Nobody tell Carmela Soprano about this guy.

I'm just going to leave this here... 😂

When you find yourself getting ratio'd like this its time to consider whether your hot take was truly thought-out. Maybe ponder the path that led you to this point.

I think people get so used to associating the prize with figures like Martin Luther King and Nelson they forget that the Nobel committee also gave it to Obama for doing pretty much nothing, as well as to Henry Kissinger despite him running a secret war in Cambodia.

Venezuela’s Opposition Used UN Meeting to Lobby for US Coup | Common Dreams ​The opposition’s proposed total economic surrender to US corporate interests would doom Venezuela to the same conditions that led to Chavez’s rise to power.

Please, stop making María Corina Machado out to be some kind of hero. She's a far right neoliberal shill who wants to privatize Venezuela's entire economy, especially its oil, and just dedicated her Nobel prize to Donald Trump.

It's not really that hard to explain. Just look at how Nazis can believe that Jews are weak and pathetic while still being powerful enough to control entire nations from behind the scenes. Sure, it doesn't make sense, but they don't need it to.

Also, why the hell are federal agents in Memphis handing out traffic citations?

If you find yourself getting upset by the idea of a foreign military base on US soil, just remember that the United States has military bases all over the world in countries where most people aren't happy to have them there.

Poor guy. Macron must really have leaned on him hard to get him to take back his resignation.

As if that didn't already happen when they gave it to Henry fucking Kissinger.

When I texted a man from Gaza to congratulate him on the cease-fire, he replied, "Congratulations to you. You'll put your mind at peace with our news now!' His words cut through the noise - a reminder that for many Palestinians, even relief has become something that belongs to others.

@mostmoralpod.bsky.social @mattlieb.bsky.social you might find this amusing.

Let's unite against billionaires, says the guy funded by Miriam Adelson. Did he think no one would notice?

Dem darling showered with Miriam Adelson-linked money A group funded by Adelson was the biggest donor to James Talarico’s campaign last year.

Anyone notice how the Charlie Kirk shooter, and the Mormon church shooter have disappeared from the mass media once it became clear that their actions could not be attributed to "the left", or to incitement from "the left"?!

They tried to rule it out of order ahead of Convention, but we forced it back onto the floor.

They tried to cut off debate. We beat that.

They tried to amend it. We beat that.

They tried to call quorum and deny us a vote. We beat that too!

We won.

But we don't need him! WFSE Convention 2025 delegates just beat procedural shenanigans and the opposition of both WFSE and AFSCME leadership to pass a Gaza solidarity resolution this weekend! WHEN WE FIGHT WE WIN!

Seeing breadcrumbs here and there about how bluesky has begun its first steps toward enshittification, what's that about?

In an organization like WFSE most of the important decisions are made at convention every two years. But he wouldn't even answer the question of whether there was anything that could be done in between. He doesn't think it's his job.

AFSCME members demand leadership to call for an end to genocide and occupation in Palestine Join fellow AFSCME rank-and-file members and staff across the US to demand that AFSCME end its complicity in long-standing U.S.- Israeli imperialism in Palestine and in the current genocide of Gazans....

I spoke to Lee Saunders at the WFSE Convention yesterday and was disappointed at how utterly uninterested he was in doing anything about Gaza. I hope this puts some pressure on him. #Gaza #genocide #Palestine @afscme.bsky.social @wfse.org #wfse

Conservative bureaucracy is the worst. On the one hand they give procedural reasons why there's nothing anyone can do. On the other hand it's clear they wouldn't do anything even if they could.

Google Calls ICE Agents a Vulnerable Group, Removes ICE-Spotting App ‘Red Dot’ The move comes as Apple removed ICEBlock after direct pressure from U.S. Department of Justice officials and signals a broader crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.

Google has determined that ICE agents are a vulnerable group and has used this designation as pretext to delete an app that helped communities determine where ICE raids were happening

The Bar Association episode of DS9 just hits harder now that I'm a union member. That DS9 is the best Star Trek show is a hill I will gladly die on.

for those of y'all not as plugged in to labor, the NLRB ordering union recognition is like the nuclear option for a board that otherwise can't do very much

I honestly thought this was a Needling headline.
