I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

Starting a new adventure. Something we've been wanting to do for the past two years

Our Seattle event got some great articles written about it, so proud of my community for being loud and visible in our fight to protect everyone targeted by fascism www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

We're in dire need to keep raising money because of the expenses of keeping all of the eSIMs topped up. For the latest about our project: disabilityvisibilityproject.com/2025/01/29/c...

Hi! Disability scholar here. IQ is a deeply racist and classist metric weaponized by eugenicists and used to claim the innate superiority of the white ruling class. Stop listening to ppl who crow about IQ. Intelligence means nothing without compassion, humbleness, and owning one’s mistakes.

I've seen a few people mention (one to me) others before and now today that libraries are advocating free stuff/not sales for the author. Libraries don't acquire books by magic. They buy copies with money. It can be hundreds/thousands of sales. People pay taxes to use the library. Nothing is free.

The cars keep lurching to the far right.

AND I stubbed my pinky toe so we're really starting the weekend off right.

TIL I was gone from the union too long and lost all the pension hours I'd accumulated before I left LA, and now I've gotta build back up from scratch. If I ever get union work again, that is.

Republican rep getting shouted down by his own constituents at a townhall in a deep red R+30 district is something.

We’re creating a list of deals and special offers for District residents impacted by the recent federal layoffs — from discounted drinks to free headshots and career coaching. Help us build this community resource by adding to the list, here: airtable.com/appl7lWf605d...

Among the states are South Carolina (yes, a reversal of their current school book ban legislation!), Rhode Island, Arkansas, Tennessee, and many more. If you have been calling when you're opposing a bill, here's an opportunity to call in support.

BIG ISSUE for comics, i made my calls this morning and encourage everyone in comics to phone in + encourage others

A lot of the destruction is happening in places most people are not aware even exist & the destroyers are counting on that. Making that known, doing what is asked, is excellent resistance.

The tea party was heavily subsidized by the koch brothers who leveraged their racist enmity for disinformation campaigns. At least your anger will be organic.

that Spider-Men pointing at each other meme but every western country pointing at each other's far-right movements

yall are worried that fictional villains will teach people the wrong lesson but sixty years of fiction has failed to teach people that that nazis are the bad guys so idk

LRP like stg we are in this mess because people didn’t have the spine to punish the confederates. Reconstruction is where Jim Crow came from and that inspired fucking Nazis, so like no, we are not rehabbing the burned MAGAs. They have to fix their hearts or die.

If we can't sleep peacefully, they don't get to sleep peacefully. Don't call your republican reps because you think you can convince them. Call them because fuck them, they don't get a free pass on this shit.

it's disheartening how many people are *only now* criticizing Musk because he's online calling them slurs I legit have trouble grasping minds that thought he was fine until he started being directly abusive, "oh none of that other stuff mattered, but now that I'M his target it's DIFFERENT!" =\

If you do not view - Black - NGC - Indigenous - disabled - women - lower class -immigrants As people When you design software for “people”/ users You will make choices that enforce that and MUST ADJUST FOR IT Like you adjust for altitude in baking

No, the mail is not “the least of our worries.” It’s a fucking important worry. It is the only postal service that delivers to every address. They are only provider of complete mail services for overseas military bases and provide free overseas PO boxes. They help prepare passport apps. Ship meds…

Students have to lead because the self-proclaimed leadership of U.S. science--NAS, AAAS, HHMI, universities--are cowering under their desks.

acknowledging the history and existence of black people in america is not dei; it is not diversity; it is describing what is in front of you.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.
