there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.

This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

The other macaques have started to accept him!!

My optometrist said probably next year for me 🥲

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

It just really lays bare how lonely and self-centered fascism is that they see a community rallying not just for common defense but to meet one another's needs, with those who can provide stepping up for those who can't, and they go "what the fuck, this has to be illegal"

I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad

We will live to see justice.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Beautiful message about the hundreds of thousands of people saved from Hitler.

Resisting fascism isn't always a coordinated disruption: it's small acts of courage in spontaneous moments.

Right person, right time, right place - to do what's right.

These are concentration camps. And these are the numbers they're comfortable sharing.

Precisely.

Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911

"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

Also, this headline only makes sense if your baseline assumption is that men someone own or are the basic units of the "workplace." This would be historically inaccurate given most of our species' history working alongside each other before a tiny sliver adopted separate spheres for like 100 years

Women are dying of sepsis after being denied abortions. A conservative sect that wants to repeal women’s voting rights is growing and gaining national attention. *This* is the NYT’s contribution to conversations about women?

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

Has anyone checked in on Debra Messing

Hope is possible.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

This is Drake’s fault

Why Did These Authors Have Their School Visit Canceled? They Were Talking About Their Book About Book Bans. Country Club Elementary School in California's Bay Area canceled an author visit moments before it began. Why? It covered book bans.

If you and your children are not ready for a particular book, that is okay. It is not okay to limit the access to books, stories, and experiences for other families. Every book is not for everyone, but every book is for someone.

Here is a comprehensive list of why people on SNAP, are on SNAP:
1. They need food assistance.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Imagine being an indentured servant because that's what teachers in Alberta now are.

Anyway, a friend of mine is a teacher, and they are actively looking for another job. Expect a lot of retirements and stress leaves in the coming weeks. #ableg #abpoli

I cannot stress this strongly enough: Support your local theatre, café, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them. They need us, and more importantly, we need them.

Door Knocking with Ashley Salvador in Delton Get ready to hit the streets and show support for ward Metis' most bike-friendly candidate!

There has been a ton of pushback on bike lanes in Delton, but we know that those loud voices are a minority of the community.

Come out and help us find the people that #yegbike!

I want my tax dollars to fund cost of living indexed teacher pay, appropriate student to teacher ratios, new schools with funded staff & covid shots for educators & staff.

Much of the $ can be found in Smith’s sideshow pandering to groups she needs to maintain leadership.
