the rage I felt reading this as the parent of a disabled 14yo

Please, please archive your work. Please. I’ve recently been saving lots of my essays as pdfs just so the Internet doesn’t suddenly delete them all (this happened to a whole load of blogs I wrote for The Independent years ago). I don’t want you to wake up and suddenly find your work gone like I did.

It’s so sick and disgusting how the fascists try to frame an innocent trans person every time there’s a horrible (usually fascist-caused) tragedy. I actually saw the phrase “trans terror” today and the fact that that actually means something to so many people now—or they think it does—is appalling.

@socialismforall.bsky.social looks like ‘our’ ACP folks are struggling to stay afloat… x.com/profdannysha...

this confirms something i have long suspected, which is that certain people are told that their professional and academic failures are because of “affirmative action” or “DEI” as a way to avoid difficult conversations about their mediocrity www.wsj.com/lifestyle/ca...

Well you can’t say he didn’t have a point

It isn’t lack of water or DEI making LA’s wildfires worse. Experts say it’s climate change www.sacbee.com/news/politic...

I don't know how to get across to people that you cannot stop these fires once they get going with 80+ mph winds behind them. it can't be done. this is not solvable.

In case you're curious, this is the internal Meta "fuck DEI" announcement received by Meta employees

the culprits for both the Vegas and New Orleans attacks were GWOT-era veterans. this is a trend that will continue. we have millions of vets from a quarter century of careless war, a media ecosystem designed to break people's brains and an ever-rising cost-of-living. buckle up

34,000 criminal acts in Germany have a far-right motive now. This is up 17% from the previous figure from 2023.

This should be really concerning to normal human beings. 90% mortality of pregnant unvaccinated women and about the same for fetuses.

Liberals will say sarcastically, "How's the revolution going?" but which is more likely to happen in the USA 🇺🇸: #MedicareForAll or armed conflict? ⚕️ Guaranteed housing or armed conflict? 🏡 Repealing Taft-Hartley or armed conflict? 👩‍🏭 If you said "armed conflict" to any of these, we already agree.

www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... @socialismforall.bsky.social H5N1 episode soon?

I think we’ve only seen the tippiest top of the iceberg in terms of the effects of this assassination.

to liberal followers: put down the social media and pick up some books on social investigation, class analysis, and settler colonialism (“araling activista,” or like anything by gerald horne), and GET TO WORK.

For history’s sake it’s important to remember this didn’t come out of nowhere. It’s been 13 years since Occupy Wall Street and class disparity and affordable care has gotten much worse, while a president, about to have a 2nd term, is only interested in helping the wealthy. People are in pain.

*spends billions of dollars propagandizing people into believing reactionary bullshit* Sorry man, that just isn’t popular with most people.

CNN: “There is a real sense of nervousness and even fear in C-suites across the country.”

Why didn't they just put the photos inside a glass case that only the manager can open

@socialismforall.bsky.social *please* consider doing a response to this article. it is DOGSHIT. fightbacknews.org/articles/mar...

not saying anything groundbreaking here, but I really think "politics as a form of content to be served up and consumed like all other forms of content" has been an enormous, underrated disaster in terms of giving folks the illusion of being informed while essentially being gamed like a drug addict

Netanyahu acted as if his preferred candidate was already in the White House. https://interc.pt/48CaIER

“Only 6% of Israelis think the war in Gaza should be stopped due to the ‘the great cost in human life.’” Uh kind of hoped that percentage would be a bit higher than 6% 😶

something i’ve noticed is how loudly and roundly this plainly ridiculous line of “elect who you want to organise under” (pic 1) has been rejected by people actually involved in activism and organising (pic 2). it makes me wonder from where exactly that ridiculous line actually came from (pic 3)
