Joyce Carol Oates @Joyce... 17h O So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."

Elon Musk ' @elonmusk X.com Oates is a liar and delights in being mean. Not a good human.

lol she got his ass and he knows it

Don’t Stream Fascism: Cancel Spotify

It's outrageous that Spotify is running ICE ads. I'm moving to another streaming platform that doesn't profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE. #CancelSpotify app.sosha.ai/s/Qbwb6xIP

Don’t Stream Fascism: Cancel Spotify

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE, the federal agency behind mass deportation and surveillance of immigrant communities. Cancel your Spotify subscription. #DontStreamFascism app.sosha.ai/s/mFR3SiA3

Trump defies court order
Will not pay SNAP BENEFITS UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT REOPENS

Fighting for the future we want starts with voting. NJ, Va and so many cities and localities have big elections today -like NY,Boston, Cleveland and Toledo .

Please don’t give away your voice. It matters. Please Vote

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

It is a choice to give Argentina a $40 billion bailout

It is a choice to use ICE in a way which terrorizes US citizens

It is a choice to tear down the East Wing of the White House and spend $350 million on a ballroom

Just as it is a choice to starve 42 million Americans by refusing to fund SNAP

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

On this day in queer history (1955):

The Village Voice launched in NYC. For decades, it became a vital space for queer reporting, nightlife, politics, and culture—telling LGBTQ stories when mainstream media refused to.

Hey California, we need your help! Talk to your neighbors about passing Prop 50 to unrig the midterm maps. As Trump and his GOP allies try to grab permanent control of the House, California has a key role to play in leveling the playing field — and our tool makes it easy to talk to your neighbors. 👇

Beautiful.

Donald Trump’s America

So far, only 2.2 million ballots have been received regarding Prop 50.
Please circle back with your California crew and remind them to mail those ballots in, NO POSTAGE REQUIRED!!!!

TIME IS SHORT!!!!

‘Everything Is Gone’: Gazans Return Home to Find Devastation and Little Hope

Gaza has 2.2 million people. In 2 years, 10% of the population has been killed or wounded. Their entire infrastructure has been destroyed. 

Instead of giving more military aid to Netanyahu’s extremist government, the US must work with the international community to rebuild Gaza.

At Oakland #NoKings, I asked Justin here if, as a Black man, he had particular concerns w the Trump admin's actions. Loved his answer.

Republicans in Congress have capitulated to trump. The Supreme Court republicans have capitulated to trump. We the People have NOT capitulated. We the People will stand up tomorrow to declare “No Kings”. We the People stood up in 1776 and we will again.

Price increases for "things" under Donald Trump:

Coffee is up 26%
Baby strollers are up 25%
Beef is up 14%
School supplies are up 7%
Electricity is up 5%

Car prices are at a RECORD high.

And thanks to Republicans in Congress, health insurance premiums are about to DOUBLE.

“I really don’t want us to grow up in a country where a kid telling a stupid joke telling a very offensive stupid joke is cause to ruin their lives,” VP J. D. Vance 🔗 www.cnn.com/2025/10/15/p...
Do these look like kids to you? The Republican party is a hate organization.

Best in the nation. Nobody comes close.

This is our time. This is our moment. This is our movement.

Oct. 18 #NoKings

One of the most inspiring days of the year for me is when I get to present the Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace and Security's annual Hillary Rodham Clinton Awards to honorees from around the world who are working to safeguard democracy, sometimes at tremendous personal risk.

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18
