Visiting friends in New York

It’s not a coincidence that Mahmoud Khalil was kidnapped by ICE right after Trump took $400 million away from Columbia University for not punishing protestors hard enough. Columbia isn’t just silent, they’re complicit. They want that money back.

House staff trying to raise the flags to full staff for the inauguration are struggling. The cords are frozen.

Never forget that one of the main drivers behind the TikTok ban was elected officials wanting to silence people speaking up about Palestine.

DC hotels still have capacity. Top restaurants are still taking reservations. Popular bars aren’t extending their hours. Yeah… starting to think cold wasn’t the reason why they moved the inauguration inside lol

Children being raised by millennials is my new favorite thing bc why my 4 yo niece ask her mommy for the snap song and she meant lil Jon’s snap ya fingers

“Oppressive power is preserved in the smoke and fog, and sometimes it is smuggled in the unexamined shadows of the language of the oppressive themselves.” Ta-Nehisi Coates, p. 91, The Message

Rewatching home alone (seasonal af) and a tiny detail I just noticed that elicited a huge guffaw was harry (of harry and marv, the wet bandits) wore a wedding band. There was a MRS. Wet bandit lmao

Remember the reason for the season… Jesus was Palestinian

I miss modells sporting goods

A Drexel epedimiologist lists ways to make our street safer. What’s number 1? Protected bike lanes with physical barriers!

It's been another rough week for pedestrians and cyclists in Philly. Two cyclists hit, one critically injured and another (Dominique Jones) dead. Two pedestrians struck while on the sidewalk in CC, both seriously injured. One lost their leg.

Remember that libraries are proof that not every goddamned thing needs to be “for profit.”

Yesterday, 28-year-old Dominique Jones was killed while riding his bicycle by a motorist at 25th & Diamond in Strawberry Mansion. Traffic violence is real violence, and our city can do more to prevent these deaths.

“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.” James Baldwin

This is why reading is important. 50% of USians read so poorly that they are unable to perform simple tasks such as reading prescription drug labels. At least 45 million are functionally illiterate; 130 million more can't finish a children's book. thenationalliteracyinstitute.com/post/literac...

Billionaire grifters are about to dismantle your government. So instead of your tax dollars going to your Medicare or your Medicaid or your affordable care act or to veterans benefits or your social security - it will go to THEM in the form of tax cuts for the wealthy.

You don’t have to accept a Trump presidency nor recognize the legitimacy of a government if it is actively attempting to harm you, democracy is a tool for governance but if that tool is broken by corruption or used to do you harm, you’ll need to stand up for yourself and not just take it quietly.

"Fuck your feelings" but also please come to thanksgiving, we miss you and our vote had nothing to do with you, honey.

You should probably get used to hearing this word a lot over the next few years.

Eat your partner’s ass, not your boss’

Decided to post some bangers from the bad place before it all goes up in flames

Libraries are precious and beautiful and must be defended

the average American reads at a 5th grade level and unintentionally eats a credit card’s worth of plastic in a week, what did we think would happen

The recipe for a good social media app isn't hard if you understand that people simply yearn to read and write sentences without angry guys yelling slurs at them
