They literally ruin everything they touch

Almost any, for me: mustard, honey, honey mustard, spicy chile, tartar, malt vinegar, barbecue,...

ooh! a bleu cheese sauce would be awesome!

The most popular candidate is a socialist in a time where fascism is sweeping the nation. He represents politics and policies that have felt completely impossible. And his wild popularity has inspired the country and created hope where none existed. That’s why.

There are people who say “I would sell my soul to write a book that good” who aren’t willing to write the four or five shitty books that stand between them and the good one.

They hanged the people who got us the 8-hour workday.

Doesn't this look freakishly familiar to Barack Obama and Donald Trump both cracking down harder on whistleblowers than on actual war crimes and corruption?

Food is too expensive, controlled by billionaires.
Energy is too expensive, controlled by billionaires.
Housing is too expensive, controlled by billionaires.
Wages are too low, controlled by billionaires.

I'm going to blame... immigrants.

I'm going to start a new political party. It's called Shut The Fuck Up and Feed People.

"But what if they're on drugs?"

Shut The Fuck Up And Feed People

"Or not really THAT poor?"

Shut The Fuck Up And Feed People

"What if they have a phone and nice nails?"

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND FEED PEOPLE

Hit me up with your food bank / mutual aid fundraiser links and I’ll try and boost them.

We’re all we’ve got, and everything we need.

It is absurd and callous that our friend here is labeled as a spam account.

It would be nice to help her get some traction again.

A spam bot wouldn't text me back in a kind and very human way

REMINDER: Important Update (read whole thread)

I have been notified that legal proceedings have been initiated against me in the EU. I am not currently in the EU — and, given the circumstances, I believe this action may be intended to intimidate or cause harm to my family living there.

Sarah and Fadi among 104 Palestinians killed in overnight Israeli airstrikes on Gaza.

Twin siblings Sham and Yahya Abu Dalal and their parents killed overnight as Israeli airstrikes hit a home in Al-Nuseirat, central Gaza.

Over two dozen states are suing the USDA for refusing to use SNAP contingency funds during the shutdown, affecting 42 million families.

The coalition includes: AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, KS, KY, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, NV, NJ, NM, NY, NC, OR, PA, RI, VT, WA, WI

The people who think the government should be run like a business are killing something that has a 180% ROI. THAT is how you bankrupt a casino.

it’s not a government shutdown if the cops and the military are still working … it’s a coup

A judge has dismissed all charges against the man, Phillip Brown, 33. 2/

Whoa!

Government doesn’t exist to funnel money away from the majority into the hands of the elite. This is a disturbingly normalized perversion and must be violently opposed.

We have to keep our eye on outcomes, not promises. False hope in reforming this capitalist superstructure has impeded progress for decades.

There’s no point to preserving the government if it isn’t serving and improving the lives of the majority of its people.
That’s the whole purpose of societal structure.

Need at least $150 by the 31st.

Anything helps.

$60/500

Viewed from this light, the most important moment preserving Nixonian reaction was when Carter kept the drug war laws and sweeping anti-left tax code changes around. Reagan's destruction, the type that defines all those graphs, was entrenched and expanded under Clinton...

An understated reason figures like Newsom are so dangerous is because what really advances the most violently reactionary parts of the American state aren't just the openly far-right rulers, it's their successors entrenching what they did. Newsom types aren't an end to fascism but its completion. 🧵

Both FG and FF had planned to run candidates fully supporting their moves to integrate Ireland into EU defence arrangements: Gavin and McGuinness.

One or other would win.

They would then claim to have a popular mandate.

The opposite has happened.

I wish they said explicitly that there's $5 billion in emergency reserves they're refusing to use instead they're happy to let people - mostly children, the disabled, and elderly, starve.

5. Setting an example matters. Is it "performative" to tell people you donated/volunteered? Sure. But that performance inspires others. I did a match b/c of @adapalmer.bsky.social; others donated b/c of that. At least one person matched one of THOSE donations. Kindness, like courage, is contagious.
