I've said plenty about Booker in the past, but I'm in on this. For those people saying "this is performative bullshit" yes welcome to politics. But considering most of our leaders are capitulating, I'll take this kind of performance any day of the week

Time to get in the game. The Kickstarter campaign for Come Out and Play: The Queer Sports Project is live! This full-color #comics #anthology about #LGBTQ+ people and their love of #sports features the work of over two dozen comics creators! Back it today here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/sta...

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov If Schumer votes for cloture and you do not immediately call for his resignation for betraying the ideals of the Democratic Party, I will not ever vote for either of you again, and will use every avenue in my power to make sure you are not re-elected.

BREAKING: Hundreds of Jews and allies have taken over Trump Tower chanting “We want justice, you say how. Bring Mahmoud home now!” and “Fight Nazis, not students.” The civil disobedience is spawned by the ICE arrest of Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil.

Hey everyone, I don’t point to kickstarters often but I’ve been asked to help raise interest in this one and I think it looks pretty cool. I got a sneak peak at three of the comics and they are REALLY powerful stories. (They’re @queersportsproject.bsky.social on this here interorb site)

These are brown shirts, and this is Nazi behavior. We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

This is incredible reporting and an important read. WIRED has been absolutely running circles around NYT and WaPo. I bought a subscription. They're going to need our support when Musk and Thiel try to sue them out of existence Gawker-style.

What do yall think is fading faster, the Golden state warriors dynasty, or the US empire?

We are proud to announce support for #LA #MutualAid groups serving the 180,000 people displaced by the #LAFires! Over the past week we have organized a regular aid route that will deliver one full truck each week to sustain the local response. Help us keep it running: distributeaid.org/la-fires

One thing Newsom should do *right now* is a statewide rent freeze. They did it during lockdown, they can do it again. And yes, statewide, because every landlord within 200 miles of LA is eagerly waiting for fire refugees to move into their area.

Re: LAFD Budget Seeing City officials in the press ignore the severe impacts of these budget cuts, especially the ones covering for their poor budget decisions to cut a majority of departments' budgets & even AFTER Chief Crowley told them about the impacts these cuts have had, is DISGRACEFUL.

LA is facing a serious budget crisis and it is all caused by our elected officials defunding city programs & giving all of our money to LAPD. This is well documented. @lacontroller.bsky.social has been warning about this. STOP SHARING THAT POLITICO PIECE!

LAPD standing around in high-vis vests trying to look busy for $2.1 billion a year

“The consistent defunding of other city programs to give the LAPD billions a year has consequences," said @riccisergienko.bsky.social of @pplscitycouncil.bsky.social. "The city is unprepared to handle this fire, and Los Angeles shouldn’t be in that position." theintercept.com/2025/01/08/l...

Chris Hayes is running PR for the LA mayors office! His reporting can not be trusted

This is the definition of elitism. You the public don’t decide what the public interest is, we do

Inbox: A group of artists redecorated Christmas trees at Madison Square Park & Central Park to remind people that “there can be NO CHRISTMAS AS USUAL while Palestinians are undergoing genocide by Israel and the US.”

A statement from The Onion about InfoWars.

Mind boggling that a murder in midtown Manhattan - probably the most heavily surveilled public place in the country other than DC - can’t be solved by a police department with a $5.6 billion budget
