I’m in heaven 🫦😩💦

And then Trump’s tweet praising him afterwards LMAO

For legal reasons, this is a joke and I don’t condone destruction of property 🥰✨

This International Women’s Day, remember that women are disproportionately impacted by many chronic illnesses. We’re more likely to be abandoned by our spouse/partner when we become disabled, and mistreated/gaslit by the medical profession Women’s rights & disability rights are uniquely intertwined

It’s an insult to American intelligence.

80% looking snappy!

It’s a shame that even when a Palestinian filmmaker wins an Oscar for the first time for telling their story, all anyone can focus on is the Israeli. Talk about Massafer Yatta. Talk about settler violence. Talk about the West Bank and Jenin! So many more important things than Yuval’s reputation.

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

The Revolution will be AI-icized

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Felt beefy today ✨

I see a lot of people saying now is the time to get out of the U.S. if you can. Please remember most disabled people can’t leave. It’s incredibly difficult to immigrate to another country when you have documented medical issues. Many are also too sick to endure a move. We must fight for them.

Better every day! 76kg (167 lb) snatch!!!

So much poeticism in this win. Go Eagles!!! 🦅

that’s right.

The only minority destroying the country are the billionaires.

What if history just didn't repeat itself, for once?

PR’d my clean!!!

Don't forget to include disabled people in your resistance. The more revolutionary you become, the more likely you'll join the disability community. To fight back and get out alive is almost always to become disabled in some way. Disabled people know how to adapt and fight continuously. You need us.

This is probably not a surprise to people in the disability community, and I apologize for my ignorance about it, but I have been genuinely surprised how much immediate government wrath is going towards people in the disability community

Lol at everyone who was worried about data security, cuz now we have an unelected person from a foreign nation who has access to our social security information AND has the power to get rid of federal agencies. 🫠🫠🫠

Incredible to see a president tanking the world’s economy simply because he doesn’t understand it and is too dedicated to belligerent posturing to learn

73 and 75kg snatch complex! Snatch (pause at knee and receiving) + OHS with pause

A bs EO does not change this. #BLM #blacklivesmatter

if you are a liberal, it is time to radicalize. it is time to accept the truth: this system is death. even if it works for you, it works at the expense of other people. it does not have to be this way. we can make it work for everyone. that means you must leave the system behind for your fellow man

Deconstructing my politics to see through the bs is such a painful experience. Learning just how deep the corruption goes, and how we are responsible for the oppression of other countries…my heart breaks. We’ve been so propagandized. We are not free until all of us are free.

Being up in arms about TikTok being banned but absolutely silent as Musk coups the US government is just….so American? We’ve been so thoroughly poisoned by the bread and circuses.

The biggest propaganda we were taught as children is that we needed to compete with each other to have a place in this world, and that anything Left of capitalism is bad. And our plutocracy will do anything to uphold that myth. Instead of working together, we are just guarding our slice of the pie.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

There's such a tone of sadness to the CBC reporting right now. Adrienne Arsenault says, “I feel like the whole country, all of us, are getting both a history lesson and a politics lesson and an economics lesson and a lesson in heartache.”

“None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.” -Goethe

Sex is great, but have you ever lived in a country with a government that respects human rights and doesn’t exploit the working class? Me neither. 🙃

I'm feeling very hopeless today. There is evil. There is stupidity. And what is supposed to be an opposition party is complacent and owned by the same people who own the evil. Accordingly, it's existence, like evil, also depends on stupidity. The informed left is tiny.

I really worry about the level of social (not economic) instability we're about to observe. The institutions have failed. When institutions fail, you get contentious politics -- and the magnitude of institutional failure suggests extraordinary contention.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: If disabled people aren't included in your revolution, it's not a true revolution.

We literally live on a floating rock where psychedelic mushrooms grow from the earth. How the fuck did we end up with credit scores?

i'm tired of being told to stop doomscrolling. i'm just scrolling, it's not my fault there's doom on there

I think the hardest part of this political hellscape is deconstructing my previous views. Holding our politicians accountable and identifying corruption, regardless of the party, has been heartbreaking. Is anybody in DC going to speak up?

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

What has been done in the dark will be brought to light.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall. They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+. Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them. I think about it a lot in moments like this.

There are plenty of ways to criticize the left in recent years. Many. But one thing they have right that liberals are now just figuring out is that Democratic Party leadership is completely worthless in dealing with the contemporary crisis of the rise of the right.
