America only has one king 🫡

"A new generation of young women garment workers are organizing across factories and borders. They are even building relationships with women workers in the US. The fashion industry has no idea what's coming."

I have Done A Thing and now… I also have had too much caffeine

It’s my birthday today! 🎉 If you want to give me the best present I could ask for, would you please read our webcomic Walk On, Weetrill? And then share it with your pals or a repost? This story is my heart, and sending it out into the world is our biggest dream! 🌲❄️💙

I really just cannot brag enough about how good this new @indivisible.org resource on next week's congressional recess is. If you're looking for practical ideas about what you can actually do in this moment, check it out: indivisi.org/muskorus

Who could have ever expected heavy snow at Donner?

Every time Mitch McConnell votes no I actually hate him more. It’s too late to worry about the leopard when you’re the one who let him in the room #uspol

It’s like Get Your War On came to life

Slightly buried the lede but: if you're a queer couple and you want to get married ASAP in a state with strong protections before Obergefell inevitably gets overturned by fascists I will do an officiate for you for free (if you drop by the shop when I'm here just call/email ahead to make sure I am).

Millennials undefeated at hating 👑

49ers and Vikings will have to swap places, but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make

'Mexico' is masculine 'America' is feminine What I'm saying is that Trump changed the gender of a body of water

This sucks. They really produced some absolute masterpieces

Friend of a friend in USAID has been in Bangkok for 20 yrs and was given 5 days to leave the country. Ordered, too, not allowed to stay on own rec Her brother had just moved to 🇹🇭 to be near her while he transitions They’re not on good terms with their parents (luckily she can move in with an aunt)

Do you have republican reps? Now is the time to call. They only need to flip 3 to keep Musk out of your most sensitive data. Right now he may have access not only to your SSN and tax records, but also potentially whatever bank accounts you use to pay taxes/receive refunds.

This picture from L’Express is fucking brutal lmao #uspol

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

I hate it when my ailing king is usurped by his scheming foreign vizier

There are people who have been in-country for years. They don’t have homes in the US.

Shoutout to the guy wearing a Luigi hat in the background of this. King shit

Looks like the nonstop shouting at the WA delegation paid off— good work everyone (remember to thank your senators for voting nay! Positive reinforcement!)

Maybe Canada should preemptively invade us to restore democracy

Can't get through on the phone to senators and rep so I have Written The Emails... and I'm asking for responses in order to be annoying #uspol

People in and around USAID, State Department, and other agencies — I'm hearing about a lotta stuff. I'd like to hear more about it from you. Please feel welcome to reach out via Signal premthakker.35 Your anonymity will be protected. And friends, please boost this so others can find it too.

USAID's foreign aid dashboard with data on all foreign assistance is down now. I downloaded all data last night after USAID's other database, the DEC, was removed. If you know others archiving government data, please share. In the meantime, contact me if you need the files.

Senator’s vm full on Saturday morning 😒 Maybe you shouldn’t have fucked off for a long weekend during a national emergency, idk #uspol

Now more than ever archaeologists should take notice about what they wrote vs what their employer/client submitted. Famous recent case in Louisiana where a hired archaeologist recommended more work & an area avoided because of a slave cemetery. The client changed it to read "no adverse effects". 1/
