If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

The holy Modelo lolll

They also have videos of AI black women on TikTok trying to use EBT in places it’s not accepted and getting belligerent .

It’s always black women. Black people first in these attempts to spread stigmas and and create a narrative 😑

If you are of the political commentariat I don't wanna hear shit from you except how to feed people

Complaining about not being able to afford to live where you grew up is not selfishness, and it's a weight that working and especially Black and brown working communities have been carrying since long before this current housing crunch.

This is the most detailed view of a human cell..

This is so mesmerizing.

Omg 🤢

Lol something we all need to hear from time to time

Well, thank you! 💚

Good morning from these Halloween goblins

Call me a filthy commie but I think maybe if you're worried about open borders because thrm people who hate us will come here to hurt us, maybe we just stop fucking up their countries, and then perhaps they won't hate us anymore, just saying

I talk about being frozen when faced with the scale of need we're staring at around food insecurity, and what I'm doing about it to stay sane; I've started a fundraiser for Food Gatherers, my local @feedingamerica.org partner, and invite y'all to help keep my friends and neighbors from the brink

. @dan-sinnamon.bsky.social and I put CLOSE READING FOR THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY together to help connect what undergrads do in assignments with what we do as scholars

then we found ourselves talking to a lot of high school teachers

I do some of the largest scale mutual aid work on the planet. You absolutely cannot mutual aid your way out of state capacity.

You can reduce some of the short-term harm via mutual aid. But that's a stop-gap measure, and here's why.🧵

been thinking about this a lot and want to (again) plug Astoria Food Pantry which will need extra funding to help our neighbors if/when SNAP benefits are cut off. we've already been running out of food faster than usual this month—any donation amount will help! givebutter.com/afp2025

My friend told me that her 14 year old son started doing laundry on Sundays for some of his elderly neighbors. He doesn't charge for the labor. And now he is the most popular person in the building and has non stop pies, cookies, and cake. The 14 year old should be our model of modern masculinity.

Food banks can make your money go farther than if you buy food at a grocery store and donate that. The one we donate to can get 4 meals for a dollar. I wouldn't know how to begin with that 🫠 but they buy in bulk and make it work! The ones in your area likely have similar methods.

Oh wow that quilt is beautiful 😍

I decided to close the fundraiser from the writers conference and start fresh.

This is really important.

My daughter is terrified and I am on the other side of the ocean. Until I can get an early flight home, I need your help.

Thank you.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

The point is, you, the person reading this? You're awesome. You're beautiful. You're perfect just the way you are and the world is better because you're in it. You'll never be "enough" for the haters, so just do as much good as you can and love yourself for it.

Although it’s called the “Daily Fail” for legitimate reasons, the Daily Mail posted on its YouTube channel an informative and fascinating video in which three generations of #NYC subway conductors talk about driving the trains and working for the MTA. youtu.be/_I3tIwj5RK0?... #transit #PublicTransit

I'm gonna stop saying "this is what y'all voted for" (even though we need to accept that a LARGE number of Americans did very much vote for this) and instead say what I really mean: This is what y'all refused to vote *against*

In “Takin’ It To The Street” Michael McDonald expresses the need for leaderless grassroots action after expressing broad solidarity and skepticism of self-appointed leadership, in this essay I will…

I cannot recommend you enough to install the Wikipedia app on your devices and use it like you would any search engine. Nowadays they even have tabs so you can open many articles at once.

And, if you can, please donate to the foundation. It has survived the internet enshittification that way.

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

We need this given the melodysheep autotune treatment, and then dropped into some deep house
