White tears Brown Scars by Ruby Hamad

This International Women’s Day, I’m reminded that the origins of this day are socialist & built on the protests for better working conditions.
It’s also good to unpack our white/ selective feminism. Unlearn what we’ve been taught & fight for all women.

I've heard there's a meeting for @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social tomorrow. Hopefully they're planning on responding to this in more earnest than their email this morning.

He’s golfing after bombing children and raising your gas prices.

Evidence is already unraveling Trump’s story

When asked about the Minab school strike, Trump said it was Iran’s missile.

But evidence points the other way. Investigators say a US strike aimed at a nearby Revolutionary Guard site likely hit a girls’ elementary school instead.

ICYMI — Trump lied.

(From @bluegeorgia.bsky.social )

Skyrocketing gas prices while he builds a golden ballroom and mows down schoolgirls. Truly America’s golden age.

Anyone who thinks oil is coming down in price for years is fooling themselves. The US is taking out a major oil producer. Who's making money from this? Oil companies

When are we going to stop oil wars?

Get ready for gas prices to be really high for a decade, at least

I'm going to stay home, more

The things the Trump admin did in the name of efficiency don't seem very efficient.

The orange felon made sure to lower US flags to half-staff for fascist propagandist podcaster Charlie Kirk but not for civil rights icon Reverend Jesse Jackson or the 6 soldiers he killed with his war in Iran.

Christian Nationalism is NOT Christianity, but it is a national security threat.

📌 The Military Religious Freedom Foundation says it has received over 200 complaints that troops are being told war with Iran is meant to accelerate “Armageddon.”

Overheard

Works for me…

Well she still married him after she knew he was a child rapist. What could have turned her away since?

Is the woman behind him holding her nose/breath?

What's it going to take for Congress to realize that we can't take 3 more years of this

Americans today will spend nearly $200 million more on gas than they did just 7 days ago.

Thanks, Donald Trump!

I don’t know about you but I think the qualifications for being a president needs an overhaul. I’m so tired of all this 🐂💩

In a hotel room, a brick wall that has obviously had a huge hole repaired

Pretty sure the Kool-Aid man stayed in this hotel room once

Amazing how much damage one malignant narcissist can cause.

Nobody knows for certain how Trump’s War on Iran will play out or end.

The only thing we know for certain is that Trump will declare victory no matter what happens.

All of this 250th anniversary of the United States talk has me pretty sad, because celebrations or not I know we almost made it 250 years. The celebrations are a farce. Our Constitution is no longer in effect.

Of course this is all a grift for Trump to make money and was never about celebrating America. www.notus.org/donald-trump...

Yes, World, It's Worse in America Than You Think Earlier this week, a friend from Australia sent me a text.

This is a Constitutional crisis, and it’s a family emergency.

We’re wondering what happened to our nation, and to people we once loved and respected; to our parents, grandparents, siblings, neighbors, and best friends...

The difference between the spike in global oil prices now versus 2022 is that this time the US president single-handedly caused it to happen overnight with a policy while accepting no responsibility, while the US president in 2022 was blamed for it even though he didn’t cause it.

A year ago we were supposed to be getting $2,000 rebate checks, DOGE was going to find $2 trillion in waste to balance the budget, we were going to pay no income taxes because tariffs would pay for everything, gas and home electric bills would be cut in half, and no new wars.
