the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none.

I’m so very tired of panic buying because senile Satan is running this country into the ground. The constant uncertainty in this collapse is wearing me out.

We did this last spring.
I still have that 20lb. bag of rice.

teewatterss on Threads: “losing an hour on international women's day feeling very 75 cents on the dollar”

10/10 take. no notes

maybe I'm focusing on the wrong thing here but this is the wildest shit I've ever heard a white South African say and I study racism for a living

As this was happening you were told shoplifting and home invasions were grave threats you needed to abandon any pretense of sympathy to address.

Yesssssssssssssss. Make it stop.

Maybe people will wake up to the fact that the AI push has been about paying workers even less and taking away job security.

Less "prompt engineering" and more labor organizing.

It helps that he’s on his deathbed. Yes, clinical sorcery keeps dragging him back to life, but when the reaper collects and everything is still shit, people will wake up and rise up.

Vance doesn’t have the range. He has the charisma of a rock, and we’re all Elmo.

— this is me being hopeful

More like another weekend of clinical sorcery keeping him upright. For now.

He’s not wrong.

Holy shit

We let kids be infected with an organ- and immune system-damaging virus over and over with no end in sight, and don’t demand clean indoor air, improved vaccines, and mask mandates. And all because billionaires prioritized the economy & dictated policy & people were selfish & shortsighted. #COVID

You know you’re at a Black funeral when:

A brown penguin chick of some kind. It looks very much like a man in a suit. It is bedraggled and miserable

Made it to Friday but at what cost

He was golfing every weekend in his first term. Noticeable decline in his golfing weekends and health.

I’m loving Eric Benét’s second act. There was so much hilarity behind those ballads. Who knew? Now he’s got quick, spot-on cultural takes and, apparently, new music. 😆

More than likely.

When they’re not busy pillaging and embezzling, they’re sabotaging. Stealing the country blind. By the time we account for the damages, the entire system will have collapsed.

Exclusive: US investigation points to likely US responsibility in Iran school strike, sources say U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school that killed scores of children on Saturday but have not yet reache...

My Long Covid came from an infection acquired in a doctor’s office.

Healthcare settings are deadly now.

How is everyone so fucking ok with this???

And yet people get on this site every day and call people like me childish "accelerationists" and "revolutionaries" for telling them we (Black people in particular) cannot vote our way out of this.

Objective present reality and successive centuries of murder be damned, I guess.

i hope everyone is remembering to take solace in the fact that even if things Bad they will not be Bad Forever because the people in charge are just unbelievably stupid

AOC: We already have multiple American service members who are dead for an illegal action that the president has pursued with no plan out. They don’t know why they got into this war. They’re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they don’t know how they’re getting out.

I’m with the woman recording this video — not a single one of his fellow servicemen or women looked back.

Their refusal to look back was like a scene from Pluribus. Hive mind, but Trump is the central consciousness. Yikes.

Thoughts & prayers to the EPA :(

Stop fighting. It’s time.
Just let them take you.

Our ministry of lies is also warring with reality.

This has really been on my mind lately. GLP-1s are surfacing. a pathology that has always been there. And now some women are out here looking whatever is well past gaunt. Their skin is stretched over sharp bone and no they shouldn’t be criticized for it but we can’t pretend we don’t see it!

"it always resonated in terms of it being a story about a community that is infiltrated, a vibrant community, a vibrant self-sustaining community.

What happens when that community is infiltrated? And from that standpoint, it felt very, very, very contemporary to me."
