Stop trying to be bi partisan and be so fucking for real!!!

I read the article and I am very curious how they attach it to the garment... with 3d printers I hope there will be aftermarket feet that can be used for existing machines

I'm blown away by all the people who showed up to the No Kings Rally today. We can make our democracy work again, and I want to be your mayor to do just that.

I just don’t think white mainlanders should buy property in Hawaii, full stop, let alone billionaires building enormous compounds.

This is a great point and brings up something I've been thinking about.

Critical literacy is a teachable skill, and while it's easiest to develop in grade school, it's also something that adults can learn.

If we could develop a community ethos of teaching literacy, it would be enormously powerful.

Monarca

Be wary of joy-stealers and skeptics. It takes a lot crazy belief in goodness to fight fascism, and the heroes are the one who don't care how stupid they look

Chicago - no kings

If a tow truck company tows a car they may have to identify, or 'unmask' the cars owner...

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Making arroz caldo- Filipino rice congee, but with collagen broth from chicken feet. And it is the first time making it from chx ft, and if I can get past the visual of them toe claws, it is bussin'! (Chopped ginger in the broth and topped with scallions that I grew 🎉)

Is anyone else just kinda tired and burnt out of… everything?

I feel like I’ve been so much more anti-social the past several months. I just want to curl up on a couch and not deal with anything 🙃

I find comfort in that, thank you.

Federal agents invaded even the offices of The Crisis and the National Association for the advancement of colored people and asked searching questions: " just what, after all, were our objects and activities?” I took great satisfaction in being able to sit back in my chair and answer blandly, “We are seeking to have the constitution of the United states thoroughly and completely enforced.” It took some ingenuity, even for Southerners, to make treason out of that.

How W. E. B. Du Bois responded to government policing of "anti-American" sentiment during the 1910s:

"I took great satisfaction in being able to sit back in my chair and answer blandly, 'We are seeking to have the Constitution of the United States thoroughly and completely enforced.' ”

Lunch is on the house: Being in the heart of downtown DC, we love that so many of our Federal employees stop by during lunch for a Donburi at China Chilcano or a Fútbol Club at Jaleo. And just because the government is shut down doesn't mean you have to miss out on your favorite lunch spot- because this time, its on us! Join us for lunch from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM at any of our participating restaurants and enjoy a free lunch item when you present your government ID-you heard that right! Dine in with us Monday through Friday and choose your favorite: a sandwich at Jaleo, a donburi at China Chilcano, a wrap or pita at Zaytinya, or a torta at Oyamel. We've always believed in serving our community with open arms and good food-no shutdown can stop that.

I know I could get into trouble for posting the Antifa battle flag, but I'm gonna do it anyway.

Oh, he is such a Rush Limbaugh wannabe.
