It's peak cherry harvest time in CAs central valley. This worker earns $6.50 per 23lb bucket of cherries. On a good day she can pick 20-24 buckets in 7 hrs-if she works as fast as she can. Peak season doesn't last long so she rushes to earn every penny. Her family relies on her. #WeFeedYou

Missed last night's pre-mobilization prep call with Indivisible national? All resources mentioned or offered on the call, including recording, slides, and key links, are now available here: www.nokings.org/call See you out there tomorrow. Let's make this a peaceful and powerful day!

It's time. Please just take an hour from your day and go to your nearest protest. Show the world that you don't approve what's happening. No sign? Don't worry, there will be extras. Just bring yourself (and some friends!) Europe is on now, east coast is up next! #NoKings #protest

Calling something a “preemptive strike” doesn’t magically make it not an act of war.

Environics' polling on Canadian pride remains fascinating because of both the long time series and the details on how it breaks down across region, age and party preference. www.environicsinstitute.org/docs/default...

In #Montreal, transit underfunding and privatization pushes workers to strike, impacting millions of users—Both sides of the negotiating table blame #Quebec for its refusal to adequately fund the essential service. New from Miriam Lafontaine: ricochet.media/labour/in-mo... #qcpoli #publictransit

Deploying the #military on US soil against Americans was on page 555 of #Project2025. This was always their plan & people voted for it anyway. #FascistAmeriKKKa FAILED AN OPEN BOOK TEST. YES YOU DID VOTE FOR THIS #MAGAcunts #politics #Tyranny #PosseComitatus #ReligiousTaliban #WhiteNationalism

The L.A. protesters have really gone too far this time… 🌼

We have lost all respect around the world 🌎 😪

They shoved, pinned, and handcuffed @SenAlexPadilla—for asking a question to protect his community. A sitting U.S. Senator. This isn’t public safety—it’s raw abuse of power and unacceptable.

You so on point. Great choice

The plunder of our seas by industrial fishing is a monstrosity in which almost everyone unwittingly collaborates. For decades this truth has been deliberately hidden from us. Now at last the consensus is cracking. This week's column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

UK made components bombing Palestine and Iran. UK military training for the country wrecking the Middle East UK intelligence given to the country slaughtering children.

The gutless won't share

The orange turds regime is lying to you. Right-wing media is lying to you. Mainstream media is not reporting the reality. LA is NOT burning. There was more fire after the Eagles won the Super Bowl.

Ce matin, les cyclistes étaient plus nombreux que les automobilistes à bien des intersections sur le REV St-Denis. La piste cyclable occupe pourtant le quart de l'espace de la voie publique. Que l'on ne vienne pas dire que le vélo n'est pas un moyen efficace de déplacer des personnes.

BREAKING: Senator Padilla after being thrown to ground and cuffed: “If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question, if this is how the department of homeland security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers..."

Included: A thoughtful supportive message from a LAFD Firefighter…

Facebook banned @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social for this essay, "Some Notes on the City of Angels and the Nature of Violence." So, make sure to read it and share it! "The Trump Administration is a huge surge of almost every kind of violence." www.meditationsinanemergency.com/some-notes-o...

We told you. They lied. The truth about #DOGE bubbles up. These billionaire oligarchs are using you to build a feudal dystopia. It's bigger than #Musk or #Trump. There's infighting, but also coordinated action where their interests align. And those interests conflict with yours. Think. Act.

Jimmy Kimmel has more courage than the entire ABC News C-Suite full of executives put together... times one hundred! Kimmel correctly described the sending of troops to Los Angeles as a "disgusting and unnecessary abuse of power instigated by our mentally ill president"
