Yeah, absolutely I believe 100% that society will collapse within 20 years. That's why my life plan is:
1) live in a big city
2) specialize in white collar or artistic work
3) cultivate 0 practical skills

He really said "I love your spirit, but also people should own homes. Mmhmm, that's a good point you make, but also hoarding real estate costs people lives. Yeah, the snow is beautiful but you know what else is beautiful? Having a roof between you and it."

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK 
JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS.
WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK.
AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE.
SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS.
THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES.
IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

Also, do not stop calling your lawmakers to protect #Section230. Call them everyday, because many LGBTQ+ youths need the internet to survive this cruel world that views their existence as undesirable. Repealing it is part of Project 2025.

the question really breaks my heart. without economic impact, are y'all meaningfully opposing the regime?

for me, it's been tj maxx, ross, pharmacies, ace, & ebay, tho i see an argument for alibaba/shein/etc. the only time i've missed amazon was holiday gifts (for the order-wrap-ship convenience)

Let this be a reminder that, no, you cannot trust any corporation with your biometric data, this will be the end result of that.

i recently listened to a pod about the struggles of gig workers in china that revolved around an author who, in his late 40s, had had 19 jobs.

it didn't sound excessive, so i counted mine. y'all. is that a lot of jobs to have had? anyhow, job 19.

A multicolored quilt made of of scraps with the words WE KNOW WHAT WE SAW staggered down it with a large beautiful eye centered between the words. The eye has a rainbow camera aperture as the iris. It is quilted densely.

Another resistance quilt finished this week. The eye is my own design, the letters are a fpp pattern by QuiltByNight, the rounded corners and black binding are meant to resemble the phones we the people are using to document the horrors and disprove the government’s lies about what they are doing.

Your doomposts do not impress me. They do not make me laugh. They do not make me feel like you are on my side.

If you wanna curl up into a ball and die, go do it on your own time, and keep it to yourself. I want to interact with people willing to put in the work to fight.

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

The murder of Renee Good β€”& the way the Administration is smearing her β€”is reminiscent of the murder of Viola Liuzzo, a white Detroit mother killed by the KKK while driving marchers home after the Selma to Montgomery march. The FBI had an informant in the Klan car.

ICE surveillance is directly connected to ICE violence. One of the most concrete things that progressive leaders can do in cities targeted by ICE is work to roll back surveillance ASAP:

-Cancel contracts with Flock
-Ban facial recognition
-End private camera registries
-Data privacy protections

Rep. Kelly announces plans to impeach Secretary Kristi Noem WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) announced plans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem following the fatal shooting by an ICE officer in Minneapolis.

I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...
