Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

I can't stress enough that you should take every opportunity that comes your way to support your local public libraries. Many of them are currently struggling and are being DEFUNDED. Local action matters on this front. Don't sit back until those libraries are gone before taking ACTION.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

"Don't follow illegal orders" would be more meaningful if Democrats had prosecuted literally any of the prominent war criminals of the last 30 years instead of, you know, fucking campaigning with them

RFK Jr. is a menace to public health and the health of American kids.

It continues to bother me how much Leopold II, one of the most evil men of all time and a ghoul on par with Hitler, is so completely ignored

It is not in fact smart analysis to talk about American power dynamics as if any POC who isn’t Black is functionally a white person

Heavy winter storms flooded Gaza’s tent camps on Friday, collapsing shelters and soaking families already displaced by Israel’s war. Streets in Gaza City turned into rivers of mud and rubble as rain poured into makeshift tents. Parents described children waking up drenched with no dry clothes, food, or protection. Civil Defense reported widespread distress calls across Gaza City, Deir al-Balah, and Nuseirat. The UN says nearly 1.5 million people need emergency shelter, yet Israel continues to block tents, caravans, and other shelter aid in violation of the ceasefire. Hospitals also flooded, forcing staff to evacuate malnourished children to higher floors. The full report by @AbdSabbah91 in Gaza and @sharifkouddous is linked below. 🎥 Footage by @AbdSabbah91

Private equity firm Sycamore Partners bought Walgreens.

Now Walgreens has stopped giving most workers paid vacation on Thanksgiving, Christmas and other major holidays.

Private equity takeovers are a disaster for workers, and customers.

Palestinians in Gaza were flooded last night after intense rainfall entered tents and entered destroyed homes. Israel continues to block reconstruction and is still demolishing more buildings during this so called ‘ceasefire.’
