Important perspective from Greenland.
Cancer research costs too much but we have the money to run Venezuela
When I say AI is a rhetorical technology
I don’t want to return to normalcy and bipartisanship. I don’t want to break bread with these gutless pigs and slobs. I want to defeat them, to beat them back into the cultural backwaters in which they belong and then erect an airtight cultural barrier around them so the rest of us may finally live.
There are no rules, they don’t actually care about respect, decorum, bipartisanship or debate, and only pretend to do so to browbeat you into submission. Nothing is going to change until more people realise that and respond accordingly; including to the media and politicians who have failed them.
Autocorrect genuinely has me considering switching for android for the first time in my life. I’ve owned almost every iPhone since the 4, and I had three generations of iPod touch before that. The iOS keyboard has NEVER done me dirty like this.
Thinking this is wrong is not radical.
Thinking it isn’t is.
Happy New Year to everyone who's been holding the line on community care by wearing masks and refusing to normalize treating disabled people as disposable.
Honestly, if I was married to Stephen Miller I would also want to die.
Did you end up getting it?
I'm at the combination
Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?
Reminder: boycott Black Friday and Cyber Monday. No corporate spending!! Support small businesses ❤️✨
Alice Wong was one of the first voices that I latched onto upon becoming disabled. To say I learned from her would be wholly inadequate. I found peace because of her. I found solidarity in her words and actions. I found community in her—our— community. She was an amazing activist and person 💔
These are the people who want to inspect your kids genitals before they play soccer btw
You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique
just opening up the new Epstein docs at random:
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
Have you tried resetting your algo? Sometimes that helps. I’ve been finding good community there lately, but obv don’t fault anyone for jumping ship
There’s not enough attention being paid to the fact that ICE deported a man in a persistent vegetative state
Or the fact that he was perfectly healthy when he was detained, and his family have no idea what was done to him to cause such a severe decline
He died shortly after being deported to Cuba
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.
I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.
Yesterday I got the call that my SNAP benefits won’t be paid in November and today I found out my health insurance is going from $27/mo to $1,563/mo lmao. This country wants me dead BAD bad.
Instead of trying to green cars so much why don't we just invest in trains. city trains. under ground trains. above ground trains. trains between cities. trains between countries. TRAINS
THE PEOPLE CRAVE TRAINS
It's been 35 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.
Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.
We live in an episode of Veep
i cannot believe that “mamdani calls a close adult relative an ‘aunt’ even if they are not literally their parent’s sister” is what counts as a “scandal” these days
He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.
Remove him from office.
Apparently Aldi is doing a $40 thanksgiving dinner with turkey.
The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
