Grateful for the incredible photos by @jmgiordanophoto.bsky.social and editing from @humanpoweredcity.bsky.social

Did you know: Gislane Maxwell was transferred to a nice minimum security prison after talking with trumps lawyer.

A sex trafficker, was transferred to a nicer place by Donald Trump.

Wonder why? Also looks like GOP is the pedo defenders.

Instead of inviting people who are classroom-adjacent to keynote every educational conference, pay some current classroom teachers to discuss what’s working and what’s not while teaching under a fascist administration.

'The Edge of Ruin' The new photobook by Marc Wilson is a survey of the shadows and imprints on the landscape formed by man in the pursuit of industry.

My 24 hour target on the Kickstarter is to reach 28/29% as I did in my previous campaigns at this stage.
We’re at 27% right now with 59 backers.
2 or 3 more to get us there I think.

Please back this if you are able. Really important work from Marc.

Throwing the super rich in prison and seizing their assets would be preferable.

meme format where a man from an anime is looking at a butterfly and asks if it's a pigeon, but instead the man is Americans, the butterfly is labeled "basic human rights” and the quote is "is this communism?"

probably a good time to bring this back

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

Corporatized media is a joke. Yes, what a “strange turn” the people of one of the most unaffordable cities has made— towards people centered policies that help us all rather than the donor class. Crazy. Folks, recognize who benefits from your oppression and who feeds you the news. Stay woke!

Ay @zacblanchardd11.bsky.social this is the second accident in a month in front of baltimore school for the arts. U gonna honor your promise to create traffic calming in front of the school or nah?

Hope and solidarity won tonight, and will win again in November.

Congratulations, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.

While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.

End this oligarchy.

If he loses this vote he should resign as leader.

It’s not just late buses: Baltimore kids face serious safety risks Baltimore students have been followed, harassed, assaulted and held up at gunpoint while crisscrossing the city on public transit to get to and from school.

NEW: Baltimore students told about their experiences with violence and harassment on the way to school in the state's only district without yellow bus service for middle and high schoolers.

CBS Sunday Morning in 10 years:
"You might remember former President Donald Trump from his long read tie. Now he's a musician, singing a different tune!"

A few black and whites from the (at least) 300 strong memorial march from Penn/North to Upton for Baltimore arabber Bilal "BJ" Abdullah, who died after being shot by Baltimore City Police. It was 10 years ago in April that Freddie Gray died following his arrest near the same location.
