Canned food with the text: No matter what you might be hearing, Oregonians' SNAP benefits for November are available and won't be taken away, the Multnomah County logo, and the link multco.us/food.

In Oregon, SNAP benefits for November are available and won’t be taken away.

If you have questions, please check with Oregon Department of Human Services.

If you have other needs, like housing or utility costs, because you had to stretch to pay for food last week, please call @211info.bsky.social.

A chart showing a 20 year price change between sectors.

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.

If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

I think a number of press outlets badly want there to be a groundswell of anti-trans feeling, because the ownership/senior editorial of those papers have absolutely cooked their own brains on transphobia. It seems to be largely an elite psychosis!

“Once Rep. Grijalva is sworn in and signs the Massie discharge petition, more than 100 Republicans will vote with all Democrats to release the Epstein files to get in front of what's coming.”

NEW: EXCLUSIVE: I spoke to sources at FBI and DOJ that reviewed the Epstein files. It’s worse than the photos. I’ll let you know what they said today at 3:30 PM PT / 6:30 PM ET on @meidastouch.com. Link to show: www.youtube.com/live/hEi77Ib...

You cannot separate the current nightmare we now inhabit from the collapse/crisis in how rich, powerful middle-aged men perceive masculinity, especially their own insecurities.

Lots of hard, shitty lessons being learned from this presidency. And one of the many I hope you're learning is, white supremacy is incompatible with reality, and cannot exist without historical revisionism.

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

SPOILER ALERT: The super-rich don't leave when you tax them, because they can afford to stay where they are. They just tell you they'll leave to stop you raising their taxes.

"i asked grok" "i asked chatgpt" yeah well i asked carl sagan and he said the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge 🧪

BREAKING NEWS: We just secured a final court order blocking National Guard deployment!

Today's ruling is a huge victory for Oregon. The courts are holding this administration accountable to the truth and the rule of law.

It shouldn’t be forgotten that a big piece of Mamdani’s campaign was simply “cities are cool and lots of people enjoy living in them” which in and of itself dismantles alot of rightwing talking points

I wrote about low wages in statehouses back in 2021 for @19thnews.org. The piece begins with the story of a state lawmaker who decided not to run again because she estimated her health insurance premiums cost more than her pay in the legislature. 19thnews.org/2021/11/stat...

This is disability visibility.

Mamdani listened. He didn’t pander or talk over the disabled journalist.

He acknowledged his concerns and gave real responses about how he plans to fix them.

1 in 4 Americans has a disability, it’s a huge number of voters.

Don’t ignore us!

Important lesson

Post 2024 polls show Harris campaigning with Cheney decreased enthusiasm by 7%

Post 2025 polls show Mamdani running as unapologetic progressive earned him 9% of MAGA 2024 voters

Corporate Dems: You dont flip votes by compromising your values—but by unapologetically embracing them

The move here for democrats is to make this the campaign ad for every single election but then also actually make it come true

KEY PART

A bright yellow Katie Wilson campaign graphic that reads: it's a nail biter folks! today King county elections dropped 36,566 newly counted ballots. we won about 52% of today's drop! King county is counting ballots much more slowly than normal this year, so we didn't quite see the bump we were hoping for today. but it's still good news. there are still about 100,000 ballots to be counted. Make sure yours is counted at the link in bio. we're going to need every single one. this is your city!

Check the status of your ballot and sign up to help cure ballots at the link in our bio! #thisisyourcity

My ballot was counted this year, but in a previous election is was rejected and I had to fix it — just took a couple of minutes. Make sure yours was counted Seattle! info.kingcounty.gov/kcelections/...

McConnell orders the government to fully fund SNAP benefits for November immediately via TRO—written order to come.

Any motion for a stay is denied. The Court will stand adjourned.

Wow.

If you're going to make a post praising an incredible news photo, it's a real bad look when you don't include the photographer credit in the post.

A tweet from user @llcoolj says "Don't call it that," in response to a Merriam-Webster definition about the term "come back."

We been here for years (1828).

Word. Aldi's has a deal to feed 10 for $40. The Target deal is 4 for $20. Not only is Aldi's better financially, it's not run by simpering ring-kissers.

Republicans still refuse to swear her in because she is the final vote needed to release the Epstein Files.
