Washington Times headline reads: Air Fleet Ordered to W VA Battlefield.

Known as the Battle of Blair Mountain, this was the largest labor uprising in US history and the largest armed uprising since the Civil War. For a month, 10,000 coal miners confronted some 3,000 company guards, state soldiers, and strikebreakers. Nearly a million rounds were shot.

Americans are sick of skipping doctor’s appointments, rationing medicine & delaying lifesaving surgeries because health care is so expensive.

If we don’t act now, millions of Americans will lose their health insurance. Dems are fighting to protect our people & reopen the government.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Kristi Noem says no US citizens have been detained by ICE.

This is literally Nazi shit. This is what the Nazis did. If you support this, you are a Nazi, and if that makes you upset, then STOP BEING A FUCKING NAZI

Tolkien is not perfect but he did, in fact, hate the fucking Nazis.

Just found out my 12yo is getting recruiting ads for ICE on his school computer. “Help your country. $50k signing bonus.” Depraved and predatory

Had this happen with the Of Knights audiobook (poor fella’s already unavailable after only two weeks of life) Here’s the response I got from InAudio this morning:

This is a real thing that a judge had to say to the Chief of US Customs and Border Protection.

no one has ever been more relatable answering a question about AI

If you're a queer Texas author of adult or YA fiction & you have one of your books on hand that you'd like to sign & donate to a silent auction bundle for Equality Texas, DM me?

The event is Nov 15th so it would need to get in the mail ASAP, or in Austin area I can pick up.

Reposts appreciated! 🏳️‍🌈

I spied on the Texas politics reddit a while ago and then spied on it recently and the anger toward Paxton was palpable

Last time I did some international mail but this time, uh... the govt is a hot mess so I am not sure about cost or even availability, honestly.
The bookmarks are very silly. And Mattin-themed.

basically, instead of my usual holiday drive, I am doing this. some signed books (probably only mailed in the US tho, unfortunately.) a small ebook bundle. and then the bits of swag with the books or... idk if people would bid on a paper bookmark.

Hmm so I used a zazzle voucher and got like 10 ridiculous bookmarks for a quick food bank charity auction thing. And now I am wondering if I should do more?? Or if I should hole punch them and make little tassel-y things? I do not own a hole punch though. hmm also some stickers but they aren't new.

Washington post article that says “MAGA singles are looking for love in Washington. It's a challenge.“ Subbed: The politics of trying to find a partner in an overwhelmingly liberal city can be tricky: "My partner can't think I'm a fascist. That's crazy."

Every couple of months Conservatives publish this article about how no one wants to fuck them and we are apparently not supposed to think they’re losers.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”

It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

OK folks, here's the deal. Spotify is running ICE recruitment ads and has ignored asks to stop. It's time to tell them we won't stream fascism - by cancelling our subscriptions. Here's how to get started: indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

I don’t get food stamps. I don’t even know what a food stamp card looks like. YET you could not pay me to care about what people are buying with theirs. My taxes can and are being used for worse things than people eating.

if you cannot cope with hearing other languages spoken on a daily basis i have real concerns about whether your cognitive and emotional abilities are sufficient to partake in the society of adult humans

Let me be very clear. It is not enough that RFK Jr. was forced to admit today that no causal relationship between Tylenol and autism has been shown.

We know that while disinformation spreads like wildfire on social media, corrections most often die on the vine.

From what I have seen, a lot of Texans hate them too. Especially Paxton.
