If Black women say an album or some part of pop culture contains racist dog whistles, it does. End of story - listen to them and choose better celebrities to elevate

Bluesky is a mystery novel that you are reading for the second time.

It means you can work a low stress part time job and still have time and energy for art. I mean are we complaining that it's not good enough?

A friend had a big professional win (passed a certification exam that would've cost $1200 to retake). She got home & walked in the door w/ a giant grin. Her husband saw her face & said, full of hope, "Is he dead?"

Which kind of took the joy out of her good news, b/c she had to say, "No, but..."

Doable and worth it, and also a lot more work than someone who hasn't tried to do it is likely to believe.

Especially when a substantial number of the people you need to work with won't support you at crucial moments, like, say, presidential elections.

A resident of a nearby building asks a very important question:

“You claim you have warrants, but do you have a warrant to seize the entire building?” she asked the agents. “Do you have warrants to detain the entire building?”

Or: do people lose their rights if they live near undocumented people?

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek just took back control of the national guard.

She is sending the Oregon national Guard back home and is directing the California national guard to leave the State.

We already know the answer to that. See the murders in the Caribbean.

Most "general strike" bros couldn't get their 3 closest friends to show up at a bar at the same time. Gotta start with attainable goals.

WHY IS EVERYONE BEING BLESSED BY THE FROG BUT ME!?

Were going to be at this for three more years at a minimum no matter what happens in the midterms, you have build a movement with boots on the ground and it takes a lot of time and a lot of work.

Tell me about it. I'm going to refrain from the rant because you already know.

Map of the U.S. with dots for each of the 500 health facilities closing or at risk of closing.

500 hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics are now closing or at risk of closure because of the Republican bill that guts health care funding, per @protectourcare.org.

Just heard someone say that if you aren't willing to get arrested or die at a protest you aren't serious about the cause and that's a) not true and b) not helpful

You don't need to have a death wish to fight for a better world, and anyone who says you do is throwing up a massive red flag

You may not know this but peeps are one of the few union made candies. Eat more peeps.

They should try to organize a couple of thousand normal people to strike for wages in a clear cut union contract bargaining situation before assuming that we can persuade an an entire nation to walk off the job by posting about it really hard.

Critics of Trump’s immigration crackdown are using the term ‘Kavanaugh stop.’ Here’s what it means. - The Boston Globe The phrase, is "a window into where [the administration] can go next," some advocates say.

They said on-line isn’t real life, and Bluesky is a niche social media site.

But here is @akalhan.bsky.social getting “Kavanaugh Stops” into the Boston Globe!

With a pic of Kav looking a little petulant too (but then when doesn’t he?).

Glad to see this is sticking to him.

Will the welfare package for the farmers make them pass a drug test to get the $? Will there be restrictions on what they can spend it on? Can they buy soda and sugary snacks? Beer?

They brought him in to post a video, so he's not gonna not post a video. It's his chance to leg hump, he's not going to screw it up.

I love the idea of a rooftop filled with fully armed and terrified ice troops and 11 stoners standing around outside the gate singing songs and figuring who’s picking up pizza tonight.

What complete losers.

I’m proud of us. I hope we keep it going. I also hope we see more costumes it really drives home the farce of it (and fascists hate humor).

Anyone who says you do needs to explain how they're able to post from jail/the afterlife.

Please do whatever you can, even if it's small. Every little bit helps

There are so many mundane things that NEED to be done that aren't chaining yourself to a fence and getting pepper sprayed.
- buying cases of bottled water and snacks for protestors
- making copies of "know your rights" cards
- taking care of their pets/kids while they're at the protest

How many? 400? Versus over two million Chicago residents.
Organize crowds to laugh at them and point fingers. Have a carnival in front of them. Dance & make merry.

Yell NO DEEP DISH PIZZA FOR YOU!! OR feed them some.

That might work really well. 🤔🤔🤔
