What's the fucking point then

Greatest thread in the history of the forums etc etc

Today’s the day I’ve waited so long for (first Seahawks game)

There are a surprising number of NFL wide receivers with hyphenated names.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba
Marquez Valdez-Scantling
JuJu Smith-Schuster
Amon-Ra St Brown

I can only think of one non-WR with a hyphenated name and that's Maurice Jones-Drew

I find Buddhism hopeful in the way that I always wanted Christianity to be when I was practicing it intensely

Part of the fun of the 2013-14 seahawks was that 49ers-era Jim Harbaugh was such a good villain.

Solidarity forever

I'm coming more and more to the conclusion that the best thing you can do to help your DSA chapter is to cultivate love and compassion within yourself

My cat is so caught in samsara is embarrassing

Pro-housing socialists like Willie and Zohran are the future for both the YIMBY movemenf and Left! Super excited to see this

DSA 🤝 YIMBY groups
DSA candidates who
believe in housing as
a human right

Huge congratulations to @willieburnleyjr.bsky.social for winning the mayoral endorsement from @somervilleyimby.org !! It means a lot that housing justice groups recognize that he's the best candidate. Now let's get him in office!

Amazing article - and my personal favorite part :) www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Do you have evidence of the NKT funding? I hear this claim brought up all the time but I’m not sure where it comes from

ID-01 inshallah

Worth noting that it's a bit reductive though. SMC and GW aren't "reformist" in any meaningful sense, and there are members of each who would describe themselves as communists

Ok google does smoking cigarettes get me closer to enlightenment

At the DSA National Convention, I’ve been struck by the need for a new kind of politics in DSA.

So we’re starting a new caucus. Provisionally called “Your Caucus”—directly elected, member driven, and for the first time, explicitly socialist.

Join us: yourcaucus.us

No it isn’t

I think if there’s another 1m1v resolution proposed for 2027 (which I hope there will be) that the resolution would include restrictions on campaign spending in some form

If you look on the far left you can see me running to be in the picture because I was late

Was it La Calle? I went there and got a vegetarian burrito that was 90% lettuce and rice sadly

With the notable exception of Fontano's which had a kickass eggplant parm

Now that convention's over I can admit that every single restaurant I went to in Chicago was mid to bad

For those who feel this anger and want to organize to do something about it:
