At what point will the convenience of tech be outweighed by the need to habitually check anything you look at is real.

AOC during Zohran for Mayor rally: "There are people out there who say, 'If you go out and make this endorsement, your political career will be over.' And to that I say: I don't care. We will never get to a better place if everyone is just worried about themselves. If it's over, so be it."

The idea that this political violence is the consequence of people on both sides cheering it on seems like a sympathetic point but just doesn’t hold up to history. In my adult life, I’ve seen people on the right do everything from kill politicians to kill regular citizens, and it’s shrugged off.

Yes. Turns out it's very squeaky.

Happy Parade Day!

We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest, and totals are still coming in. Just… wow. WOW 😮! There’s nothing more to say.

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism

Learning about “crypto rug pulls” Seems like a good way to make money quickly but still too many steps I would like to “cut out the middle man” so instead I am just going to pitch now, everyone just venmo me like $10-20 You will receive nothing in return

Or police can spend today finding the murderer instead of beating up protesters.

School House Rocks: The Real Story

“if they can do this to a senator they can do this to anybody” they already are doing it to everybody wtf do you think weve been saying

Vroom vroom

Show me your signs for Saturday. I’ll start. #NoKings #resust

In honor of Trump unironically attending Les Mis, I will unironically repost the thread of which I am likely most proud: Why Les Mis was an ahead-of-its-time primer on the cause and harms of mass incarceration (with citations).

The inability to grasp the moral meaning of a famously unsubtle work of art— —and the suggestion that he might identify more with Javert, the inflexible obsessive lawman ultimately unable to live with himself after what he sees— —make this a perfect Trumpian moment of ignorance and immorality.

ICE TRIED TO ROLL OUT IN Manhattan-New Yorkers said "NAH" AND SENT THEM BACK INSIDE!!

I’ll tell you what. If you voted for Trump, and now it’s coming back to bite you, I don’t want to hear about how sad you are. I want to know what you’re gonna do about it. Start there.

A grand total of 160 people have been arrested for protesting in LA in almost an entire week! That requires 4,700 armed troops? Only when you're Chicken Little trying to manufacture a crisis.

Racism is ignorance

What a rotten reality to have a White House occupant who hates so many Americans and hates everything our democratic nation stands for.

Every time you see them escalate, both through action or word, just remember: power doesn’t panic. They’d not be acting like this if they actually thought they were unbeatable. They want to scare people because fear is the only way they win.

Raw Milk anyone?

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

Not true. I see you're a luxury watch dealer. I'm also interested in watches. Let me show you how free and easy migration has allowed you to earn a living. 🧵

unlike Vietnam or Afghanistan at least the Marines coming to.L.A. know exactly what this fight is all about

Anyone who's ever talked to me about genetic services has gotten the same reservation because of this exact scenario. Always remember, the EULAs, etc. have an edit button, and future owners can and will just change the agreement without notice.

They've been trying to numb us for a long time. Fascism. Oppression. Genocide. All on display. They want us desensitized, to think it's just the way the world works when deep down we know it is unnatural. Don't let them take away the feeling from you. It's uncomfortable because you're human.

I have a new hero. This owl stole a child's hobby horse and flies around with it!

No lies detected, besides everything from RFKj's mouth.

Fascism is a big price to pay for making a few inadequate men feel better about themselves.
