I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

So. How are we organizing? Is it DSA? Is it smaller local bunches? Have no idea how to start but am tired of feeling hopeless

just in: a federal judge finds patriot front liable for $2.75mil in damages for a july 2022 assault on a black man in boston storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A group of former Twitter users who are fed up by the platform’s decline under billionaire control, are launching a new campaign to transform social media into a public good, free from profit-driven incentives, venture capital pressure, and politically-motivated censorship.

The @nytimes.com should hire whoever wrote this headline. Seriously!

I’m an Onion features contributor now! I’m an onion lady! Wake the fuck up, it’s onion time!!

They have barely regulated shit in the last few decades, having less competition in America directly increases other countries' ability to compete. The reason everything sucks is because there are like four or five monopolies and the only competition is for the chance to steal another monopoly

70% of the world’s population has universal healthcare, but not the US We are the only highly developed nation without it Our healthcare is twice as expensive as the average wealthy nation US ranks last among industrial nations for deaths that could be prevented with timely access to healthcare

this urge to launder rfk jr. as “just a guy who is right about a few things” is such a perfect example of how liberals are people who won’t take their own side in a fight

State supreme courts have come under a brighter spotlight as battlefields for some of today’s most pressing issues, from abortion rights and climate to extreme sentencing and ballot access. Our state-by-state guide lays out each court's exact procedures: boltsmag.org/whats-o...

2025 we doing the revolution yet or what

As were dreams to a child, akin the astrology to a single thirty something. Recall waking up the morning after a dream and being like "whelp, dreamt about spiders again last night. Guess I'm crying whenever someone tries to pick me up today".

Wrote about Kyrsten Sinema, whose exit interview could best be summed up with this:

Pentagon press secretary says " I learned today that, in fact, there are approximately 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria" — contrary to their previous claims of only 900. How does the military not know where its own troops are deployed??

mobilizing against Trump with the "kids in cages" slogan, then doing this, is probably why no one believes in Democrats.... it's not just a messaging problem, it's a values problem

Proposal to Bluesky mods: let us tell people to kill themselves. Please. We need this

“Even if a forced sale happens and a TikTok ban is avoided, this law gives the executive branch a remarkable, unilateral, and unprecedented power to harass US companies so long as they are owned by a small number of investors from ‘foreign adversary’ countries.”

Remembering that there was a "last time" that you went to bed as a kid dreaming of potential fantastical futures. There-only to wake and dream exclusively of regrets past.

The New York Times provides UnitedHealth CEO a platform to convey such newsworthy insight as “[we] work each day to provide critical health services for millions of Americans in need” and totally real stories like how the late CEO “would always ask, ‘Would you want this for your own family?’”

From trying to paint "Among Us" in a sinister light to media outlets either refusing to publish or misrepresenting the contents of Luigi Mangione's note, there a lot of bad reporting on a straightforward case. @mannyfidel.bsky.social joins me to discuss: www.insurgentspod.com/p/ep-336-the...

Guess we can call off the manhunt for the CEO assassin, vigilante killing is legal in NYC

The phrase “I was scammed by a meme coin” seems to contain within it the wisdom the complaint is seeking

Good morning to everyone except the dudes that told me jayden reed was a good play 😭

Early days, but another exciting application of vaccine technology. And a tough one for antivaxx crowd. Vaccine shows promise against aggressive breast cancer medicine.washu.edu/news/vaccine....

The idea of “social murder” is super useful, and we need to get comfortable using it. Engels is the best, man - reading him feels like finally acknowledging the obvious reality everyone wants you to ignore

finally finished downloading my limewire wrapped after 20 years

A must-read: Patrick Chandler Brown — named after the PCB chemicals dumped in his community — purchased the plantation where his great-grandfather was enslaved and is in the process of transforming it to serve farmers like him

For my birthday i would have one livable planet please. It's a simple ask

I want to wish a particularly Happy Thanksgiving to those whose memories extend all the way back to pre-Election Day You can learn a lot about our new POTUS just by looking at, I dunno, everything he's ever done and remembering that he's a career criminal, rapist, con man, sexual predator and stuff

i’ll truly never get over how insane it was that there was almost a pedophile attorney general who was caught years ago sending money to children with statements like “being my friend”

Thankful for the working class and everybody who still gives a fuck about keeping this planet going. Stay safe, consolidate your power

how can they still be called pod save america when they’ve done the opposite of that

This is a real team effort, fellow patriots. 🇺🇸

Too many people haven’t touched a book since they graduated high school and it shows.

our ancestors accomplished more, with less, against worse. stay locked in.

In our experience, the most clueless individuals are also the most confidently arrogant, proudly turning their ignorance into mockery while remaining blissfully unaware of how wrong they actually are.

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.

Happy Monday to everyone fighting forward to preserve our democracy!

Growing up in the 90s- You remember staying up to watch a movie after dinner? You had a shelf dedicated to VHS tapes and would browse for something that'd suit emotion, curiosity, minutes before bedtime, and still be able to finish/enjoy the end? I miss that

A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned #onhere putting together a mini-series of workshops for people new to activism and organizing. Well I put in the work last week to pull it together. “How Do I Take Action Where I Am” is a series of 5 sessions in Dec and Jan.
