Shouts to anyone who lost someone close to them in 2024. You're keeping their memory alive by keeping them in your thoughts daily and in return, they are lending you strength to continue on. We're gonna be okay.

When the Feds Are Still Watching Former Black Panthers fear the FBI is still keeping tabs on them decades after COINTELPRO. In at least one case, they were right.

For years, former Black Panthers have feared that the FBI is still keeping tabs on them decades after its notorious COINTELPRO program.

I can't emphasize enough how dangerous it is that Louisiana health officials are stopping staff from promoting vaccines at the very same time that the first severe case of US bird flu was found in the same state.

The fact that we are four years into the pandemic and it never even came up in this campaign like…COVID really truly broke some brains and our collective unwillingness to acknowledge it by trying to force pre-COVID normalcy is just splintering us further.

Please bear in mind that when you’re ordering those last minute gifts that can arrive at your doorstep in lightning speed, someone in a warehouse is working nonstop in subpar conditions w/ barely any time to eat or use the bathroom bc they have to hit a corporate quota.

Cop unions aren’t real unions and have no class solidarity. They are servants of the ruling class.
