Don’t look now, but #OUFootball may have found a running game.

Imagine if we did this but instead of paying people to racially profile and terrorize communities and grab mostly innocent people we did it for teachers

A cat is seen riding a bus. They are standing up and have their front paws on the back of the front seat.

this is what will happen if mamdani makes bus rides free

Sam's Club is part of Wal-Mart and Wal-Mart workers are among the largest recipients of SNAP in this country. Apparently, some Wal-Marts will help employees fill out SNAP applications as part of their HR paperwork. When people start going hungry on Nov 1 part of the reason is companies underpay them

if you want to defend the working class? buy out a street vendor’s cart so they don’t have to choose between their income or kidnapping by ICE

This explains so much. I was very confused, as it hasn’t really stopped raining for long at any point this year in NM.

tweet from matty that reads "I'm honestly still not 100% sure how you're supposed to tell if a given skull insignia is specifically a nazi skull"

oh so now suddenly these guys can't do phrenology

This is it, friends. This is who we have to be. We have to stand up for EVERYONE. No one gets thrown under the bus. Do not accept anything less from any leader. We ALL belong.

It is fascinating to contrast this with Obama’s posture during his presidency. This is what I expected from Obama and he shifted so quickly to bland centrist dreck. Maybe Mamdani will as well. I hope not.

Laughing because this is by far my preferred way to order coffee and… fair.

Mamdani: "But there is one thing that I will change: I will no longer look for myself in the shadows. I will find myself in the light."

Screenshot of live video feed from the end of Mamdani's press conference. Mamdani stands before microphone in dark suit and tie, lips pursed, with heartfelt expression.

Mamdani: "There are 12 days remaining until Election Day. I will be a Muslim man in NYC each of those 12 days and every day that follows after that. I will not change who I am, how I eat, or the faith that I am proud to call my own."

Mamdani: "The bigger question is whether we are willing to say goodbye to ... anti-Muslim sentiment that has grown so endemic in our city that when we hear it, we know not whether the words were spoken by a Republican or a Democrat."

Chuck, all you’re doing is “standing” on social media. We’re fucking tired. Get your fucking ass out there and go nuclear or support someone who will.

People with UBI and food stamps and rent control make for employees who are much harder to coerce and control and the rich know that step one in that process is taxes.

Y'all Come Teat! ❤️👍

“Don’t have standards or resist anything that flagrantly violates those common-sense standards” is a hell of a hill to die on a decade into an authoritarian takeover

But bro, if you are C, W, and M enough, we will throw you a state funeral and fire/deport those who point out your bad behavior, as recent events show. There are hierarchies and it is very very clear who gets THAT treatment. Fin/

And just to be very clear, that can mean that those lacking any or all of the signifiers conservative, white, and man, can still be an absurd or predator and deploy these strategies. But they aren’t AS effective for them bc the system isn’t really DESIGNED for them. 2/

The current state of our society makes a lot more sense when you realize that every system is designed or pressured to ensure conservative white men cannot be held accountable. Others can benefit. But the goal is to insulate conservative white men. 1/

“How dare you consistently ask that political candidates have the kind of judgment & maturity that the average high school social studies teacher possesses?? Why are you being so mean to this smol bean white guy who displayed awful judgment many times over the years, including right now???? Ughh!!”

BREAKING: Former Mayor Lori Lightfoot announces the formation of the "ICE Accountability Project." She says it will be a central repository for all ICE/CBP immigration actions. She also says it will include a database of who the agents are. "We're going to unmask them so the public knows who's committing illegal acts," Lightfoot says. More on the "Chicago Report" tonight at 10pm on @fox32news

ok

And yes, we read whole books, too. Just stuff about being human and what that might look like and how we can stand together to make life better.

When books were being pulled from Iowa classrooms, these teens started an after-school club to read them Three Iowa City West high schoolers founded a book club that reads some of the country's most frequently banned books after a state law removing books with sexual content was signed in 2023. Two years later, many of the books have been reshelved and parts of the law can't be enforced.

Ryan Coogler Is Rebooting The X-Files for His Mom Ryan Coogler says he’s rebooting ‘The X-Files’ for his mom, a major fan of the show, and she’s already read some pages: ‘She’s fired up.’

It would be comforting me (as a white man) to be to say that racism is just a mental illness. It removes all responsibility. But anyone paying attention knows that ain't true.

For Thiel and others of his execrable ilk are, they're just assholes.

In political organizing, there is often a time-lag between peaceful mass protests and the impact of the community building that takes place during and after them. And you often won’t be aware of the linkage between the latter and the former unless you’re part of the organizing process.
