I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.

I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

Others have already spoken to this, but a major element of Midway Blitz is the admin signaling that nothing and nowhere is sacred. Holidays, graveyards, school campuses, churches, homes.

Nothing is off limits to the roving bands of masked, heavily armed strangers who say they're here to save us.

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

Do you rich guys want angry bread riot mobs? Because that's how you get angry bread riot mobs.

A blue water color mark that says land back

A blue water color mark that says free Palestine

A blue water color mark that says no kings

I feel like we keep things pretty clear where we stand but it can’t hurt to be explicit 💙

The inflatable frog has gone global. Today’s #NoKings #NoTyrants rallies in Japan, Australia, Spain, and Germany.

It appears the spell Taylor Swift has had on folks under has broken, which like good…

I hate having to peer at images and video and wonder if it's real.
I hate having to peer at an account and decide if it's a real person, and if so, if they're acting in good faith.
I hate that this distrust of my sense of reality is all part of the fascist project.

but if we're going to survive the next few years, much less effectively organize against the regime, we all REALLY need to get better about reading more than just the headlines (or the skeets about the headlines).

Who better to impress than my partner’s stoic therapist?

Thanks to my sister for having introduced me to the idea, but I have been getting a lot of mileage out of the thought that it’s a credit to my character that I can’t understand some people’s motives and then it’s easier to let go of trying 🤷🏻‍♂️

Find people.

Start making connections. Get comfortable with closeness. Be familiar. Be shameless. Join groups. Attend events. Write emails. Send messages. Introduce yourself constantly. Ask to be introduced to others. Invite yourself wherever you can. Demand access. Demand a presence. Show up.

Sometimes the problem isn’t that you’re ‘unmotivated’ or ‘undisciplined.’ You’re just fried. Nervous system absolutely cooked. Brain melted. Running on fumes. And no, another morning routine, habit tracker, or biohacking podcast isn’t gonna fix it. You need actual rest. Connection. Safety. Time.

There's no reward in the attention economy for saying 'actually I don't know what is to be done now.' If there were, we'd be better off.

May every single human being on this planet be safe.

May every single person be protected from harm.

May we bring into being a time in which we are all free from those who do evil— together, speedily and in our days.

we always have money for war, but not the people.

never the people.

Not people on LinkedIn spreading anti socialist propaganda and saying that capitalism has made “all there dreams come true”… 💀

I wish journalists would stop framing political news as wins or losses for politicians or political parties. It’s an abrogation of our mission. Why do we keep doing this? Is the spending bill a win or loss for the American people? Who does it help? Who does it hurt? Is it sound policy? Fiscally?

Beyond time for a worker-led anti-AI Luddite uprising.

Stop to smell the dandelions and fix your velcro shoes: a sense of urgency and lack of presence in your own life isn’t helping anyone suffering through all this in theirs…

Ooof y’all it is rough out there, and I recommend taking a kid in your life to a coffee shop for some levity
Seeing a tiny human not know the “social rules” of eating a bagel go on to wrangle a very small to you and big to them mug of hot chocolate just is nice perspective

100 men vs. 1 gorilla?

How about the working class against the oligarchy?

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.

This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

Why is this childnin in the video acting as if imprisoned garment workers will ever become paid garment workers?

Do they not see that the system of unpaid labor *replaces* paid jobs?

As bad as rest of the market is doing, Tesla is crashing twice as fast.
