The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

Families on SNAP worry about not just feeding themselves but also their pets With SNAP benefits going out late, nonprofits are begging for pet food donations to prevent desperate owners from surrendering their dogs and cats to animal shelters.

i was also struck by how many people receiving SNAP are employees of wal-mart and other big corporations. almost seems like we taxpayers are subsidizing private companies 🤔

A grey pitbull uses her generous tongue to slurp a ramen noodle

A pitbull makes a funny wide eyed face as she inhales a noodle

The very same pitbull stares admiringly at the noodle she is inhaling

As the noodle comes to an end, the pitbull’s remarkable tongue extends to catch the last of it

Everything sucks so here is my dog eating ramen. 🍜

Shots fired at immigration agents in Little Village as residents confront Bovino, Border Patrol, authorities say Community members once again confronted a convoy of Border Patrol agents led by Cmdr. Gregory Bovino as it moved through Chicago’s South Side neighborhoods.

Bovino went into popular Carniceria Aguascalientes in heart of Little Village.
“They said they were just here to buy something,” said Elizabeth Gutierrez. “I told them we wouldn’t serve them and escorted them out. Bovino seemed upset, but I don’t care.” www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/08/c...

Tactical Breach Wizards was a delight. Some really great character work in there, and a lovely dry wit to the dialogue.

if the death note existed irl it would inevitably fall into the hands of some cop-brained weapons-grade loser like light yagami who thinks "eliminating criminals" is the path to a virtuous society.

note: not me tho. i would be responsible with the death note.

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

Announcing the EIGHTH Annual Weird Christmas Flash Fiction ConThology! Yes, the (non) contest is alive, and, yes, it’s late. It’s been a rough year, and I’ve lost a lot of the time for REAL work because of all that half-ass work that actually pays. I had to figure out…

Got writers or editors in your feed? Please consider reposting my writing contest/anthology (ConThology!!!!) [it's only nominally a contest because I like to make things complicated]. It's strange, seasonal, anti-seasonal, and fun af.

Read something besides the internet before you seek to review media

Threads post with a photo of angry Oscar Isaac: me loving every minute of Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein only to realize at the end it didn’t pass the Bechdel test

*whispers* It is a faithful adaptation of an early 1800s novel by a woman about an arrogant self centered man

Why are people

oh man

every sunday, from pulpits in megachurches across america, white evangelicals cry out about some imaginary persecution of christianity. but i can’t stop thinking about the pile of rosaries collected by a janitor at a border crossing or the priest turned away at the gates of the detention camp.

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"

One thing that strikes me is just how fake all of our problems related to government are

The filibuster isn't in the Constitution, and every single Framer would be apoplectic that it exists.

The government shutdown was invented in 1980

The 9-justices limit was invented to stop the New Deal

There should be a German word for white men who cannot conceive of possibility they'll be held accountable for their own actions.
