NYC it’s time to elect a GOOD Mayor! Here’s who you should be voting for and why! My official endorsements inside! youtu.be/TJt8xtvmg2U?...

Imagine if a touch was all it took to get back a memory from a past life — you bump into someone at a grocery store and suddenly remember they were your best friend, 200 years ago. A truth or dare kiss sparks memories of a time when you promised to stay but left.

Helpful not just for New Yorkers, but also as a way to recognize that tapping into emotional narratives (that also happen to be true!) can be more persuasive than dry facts or position statements.

Breaking News: Brad Lander, the New York City comptroller who is running for mayor, was detained by ICE agents at an immigration court as he tried to escort a migrant out of the courthouse to prevent his arrest. nyti.ms/4jWkANE

When Trump finally dies there will be calls for civility and “respect for the office” from even his harshest critics and I’m telling you right now I plan on saying things so harsh they might knock the earth off its axis

Of that 16 million, estimates are that 50,000 humans a year will die if this murderous bill passes. 📞 Call your legislators (202)224-3121

Millennials. Born too late to own a home Born too early to be spry enough for the coming revolution

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:  -Sinking poll numbers -A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill -Harmful trade wars  -Unleashing the military on American soil -Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism We must remain on high alert.

"May I have your name?" the faerie said. "William," she said with a smile. "Ah ah!" The faerie gave a wicked laugh. "I have your name! Now no-one will call you by it!" "Thank you," she said. "To win it back, you must- what?" "I will find me a new one," she said, "one that suits me better."

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant. This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.

Holy shit. DHS just detained New York City Comptroller Brad Lander, a candidate for NYC mayor, as he was observing ICE arrests in court.

Suggest masking in groups and around strangers (you know if you need to with family or friends.) You don't want this, says a good friend who can barely swallow water. :(

i don't think police should shoot anyone but it is always wild to me that these white mass-murderers are taken into custody "without incident" while unarmed Black and brown folks get shot in the back with their hands in the air and get charged with "assault" for bleeding on the cops who beat them

As Senate Republicans rewrite the reconciliation bill that would gut Medicaid and SNAP, we’re making sure key GOP senators hear from their angry constituents. Help us disrupt Trump’s Tax Scam by calling voters in target states and connecting them with their senators: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

We've had four years of Mayor Cop! It's total madness that anyone believes New York City defunded the police.

Good morning✌️🍀

The Senate reconciliation bill retains the trans healthcare Medicaid/CHIP ban. Call your Senators, we still have a good shot at killing this provision. Hundreds of thousands of people rely on this care.

I don't know if anyone has written about this, but the thing where Google's engineers have designed this software program to spit out text that simulates contrition, grovelling apology feels like something close to admission that they've designed a program they KNOW is fraudulent +are covering it up

Israel attacking Iran and Iran attacking back has driven Israeli leaders underground and required US media to gingerly note the IDF maintains underground bases in “populated areas”. I wrote about this awkward fact and US media’s racist and cheesy “human shields” double standard.

A reality show star and a weekend Fox News host are now tasked with managing a full fledged war in the Middle East. The death of expertise and experience as things that matter will mean the deaths of thousands or even millions. What guardrails are even left at this point? Too few, if any.

We absolutely must not forget what this administration did to Senator Padilla, because it tells us what they are willing to do to us.

Fun fact to remember: the actual Luddites weren’t *ignorant*. They weren’t against all technology. They were skilled craftspeople - expert weavers - who recognized the machine looms as a lower-quality output than what they could make, and who rebelled against their replacement with soulless slop.

I try to do a Pride drawing for my birthday every year but I was too busy finishing MULTIPLE pieces for a charity pride zine that is coming VERY soon 😉😉😉- so you just get last year's again! (it's my favourite!) HAPPY MY BIRTHDAY EVERYONE! 🖤🏳️‍🌈

cops do not exist to protect the people, they exist to protect property and the dominance of capitalism

ICE is attempting to deport an Atlanta-based Spanish-language reporter from El Salvador who has been covering their immigration abductions. He has legal work authorization and a path to a green card. This is pretty obviously an assault on the free press. www.ajc.com/news/2025/06...

so a leftist went to a protest in an open carry state with his firearm unconcealed and "peacekeepers" decided to murder him, missed and murdered someone else, and now the cops are charging the guy open carrying in the open carry state with murder for almost being a murder victim. cool beans!

Now that we’ve seen the full Senate text, we can say for certain: either the House or the Senate version would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history. Each have the largest Medicaid and largest SNAP cuts ever. And each give huge tax cuts to the rich.

Abolish the carceral state. youtu.be/Pya-kt5M7uY?...

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

✨👏🏾STANDING OVATION👏🏾✨

An entire industry is saying “fictional employees who openly lie to you and cost fifty billion dollars a year to maintain are the future of the economy”

JUST IN: Federal judge deems Trump's National Institutes of Health grant cuts illegal reut.rs/4ldDNf4

Trump says mass deportations are urgent—but not if they mess with his donors’ pockets. ICE was told to back off farms & hotels 'cause it was bad for business. But LA and Chicago? Open season. Please be for real—this is the weaponization of government against cities that refuse to bow down to him.

We are all completely heartbroken by the death of Arthur Folasa Ah Loo, the peaceful protester who was killed at the Salt Lake City rally on Saturday night. If you can, please consider supporting his family while we hold them in our hearts.

Good morning all! Still no word from the movers. Still in need of help after they pulled their stunt. Soon, it will be done! Thank you for all you do! #movinghelp #moving gofund.me/8b3780e3

Powerful sign from a #NoKings protest in Washington state. Vaccines save lives!

Call your congresspeople. Much of these are popular recreation areas. This is a way to privatize the places that people hike and camp in. Once we lose these areas we never get them back.

My wife saw this. If you do this, be sure to ask the correct questions to identify the immigration enforcement agents. They will use the fact that you likely don’t know the right questions to ask to justify not telling you. No, I am not joking.

See how different the police are in Switzerland? They clear the streets for the protesters and keep them safe. This is the way every government should treat peaceful protesters.

the regressiveness of the Trump's big bill, in one image

The sale of public lands in their state is something that even Republican reps might be persuaded to care about. This is something that can genuinely anger their constituents, especially if the lands are currently used for hunting or other recreation.
