Dealing with chronic illness is like: It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. Fuck this. Fuck that. Fuck you. Fuck my life. *goes apeshit* It's fine.

When they think no one is looking. *Cops damaging their own cars?

ICE causing fires from their own tear gas and flash grenades, don’t get it twisted. They’re the ones causing damages to cities.

A rule of thumb that will rarely lead you astray in this country is to assume that a riot was started by the people who showed up armed and dressed for a riot.

Imagine, just imagine, the response from the West if the Iranian government, in international waters, had rammed and then boarded a European ship, filled with European citizens, and taken them captive. But it's Israel, so it's all good. Our citizens don't matter.

The suffering of First Nations from wildfires is ongoing and still hardly anyone outside of Indian Country gives a shit. Where is that community coming together that happened across the US and Canada for the LA fires?

For those who live elsewhere, this is the heart of downtown #LosAngeles. My friends are here. My union is here (sup @wgawest.bsky.social). My teenager is here. People are passing out pastries & singing & praying. All we want is for our neighbors not to be kidnapped off the streets.

Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism. https://www.commondreams.org/news/david-huerta-arrested

Sending the National Guard to Kent State in 1970 was, famously, the savvy solution that turned American sentiment in favor of the Vietnam War, and made Richard Nixon the beloved president that he remains today.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)

SWAT shoot at a woman for filming them.

Let’s be clear: Israel, an occupier, has no authority under international law to board or divert the Madleen. This is a hijacking, plain and simple. A hijacking of a UK-registered ship, with multiple *European* citizens on board. Does the EU or UK government have anything to say? Anything??

"Tanner, a chemist at the Univ. of Mississippi working to develop a novel approach for treating glioblastoma, was notified in April that the grant was terminated. “I would like to cure brain cancer,” Dr. Tanner said. “I think that's not particularly controversial.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

ATTN: If you’re a member of the National Guard or you work for ICE and you’re asked to violate the law or your oath, contact Whistleblower Aid to safely, securely, and legally blow the whistle. You can support Whistleblower Aid HERE: whistlebloweraid.org/beans

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

Good morning rebels...

The beautiful Breonna Taylor should have celebrated her 32nd birthday today. Never forget her. ❤️🕊️

Phrase of the day: you cannot comply your way out of tyranny.

San Antonio police backtrack on stating there was no evidence to support hate crime charges for Jonathan Joss murder. “We shouldn’t have done it. I will own that.”

If you think saying we worked with Stalin to defeat Hitler is good justification for welcoming Elon into the Democratic Party then you were asleep or not born for the Cold War that lasted from 1945 until 1991 including multiple hot wars. Stop simping for people who are rotten but also hate Trump.

Bluesky right now:

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

The heartbreaking statement from Jonathan Joss’s husband about his death.

Apparently states’ rights stop the moment women board a plane with autonomy in their carry-on.

This was today… Sotally tober… NYT clearly way off base…

It’s genocide and it’s indefensible

Today more than 300 people in Gaza were killed by Israeli strikes

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare (But get your mom flowers, too)

“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”

The people constantly braying about “Christian values” are attacking the Pope for suggesting that we love others.

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.
