I’m doing research for a project and found out about the “don’t buy where you can’t work” movement during the depression, where Black people boycotted and picketed places that wouldn’t hire us. Shout out to everyone who’s not going back to Target!

'Federal prosecutors opposed Dunn’s lawyers’ motion to dismiss the charge, writing that Dunn was “recorded throwing a sandwich at a federal officer at point-blank range".

POINT BLANK RANGE. A SANDWICH. LMAOOO

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

BREAKING: Democrats just tried to pass a standalone bill to fund WIC & SNAP to make sure families don't go hungry during the Republican shutdown.

Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

honestly the only piece worth reading on the platner situation. @tressiemcphd.bsky.social is absolutely cooking here. (gift link)

There is both hope and horror in this but I will take the hope.

Lots of lovely folks want to cook for neighbors, fill community fridges during SNAP shutdown but are intimidated. A mutual aid group in Flatbush, Brooklyn has been feeding 80+ people every single week for a year and a half or so now. Nobody is born knowing how to cook for 80, so here's our guide!

This is what I am talking about!!

this is asking to be hung next to a print of one of those cats from a medieval manuscript

Financial Times headline says “critics accuse” Trump of extrajudicial killings

I’m sorry, why are we using “critics accuse” language here? These are factually, unambiguously, extrajudicial killings. It’s not an opinion. It’s not a disputed or disputable claim.

The most punchable looking white dude you've ever seen standing in a full Nazi uniform in the door of a bar.

nazi arrest record showing legal name and charge for "aggregated assault"

Last night In Athens, GA, a 33 year old named Kenneth Leland Morgan was arrested for aggravated assault after dressing like a Nazi and hitting a glass over a woman's face at a bar people were forcing him out of. The only people who want to dress like Nazis for Halloween are Nazis.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

SNAP benefits expire in one week.

It takes 30 days to grow a radish. Also 2/3 of the country is already in or entering winter.

If Congress could do or say literally anything about this at all, that would be cool!

GOOD NEWS! A groundbreaking study of MORE THAN 1,000 people reveals that cancer patients who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine within 100 days of starting immunotherapy lived dramatically longer than those who didn’t. In some cases, their survival rate was DOUBLED.

Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid. Here’s What Never Arrived. ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the administration’s cut...

Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

it should be added that a lot of food at the food banks are from the dollar stores, often expired, and generally don't have nutrients or may contain lead. when you tell people they don't need SNAP, you're denying us access to fresh produce and getting foods we choose to eat. it's a damn crisis.

This Is How Much Anthropic and Cursor Spend On Amazon Web Services So, I originally planned for this to be on my premium newsletter, but decided it was better to publish on my free one so that you could all enjoy it. If you liked it, please consider subscribing to su...

Exclusive: Anthropic spent $2.66 billion on Amazon Web Services in the first three quarters of 2025, around 100% of their estimated revenue. Its costs appear to increase with their revenue, showing little path to profitability.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Mike Johnson has given the house a very very very very very very very very very long vacation because he’s worried about the Epstein files

I cannot stress enough:

If you are helping hide kids from ICE

DO NOT POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT HOW YOU ARE HELPING KIDS HIDE FROM ICE.

Especially do not describe where and how you helped kids hide from ICE under your own name from a verified account with the STREET AND TOWN!

Good Lord...

It's Asexual Awareness Week, so here's a reminder that we don't need permission to belong. You are right just the way you are, and communities are lucky to have you.

This man is toxic in every way. He needs to be ousted.

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly.

Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested.

Stay safe out there.
