From the LL comments: 
At the end of my kid’s school day they announced that if the Mariners won tonight, they’d have a non-uniform day tomorrow. Her and her friends all planned to wear their M’s shirts tomorrow.

When the game ended, she went to get her shirt, but was bummed to find out that all of them were too small, so she went to bed thinking she wouldn’t have anything to wear tomorrow. I spent the last 2 hours going all over town, to 4 stores, before finally finding a shirt that should fit her at Target. It’s going to be like Christmas morning tomorrow for her.

So excited to see kids getting to enjoy this special team and season (something parents my age probably never got/don’t remember as kids!)

On a night of shirt stories this one really got me

Then learn how to form a question. You didn’t ask about *anything. You made a statement and the logical assumption is that you believe it.

But the Democrats won’t fight back for justice (they way they should). They’ll ask you to vote harder and then ask you for money.

If i had to sum up what’s wrong w Democratic leadership in one solitary figure, it woukd be Senator Schumer launching a book that equates antisemitism w anti-Zionism the same week he caves to Trump over the budget — these are not contradictions but expressions of an identical liberal imperialism

Supporting Palestine does not necessarily mean being “pro-Hamas.” It does not make one a “terrorist.” The true terrorists in this scenario are the US and Israeli governments. www.democracynow.org/2025/3/11/no...

Maybe not as individual human beings, but joining a force that exists for the imperialist American project makes them bad, collectively.

Taking orders from an apartheid loving South African ex-pat with a yen for eugenics, is really just the GOP of my youth in its final form. Except everyone involved is just really stupider.

🥣 If you throw together a sancocho of chisme, snacks & juegos, you get an HORCHATAZO, which is our neighborhood-based Defend Your Rights training. ☀️ Full how-to video at tiny.cc/horchatazo & how-to manual in the Community Defense Hub (link in bio) #defendandrecruit

I would add that it’s white liberals. Socialists, white or otherwise, understand that this one day event is not enough. If it gets people to participate in a more meaningful way going forward, i.e. joining a revolutionary socialist organization, then it will be worthwhile.

Correct. They’re union busters and genocide supporters. Vile.

In my spare time I like to torture mushrooms from the Lactarius (milk cap) genus.🍄

Jokes aside, Lactarius are a pretty good group to study for beginners.
