one mention of covid and mfs are ready to jump ship because they're "so tired of hearing about it" as if millions aren't tired of watching y'all spread it over + over.

Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesn’t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking

It’s not just who’s on the ballot, but what’s on the ballot.

The broken politics of the past or a future we can afford.

It’s debate time. Let’s go.

More than 170 US citizens have been held by immigration agents ProPublica uncovered that Americans have been kicked, dragged, and detained for days.

Videos of US citizens being mistreated by immigration agents have filled social media, but there is little clarity on the overall picture. The government doesn't track how often immigration agents hold Americans.

So @propublica.org created its own count.

The mindless millions believe that the pandemic of Covid-19 is over.

The mindless millions believe that Covid-19 is a "mild" disease.

The mindless millions believe that wearing a respirator mask is not necessary.

The mindless millions are completely wrong on all counts.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Your leaders want you to accept uncontrolled Covid-19.

Your leaders want you to accept negligence and denial.

Your leaders want you to accept repeated infections.

Your leaders want you to accept mass illness and excess mortality.

Your leaders want you to accept collective destruction.

A Nobel Peace Prize for MarΓ­a Corina Machado? You mean the same far-right figure who cheered a coup, begged Netanyahu for β€œhelp,” and backed sanctions starving her own people?
If this is β€œpeace,” then the word has lost all meaning.

Loving the best boy in the world has been a joy these last ten years. Bruno was a light in the dark. His kisses were stinky & slobbery & his love for me & my wife was like no love either of us have ever known. He crossed the rainbow bridge 🌈 this morning & we are heartbroken. @mo3nyc.bsky.social

Years ago, scientists warned us that Covid would create an "unfathomable" crisis of longterm illness that included diseases not typically diagnosed as "Long Covid." Now a fight over exploding healthcare costs has shut down the government. These two things are connected.

It's antisemitic

And don't share this because it makes you one too.
