more than 100 dead now from the flooding in Texas. an outrageous body count given the technology and infrastructure that should've been available to mitigate this.

Bombing for peace is like burning books to promote literacy.

Empire tries to make the people afraid.

Empire should be afraid of the people.

From @yuval_abraham on Twitter: A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since.

Hey. Focus. The Oscar-winning co-director of NO OTHER LAND was just "lynched" by settlers and abducted by IDF soldiers in the West Bank. This was witnessed first-hand by his co-director.

Rebellions are built on hope.

GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

Just a non-gentle reminder of this guy's past. People knew who he was and what he stood for. His resume was blatantly clear. Now, he is doing the same on a massive scale and with help.

Iconic cartoon with people looking at a long list of public benefits connected with climate action, asking “What if it’s a big hoax and we create a better world for nothing?”

15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner. Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

We are fighting like hell to stop Musk’s staffers. They come into our buildings, forcibly removing us with the FBI, U.S. Marshals, and police. This coup must be stopped.

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

PRESIDENT TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER GUTTING INSTITUTE OF MUSEUM & LIBRARY SERVICES By eliminating the only federal agency dedicated to funding library services, the Trump administrations executive order is cutting off at the knees the most beloved and trusted American institutions and the staff and services they offer. show up FOR OUR LIBRARIES American Association

Call, email Congress! Help libraries & museums! We need you 💛

Everything is tied back to disability. When people are dehumanized, many do what they can to tie it to disability somehow and make it so that they don't get treated with decency. "That person is mentally ill." "They are lazy." "They're stupid." By fighting ableism, you're fighting dehumanization.

Lefties.

Your activism can’t just be online or even just “in the streets” at like, protests.

Trans women transferred to men’s prisons despite rulings against Trump’s order Incarcerated trans women report being groped by male guards and suicidal thoughts: ‘I’m punished for existing’

The Guardian is reporting that Trump is openly violating a court order, and has transferred multiple transgender women to men's facilities.

We know in Florida, transgender women are having their hair shorn, feminine items confiscated, and pulled off medication.

This is inhumane and illegal.

Have you ever talked to a disabled person who has spent YEARS applying for jobs and never gotten One call back?

No matter what job or industry tried?

I have.

If you haven't and you think Social Security is welfare, I hope one day you learn why it's called Well fare, human decency matters.

Painting over DC’s Black Lives Matter Plaza and stripping the name is this administration literally saying that to them Black lives do not matter.

All the more reason we need to fight for Black lives everywhere, all the time, even more.

The R-word is back. But why? : It's Been a Minute Over the past few years, Brittany has noticed the resurgence the R-word - a word that otherwise left the cultural lexicon. And while that's troubling in and of itself, its return may also have larger ...

Hey everyone!

I’m on NPR’s “It’s been a minute” talking about the R word.

Yup! And this is why communication studies are going to be tantamount. It’s not just talking it is literally the ability to construct and deconstruct messaging looking for giveaways as to tone, political spin and power dynamics not just in what is being said, but who is saying it.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

Free Sudan,

There’s a lot of advice going around about growing your own food, moving off grid, having a bug out plan etc.

These are valuable activities to prepare for climate change & fascism, but out of reach for many disabled people.
