Ooof it's gonna be swampy in NYC while I'm there this week....

There’s something so deeply unsettling about Trump’s all-consuming desire to be adored and his constant failure at even getting people (from his wife to the rally crowds) to pretend to love him in the way he wants them to.

Hard as hell. Just absolutely hard as hell.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

great reminder to all of those Democrats and liberals saying that we need to abandon red states because they are gerrymandered into right wing autocracies where the vote isn’t in their favor instead of accepting that we are gonna have to fight for every American no matter where they are.

I hope some of you actually take some joy in these pathetic images of this ridiculous and now boring military parade. It's a fiasco and everyone gets to point and laugh. More hard days ahead but for today enjoy.

Great piece in today’s NY Times by @tressiemcphd.bsky.social about the persistent demands that Barack Obama “do something.” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/o...

Mark was such a smoke show in this one. #kith

Whole lot of people saying “she must resign” who should be saying “I am introducing articles of impeachment.”

Reupping this for the nth time on the internet. The USA is 100% responsible for the current situation in Iran. The CIA overthrew their democracy in 1953 and just because an event was in the past does not mean it has no modern repercussions.

communists dont support 'sides' because we oppose imperialism itself. its not about supporting iran, but unfortunately theres no way to get this idea across to zionists and losers

I'm old enough to remember when the Patriot act laid the groundwork for this and people kept saying stuff like, we'll, if you're not a terrorist you have no reason to worry! And then I'd say, well, who says who's a terrorist?

The Plot to Enslave America, in chart form.

FYI... "The woman said of the “refugees”: “They were understanding that they would be arriving here for complete assistance. People thought they would be arriving at a house, a job, medical insurance, and other things. It isn’t that way at all." www.thesouthafrican.com/lifestyle/af...

Ai is about flooding the zone with shit. The billionaires have seen the future, and it's one that keeps ppl online and fearful. We aren't supposed to believe ANYTHING. "If everything is Ai, what is reality? Why bother?" They can do anything. They'll say the next Holocaust like Gaza is Ai. Not real.

This guy was a clock in Beauty and the Beast.

Watching my totally normie lib friends go full black bloc in the span of a few months is genuinely exciting and I'm so proud of all of you

I need a way to request time off from work bc I've spent time among the redwoods and the tide pools and nothing matters anymore

Seems useful to see the live feeds from known sources, because what they show is quite different from the narrative of giant riots that's floating around.

I try to be patient with people but if you repost Will Stancil, that's an unfollow.

We can’t afford healthcare because we need that money to shoot rubber bullets into the stomachs of people who don’t want their neighbors to get kidnapped.

It's shocking that this much naivete is still so widespread. Yes, they will harm us. They have done it before. They will do it again.

Acting like there was ever a lesser evil is how we got to this point. Acting like there was ever an electoral way to dismantle an empire was always just delaying the inevitable. I know, I was one of those who spent 08-16 watching Portlandia and going to brunch.

A++ method, highly recommended. Great for public hearings or organizing meetings as well as big mobilizations. Especially great if you're not a "big crowds" or "stand/walk without pain for long periods" guy. Pool funds for pizza and put on a movie. .

FROM PALESTINE TO MEXICO THESE BORDER WALZ HAVE GOT TO GO

people really need to grasp that Trump is only a symptom and one of the realities is that the reason Democrats have never been willing to deal with the fascism that Trump represents is because actually dealing with that fascism and eradicating it would mean destroying the roots of this country.

NPR has been state propaganda for the neoliberal status quo for a while. This is just the latest attempt to prop up the notion that Dems somehow "need" people like Portnoy's fan base, justifying their constant lurch to the right.

My boss: and any updates on your end? Me, snapping to attention after spending the entire meeting imagining what it would be like to hold Joe Rogan's head at arm's length while he flails his little arms at me and fails to make contact: nope, everything's nominal for me.

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

You're making too much sense

Because it's 2025, and most people in the US still don't know what their own military looks like... ~1 in every 7 US Marines nationwide, is from California. ~1 in every 4 US Marines nationwide, is Hispanic or Latino.

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids. Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

Want truth about why the Trump administration is going after totally innocent people? It’s because Biden literally deported every migrant with so much as a parking ticket. Kamala wanted to build a wall. Obama was the bomber and deporter in chief. With Dems like this we don’t needed a gop.
