Remember that this is where his discussions with El Salvador began. The migrant detentions there are the dry run. He wants to ship U.S. prisoners to El Salvador.We cannot sleepwalk through this.

one of the most important things to learn, if you're out there doing things: you don't get to talk about it. you don't get to brag about it, you don't get to tell your friends, you don't get drinks bought for you in the bar off the story. it's *always* shut the fuck up friday

As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

If they truly believed they were saving America they'd be celebrating in the streets, not canceling town halls and hiding from their constituents.

One pernicious step after another, Bezos encroached on the Post editorial policy. Today he seized it fully. The old Washington Post is gone. I'll never write for it again as long as he's the owner.

I was recently leaked a document that was written by and for think tank and DNC affiliated policy wonks and circulated in private chats. It describes in unsparing terms the threat Curtis Yarvin, Neoreactionary tech founders, and Elon Musk pose to democracy. shatterzone.substack.com/p/democratic...

I now use mom life as a catchphrase much as I used yolo when I was younger. But now I’m wiping mud with my hands instead of surfing on cars. Life is strange.

It's so weird to just like be living your life while a coup is going on idk I'm supposed to be BREAK THE REGIME OF NORMALCY posting or something but it's just............... Terrible shit idk Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

“The 5 bullets email was the administration’s declaration of psychological warfare: Petty on its face and lacking sufficient instructions, its one and only purpose was to scare the shit out of workers already living in peril.”

My ear crystals are out of place. It feels like being on a tilt a whirl and unable to get off. This seems appropriate given the state of things.

DOGE isn't saving us money. DOGE is forcing us to DIY society--to manage all the costs, risks, and problems that government is best poised to solve.

I asked for bread and roses. Got a circus and poisoned cake. One star.

"This may be the most significant lesson of the UnitedHealthcare assassination. The cloud isn’t real. Νor is corporate messaging. Human beings & the things we create are what’s real, & the source of true change comes from flesh and bone, breath&spirit" beiner.substack.com/p/best-serve...

I got shingles last week. I’m 30 and not otherwise sick. ER doc said it’s probably stress. Thanks trump

I’ve decided to blame every stress related health issue on trump personally. I know that’s not fair & I have personal responsibility for my health. But the man wouldn’t know personal responsibility if it put on a low cut dress, got a guest spot on Fox News and addressed him directly. So fuck it.

Come closer now and rest your trunk against mine. Push your roots beneath the soil to find mine searching in return. Twine our grasping branches together supporting tender buds. May they find us long, long from now still reaching for the light.

Community education is inherently political because it is a liberatory activity. Understanding the world is inseverable from building the power needed to change it. mailchi.mp/e56c5bfbc...

You know what’s hot? People standing together, unions, solidarity. That shit it so hot.

In the future will they say that we were hallucinating while the machines were perfecting knowledge?

I’m all about touching grass. But touching books has always been a quiet refuge.

Getting acutely anxious about the state of information preservation and integrity. Gonna go visit the library tomorrow.

On the topic of naming. When naming a cat: three names is best, two is the minimum. We got a one-name cat in this house and she’s too much cat! I mean she’s the best cat. But you get a lot of cat if you try and tie them to just one name. Be prepared.

Every year they tell me don’t name the bird… I think this one we shall call Giblets McGee.

The climate crisis has to be addressed at the national and international level, but consumer choice plays a role. One thing we can do is switch from almonds (R in photo) to pecans (L). Both are similar in nutrition, but it is water use and geography that makes a difference. 1/4

This week's substack post is free and is about how I cope with fear as a trans woman living in a red state. It opens with the anarchist's prayer: "I ask not to be safe from my enemies, but dangerous to them." margaretkilljoy.substack.com/p/we-are-the...

I was raised to be a radical. At least in the sense that my momma has sense, compassion, a loud voice and a streak of stubbornness wider than the stretch of prairie between Denver and Wichita.

What radicalized you? Comrade, I was told "Sharing is caring" as a child.

There is a tumultuous time ahead of us. We have two months to prepare. You can access a wide range of resources about security culture, digital security, phone safety, protective gear, direct action strategy, street tactics, jail support, and first aid here: crimethinc.com/ActionResources

the most important survival strategy we can adopt in this new world is to pick one guy to blame for everything going wrong and really just tear his life apart. this brings me back to the subject of Jared Leto,

Just at least try to never make things worse

I have no issues with raising a goblin. Goblins are cool af.

Even if we have accurate history books in 10+ years… Look y’all the kids ain’t gonna believe us. This shit is and has been Nuts.

What do to with this existential dread that keeps piling up under me?

I can’t post cause I can’t spell.

Wake up mama and feed your baby. The worlds gone crazy. But we’re growing something here.

Nothing to see here. Don’t follow me I’m stuck in a loop.
