Fuck Target. I'm hyped to support this boycott.

A fake tweet by Donald Trump, in which he allegedly says a president should be immediately impeached if the Dow drops 1,000 points, is going viral in the context of Trump's tariffs and US stock markets plunging. Trump never posted this. It's fake.

Trans girls are girls, not boys

We knew Mike Duggan was an asshole, now we know he’s also a transphobic asshole.

@marc-fischer.bsky.social is offering 10 postcards for cheap - www.halfletterpress.com/say-no-to-us... - Mail these to all of your friends and family.

how long until people understand that our government works for Elon Musk now

remember when this guy covered up a brutal police killing? i do!

A constituent asks Senator Roger Marshall (R, Kansas) why DOGE is firing so many veterans and the man just runs away. I’ve seen some pathetic behavior in my life but this might get first prize.

Meeting David Johansen at one of Michael Dorf’s Carnegie bills was a highlight of my life. He was kind and gracious and hip as hell. Rest easy in the earth of a world you made better, you leave big shoes to fill.

The youth gender divide is real and important, but it can mask the fact that the populist right is gaining ground among young women as well as young men in many countries (this was also true in the US). AfD tripled their vote share among 18-24 year old men, but the same was true of young women.

This isn’t drugs. This is him assuming other people don’t work because he doesn’t do that much work. Very common bad boss behavior. bsky.app/profile/rcma...

Sad News 😢 Rick Buckler, drummer of The Jam, dies aged 69 after short illness. Rest in Peace Rick #thejam #rickbuckler #drummerlegend #riprickbuckler

Boycotts work. The NAACP advises consumers to avoid Lowe’s, Target, Walmart, Amazon, Meta, McDonald’s, & Tractor Supply until they reaffirm their commitments to fairness. The advisory praises Costco, Apple, Ben & Jerry’s, e.l.f. Cosmetics and JPMorgan Chase & Co for standing firm.

Co-sign this whole thread. The attack on federal workers is an attack on all of us and the very idea of public goods.

duggan fuck off challenge

Ask Biden/Harris whether they think they made the right call on not supporting the people of Gaza.

Hitting shuffle and posting

NYC Union Square

“A new analysis by independent automotive blog FuelArc suggests that fire fatalities are 17 times more likely in a Cybertruck than in the infamous Ford Pinto — the posterchild deadly cars if ever there was one.”

nazis and other white supremacist groups are the only demonstrators that police ever protect instead of beat the shit out of. really makes you think. that said, well done angry community members!
