We do not throw away perfectly good food in this house. We put it in Tupperware & wait for it to go bad & then we throw it away.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

A politician speaking at a Super Bowl parade should be illegal unless the mayor is also the quarterback of the team

What is a more powerful political statement? Issa Rae canceling a sold out show at the Kennedy Center or Kendrick Lamar getting 430 million streams of his Super Bowl performance? Our black excellence is valuable and ours to control. I liked both performances

I heard the Pope dissed the shit out of JD Vance. Fuck yeah. Get his ass, Francis.

The football vibes are fun but I definitely don’t have the patience to do this regularly. Everything goes by so slowly. I mean Cher does like three costume changes within a five minute period.

In a few of the comments under my post on Boycotting the Super Bowl, people have asked, "Would this really hurt them?" "Would it help us?" Yes! The Super Bowl is famously known for its high-profile commercials, with companies often spending millions on a 30-second slot because of the enormous 1/4

Developing critical thinking, patience, resilience, and discipline to dismantle an authoritarian regime is like training for a sport—only consistent effort and dedication yield results. Those without the rigor to advance with calm and discipline exhaust themselves and give up.

My latest. As journalists and writers, we have a duty to use language that is accurate and describes our current reality. I’m no longer going to talk about DEI/Anti-DEI. Let’s be clear. We are facing racial purges and re-segregation. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

📣 Transgender rights are human rights 📣 All people have the right to live free from discrimination.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

It goes without saying but if you see this post, spread it everywhere you can. Plan accordingly and setup your own times and spots among yourselves and announce it using the hashtags. Let’s do our best.

Go protest Trump this weekend, use hashtags: #3E #USprotest #endimpunity

When you control anger, it becomes a tool that fuels strength. When anger controls you, it brings destruction to yourself and others.

New It Could Happen Here ☕ Mia and Gare talk with Starbucks Workers United about their fight to secure gender affirming healthcare through unionizing and how you can too.  @miawong.bsky.social @hungrybowtie.bsky.social @sbworkersunited.bsky.social www.iheart.com/podcast/105-...

i'm not sure why exactly, but this photo has been popping up again a lot lately. perhaps it's trump's inauguration sparking a renewed conversation about his 'very fine people' comment about these nazis. coincidentally, today marks 2 years since the man in the center of this photo ended his life.

The inevitable keeps happening again and again. We don’t learn SHIT from history. www.latintimes.com/ice-says-sor...

Not enough people are asking “why” and it’s honestly how we ended up in all of this. Too much blind trust of the people we decided to hold up on pedestals. We didn’t pay enough attention and now we have to react

Boycott the Super Bowl

Stay strong. Remember they are trying to fatigue us. Hold your friends and community close, and loved ones closer. Resistances starts small

Please watch this. Alex is screaming what we’re all thinking right now

In this YouTube video I call Elon musk a Nazi for 12 minutes straight. Perfect to watch without headphones in the break room during lunch.

Roughly two million federal employees got emails today titled "Fork in the Road" which lays out the option to stay (with ominous undertones of "maybe we'll fire you anyways") or resign and be paid through September. This move would crush institutional knowledge and end programs permanently.

I’ve visited Auschwitz twice. Truly harrowing. My main feeling was disbelief. Not so much disbelief that I didn’t believe it, but that I could never understand why/how humans can do that to each other. There was probably disbelief at the time. As there is now. Benefit of the doubt can be misplaced.

We rise by helping each other.

Skip watching the Super Bowl 2/9 #SuperBowlStrike

sorry for getting ✨️political✨️ on the good vibes and video games app again, but the human brain is not designed to withstand another 207 weeks of this shit so pace yourself and try to channel that anger, despair, and hopelessness into something productive. make some kick ass art, we will need it

It would be a shame if you downloaded this image and started posting it in MMA and gymbro groups. Don’t post this in group chats with your buddies who “aren’t political”. If I see this printed out and wheat pasted across Austin TX I’ll be very upset.

Okay so like when are we all going to get off of social media and stop even acknowledging mainstream media and go back to communicating via pigeons? We won’t be able to trust a single source very shortly. And we owe it to the pigeons otherwise we domesticated them for nothing🥺

We need help. Real help. Not some bullshit platitudes, or walking on eggshells worried you’ll say the wrong thing. Actual support and community.

Inauguration Day.

Hi, I’m God. My son fed 5,000 people for free. I guess that makes him a socialist.

Elon Musk reportedly invested $277M in Trump’s 2024 campaign, becoming the largest donor. Post-election, Tesla shares surged 70%, increasing Musk’s wealth by $80B. This is kleptocracy, where wealth and political power intertwine at the expense of democracy and equity.
