meetings/Att... (cc: @jenjennings.bsky.social @sosarizona.org @jeffbinnc.bsky.social @pfpsorg.bsky.social)

As a resident of Missouri for the last 30 years, THIS is how the GOP loses its hold. Missouri used to be a bellwether state, and if they keep screwing over the rural folk, it will be again.

It is intimidation. It is calculated to scare you. “We are merciless, we will ignore the law on the books in the service of what we think is justice, fear us.” Can anyone think of another group who did that, historically? Yeah. And I suspect they can, too.

This pride month: Don’t🚫: buy pride merch from big stores that don’t really care about our rights and just want our money Do✅: buy pride merch from other queer artists!! Support small businesses!! Contribute locally :D

Good trouble opportunity.

When deciding who to call to sway 4 GOP Senators to the cause of protecting Medicaid, concentrate your efforts on GOP Senators from Missouri, Oklahoma, and South Dakota. All three have Medicaid expansion enshrined in their constitutions.

“Why do you share so many mutual aid posts” because all the safety nets failed me and without the kindness of strangers online I wouldn’t be here anymore
